"I think the prices doesn't help, the cheapest I could get was 34, include my cider for the day and food and that, looking at 100 (my fault for not buying a season ticket this year and were without our best striker, we also havent been the most dominant in games, quite a few factors, if it was 24 a for every ticket without membership it would had sold out days ago " Probably our fault for not having a fence to pass a bit of paper through !

Why would you buy a Season Ticket for the EastEnd and then go and sit somewhere else? Anyway, I haven’t got a clue if you’re Gas and I’m not too bothered either way mate. What I will do is thank you for bringing up the subject of atmosphere as it gives me an excuse to re-post a ‘tweet’ from a Pompey fan about how shit the support is up at the Mem. If you think it’s bad at AG then be thankful we’ve never had to resort to piping crowd noise through the PA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, agreed. Our stadium is much, much better now than it ever was. However, with that, we've lost the atmosphere. We've now got stewards 'guarding' and policing the S82, which is where the only bit of noise comes from. And the club refuse to make that section bigger, so our atmosphere is restricted in my opinion. Our stadium has done many things for us. Improving the atmosphere, it has not.

CotswoldRed Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Putting the intention of the OP to one side. Like many, many other stadiums in the league the atmosphere is generally poor. If you are singing your heart out then I'm not criticising you. There just aren't enough of you.

Are the club fully to blame? SAG, Police etc- maybe the club are restricted in what they can do as well, size of area wise. I'm not saying that I believe the club are pushing for a bigger area because it possibly suits them a bit? However outside factors maybe key here.

exAtyeoMax Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Thought the atmosphere was good on Saturday, so much better than this time last season. Since development, I do miss the crowd gathering around the pitch alongside the Dolman towards the end of the game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akira does have a point tho - Imv the singing section should be located behind the SS goal, not tucked away in the corner but as you say there are probably outside factors that stop that happening. Away fans are able to make themselves heard because of the acoustics in the Atyeo and they’re in the perfect part of AG. LJ has often tried to encourage as much home songs/chants as possible and I believe he actually made the effort to meet up with some of the singing section - no doubt to say how much a difference noisy home support can make. Being in Dolman we often hear ‘is this a library ’ from the away fans in the Atyeo.......I know that I and guys around me find that annoying!

Agree it should be more central, my question is on whether we can feasibly expand. Again however, as you say logistics etc may prevent it being a bit more central as well- plus existing season ticket holders. I don't think the Atyeo acoustics are/have been all that but appreciate I'm likely in a minority! I just don't know how well sound travels out of the stands. You get some posters on here based in the Dolman claiming they heard very little from the Swansea fans yet you get other posters saying they heard the Swansea fans quite a bit more. Question whether we have fantastic acoustics full stop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
