Meeting Re: Atmosphere

Should give the away fans just the 2nd tier, only let them use the same entrance they use already to get up there and then we get the whole of the 1st tier of the south stand! It might mean giving them a longer allocation on the 2nd tier but could that work?

Is this "special" announcement due today?

public execution of Huge Ferritt in the centre circle at half time?

Nooooooooo, it's gotta be a lynching from one of the roof stanchions on City Square, half an hour before the game.

Yes that would definately work. They might just have 2300 tickets, but only 5 or so teams come here and well out their allocation anyway.

Turn off the fucking PA system except to read the teams out

Stop using matchdays as a media studies training course for tv wannabees

Sit back

Hey presto, the 40,000 + crowds will make their own atmosphere

Please let it be this.

Whos sanctioning this shit thats what i want to know,that was beyond embarrassing at the last home match regarding them birds with the mics....and that shit outside on the square with 2 dozen people watching....Pull the plug and quick!

Seriously I do agree though, something needs to be done. Us in South Stand Lower cant hear the upper tier above us, we cant hear 110/111, they can't hear us, and the rest of the ground can't hear anything much so are not inspired to join in.
Not sure it could be devised any worse if we tried..

I think, of all possible situations we could have in our stadium, we currently have the absolute worst possible set up. You're right, it couldn't be devised any worse if we tried.

The loss of terrace culture, all seater stadiums and the Americanisation of matchday now with the emphasis on making it an "experience" means that we will never get the atmosphere back at football grounds, as to used to be.

When i say terrace culture i dont mean fighting either before some get all hot and bothered.

Kill the cheese, fuck the piped music off and let the kids come to the match like we did with our dads and let them learn how to support their team instead of trying to make it an "experience".

Football is the reason we go, not some knob jockey with a mike!

I know that away teams have to have a certain percentage of our full capacity but I'm not sure how much that is and whether that would fit in with these rules? Could easily be done though, don't know why nobody has thought of it before!
