"The Yank" does another blog on the Derby

[WhiteHawk]

Paul Gerald, the American bloke who was at Hillsborough in September and captured the best video that has ever been uploaded to YouTube, was back in Sheffield for the game on Friday and has done another blog on it.

"I’d been in touch with Sheffield United fans for weeks, because of a quirky combination of timing and technology, and they had been telling me all those weeks that I’d never seen anything like what I would see under the Friday night lights at “Beautiful Downtown Bramall Lane.”

Thinking of the other thread on the Kop and then reading the blog, it is a great sight when full – but removing the columns whenever that eventually happens will improve just the basic look of it immediately, as highlighted by this very rough photoshop effort on the Yank’s view from the corner. Stretching back a bit further too, it would be quite the sight.

That photo shows how bad the rake of the stand is. Not really seen it from that angle before.

Love the video. Good write-up too.

It could never have lived up to the first game. Impossible.

Really good write up, captures the entire spirit of a Sheffield Derby.

Love the excitement that he had for the GCB, just a pity we didn't score, the roof would've been off!
