Match Atmosphere

[pedro111]

Great second half support. My voice is gone but it saddens me that the Blaydon Races has died a death....

[dave s]

Is there an Isak chant yet? I’ve only managed to get to a couple games and they were all early in season, before he came and was injured. Can’t say I’ve heard one watching on telly

the abba one but nobody seems to know the words so doubt it’ll ever catch on properly!

[NUFC91]

Only critiscism and big fucking one...people streaming out after 80 minutes...bunch of fucking arseholes, stay and clap lads off ffs.

 

I'm not wanting a pat on back but i moved to south for work in 2013 and some sunday games I drive 5 hours south straight after game but still stay to end but we've got fans leaving early to get into strawberry etc before its busy or best traffic is pathetic...rant over...

It's getting worse... Last week v spurs I reckon 5 to 10 thousand left when we were winning 6.1.

 

Stand up if you love the Toon (but walk out to be first at the bar!)

[Danh1]

Aye the walk out today was bizarre. Noticed it at 38 minutes too. I love a pint as much as anyone but fucking hell, you’re at the match, why miss a lot of it?

Might not help but if they stopped playing the shittest version ever recorded every week it might remind people its a passionate anthem it would be an improvement in itself. Some people will think that's what it is. A rhyhtmless tuneless eastern-european national anthem dirge

Aye this is a fair point. That version they play is horrible. 

[Lush Vlad]

Atmosphere sounded decent on the TV, I thought. 
 

Trolling us at this point with DJ Otzi. Hope someone else other than Wilson scores the winner/last goal next week.

Noise came through well on tv in the second half, and lasted the duration. There is a notable lack of animation in certain sections of the stands when we score and the camera pans round though, lots of smiley faces and polite applause. A bit of arm waving/ air punching/jumping about wouldn't go amiss

We’re not exactly that Leeds stand behind the goal for limbs. But I think our crowd get just as excitable as any when we score.
 

Maybe the day trippers and happy clappers have filtered back in a bit more. But have I always maintained and said to mates over the years. Compare the way our fans celebrate over a lot of clubs. It always seems a bit more passionate and not just standing and politely clapping like loads of London teams or clubs used to winning all the while. 
 

Maybe we’re getting too used to being good and got more into it when we were shit and it was unexpected?

[Disco]

Second half was class today.

[Holloway]

Aye fair enough the comparison to other crowds, I do enjoy Leeds going ballistic when they score I must say. Only get to a handful of home games but always have a good look around at the crowd when I do, and there are way too  many statues for my liking, and that includes young lads who just sit there in silence. If it's the Ashley effect that's numbed the fuck out of people then surely that's more reason to get excited/emotional at what we're witnessing now. I'll definitely be up for a standing ticket next season, even though the knees are creaking a bit

Leeds don't go ballistic. THIS is going ballistic. Watch until the end...

Thought the atmosphere was shit first half and excellent second half.

Actually was sang yesterday for the first time in any great numbers. 
 

There’s also the Dan Ashworth went to Spain song also but that’s only been sang at the away games so far.

[Heron]

As usual was sang far too fast, but then small pockets re-sang slower. Its catching on, just needs to be sung slower when it's quieter and it'll catch properly, except there's very little opportunity for that in the Strawberry Corner at present. Atmosphere may have been flat around the ground but the Strawberry Corner was fairly non stop or at least pockets of it.

[Ben]

Are we playing the national anthem next week ? 

[jack j]

Whats the Jacob Murphy song to that celtic tune?

Only bit I could catch was his mother comes from Birtley

Sounded like 2 people singing it in the corner, one nearer the gallowgate and one nearer the east stand

 

 

[pedro111]

I only go sporadically now but someone mentioned young lads not singing. There were two next to me yesterday about 17/18. They had old school shirts on so they must be fairly clued up but there was not a peep out of either. It's mad because when I was that age and younger I was gan radge.

Jacob Murphy

His mother comes from Birtley

They say he is a Geordie

And he is gonna score for Eddie's Magpies

 

[Repeat]

 

Was me singing nearer the East Stand, more than likely and probably Simon Fettes in the corner.

Actually heard some chants that I’ve not heard outside of away ends. I’m up in level 7 so couldn’t tell but it sounded like Strawberry corner.

 

“This club is my club” was particularly audible. Would be great for the home fans to expand their songbook a little.
