think i killed the thread lol!


No mate!

The fact is - people need things organising.

There was no good 'blues everywhere' piss ups before someone came up with getting Shambles on here. Unless you wanted to sip the Carling in Mary D's *shudder*.

Towards the end of the 06/07 season people were starting to go towards the 'singing section' and the club realised this and made it official. All of a sudden more people went into that corner and it got pretty good down there.

What the club needs to do is attract people throughout the ground who want to sing to the *enter part of the ground here*. As I've previously stated, I think we need to have it down in the North Stand and let those who want to wind up the away fans do so. But a lot of people disagree with that.

It's going to be interesting, this meeting. I look forward to it!

i think thats utter bullshit, you can sing where ever you sit. whats wrong with whats already there in the south stand? dont move anything if people wanna sing and dont have the balls to do it where there sat come and move to the south stand not north! i dont think the whole of the south stand is going to move to the north, i think its fine as it is, more people just need to join in, the kippax was the past its just a name! there is no name in coms cos everyone should be shouting to support your team. in the south and east corner we wind up the away fans as it is you people in the north are just moaning cos you have got no atmosphere you know what you should do, not moan at a meeting get off ur arse and make an atmosphere

Not true, there may of been not "internet blues piss ups" but there are lots of examples of loads of blue getting together for piss ups and creating a blues everywhere atmosphere..without the organisation of 'tinter web.

lol finally someone who agrees
 
How about another singing section at block 132, diagonally opposite 111? There are hundreds of people who wind up sat in the CB/ North stand who don't sing because the blanket and flask brigade hush them down in those areas. Ask them to congregate in that corner. It's not operation one end, but it'll get more fans singing, imo.
 
Half the people making noises on here never even set foot in the kippax. You can tell that they way they are banging on.

The Kippax was a dirty horrible piss filled dark shed.....People are making it sound like it was a warm friendly "All together now" family knees up....

Most of the crowd on here would shit thier pants stood right in the middle of that hot sweaty heaving mass. It was a scary place.....If the crowd moved you went with it...fellas just pissing on the floor because it was too much fucking about to get out. The ubelieveable abuse that was shouted with venom.....the fights that kicked off between blues that were pissed up and sometimes punched each other.....








I miss it
 
Were do people get this idea that the atmoshere was great at MR?
OK for a FEW games after it went all seater there was a good atmosphere but for MOST matches the atmosphere wasnt much better than the average game at COMS, and when the crowd inside COMS are up for it the atmosphere at COMS is as good as any in the last 10 years or so at MR.
 
You can rename a stand the kippax and you can p*** off a lot of settled fans who create the most atmosphere by moving them or the away fans around. But at the end of the day it`s not gonna work cos theres too many people who won`t partake in any form of atmosphere building!!I`d suggest a simple fans survey for next years season ticket buyers and shift all the quiet sit down brigade to the Colin Bell and East stands.
 
Before there's a new Kippax, how about we stop misnaming our ground "Eastlands". That'd be a nice start ffs.

Until then.
