Until we get rid of them nothing is gonna change. If that were true, then the league cup games would have the best atmospheres of the lot. But they don’t.

Wandy Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Lots of chatter on social media about Leeds' brilliant atmosphere at Elland Road last night. Interesting how looking at this video of it, & the demographic seems to be widespread kids in their 20s and early 30s. An all new extended SJP should allow us to get this kind of crowd into our stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafalove Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 That’s class. But if I’m honest I was thinking the opposite in regards to demographic. Seems to be mostly blokes between the ages of 20-60. The demographic most likely to create an atmosphere. I think at James’ has more wide spread demographic with a few more elderly people there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to the point though and you’re right to get any atmosphere back we need more groups of younger lads, not families and tourists, but fucking match going lads who go to the pub have a few pints then get behind the lads. It’s killing our fanbase and worry the likes of Silverstone will kill our support for good. SJP used to be one of the most feared radged up places to come on its day, we can barely muster a murmur for the big games these days it’s embarrassing.

Big Jow Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 It was shite until they turned it around on Friday tbf. I’ve no idea what is wrong with ours. I can only come up with a guess it’s expectations. Our best atmospheres (particularly at home) are when we feel aggrieved, our atmospheres under Ashley were also largely built on unified anger. Now people expect to turn up and see us win. When we don’t, they’re more flat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack j Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Think this will be the most interesting out of all the ones they've done. I don't think a lot of people think there is a problem with the atmosphere inside SJP. Be interesting to see what's suggested Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Its been swings and roundabouts there like anywhere else and using an example when its good. Its been alternately dead/toxic and a den a few times since the 80s and don't recall anybody holding it up in the post hooligan days as anything special until very recently. Same with Forest. Could very easily at any point in the PL era find terrible atmospheres there (specifically recall a West Ham game around 2001, think Fowler scored) They're the joint best away fans at SJP over my time though, with Man United.

Interpolic Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Shout-out to the fat cunt sat next to me in Leazes West corner today. Arrived 20 minutes late, absolutely steaming. Proceeded to loudly talk to himself the whole match, calling various players "not good enough", groaning when we passed backwards and shouting "pathetic" when a more adventurous pass didn't come off. Mercifully went quiet towards the end as his half time pint started to wear off. The biggest shock of the match was that he stayed til the end, presumably cos he couldn't be bothered to get off his fat useless arse. Whoppers like this make the day worse for everyone around them.

gbandit Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Was in the bar 1892 Milburn section today. Absolutely dead. All game long, I joined in a bunch of songs that were being sung from the Gallowgate only a couple of murmurs from others in the entire game. All ages really Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) There’s a large group of season ticket holders who would benefit from having their tickets taken off them, even if just temporarily, as the enforced absence might rekindle some enjoyment from going to games Posted this in the match thread but will stick in here too Special mention to the season ticket holder I had the pleasure of being next to, what an afternoon they had: Turn up at 3.05 Call Longstaff a useless ginger twat for 30 mins Go for a pint on 35 mins Come back 5 mins into half time Call Longstaff a useless ginger twat for 30 mins Say “I’ve had enough of this” and leave on 80 mins The loyalest football supporters the world has ever had Edited March 2 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFC91 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) We seriously need mass seat relocation. 1- get kids away from away fans and get some lads standing. 2- need an standing area in leazes asap. 3- good areas for atmosphere taking up by boring fuckers. Look at the leazes/east stand corner. Lads in that corner are fucking muted. 4- need younger fans in the ground. Hopefully this workshop they put on fans all say same thing. We seriously need to move people man. Edited March 2 by NUFC91 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) I think for many season ticket holders it’s a case of familiarity breeds contempt I’ve had the same experience in all 4 stands over the last couple of seasons. Season ticket holders just turning up out of habit to piss and moan throughout the match. They take no joy from being in the ground. They could do with a break, for their own sanity. Either to allow them to remember what it is they enjoy about being at the match, or to accept that they don’t actually enjoy it and find something better to do. It’s a depressing situation really, miserable negative people clinging on to their tickets just for the sake of it.

Heron Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) Had a discussion with a long standing match mate tonight whom is in his 60's. General feeling, not just for him, but for me also, was that there simply isn't enough young pissed lads together. Have to say I agree. It isn't popular because the way football is rightly going. It's more sanitised and accessible. There has to be a happy medium, I'm not sure what it is. Edited March 2 by Heron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more sanitised and accessible. Mate this is exactly it. The only fix is doing a big relocation. To me i'd love to make level 4 of leazes standing and get soms interaction with away fans. Even couple thousand next to away fans would make a difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Yep, it’s not going to get resolved without the club making themselves unpopular and shuffling people around. You only really need a couple of areas where people persistently sing to drastically improve the atmosphere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
