Since when did we stop singing Howay The Lads and Blaydon Races absolutely tragic https://x.com/1968Tv/status/1627568947108225025?s=20

They’re not to concerned about the riff raff from their seats in the Milburn.
-
Most clubs seem to have a large hardcore of fans which stand at home, regardless of whether there’s railed seating or not. Our support just reeks of fair weather types who just rock up and aren’t really arsed, I include season ticket holders in this, a large proportion sat like mutes during the Ashley reign happy just for an afternoon out. The away support is also on its knees now with pitiful atmospheres in Milan and Dortmund. I’ve seen every excuse rolled out in this thread re nerves, folk to pissed and even being tired walking to the top tier in the San Siro. There might be some mitigating factors such as the random ballot system, but the truth in the main is our support is a myth and just not really that good these days.
-
There just as much to blame and responsible for the non support at Wembley.
-
I think Wor Flags have masked the atmosphere issue for a long time, the truth is after the display ends the place falls flat anyway 90% of the time. There’s a real lack of supporter culture at St James away from the strawberry corner, from lack of noise to non existent song book. Whilst the current owners must accept some blame, I’m not against their criticism if it opens up some dialogue with fans on how to improve the atmosphere.

You have a point the twitter world seem to be blaming the tourists, but it was this lot that sat in silence at Wembley waving their flags like mutes.
-
It’s a soulless experience glad the owners are starting to realise. Great result but can’t say I’m that bothered that I missed being there at all.

Would be a real coup but would imagine his agents are doing the rounds.

Got a feeling it’s going to be a Bobby Dazzler this new home shirt.
-
We don’t need to take punts anymore though surely, his wages wouldn’t be cheap and you just tie your hands further FFP wise with a perma crock.

Only thing Kinnear ever got right was his analysis of Bird.

They could always go and play in the Irish league saying they hate everything about being British.

Fuck off you whingeing scouse cunt, the voting was always tailored so the big 6 could veto anything they didn’t want boo fucking hoo. https://x.com/Carra23/status/1727019724771655966?s=20

Don’t forget those bitter Spuds.
-
Dan Roan say no more absolute cunt of the highest order.
-
Mbeumo would probably be a very useful signing, but think we’ll be targeting younger players with our new Dutch super scout. Players with profiles like Roony Bardghji, Sesko, Diomande and Vermeeren will be high on agenda.
-
It’ll be this there more bothered about than loaning players from Saudi, sounds completely unworkable and unrealistic by the sounds of it. Club will pick the battle worth fighting, the evidence keeps mounting though in terms of competitors colluding and restricting our ability to trade.

Getting linked with another Brazilian youngster who looks like will be leaving Santos in January. Looks a very exciting talent going off this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lblVX5-7wy0

Next 2 Windows in no particular order - Keeper CB loads of options but would love a top tier one like Silva. CF Sesko DM Kone RW Nico Williams Still think we need to find that clever player like Gundogan or Silva to break teams down, hard to find though but would be high up on the list alongside above if we could identify one.
-
Some of our fans are thick and says a lot that they’re the worst thing about the club presently.
-
Goosebumps, the constant Howay the lads and the Blaydon Races sang properly.
-
Probably why it was seen as half decent, the current bar is so low. We definitely need some original stuff though I agree, the Bruno in the middle and Gordon song are hideous. Ive got an awful feeling it’s all a lost cause though, the support seems very fair weather and only interested in singing if where winning. The days of supporting the team are gone in the main, if the other teams support is loud they just don’t bother, or they’d rather video and take pictures. Its a real pitiful situation for us lot who’ve experienced different over the years, but maybe time to just accept it for what it is and accept it’s now either youngins who can’t/won’t sing, or folk who prefer to sit in silence like it’s a trip to the theatre. Didn’t even apply for Man U I’m done with the whole thing now it’s a depressing experience.

Short sighted if we bring him back, despite injuries needs to spend full season with those horrible cunts. -
Aberdeen had a reputation years ago of never singing at home, think ours is sadly heading that way by looks of it. The away support is in serious peril as well.
