RedNight Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Says a lot when the away fans are singing "is this a library". Surprising to hear such a tame atmosphere for a top of the table clash? Silent first half. Picked up when we scored and we were nowhere at 1-1. Pretty disappointing to see flint 2nd half have to try and whip up the crowd! Wolves fans also showing how it's done away from home. Compare their support to ours at QPR a week ago. Worlds apart. Normally the Gate is ok mind, but thought tonight we could of been better. Especislly at 1-1. Players could of done with us ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Silent first half ????????? Are you serious .?

nebristolred Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Atmosphere wasn't great but it was a proper tense match. Just had an air of nerves and anxiety rather than excitement. Not something to worry about that much imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Red Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Sounded quiet on the box i must say.. all about where you are stood/sat i suppose but for me section 82 really needs to expand across the South Stand if possible.. its just not enough to have that as our only real main singing outlet.

Agreed. Debating moving my ST to be nearer them next season, so good to have a group creating a decent atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelts Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 We made noise , they made noise . When it got tense we was quiet. Great to hear them and seeing the limbs when they scored was nearly good !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Can we have S82 extended up along the back of the South Stand next season? Demand is obviously there as the STs sell out there first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 There’s been better atmospheres at most other games this season. From a Dolman perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 I wish more of our away support took a leaf out of their book and actually stood during the game. You can guarantee no one in that away following was asked to move because ‘you’re in my seat’ or to ‘sit down’ which you often get at our away games..

Fleetwood are still the best I’ve heard in a long time, and they brought less than 300. I’m sure 20k can out sing 3.5k if they are up for it!

Packman Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 We should have 2 singing sections, keep s82 in the south corner but put another lot in the Atyeo corner again, just give away fans 2000 odd seats, we’re not here to make friends. 2 singing sections at either end of the stadium would work I reckon.

Flagon Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 I think the sending off of their player killed the atmosphere a bit. Up to that point it was pretty loud both home and away end, and obviously the initial reaction to him going off was loud but then they sat in while we just knocked it about waiting for the right moment. Before then it was building up to a good game, some decent robust but fair challenges, some quick interplay from both sides which was keeping crowd going and then it just went with the sending off.

BobBobSuperBob Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 If we had Blocks A & B of the Dolman anything like it was in late 80’s / 90s We’d be rocking it Some of the apathy to make any noise at all, amongst many in the Dolman these days is nauseating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well demographically I doubt there’s many more elderly, infirm or kids in other teams away support (United, Wolves, Leeds). They manage somehow. Usually the front couple of rows sit and the rest stand. 13 minutes ago, Bar BS3 said: NEWSFLASH: Were you sit doesn’t start, stop, or make you sing!
