Match Atmosphere

[Disco]

Palace with their one song on loop with no words and their drum is absolutely honking.

It's about some ship but I was in the block next to the "ultras" 2 seasons ago and couldn't really work out the lyrics 

[Wolfcastle]

Watched the goals from Bayerns game last week.  Nice flag waving as the games going on and drumming and all that. Shame most people cant even be bothered to even move when a goal goes in.

Is that the “ooooh ooooh oh. We support Palace. Ooooh oooh oooh. We support Palace” one? 
 

Sounds like that, anyway. Sounds fucking wank, whatever it is.

Goal celebrations in Germany are shite mind. Even in the terraced parts.

No place for drums at a football match

I was in the away end for a Bundesliga game last season. It was such a weird experience. Genuinely don’t think half their fans even noticed when they scored.

[LFEE]

I love how everyone who’s complaining about the atmosphere are against anything that seems to help make an atmosphere because it’s not cool 

 

Also I don’t see the play in criticising other fans making an attempt to create an atmosphere at their clubs.

 

You come across very miserable… maybe the issue at SJP is closer to home than you realise

Quite like the mega old folk(ish) song they played at Koln and I think they do similar at Mainz. Absolutely at odds with the modern stuff but they seem to love it. Same goes with the usually kitch 70/80s prematch anthems. So long as they own it then it’s all good.

Actually stood in the terrace behind the goal at Koln back in 2012 for a crucial end of sesson match v Stuttgart. Koln needed to win to fight off relegation and Stuttgart needed to win to try to qualify for the CL I think.

 

Atmosphere was class mind. Must have been 10k Stuttgart fans there. Finished 1-1 but considering the magnitude of the game I remember Kolns goal celebrations being rather underwhelming, even on the terrace.

 

Ended up in a beer keller absolutely jam packed with Stuttgart fans bouncing about, jumping up on the tables amd generally going daft after the match. Me and wor lass must have looked well out of place sat there 

 

A Stuttgart fan came up to us and said something to us in German. Explained we were English and probably in the wrong place really! Ended up telling him I was from Newcastle and he said "Ah Alan Shearer". Next thing I know we were being included in him and his mates round and the drinks just kept on coming over. Wouldn't let us put our hands in our pockets either. Left the place absolutely plastered and the meal we'd planned to have that night never happened

Was always UNITED (clap 3 times). Not sure exactly when the Toon bit crept in but I think the first time a remember it was when we were playing Man Utd at home probably 20 years ago or so. Their away fans were singing "UNITED" and to drown them out our lot were shouting TOON in between and it seemed to catch on from then.

Used to be like this. Possibly the best rendition ever from 55 seconds in.

Yeah I don’t remember the particular match I first heard it, I think I’d have said away at Old Trafford - but I also remember it as it being a response to ManU (and maybe Leeds?) doing the same United chant.

Aye whenever Man Utd played Leeds the Leeds fans would all shout "LEEDS" in between the Man Utd fans shouts of "UNITED". We adapted that to "TOON" whenever we played Man Utd and it stuck, unfortunately. The clap 3 times then raise your arms in the air is the correct way to do it.

Love seeing that clip - hell of a signing Sheedy was!

Unless you're next to it a drum would be great to stop the hundred miles an hour train crash that is our renditions of The Blaydon Races

Brilliant must have been 7k plus in London Road, sunny day, Hall escorted to the ground by the fans and the feeling that the club was taking off under Keegan.

The syncro clapping is mint.

Must be the worst generation of football supporters ever currently, the game has gone from working class to middle class theatre going types.

 

Give me a cold October night at Stoke in the 90’s running the gauntlet than the current experience.

There’s one to debate. If you could have football atmospheres of the 90’s back but no Internet/Newcastle Online which would you choose…

Assume you're talking about that infamous Lague Cup match when you mentioned Stoke!

 

Still to this day the worst crowd violence I've ever seen at a football match. Minibuses being tipped onto their side the lot. It was a full scale riot. I drove down with 3 of my mates. Was only 17 at the time and hadn't long past my test.

 

Got talking to a QPR fan walking back to the car. He'd travelled up from London especially to watch his hero He's Ferdinand play. Next thing we know there's a Stoke fan coming up to us telling us to turn around quickly. Barely got the words out his mouth and a crowd of around 40/50 Stoke fans stood up against a wall just piled into us. The 4 of us ended up getting a police escort back to the car covered in blood 

 

Atmosphere was pure poison right from arriving. I remember winding the window down and asking a group of lasses for directions. "Fuck off you Geordie bastards!" was the response. Couldn't get into any of the pubs so we ended up getting a burger from a burger van. My mate hadn't even taken a bite and a Stoke fan came over and knocked it out his hands. We knew then we were in for a long night!

 

The most menacing atmosphere inside a football ground I can remember. We were behind the goal and I can still recall loads of Stoke fans in the adjacent Paddock not even watching the game. Just stood there staring at us for the entire game. Didn't help their mood when we beat them 4-0 either. A totally bizarre evening.

 

Hated them ever since.

Missed that one, which isn't a bad thing by all accounts. I remember it being talked about a lot at the time. I'm the same regarding Leicester fans. One minute I think of them as a benign set of fans but then I think back to that final day at Filbert Street in 1992 and think I hate them.

Same here. Missed Stoke thankfully but was at FS on that day. Horrendous scenes

Exact same for me mate - bedlam it was.

 

Sure it came out that rumours were that a NUFC fan had stabbed a female Stoke fan (which didn't happen!) and then came the utter chaos!

This the same match they were fuming saying Ginola dived?
