It was class at times today like. Spell in the second half with the full ground singing.

 

Also the Strawberry Corner singing Eddie Howe’s Black n White Army for 5 mins after the match as the players walked round. 
 

UTM. 

 

It just needed a goal to really lift it another level. There was a big build up even 10mins before kick off, just a shame we couldn't get one to go in, think it would have really lifted off then.

[Rich]

Aye, loved that today. The speakers in the Gallowgate being completely off helped.

[Rafalove]

Sounded great in the Gallowgate for most of the game. Those lads in the corner were constant. Somehow there was someone just a few seats away from me that had fallen asleep.

[Wandy]

Fair do’s, from watching it on the TV, it sounded the best I have heard it in a long time for that first 20 minutes. Tailed off after that but at least it never went quiet for this one.

Was most of the Gallowgate at the end TBF. Players clearly appreciated it.

It was class like. Think the Gallowgate as a whole was great today, joining in with loads.

 

Love that “sing your hearts out for the lads” got an airing. Rarely hear it now but was always sang when I started going years ago. 

[Rafalove]

Some nice words from Jorginho and Arteta today.

 

 

 

 

 

Also this is class.

My primary reflection after the final whistle was that the atmosphere was the best it’s been all season because that fucking enjoy the game nonce didn’t play his shit music on 11. You could actually hear the fans supporting the team.

I think we’re approaching the time for a coordinated campaign to get rid of him TBH, he’s that bad

I think it’s more because the speakers were fucked tbh. About ten mins before kick off they went quiet as owt in the Gallowgate.

 

I would love us to play Thunderstruck every game moving forward and fuck Scouse Hey Jude off.

I’m very ambivalent about pre match music. I’d probably go with a couple of build up tunes and then let the crowd do it. Post match, particularly when we win, leave the music off and let the crowd congratulate/appreciate/support the team. He’s a typical shite wedding DJ, thinks it’s all about him.

Thunderstruck is much better and with local ties makes it unique to us.

Loudest I can remember until they scored. Got bit flat at times after that but it did managed to pick it up again. 

 

Still pissed at thousands streaming out at full time, its a bank holiday you can all wait for 5 mins to clap the team off. Corner were amazing again, if we can get another signing section going somewhere else should be bouncing next season.

Aye, still think NW corner level 4 has great potential if the will was there. Near the away fans and would hopefully improve the atmosphere in Leazes end significantly.

38th minute as well there was loads heading down.

 

I get that it’s shit waiting ages for a pint, and it gives you about 5 minutes to drink it, but fucking hell surely the point of going to the match is to get behind the lads and “enjoy the game”?

[NG32]

Really good yesterday, did go a little flat during the game but it was a massively intense duel with only small differences being the key. 

 

If we could have just nabbed a goal....

 

Damn

The lads in the LEC corner are just as good IMO, there's fewer of them but they constantly keep the noise going.

[Sima]

There were loads around me in the Gallowgate that fucked off after Schar put in his own net.  

Don’t come back if you can’t handle going two goals down.

[Holloway]

Shocking, fairweather wankers

Aye that’s shite there was loads of time left. I had to take the bairn to the toilet on 89 mins but we still came back to our seats to watch the end and applaud the lads off.

[Doc]

Shocking, I bet he hadn't even had ten pints. (insert Norman the doorman GIF).

Its fucking pathetic, leaving on 36 mins and 82 mins to get a seat in the fucking beehive or somewhere. Should be clapping lads off afyer performances this year.

Anyone leaving before the 90mins is up should have to go back through the turnstiles before leaving ground. If a certain criteria met just notify them their STs/Memberships are not available for renewal 🙂

[Kanji]

I've begun to notice that the music seems ridiculously loud when you hear it on TV. Find myself turning the volume down until kick off. 

[Chicken Dancer]

Agree about people leaving. It was a good performance, I'm sure that pint can wait an extra 5 minutes, clap them off and enjoy your bank holiday.

 

The atmosphere just prior to the teams coming out when EIEIEIO was bouncing round the ground with the sun shining was magic, like. Shame we didn't get the result but I actually enjoyed it nonetheless.

 

If we start like that against Brighton & Leicester we will have no bother, especially the latter.

 

Hopefully this safe standing trial goes well and we can have another in Leazes L4. Will help the atmosphere bounce round a lot more.

 

Always wondered how there's a coordinated effort at Old Trafford, Liverpool, Leeds & others to get full stands standing for the duration of (maybe big?) games. I think even Arsenal & Man City have large sections that stand.

 

Standing improves atmosphere a lot, although not sure of the logic to it.
