I enjoyed saturdays game, it was an entertaining encounter and it was refreshing to see Norwich come and have a go. They brought plenty of fans aswell, the crowd was a decent one helped by offers in the North Stand. Myself and my mate were surrounded by quite a few tourists which consisted of about 20 Japanese and several other Europeans and it was nice to see.
it is good to fill seats which would otherwise be empty and it keeps us warmer aswell keeping us away from the cold winter drafts that sweep across the otherwise empty seats. It was a bit strange because they were very excitable and many of them didn't seem to be following the game.
In one instance, just before Norwich were about to convert that free kick, two females in front of me were trying to take a photo of themselves with the pitch behind them and as they took the photo the ball went in, they were not bothered obviousley happy to get their facebook opportunity in, it pissed me off a little at the time because they didn't seem to take any notice that we had fell behind and I feared the worse for the Villa but, they were nice enough people and its good to see punters being given an incentive to attend matches it can only be good for the future if they re-visit.
Did anybody else come across such spectators?
