Heron Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Can't criticize it too much or Level 7. But the your support is f***ing s*** angle is completely moronic. No defence for that. I agree, fair enough to the likes of Wigan or Fulham in the Premier' but not to the likes of Plymouth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 It's not "fair enough" to those clubs at all though. The 500 or so fans that travel up here for those clubs are more likely the ones that watched them struggle in the bottom-tier 10-15 years ago against the likes of Rochdale, Bury & Grimsby week in, week out.

timnufc22 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 The main problem regarding any negative atmosphere in the ground is the groaning & abuse dished out to our own players as soon as someone isnt closed down, or a pass is mis-placed. I can understand it sometimes when Ameobi is jogging around not looking interested one bit, but not with with every player. I really dont think singing that song has any effect on the players, especially when you consider they hear what I've just said on a regular basis, and personally I dont want Ashley to ever feel like he's accepted back again.

Guest north shields lad Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 If i had my way we would sing it for 90 minutes. Sometime in march we may be having a protest under the FSF banner. On the same day manchester united, liverpool, portsmouth, stockport, and oldham are also having a protest at there matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzzieMandias Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 You can sing it until doomsday, but it won't make the slightest difference to what happens re Ashley. Will it lift the players during the game? Of course not. But at least you can kid yourselves you're "doing something". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I do love how a lot of those who sit in Level 7 consider themselves to be better than the rest of us because they can knock out a juvenile chant every so often. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do we consider ourselves better when those who aren't in Level 7 are the ones criticising? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the amount of times people from level 7 go on about how much they sing and the rest of the ground are shit at backing their team doesn't mean you think you are better supporters then? Fair enough I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough I suppose. Depends what you consider to be backing your team I guess. Financially those in level 7 are worse. In years of going to the match I guess those in Level 7 are probably worse. But in vocal support, I would say that Level 7 is better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's not condescending then please tell me what is? Maybe its someone writing with the frustration of how one section of the ground sings through-out most of the game, backing the team, and the rest of the ground rarely choose to join in? Maybe as someone who is passionate about Nufc it is bloody annoying that a lot of the supporters are more interested in moaning & groaning at any mistake than encouraging & supporting? Its fair enough you get a condescending impression of that quote, but why pretend that what I've said isnt the case, because it is. And it is ironic that the 'get out of out club song', a song which has been accused of creating a negative atmosphere (which is fair enough if thats your opinion), comes from the only part of the ground that seems to offer susatined positive encouragement through-out the game - with a lot of other fans choosing to go "AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!!!!" when a player isnt being closed down in our half.

I never once said anything about the so-called negative atmosphere created from up there, more the fact that there seems to be a holier-than-thou attitude from a lot of folk up there because they sing "get out of our club" and "your support is fucking shit" a few times during the match.
