To be fair I thought it was better in the kop than recent matches (I'm sat on row I for what it's worth) .. As for all the noise the kids made in the East stand ??? I didn't hear any of it! Perhaps it's more down to the acoustics in the ground? I can't say I heard much out of our visitors either?!?!?

Perhaps it'll be better if we ever get the corners filled in?

EMBARRASSING, out sung by 50 WW, you should be ashamed.

Whereas the east and west stands are booming with noise every game aren't they. Us in the kop are the only ones who make any noise.

He's done his time don't you know! Once you reach a certain age you lose the ability to sing any more but you are allowed to rubbish the efforts of everyone else with ANGRY CAPITAL LETTERS.

does that mean he has to stop singing too?

[metallilad]

Right.
I am the brother he sits with in the east stand and as he's stated already we sit with our kids along with plenty of other families.
It isn't really the ideal place to stand up and chant things like **** on the ******** below or sit down you ****!
What he is saying is that chants and songs have always (yes always) come from the kop. Whatever the club is its always been the kop.
It is quieter nowadays than it ever has been in the past. Don't get offended, consider it as a rallying call from the previous generation that you need to turn it up a notch or two. That's all.

[Goku]

Nah, not a rallying call. EMBARRASING and 'you should be ashamed'. I'm not quite inspired.

[Westbars Spireite]

I'm a tremendous song singer. Good, deep voice, excellent timing and witty too. I'm wasted where I sit, frankly.

Truth hurts doesn't it.

Saltergate was never as quiet, with half the fans.

[Goku]

I can remember loads of dead atmospheres at Saltergate.

Nostalgia makes everything seem better.

Do you want it singing to you at the next match? That's if I go obviously.

I'm gonna get my brother to sign up to the forum to defend my honour too.

I can never remember the kop being outsung by a small away following.
Even when things on the pitch were uninspiring.

[Goku]

That's cos the small away following were usually on a terrace whereby you could hear absolutely nothing they were singing.

Are we all smoking something very strong today?

I'm not defending him because he's my brother.
I'm defending the fact that you want chants starting in the family stand, making it a hostile area for the little kids that go in there.

Most of the young 'uns do sing. I sit near the middle of the Kop with a lot of adults/older blokes who you don't hear a peep out of - they should also take responsibility, not just the youngsters.

They should move and let others who want to sing have that area. I like to join in but I'm not going to sit down surrounded by quiet people and sing on my own. I can't get anywhere near now with a group of people. At saltergate everybody who wanted to sing could congregate. They can't anymore and in my opinion its the clubs job to do something about it. We need a "singing section", other clubs do it and it works.
