Stadium atmosphere

[DennisNedry]

Atmosphere was very good tonight in terms of volume. 

 

Died off a little in the last 10 minutes as the players ran out of steam and Everton started to look the more likely to score.

 

The song variety is really poor at the moment though. 'We love you' and 'Vichai had a dream' on repeat all game is better than quiet, but it's still shit.

Ive seen lads say it has to stoop that low to get more on board with actually singing.

Really good tonight, singing section was great.. only thing that pissed me off a bit was the announcement for everyone to sit down as people couldn’t see. Sorry but I don’t think anyone in the section gave two hoots. Great atmosphere tonight, let’s hope it’s just as good when Liverpool come to town in a couple of weeks.. 

[Matt]

Got told to sit down for the penalty by the bloke behind me. Piss off.

 

Perhaps he was right in hindsight.

Felt quieter in the second half, whole ground bouncing first though.

 

... and yeah that "this is an all seater stadium" announcement received the correct response

Think I only heard vichai had a dream twice.. definitely in need of a freshen up though.. 

 

still ain’t cottoned on to the home and away chant but sorry, that ain’t going to lift off.. it’s like it’s one verse so everyone can join in but it’s a ruination of what could be a decent song

The chap it came from will have really hated it too.

That was triggered by a stadium announcement asking fans to sit down 😂

Lol.....He had more chance of that happening than me growing hair on my shiny bald head.

Probably enforce some new draconian measure because the announcement got the mick taken out of for 5 mins

[Dan LCFC]

It'd be good if it wasn't for those ****ing clappers.

[CosbehFox]

That announcement getting short shrift was simply chefs kiss

It’s embarrassing that the club is making tannoy announcements for people to sit down when nearly every other club is introducing safe standing areas.

Out of touch is an understatement.

It's not embarrassing at all. The announcement will just be to cover their backs in the unlikely event someone topples over the seat in front, hurts themselves or someone else and the club gets sued.

 

Agree about the standing areas.

Was having a good laugh at this all the way home. When it was immediately pointed out to her that it says on the website kids under 2 aren't allowed in she said "but it says nothing about the away fans" . Idiot.

As if she's taken a photo of said baby to show evidence to strangers on twitter 

People are weird.

This was the family they kept calling out on the PA for 😂

[StanSP]

Even some Everton fans on the responses to her tweet aren't in her corner

 

Bizarre. 

[stourbridgefox]

I think the problem with atmosphere is there are too many people cringing about what others are doing. 

 

If people enjoy singing a song, then let them do it. Likewise, clappers mean the old, young and the shy can join in and make some noise. 

 

If we need rid of something, it's the self-appointed support police.

As some of the more intelligent ones implied ....  it's a difficult call.    The trouble is ... If the toddler gets injured, even if accidentally crushed by their own fans, you know what's going to happen.   And it's not going to be a "oh well, never mind, these things happen in life."

 

[Munshi]

Clappers are fvcking terrible, just people mindlessly banging away at them out of tune all game. Gives people an excuse not to actually sing too so I’m not buying the whole ‘atleast they’re doing something’ argument that gets chucked about

Honestly some people are nuts. Who the hell thinks it's a good idea to take a 6 month old to a bloody football match. Especially in an away end!

reading the responses the best one for me is someone asking how a 6 month old has enough priority points to get a ticket 

 

Good job they arent Leicester fans no way he would have the correct ID to pick up his ticket!

People were actually trying to clap them along to the melody of Hey Jude yesterday. Like, come on...

Yep. Jim was just doing his job so I'm hoping eventually she will see sense as to why this call was taken. 

 

She has no business taking a baby that young to a football game.
