Holloway Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Was a bit hit and miss in the Gallowgate, the new songs are so fucking flimsy ie the Gordon one, that it sounds like folk want to just get them out of the way, the endings are like a wet fart Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I enjoyed the atmosphere yesterday; it was never gonna be bouncing given the fixture and it being job done at half-time, but I thought there was a pretty consistent backing and the Tonali chants felt plenty vociferous from where I was. Didn't hear the Palace fans but for a short round of "shhh" at around 80 minutes when the game was dead and buried. I wonder how many hundred missed the two goals at the end of the first half. Fucking hell, man. Absolutely dozens of people piling out around me from the 38th minute onwards. Do they really just not give that much of a fuck, like? Is that what it comes down to? I guess we knew this from the Ashley days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Sounded dead on the telly unfortunately. Until a proper singing section is made, preferably two, we are just going to be going round in circles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly more fans are leaving earlier now then when we were crap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Lad next to me fucked off on about 40 mins and came back at about 50 mins. Was on his phone loads in the second half too. Looked up a few times to whine about players. Called Lascelles a donkey at one point. The sooner these lot fuck off the better. Waste of a ticket.

Unfortunately the opposite is going to happen, as when the ground expansion arrives there will be even more of these types. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Guy in front of me took his kid to get sweets and missed two goals. I will never understand why people don’t watch every minute. Gallowgate was pretty loud though, especially for a game with no jeopardy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Honestly, when you see people streaming out of the ground on 35 mins to go to the bar it defies belief.

NEEJ Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Bloke next to me waffled on about his retirement plans to the lady beside him all first half, barely even watched the match. Odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Old lad in front of me booed the taking of the knee, spent a lot of time loading up paddy power and then tried to take a video of the players but had the camera on self-view or whatever it’s called so was just recording himself for ages. Then after a while he gave up on trying to turn the camera around and just turned his phone around to face the pitch and recorded it by flailing his phone around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 The bar at 35 mins crew seem to treat the match as something that gets in the way of their day on the peeve And what have thousands of people got on at 5pm on a Sat that’s so urgent they have to stream out at 85 mins when we’re 4-0 up Tickets are like gold dust and people can’t even be arsed to watch the full game Was a noticeable amount of empty seats in Milburn L7 too Strawberry Corner was very vocal, as ever. Get standing sections in all 4 corners and we’d be onto something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) I was stunned by all the people leaving at 35-40 minutes considering there was going to be a hefty added time too. Glad they missed two goals tbh. Tonali warming up for the first time was great, everyone stood up even in the Platinum Club and was one of the noisiest moments of the afternoon.

NE27 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 People are just too interested in getting their pints in before the rush/getting to the bus queue first. Even when we are getting slapped, I wait till the very miserable end, it's what you paid for ultimately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) I’ve left early in the bad old days, when we regularly got spanked, the players were halfarsed and going to the match was a chore. Peeve was needed to numb the pain But these days we’ve got a top side, usually win at home and being at the match is a joy So frustrating to see thousands piling for the exits at 4-0 up on 85 mins ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED Edited October 22, 2023 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danh1 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Was in the Platinum Club yday and aside from the backing of Tonali I thought the atmosphere was shite. Couldn’t believe the amount of people leaving early as well. Pathetic tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Can't remember as many early leavers as there was yesterday, like. I've personally only left before the FT whistle twice, the 0-6 v Liverpool and the second 0-3 v the mackems. Never when winning. This ticketing system only has detriments in all regards. My old ST seat I've been buying for the last 2 seasons in between my dad and 3 mates? I'd kill to be back in that seat but the guy who had it yesterday was apparently on his phone for nigh on the whole match. Meanwhile I'm almost at pitch level, unable to see the opposite touchline and am being asked to sit down when we're on the break. Just utter shit.

Wandy Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Yep. Considering how much TNT bigged up the atmosphere pre-match that was really embarrasing. It genuinely sounded like we were playing away. No wonder the team never got going when you've got a crowd who just turned up to be entertained. So many plastics in there now and the only way it will be fixed is by creating more standing sections around the ground. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 It has never been more obvious than tonight, that we need an organised singing section. It sounded embarrassing on the telly. Even McCoist commented that we weren't giving the team any support. You just have to look at Bruno, Gordon etc trying to raise the crowd game after game. Something has got to be done about it, it is literally the only thing missing with the club now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
