It’s not, it’s just droany. I still sing it but it’s just I dunno … droany 😂 not the sort of chant you get everyone going with. Then again you can’t with our fans in general. 

It’s probably one of the best chants for getting everyone going.

Just watching WHU v Bournemouth. I would imagine there are 60k there but it's like a morgue, sounds more like 60

I ain’t watching it, has the stadium half emptied?

be worth exploring similar ideas in the Kop with safe standing the main factor

Peter Ray added: "Should have done it years ago. All teams need a 'noisy' end like the kop and the holte end etc.

Lowe Esteem added: "First and foremost there should always be a proper home end. That's what so many of us wanted from day one at St Mary's."

 

Imagine Susan Whelan ever coming out with this

And what I've been saying for years.  The problem arises when clubs move grounds.  It seems like the clubs in England take this opportunity to eliminate any such 'end'.  But now they realise fans want it, players want it, managers want it , and so some relent.

How’s the atmosphere sounding? Few sites are tweeting about a pyro being set off  should be more of it 

[Joe_1992]

Love that pyro 

[ShepshedFox1884]

Good today wasn’t the loudest at times but very consistent 

[Batfink77]

Enzo's Stoke post match comments say it all.  He says he loves playing away, loves the away fan support.  Even he won't say home support is sh@% but his emphasis on loving away support and then zero comment on home is his professional way of saying just that. 

[MattFox]

Stoke away always delivers for some reason

 

one place we always turn up

[RonnieTodger]

Bit quiet in the first half but very good in the second 

[Nolucklcfc]

Second was decent. 

[Guest David Oldfields Gate]

 These three chants made me chuckle today:

 

"Do you ever see your kids, doooyooo ever see your kids"

 

"Ten more beers, ten more beers, Hamza Choudhury"

 

"He drives when he wants, he drives when he wants, Hamza Choudhury, he drives when he wants"

 

 

Good fun today. 

[niyaminski]

Sounded great today.

East stand renamed to Jamie Vardy stand please!! 😃

Classic away end in the second half. 

Anyone know what was written on the banner towards the bottom of the stand at full time?

In Enzo we trust 

Rudkin out 

[BenTheFox]

Second half away end was brilliant. Even the first half wasn't bad. 

[Spudulike]

I want to see the whole team do this, and Enzo, and the fans 

 

 

[Raj]

Enjoyed it today😁

Bottom.left row 7 and it was wet but worth it!!!

[MS0204]

Looking at various clips of that pyro, it looked as if some people wasn’t amused.. there wasn’t any steward attention was there? The European fixtures where the whole end is lit up is something else, yet the English can’t take in so much as a plastic bottle

Mrs Raj isn’t going to be convinced by that argument. 

[bobtickle]

Sorry not read the thread, controversial comment maybe, firstly 100% respect to ufs, but i think the split to that corner of the ground away from next to the away fans has created two quiet pockets and has resulted in a worst atmosphere. Not taking anything away from them as they are the only ones trying to create an atmosphere. Just seems like the result has been a bit of an own goal to me.

The only thing that's got anyone going in the West Stand this century is Fifty Shades Of Grey

Football has a problem, a massive problem. 
 

 

Just look at the gaping chasm of empty seats. 
 

This is a nation that is rapidly falling out of love with the live game, a nation of clubs who no longer value fans. 
 

“Football is nothing without fans”, and yet clubs and television think they can cope - they can’t.  You can argue about league position and the time of the goals, but today’s match saw a plethora of red chairs lying vacant from the off. 
 

Honestly, if this isn’t addressed, if real fans aren’t encouraged, professional football dies. The connection has been ruptured.
 

Warning bells are sounding - albeit quietly…and completely silent at 85 minutes.
