Lots want better atmosphere but today sitting in my seat; which is between the singing section and the area singing lots today; I was impressed when both areas sang the same song with the increased noise one minute and then utterly bewildered when seeing w️ signs being thrown in each others direction when one area was singing a song (which to be honest I could not make out as was not loud enough at times) and the other area were singing something different. Just accept sometimes fans in different areas start songs and cannot hear other areas attempts - there is enough us and them already in this club.

But S82 don’t seem to join in songs that they don’t start themselves. They do great work, doing what they do, but they definitely create a divide. Genuine question - why didn’t they join in and spread the old classics when others started them and continue only singing the nonsense Jay Dasilva song that sounds like just using a tune for the sake of cramming someone’s name into it..?

Red94 Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Why create a divide, should all be singing as one . Join in with the old songs and join in with the new songs shouldn’t be a singing section or whatever should be a whole singing stand, then eventually get the whole ground going. Together as one!

Ohbasso Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 I’m in the unreserved section but think it’s great when I hear other parts of the ground singing, I’d love it if the rest of the ground out sung us every game, we’d have a awesome atmosphere then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a critic of s82 for many years on here. I dislike the constant drum bashing, I dislike them persevering with dreary songs that dont catch on and they choose to sing and drum bash to these dreary songs at vital moments in the game rather than a traditional come on you reds etc. The dont realise that they actually stifle the atmosphere in other stands with their bullshit Forza songs. Perfect example today, NE has two songs, we he has two I dont know, one of them, the old Magnússon song really catches on around the ground, yet when NE scored today they choose to sing the song that isnt catchy and the sing that only them know the words and the tune to. I enjoyed today, there was pockets of fans around the SS really giving it a go, either where I sit in s18 where it's usually dead people were giving it a go. Today was very reminiscent of being stood on the old EE with the songs choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only sing what THEY want to sing, despite being asked many many times to cut down on the Forza bullshit and the constant drum bashing they continue with it. They dont join in with songs that other areas have started, in fact it seems if another part of the ground has started a song, they start their own song and bash that drum even more frantically and louder to drown those areas out.

Mr Popodopolous Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 People question the DaSilva song...when it was during a period of attacking play. Who got the assist- why, DaSilva! He's a defender by position of course, but definitely has potential to be a strong outlet, whether as LB or LWB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puckle_red Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 I'm in the unreserved corner and didn't hear anything from anywhere else. Often "COYR" from other areas will be joined in with by the corner. But there certainly isn't a conscious effort to ignore other parts of the ground, a strange suggestion. I do agree that the songs from S82 are too 'Palace-like' if you will and that Man Utd copy-cat one is dreadful. Also more and more songs are being copied which didn't used to happen as much, but some noise is better than no noise, I guess. I reckon a return to traditional songs with the odd new one mixed in is the way. In the main they are good for the atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattWSM Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 What about Red Army? Remember a night game in late 80s that being sung non stop for 1st half in the east end - does anyone else recall this? it was left side to right side of east end alternating singing at each other - brilliant Just reminising... haha What other old songs should the new (old) singing section bring back?

Definitely been more recently than that! @Lew - T rightly referred to times it may have been heard. 4 hours ago, 054123 said: It’s great to see and hear fans standing and singing around the ground. The club have done well to nullify the atmosphere, before the redevelopment, when I was younger, I stood and sang in the Atyeo, B Block of the Dolmam and then the corner of the Williams. I remember A and B Block being quite noisy when I started going...sure that top few rows and not just a few on the top row were prone to standing too? (Started 1998). Atyeo Blocks H and one of the others- don't recall which one, was either C or E were decent for atmosphere. Certainly right about Williams too, Subbers moved in the bit near the away fans IIRC? Then the end Block of Dolman- G I think?- before then. East End too of course.. A, B predated the Subbers. There was a decent spread of atmosphere in terms of area I thought.

Notable that the singing section didn’t join in and support them and just carried on singing the stupid new drones. I didn't hear any songs from where I was stood in the singing section from any other part of the ground. Probably a case of sound not travelling well but any excuse to have your usual pop.

Carey 6 Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Can’t say I heard them from the unreserved section, hopefully continues to grow though as it will improve the atmosphere. @Bar BS3 nobody intentionally chooses not to join in with chants started elsewhere!
