Stadium atmosphere

The goal music will be incredible against Rotherham

The club is making so many errors they’ll probably bring back Chelsea dagger

Can’t believe some fans were clapping at the end

Some of our fans are absolute NPCs. 

 

They'd start applauding if they got home to find their spouse bonking someone else.

The club likes to try to give the impression it listens to feedback - but the entire reason we are in this abject mess is that it doesn’t, and hasn’t for a few years. Way to many self satisfied incompetents running departments staffed by forelock tugging arse kissing incompetents. They hide from genuine criticism.

Just to go back to this, I was basing that original comment on a recent experience at the club. Although I came away with a positive impression, it didn't represent the club as a whole - I perhaps should have been clearer on that.

The last few home and away games have been a much better atmosphere ... despite us hardly setting the world alight.

 

Whether we stay up (unlikely) or go down (more likely), I'm just glad that the morale-sapping fraud has left our club.   The last 2 years have been some of the most boring, tedious, utterly stultifying dross ever.

Lol... Really, were you around for Bryan Hamilton, David Pleat, Gordon Lee, Craig Levein, Ian Holloway et al ?

I don't often go away, but as with most away support it's mostly the hardcore and the support is always good and vocal. 

 

I know we always sell out and you can't get a ticket unless you're an Away STH. 

Actually that isn’t correct. We travelled from Canada and got 5 tickets for the Leeds game based solely on the fact that we were International Members. I was astounded that we could manage to do that…especially for such a critical game. I can only believe that there was very low demand.

I certainly was.   And whilst the quality of those sides was worse than today's, they didn't spend most of their time slowly rolling the ball sidewards and backwards.   They were just good old-fashioned shite.

Highlight of the season was certainly the announcement for people to sit down and the whole stadium rose up.

last few away ends have been pretty decent all considering. Hopefully carries on for the foreseeable.... even away at plymouth.

You're in the middle of f**** nowhere

Not meaning to labour these points but with the likely scenario of relegation, it's the thought that in these two remaining home matches we're not even going to retain a level of respect with the awful clappers and goal music. Aside from that though, obviously hope as fans we still give everything on Monday in spite of the predicament and overall feeling towards the club - granted it's become more difficult being as there is now a general consensus of how this season will end for us.

Wonder what prompted that? Not heard that announcement all season or for recent previous seasons either (unless I wasn't listening). Didn't seem there were more standing up than usual. Perhaps the club have appointed a new head of safety that's never been to a match before. Not sure if other clubs fans are told to sit down.

Other clubs have moved with the curve, either turning a blind eye because they know they can't win the battle or actively working to help more fans stand safely. Leicester are still stuck in the dark ages of 10-15 years ago and still have the daft idea that parts of the ground could get closed die to persistent standing.

 

That said, even allowing for the fact that attitude prevails behind closed doors the announcement was way beyond the pale. Control freakery of the highest order.

People stood up in the Family Stand and our H&S manager getting embarrassed in front of the coppers in the control room

Just someone being jobsworth to the highest order, nothing else.

 

Hoping we ensure survival now on the last fixture, prompting a mass pitch invasion if our supporters are up to it.

The pampered pansies in the King power or the Premier league could n't cope with apologizing to the fans ..... ESPECIALLY if the West stand started Tutting !!

Why don't the club help the fans create a atmosphere, instead of a few scattered  flags around the ground let everyone have one and a scarf like away games where they get freebiesfans can do their bit to raise the players.

Cost now. A 30,000 seat tifo or scarf is big money.

Atmosphere will not make a difference if the players decide they are not bothered yet again, just have this feeling if a goal goes in early most will hide again, getting rid of the ball like a hot potato  and hoping someone else can do something.
