    Think it's fare to say when the players emerge from the tunnel they will be greeted with a cauldron of noise and colour.
    Just hope it lives up to everyone's expectations.
    The Valley Parade faithful need to make this an opening day to remember for all the right reasons.
    Get behind every single player in Claret and Amber and no scapegoating.
    Let's cheer the lads on to victory.

    Thats a good question Dave,because a lot of fans used to change ends at half time,so City were always attacking an end with our fans in it.

    I'll be sat in the Sunwin laughing my socks of with regards the flag, holding coloured cards up is difficult enough for some.

    I’m generally concerned that this will fry the brains to the point of spontaneous combustion for the two blokes that sit behind me in the bottom kop.

    Fair dos to the City vent lads for trying to create atmosphere, but I hope we don’t have them cards again. Spent most the game dodging paper airplanes and some scroat threw one with force at an old man and you could see he was shook up, plus all the scruffs chucking them on the pitch like Leeds scum. Hope to not see them again, some of our ‘fans’ and such displays don’t mix.

    Whilst it was harmless paper, fell right into Donny’s hands nevertheless. The keeper just made a meal of picking it all up.

    Before the disaster it was ALWAYS kicking to the Bradford End second half, when we returned to VP it switched to kicking towards the Kop second half.

    I never paid to change ends.

    We just walked around the wall on the crowd side. (The one I remember Alec Smith kicking the opposing winger over during the game!).

    We all have our take on Geoffrey Richmond's time at Valley Parade but without doubt he dragged the club into the 21st century, I never thought I'd see us in a stadium that we now have.

    Club fine incoming surely the tifo cards will be construed as missiles encroaching the field of play,.
    I also think there will be an investigation into the ridiculous flare throwing by Doncaster fans at the full time whistle.
    Other than that hat's off to the City Vent lads, great effort and very colourful.

    You wouldn’t stick that up your jumper at kick off!

    Hopefully it will be brought out every home game just as the players are coming out of the tunnel. Awesome sight for the opponents to walk on to! Gulp!

    Until the kop was redeveloped (post 1985), we preferred to attack the Bradford End in the second half.

    Happy days. Looking back it was an absolute dump if we were honest.
