  1. not sure I agree. first half was good, because we were all over them and you could sense it was only a matter of time before we got a goal or two. second half things didn't get going until after we scored our second. I'd argue the start of the second half and after their goal were key moments, but the atmosphere was poor. doesn't help people take 15 minutes to get back to their seat after HT like. overall it was good, but I think the main issue is that it's just too reflective of whatever it happening on the pitch. if we're on top, creating chances, pressing defenders etc the crowd get into it and are loud and supportive. which is class, but not every game is like that so we need to do a bit more.
  2. wouldn't be surprised if he knew exactly what he was doing. he's an ugly, fat, spiteful manbaby
  3. any time I'm exposed to a large number of our fans and their opinions/behaviour I always feel like I'm on an entirely different planet. easy to forget that this place is a total echo-chamber. aye same, although it's encouraging that most people would back it, as long as it doesn't affect them of course I think it goes without saying they're going to convert the Strawberry corner. but the point about them needing to poll all fans is absolutely spot on, they need to understand the demand. the corner alone isn't enough, that only solves the clubs health and safety headache. I hope this is about more than that, but like you Guv I'm not confident.
  4. who's there from the club? Ealesy?
  5. the sooner Burn is out of this team, the better. it must be impossible playing as a winger in front of him. it’s a myth he’s a good defender as well, he gets done regularly. can someone just tell Wilson there’s a last minute World Cup in the summer and Southgate is in the stands watching him? cheers.
  6. nope. do you sit in the corner by any chance?
  7. what the fuck does Isak need to do to get a start? persisting with an out of form, ageing Wilson is incredibly frustrating. Isak is the future, he needs starts.
  8. don't forget the best one of the lot... SHOES OFF IF YOU LOVE THE TOON
  9. did everyone get sent this survey? ST in the Gallowgate and haven't received anything from the club at all.
  10. Yeah, the Palace and Leeds ones were decent. there's a QPR one, too. and the classic Liverpool one when Rodgers was there being handsy with all the players.
  11. never understood this. why wouldn't you want us to do this? what are the negatives? genuine question btw, not being an arse! I can't wait, personally. have watched all of these types of things, every All or Nothing, Hard Knocks, Drive to Survive etc there's been some belters. always found behind the scenes stuff fascinating, from any industry tbh but sport in particular. it's a great way to get fans engaged and to bring in new (global) ones. which I suppose might be one of the reasons people won't want us doing this? reality is, that's unavoidable and will happen with a bit of on-field success, regardless.
  12. was thinking about this earlier, actually. whether or not two smaller safe standing/singing sections would work. strawberry corner & leazes east. get some competition going! the east stand can just turn their hearing aids off if it gets too loud
  13. aye I think Eales will be key in this endeavour. he's clearly engaged and values the fans opinions
  14. surprised to hear there was bother. the only Man Utd fans I seen all weekend were the ones heading for the tube straight after the final whistle
  15. Big River

    Dan Burn

    preface this with the obligatory "I like Dan Burn". but I can't wait until he's out the team get Tiggs back in asap pls Ed
  16. bit hypocritical though, considering TOON is the only thing that makes it unique to us done properly I think it could be quite good. a bit Valerenga if it was slower and properly timed. I honestly don't know what the solution is. I know Arsenal worked with a fan group to take steps in improving the atmosphere, and it seems to have helped. can anyone who was down at the Emirates this season confirm? there's an article about it here: https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21144366/arsenal-emirates-atmosphere-pints-anthem/
  17. Isak one was nicked from Spurs
  18. class photos! great to hear everyone has had a good time. what a city, eh?!
  19. last I’ll say on this because I don’t want to be a broken record. but people think it’s enough to turn up and wave a flag for a few minutes. our support has stopped being support and it’s turned into a spectacle. yes it looks brilliant and it’s great for the players to walk out to, but our work as supporters doesn’t just stop there. it’s astonishing to me because we’ve seen first hand (last season) what getting behind the team during the match does. it unquestionably helps the lads and is detrimental to the opposition. people won’t want to hear it, and it’s heartbreaking to say, but we let them down yesterday.
  20. dont forget making things up to fit your agenda
  21. atmosphere was fucking garbage there was genuinely about 6 of us in 134 trying to get songs going when the rest were just stood like zombies.
