NSG Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Fantastic! I don't particularly want to see streamers being thrown down from the stands but I applaud the club for a) recognising that the atmosphere is critical and b) actually trying to do something about it themselves. As first gestures go, this ain't bad and I think what is now important is for fans to start discussing these things (the atmosphere and how best to improve/encourage it) so that we don't end up with cheer leaders or other naff stuff. The club are clearly looking to get involved with fans to promote a healthier atmosphere and by all accounts they are open to fan discussion and fan ideas regarding this very subject. Indeed N.O among other NUFC websites is being monitored by the club to gauge fan opinion on all manner of things. Now really is the time to voice your opinion. I vote no to streamers, but applaud the gesture and hope this leads to a much healthier atmosphere at St. James' Park. My own advice to club officials would be to watch the Shearer testimonial DVD. We don't need streamers which is cheesy and almost American like. No, hand out black and white placards, more free scarves, balloons even and allow fans to bring in flags, banners and other decorative features. We could do with those ghastly grey seats being changed too and maybe a few slogans like "Howay The Lads", "Geordies" and "Magpies" among others adorning the seats ala Old Trafford, the stadium of light, Anfield etc. My opinion: Keep Local Hero!!! Streamers are ok Scarves are mint The surfer is a top quality idea Anything to make the atmosphere as intimidating as possible is good. A big NO NO to the following: Drums Music after goals Cheerleaders Mascots (except the junior magpies kiddies bit) Any type of scoreboard/video screen.

Guest Chief Bluntasnot Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 How can giving scarves away be a bad idea? It's cringeworthy as fuck. I'm all for atmosphere and chanting, but fully grown blokes squeezing into gravy stained NUFC tops swinging scarves around their head is nothing to brag about. I left my scarves behind at the Pompey and Celtic game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I left my scarves behind at the Pompey and Celtic game. I turned up a few minutes late for pompey and didnt even get one. Some charver had come down at kick off and taken the box. People swinging scarves is cringeworthy? I think its quite traditional and things like music after goals are cringeworthy. Sima 'cringes' a lot but he's a complete fucking cock.

You dont have the nerve to reply to me, then cant work out that scarves are a pre-sky, traditional part of the game but call someone a skyboy because they like them at the match. muh-o-nnh-guh.

Because it made no sense, it was just a random insult without any basis. No, no and no. Although i do remember in 97 or 98 being in the away end at Wimbledon and seeing the shoes off thing for the first time. I admit i found it amusing then. Dont think its that much of a deal giving away free scarves either. It seems like a nice gesture. By the way, well done for coming over as an utter spacka within 2 days of registering. You remind me of someone i used to know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 there are great discount food and drink offers available on the concourse. www.nufc.co.uk Like the sound of this, cheap beers??? Well fuck me!!! Did the person my email go to work, part of a long email I sent: "I don't know anyone that has a drink inside the ground. Most bars in Newcastle city centre on matchday have beer offers on & some bars have strippers on, making these more appealing than paying full price at the bars inside St James Park. The price of alcohol before the match needs to be more competitive & then advertised." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
