  Never had the pleasure of going to a Southampton v chelsea fixture ( too far down on train i guess ) ,but that 

end behind the goals in that photo was a Odd looking shape for a bit of terrace . 
 

seem to recall coventry having a Odd away end aswell .

saying that the away end at Wigan ,Springfield Park was Odd for its lack of terrace and muddy slope where it 

was a terrace / field effort . Keep well away if its pissing it down 

 
Wembley, Sunday 23rd March 1986.
