Bring the Noise

The rags at home this season was great and now this game.

As good as anywhere in the country when it is like this.

I think tomorrow will be decent with the good support from Yorkshire and everyone still buzzing from Thursday.
 
Watched the whole game back last night and fucking hell, that was some atmosphere - better than I thought when I posted on here yesterday. It wasn’t just the chants. The cacophony of noise and booing of their players, etc, was incessant throughout. To keep it going virtually constantly for 95 minutes and for it to be coming from all parts of the ground is nigh on unprecedented in English football these days. To be fair, you can hear the Liverpool fans at a few points during the game but they just got drowned out on so many occasions and only really got on top of us for 2 or 3 minutes after they scored. Even then you can still hear us before we got the winning goal. Someone said earlier in this thread that one of their fans on RAWK reckons we were the loudest set of fans they’ve ever heard in terms of consistency over the full 90-odd minutes which coming from those deluded bitter ****s is high praise indeed. Anyone who was at that crucial game at Anfield in 2014 will know that they booed our players too and did quite a good job of it for a fair while but as soon as we pulled it back to 2-1 they simply gave up booing, and when we made it 2-2 you could hear a pin drop in their end with City fans dominating the atmosphere right up until Coutinho got the winner against the run of play, whereas they only dominated the atmosphere on Thursday night for a couple of minutes or so.
All too often I bemoan our fans for going into their shells when big games are poised on a knife edge but we bucked that trend totally the other night. Thanks to everyone who contributed. Hopefully we see some better atmospheres with more joining in at the more routine games from now on.
 
Same. Thought I was going to have coronary when Sane;s shot was rolling across the line. My neck and shoulders are stiff as fuck.

Me too. I'm in 110, and can't really see the north stand goal in any detail.
Sane's shot seemed to run along the line for hours till it hit the net on the other side.
 
It was Amazing! Im in 107 and never has the atmosphere been as good where I am. I do feel the booing really added to it, do we now boo every team that comes? It seemed to help with the overall hostile vibe
 
Amazing atmosphere, for once we were the underdog and that helped a lot, rather than be comfortable and think how many we are going to score that day.

I also liked the way the club thought that Liverpool fans should contribute to it as well by playing James - Sit Down at half time. I hope next time we go to Anfield they reciprocate our act of kindness by playing 'Seven Nation Army' so we can all sing about our best player in a big and important game.

Fuck wits.
 
Watched the whole 90 minutes back tonight and the intensity of the atmosphere was brilliant.

Not much singing to be honest. We’ve had anything like two dozen better singing atmosphere than that, easily.

Singing from us- a bit to start the game, a bit after the first goal and the most after our second goal.

Singing from them- you couldn’t hear them at the game and could only hear them singing the Firmino song after the goal watching it back and that was it.

But it was the intensity of the noise that was impressive. The boos, jeers, cheers for their possession and mistakes. The reaction to ref decisions, attacks, “go on”s, cheers for tackles etc. were all very good. Definitely the best for that since the 2012 title run-in derby.
