Eddie Betts Pocket

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I'm still waiting for all the howling northerly winds that we were supposedly going to be copping every week because of the design of the stadium?

Northerlys in winter, shouldn't be long now, with climate change and stuff

Also it's such a flat atmosphere down that northern end, especially the Eddie Betts Pocket. Need a fully enclosed stadium.

Anyone got pics or footage of the crowd when Eddie was lining up for the last goal?

Only in my mind. Awesome moment. The view from the Riverbank stand of that whole pocket bowing down for Eddie is imprinted forever. Then he slotted it and made it even better.

I was behind it on the hill, couldn't really see it

Is it just me, or is the dude in the black hoodie looking directly at the camera?

EDDIE!!

Those last two goals were D Jarman-esque.

That Eddie chant tho! Didn't quite get the phone out quick enough to record! Seriously epic!

What a fan favourite he's become. In that second half the stadium was electric every time he was even near the ball.

He seems to have a habit of coming good towards the end of the game. I wonder if it's just that the other defenders are more tired and less likely to cover him/take the ball cleanly? But he has a very nice habit of giving goals away in the first half, and then getting them back in the second.

Stirs around my feelings that photo.

Great to see kids in frame.
You can just imagine them telling their Grandkids about the day Hall of Famer Sir Edward BEtts brought the house down

 

[Allefgib]

Confirmed by Sando in his presser.
Amazing goals.
