They have well and truly run their course I think, they are left lying around and not just inside the stadium, you see them discarded all over the place, the noise they make is awful especially when paired with the cringeworthy music that blarts out when we score and after the match, out of interest what was the first game they were ever supplied ?

West Ham April 2015, first game of the great escape. 2-1 win,  king in the last few mins. Although I think I recall them being there as a one off for the Thursday night Watford home playoff game 2013..?

Think that's about correct.

Turn the PA system off 15 minutes before kick off like they do at Old Trafford 


Says it all that the club that’s ownership is in open warfare with its core fanbase does loads more than we do in terms of supporter engagement 

 

This. They hounded out the chief executive and still are able to get what they want in terms of sections and general fan consensus.

 

We supposedly are one of the best ‘well run clubs’ but we have zero fan engagement and are just being dictated by nobodies who have no connection to the city and club. 
 

Fight for what we want before it’s too late. Not asking for much are we.

Every Monday night in the 1990's, 6pm, Radio Leicester:

 

"So that was Steve from Beaumont Leys asking how to improve the atmosphere at Filbert street, next on the line we have Andy from Long Eaton, good evening Andy...."

That was after they made the Kop all-seater and built the Carling Stand. That was end of the Filbert Street that we grew up with.

Would be equally as toss. None of them have ever paid to stand on a terrace. Have little experience of fan culture.

...you do not have to put your finger in a fire to know it is going to hurt!!!

The mere fact that they are addressing the issue, is half the battle won. Let us see what happens before we write off their contributions.

Worse atmosphere at away game I've ever been too. Hardly any fans were chanting much even before we conceded the goals. 

Bizarre really. It was decent in the concourse for the 15 minutes leading up to kick off.... in the stands it was hard work getting anything going.

 

I hope the cretin who ran on the pitch swinging is proud of himself - made us all look like a right bunch of ****s.

That's what confused me the most. Everyone was going mental in the concourse and then after about 5 minutes into the game hardly anyone is chanting.

After around 15 years home and away I’m throwing the towel in with away games. 
Never thought the day would come but we’ve changed too much, just ends full of old women or kids that give it massive in the concourse to show their mates on Snapchat then go quiet in the stand. 
Cant even blame the result cause we was silent at 0-0. 

As I was walking across the row to my seat today an old lady asked to see my ticket cause she didn’t think I was in the right area.
I politely pointed out that she’s not a steward and that she should keep her ****ing nose out. 
 

We’re beyond repair in my eyes so a P1 will be lost in due course.

Went away in the Jock Wallace era fantastic every away game Don’t go now from what I see on the TV

it is full of silver haired folk and looks like they have turned up on a community bus , but unfortunately

this is what the club appears to want They make it very difficult for many fans to get away tickets

Can there not be a mix of ppl at the away games?? Old, kids,women etc?? It doesnt all have to be yobs that give the club a bad name 

Away ends full of old women questioning if I’m going to the right seat because she had to take her blanket off her knee to let me past and young lads watching everything through a phone screen isn’t what makes me tick im afraid.

So you last went in 1981 ? No offence how can you have a opinion on away support when you’ve openly admitted you haven’t been in over 40 years ?

My observations are backed up by the majority complaining here every week.The clappers , the lack of availability of away tickets ,it is attempting to change and has altered the fan base.There used to be buses organised by pubs all around the city to away games It is sanitised this day
