    Back in the 1970’s, at around November time, there used to be an issue with bangers being thrown around the East End, not a pleasant experience!

    OMG! Forgot all about that, getting old mate ?

    Your right, not a pleasant experience!!

    No because they have home fans behind both goals.

    Ah,  well, that's a totally different argument!

    Simply, we should have the same with the away supporters going in the top tier of the Lansdown.

    Now that's still doable and i for one would go back in the Atyeo in a heartbeat.

    In Italy the ultras tend to be lead by someone with a megaphone, running through a rota of songs. Many have the same tune/music as English songs . German grounds tend to really rock too. 

     Until we move our singing fans back to behind the goal we are always going to be lopsided, it just looks weird having a corner of singing fans. 

    Anyway, maybe there is something on this website we could use/adapt 

    https://www.fanchants.com/country/italy/

    They have quite a few flares too... 

    Sorry, the singing section cannot be moved behind the goal, nor could it have been planned there in the first place!

    People standing in a certain block next to people sitting in other blocks totally destroys their view. A large proportion of the pitch is lost and cannot be seen. The old East end worked because everyone was stood!

    Not only that but what about current season ticket holders behind the goal?

    Having the singing section in the corner doesn't seem to dampen the atmosphere at Crystal Palace does it?

    Mental. It seems the powers that be are determined to drain every last bit of atmosphere left on a matchday out of football in this country.

    Sorry, must disagree with this.

    Atmosphere is caused by people, supporters. Back in the 70's and 80's there were no loud music blaring, no bloke on a mic, no need for outside intervention at all.

    We started chanting from about 2 o'clock so by 2-45, the place was rocking ( well the East end was).

    Pyrotechnics in a crowd is just bonkers and wrong and I'm surprised that anyone thinks differently. They are dangerous to those who set them off and those close to them.

    If it continues then a more robust searching mechanism needs to be introduced.

    Fairly happy with this!

    was told the prices were going up big-time.

    Yes I thought they were going up. Mine was £350 for the car park behind the South stand which I think was the same as last year.

    I hope when they do go up some consideration is given to those that NEED to park there as opposed to those who like to park there.

  6. I'm sure none of these will surpass the amazing stadium now nearly complete that resembles a fruit market.

    Difficult to disguise a massive 50k seater stadium but, by the looks of it, they are doing a fab job........
