Not sure what you want me to say to that.

Ive indicated at times it can struggle.

Im not sure its position is such a big problem, I think the make up of it having folk there who won’t join in much is the bigger one.

Agree, I think people who were in there originally haven’t moved and so that’s a big problem

Yep. We should do the same and move to e singing section next to the away end  but UFS don’t want to hear it. Imagine that lot at the other end of the ground, wouldn’t have been anywhere near the same atmosphere. Having vocal home fans next to the away end is what works 

They literally trialed a singing section in M1 next to the away fans several times and it was dog wank

Cov forum saying we were alright.

It was decent in most parts first half. Lulls second half when they started to get going. 

 

Huge amount of posturing after our goal though, our row at the back of block 11 emptied out as we scored as everyone ran over to the seg.

Respect your opinion also, can I ask why you don’t like the idea? I just don’t think it’s working at the moment and having the banter with away fans really helps imo. 

I understand what you're saying, however...alot of those European grounds we've visited the last few years didn't need their ultras next to the away fans in order to sing

 

Pretty sure roma fans/ultras sing regardless of opposition team or where they are in relation to the away fans (they are at opposite goal ends)

Most English grounds don’t have their singing section next to the away fans anyway

Worth a conversation at least 

Already happened and there's no plans for relocating it. UFS not wanting to relocate isn't the only reason why.

 

The "surround the away fans" arguement was busted against Brighton in the cup ,L1 didn't want to know.

The section being next to the away end would be worth it about 0.5% of the time. The rest, especially against good away ends, would make the task even harder.

 

Do people really think Cov's singers by the away end are as good against anyone else in this league? They're heartily admitting that today was the biggest home game since they left Highfield Road.

People raising valid and fair points here. I just don’t see how it’s gonna improve if there isn’t some change. It needs to either get bigger or move but that’s just my opinion. 

It improves by people who don't want to sing leaving the section and those who want to, joining the section. UFS got a section after 8 years of hard work, it isn't meant to be the yellow wall after 2 years. 

 

It'll only get better

I have to say - I used to go loads of away games 2010 - 2015.. a few more up until 2014 with great escape including West Brom away. I haven’t been to an away game until today for 8 years. I cannot believe how bad it is now (today) v back then.. I used to lose my voice after every away game even if we lost. Today I sat row N so fairly low down and was full of fans gorping up towards the top as if to say “start the chants”. Even when we scored there were no limbs.. I had to grab the people below me to even celebrate it was unbelievably bad. I’m actually glad I don’t spend what I use too going to away days compared to what I used to.. more chanting/bravado in the concourse and post match compared

to what happens in the stands.. a real eye opener for me today for someone who used to go a lot compared to now..hopefully it will get better but I doubt it tbh. 
 

a lot of people on here give the old people stick and point the finger at them for not creating the away atmosphere but looking around today it was a lot of young people who weren’t arsed.. pathetic

You technically can’t get a section in those areas that people want. It’s £50+ to move in alongside L1 and the other side requires attendance of a child. 
 

Family stand has moved, it’s a free for all in P now, stick em in there!

I don’t go to as many away as I would like but went today and it seemed there were many that were more interested in giving it the biggun, gesturing to the home fans assuming it made them feel massive, than actually watching the game. Embarrassing actually. Cov weren’t much better mind you. 
 

but those that were making noise and singing did the best they could so fair play to them. 

Can’t believe these were next to each other.. there’s the query with the perfect answer

Concourse massive out in force today. Amazes me how so many leave their voices at the bar. The end itself was average at best.

Been like that for years. Can remember Doncaster away the year Schmeichel dropped a clanger. Concourse was buzzing thought we'd be in for a treat as soon as we got inside the stadium. Turned out to be one of the worst away ends I've ever been in, so quiet. It's like everyone expends all their energy in the hour leading up to the game then are completely knackered for kick off. Very odd!
