Atmosphere 2024/25

[Axel Freed]

I feel the same. It’s our only and last chance to improve things. It’s an open goal.

Soriano’s gone round the keeper and just needs to slot it home.

Trouble is he’s more Lee Bradbury than Sergio Aguero

Amongst other things, like he repeats himself at every opportunity like a stuck record!

Pardon,Pardon,Pardon,Pardon !!

Have 1894 decided to move to NS2 yet ?

Hi, 1894’s membership is based all over the ground , the display crew are all mainly around block 115 but over 10% of members are already in the north stand for example.

There has no been no update from the club so there’s no update from 1894.

Tell us the pricing policy. Tell us how the supposed 3,000 standing area can be increased. Tell us if the location of it can be made better.

Tell us that you will reinstate seasoncards - vital that atmosphere grows - not have 8.000 new places as 3,000 flexi gold (£150 extra per year) and 5,000 match days (ie £88 a ticket)

Under what circumstances does anyone think an improved atmosphere will come from that?

We wrote to the club again on Friday and were rebutted. “Deal with Citymatters” they said.

It’s no good having a romantic view of what could happen here. The happy ending at the moment is not on the table.

If as stated here the fan group who are best placed to support the club get a better atmosphere have approached the club on 3 occasions and been ignored, then we might as well stop discussing what we think is possible in the new stand as the club clearly don't have atmosphere anywhere near the top of thier list of priorities they want to achieve from the extension.

In many respects this thread annoys me. All it seems to be about is the 2 singing sections and whether they sing.
Bollocks, atmosphere is about all of us shouting encouragement, shouting in anger at the ref, applauding the team anything but sitting there in silence.
The 2 singing sections do a brilliant job but sometimes I wonder why they bother because the rest of the stadium sit in silence.
I think it's so shite that when Haaland scores that announcer does the Erliiiing..... and we respond with his last name. We shouldn't need fake encouragement, we should be climbing back over our seats having fallen 4 rows down ( I'm joking, you know what I mean)

Sounds to me like 1894 have way overreached themselves and painted themselves into a corner.

In what regard mate? Asking the club some questions and offering support on how to achieve better atmosphere doesnt seem too far out of their remit?, shame the club have ignored them on 3 occasions.

 

[There is a Light]

I would expect the club to have started serious engagement with all of our main supporters groups well before this point.

If proper discussions haven’t started, then I would expect any active group to approach the club themselves, as 1894 have here.

I am taking from the club response that they don’t want to engage, consult or listen to what fans want, which is what many have suspected for a long time now.

No we haven’t we have absolutely highlighted what our members wanted highlighting plus the views of many other non members who got in touch through social media.

We don’t sit here articulating pretend views and live on button moon about what will make the club listen all of a sudden, mainly because we have years of experience and you have years of sitting on the sidelines talking a good game on bluemoon but actually doing nothing.

You are not intending to move yourself. So you are basically part of the problem. Raising expectations when the club can’t even deliver basic information on the type of person they want in there.

How many NSL2 seats will be syphoned off on packages, come with a meal/hotel/package. How many seats will go to 3rd party sites and if a someone in a singing area can’t attend that day, will that ticket be prioritised for someone else who wants to sing or will it go into Ferran’s pot, the black hole of mystery where anyone turns up
Next game, often with no connection to the club, this diluting the singing area even more.

You think we have over reached? You don’t know what our objectives are ? We didn’t ask for a blue wall, club suggested it and then invited us with others to meeting and then when we pointed out what would make that work and what wouldn’t they largely ignored it and just went off something designed to make khaldoon the net spend champion again.

If you think you can do ay better - Feel free to set up your own group then, arrange funding, get a structure, have elected leaders , do it through bluemoon, mail the club and say we have x amount of people wanting to relocate and how do we go about it. We can talk at any time.

Do let us know how you get on and what reply you get.
