Am I right in thinking they won the toss and elected to switch ends?

If so, in doing that it meant they played the second half into the wind and away from their own fans (#World'sBest).

I assume I'm wrong, as that level of f**kwittery is too stupid to comprehend, but I'm going to need someone to confirm it because I'm sure that's what actually happened.

Who kicked off?

Oh I momentarily got all excited then, as I realised the answer would be in the BBC's 'live text updates':-

Kick Off

First Half begins.


But it isn't :lol:

Some teams do elect to do that . So that the home team are not attacking their own favoured fans side in the second half.

So I wasn't being stupid...

Yes we know.
I wonder just how many of those teams are stupid enough to do it on a day when they'd be playing the second half into a strong headwind and away from their own (greatest in the world) fans.
