Stadium atmosphere

We need Zero negativity on Sunday. Get behind the lads until the final whistle.

When I saw the flags etc as the players came out, I thought “ this is going to be a cauldron and our lot will roll over “, but for most the game they were quiet and you could hear us! So much for the passionate geordies and best fans  in the country. 

They never have been. Going right back to the 90s pre-Keegan. They get some sort of media-driven rep as being loud, eccentric nutters because a few of them get their bellies out when the temperature is -2 but the vast majority of their fanbase is just your standard sing-when-you're-winning type.

We can only hope that the majority of foxestalk don’t attend the game… as usual

And yet still - somehow - there will be claret & blue smoke bombs going off because someone evaded these top security specialists and through sheer cunning brought them in via....their pocket.

Absolute knackering going up all those stairs in the Leazes Stand though. Realise how unfit I am

We've got to give it all on Sunday. No complaining, no booing and no negativity.

There will be plenty of time for that if we lose.

 

As cringe as it sounds, we need to be the 12th man. We need to do everything we can to help the lads get a win.

Obviously. 

 

 

Get relegated though and everyone at this club deserves both barrels, not a little clap.

Went to Newcastle on Monday and I thought our fans were brilliant. We never really stopped singing, and a couple of Newcastle fans on Facebook said we were up there with the best away fans at St. James's park this season !

 

Re the issue of the steepness of their stand, a mate and I raced two other friends to the top.... they were going from ground floor to the top of the away stand in a lift, and we ran up the stairs.

 

I reached the top just as their lift opened, but saying that, I was in an oxygen tent for the rest of the match.

 

Sunday will be a 2016 style cauldron especially when we score and if we win.... It will be a crazy place if we still manage to stay up as well

As fans, we know what we have to do on Sunday…

And just remember, this is the last chance you'll get to join in with the starman and the maddison chants.

****in laughable that paragraph given their policy towards selling tickets this season 

[Clarkielcfc]

Both ends of the ground should be fully standing and absolutely bang up for it Sunday!!

Be lucky if the “kop” stood up if we scored a last minute winner to survive 

[Footballwipe]

I know we all want 90 mins fervent support but if we're 1-0 down after 40 minutes and Everton are 2-0 up at that point we know the ground will go either silent or toxic.

 

Sunday's atmosphere relies on us getting an early goal (or battering West Ham with attacking intent) and the Everton game remaining at least a draw/AFCB winning for as long as possible.

[Guest Fox99]

Let’s do this.

That's something to be happy about today then

I will give it the same support today as I always do from my seat. However, it almost feels like it's through gritted teeth as they really don't deserve us. So annoying that we're even in this position. This team has lost its connection whatever the outcome.

The kop never stood up when we played Everton in 2016 so no chance we will get a standing full kop end.

Stewards will probably be on them if they did.

Its the sniffer dogs for me. It's basically just like a 'bring your pet to work day'.

 

Absolutely no way in a month of Sundays those dogs are sniffing anything other than their own arse.

The old gits would be moaning before a steward got close, I’m smack bang centre of the kop, always stood  last couple of rows at away days and would stand at home but don’t want to relocate.
