Match Atmosphere

I'll be honest I think it was a good session. The vast, vast majority were in agreement that light shows and choreographed pyrotechnics  were all shite and too American. Instead opting for a more organic, European atmosphere.

 

Virtually all tables opted for further safe standing and/or singing sections.

 

Virtually all tables opted for local music tapping into heritage and up-to-date songs that hold relevance to current players to get the crowd going.

 

Some folk suggested a silent spell 15mins before kick off to allow the crowd to have the atmosphere build and some also suggested the flag displays started and lasted for longer throughout that period as they considered Wor Flags' displays a big catalyst for the atmosphere.

 

Of course, there were suggestions of fan cams  and one or two other ridiculous items but on the whole it was positive I'd say. The proof is in the pudding though with whatever actions are taken.

 

There were several other good suggestions aiding the overall atmosphere or "entertainment" however you want to dress it up I guess but generally it was stuff we've seen before or that has previously worked better than the current set up, I'd say.

 

 

 

This in bucketloads.  I miss the noise and roar before a game, before the ‘Flashing Blade’ was shouting ‘make some noise’ or Barry in the Box and his Dire Straits obsession.  The current man in the box seems no less shite.

Some of this shit is beyond the pale.

 

Sellers bringing stuff to seats man. Can you not wait 45 fucking minutes without fucking stuffing your fat cunt of a face with fuckin chips or necking some shit fucking beer. Watch the fucking game man you morons.

 

What planet are some of these clowns on. I couldn't give a fuck about what the fucking DJ plays at half time. Who the fuck suggested lyrics on a screen!? Has this half a brain cunt ever been to a match before. It's like people see shit at US sports, corporate gigs and the likes and think we should do that  without actually engaging their brain. Some Muppet on twitter was suggesting a space at a new stadium for tailgating. The football season runs over the winter and we play in Northern England you total fucking idiot. 

 

All we want is more parts of the ground that fucking sing, so you don't feel like a fucking wally singing on your own. 

 

Jesus Christ it's not that fucking hard.

I didn't think my faith in humanity could be eroded further. I was very, very wrong.

Seems we were wrong all along and it wasn’t Ashley that was the main problem with Newcastle.  It is Chicken Bites and Chips.

I'm going to make a quiz up, print it off and hand it around strawberry corner for the West Ham game. Hope everyone likes it.

[OpenC]

I guess this is just one of the problems with the commercialisation and gentrification of the game. People who wanted to go to experience the football ground atmosphere but not contribute to it eventually outnumbering the people who created the football ground atmosphere in the first place, and before you know it you've got a stadium that politely applauds goals and otherwise moans noisily about lack of excitement, and those same people are on the focus group about bringing back the noise

Didn’t Pardew have some weird suggestions to improve the atmosphere at West Ham back in the day?

Someone suggested a massive game of soggy biscuit like....

FFS, What are you implying with the general knowledge of the first few rows of the gallowgate end ?

Note I've never been so is it the same as the old Stretford end as per the jasper carrot joke. Ie thick bastards ?

No offence to the intelligent in that end.

 I just picked an end tbh, was just fucking about and knew/hoped you'd take it in good humour

[Conjo]

Generalizing here, but I find it weird how for so many people the only thing that is pure and constitutes a good atmosphere are grown up men standing and singing different songs in the same (too fast) tempo while clapping with some shouting when we have a massive pressure against the opposition, at goals and poor decisions sprinkled in between. 

 

Let some fans bring instruments, like that cunt at Portsmouth. Do some gimmicky stuff like the Iceland fans. Let someone use a megaphone to get others going.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

As silly as those suggestions are, it wasn't the majority of the stuff from the meeting. Not going to help if we just hammer the negativity.

it's not even the singing for me, its about being engaged in the match and actively supporting the team. we've seen numerous times the effect a ferocious crowd can have on a game, yet thousands of "fans" are happy to turn up and sit in total silence or just twist on and moan their tits off. we should be RoArInG ThE LaDs on at every possible opportunity.

 

not sure how you can solve it, tbh. the obvious way is to get like-minded fans together in one area, and just hope the positive energy spreads.

Is this the picture round? If so it's a bit easy.

[bobbydazzla]

I'm in agreement with what Big River says on the previous page

 

You should go to the game to get behind the team and encourage them to do the best they can and to attempt to create an atmosphere that intimidates the opposition for the full 90 mins

Doesn't matter if that's via singing, clapping, cheering, pogo'ing, holding a shoe in the air or bellowing DODDDDDDDDDDGY KEEEEEEEEEPAAAAA at every opposition goal kick

 

Too many people are walking into SJP then pissing & moaning, stuffing their faces with bait, slurping shite beer when the game is being played, telling people to sit down, telling people to shut up and being negative, entitled wankers

Thought given how Flat we were on the pitch the support was excellent. Particulary at 2-0 we got well and truely got behind the lads.
