Not just pockets of singers, but everybody singing (and bouncing) together. There were lots of newbies, but looking around I didn't see any of them feeling intimidated or pissed off - everybody got into the spirit of things and got behind the team all the way.It may have been a bit quiet in places and sometimes the same people starting the singing, but this will change if you allow the newbies and one offs in there regularly. The atmosphere can only get better still.THAT'S what the EE is about, and why I hope they do the right thing and make it like that for the rest of the season.

Roe Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Yes I think that the east end added to the atmosphere and it was definitely good that it was full but I'm sick of people knocking the dolman stand fans because some decide to move down to the front slightly before the end of the game. Have you seen how long it takes to get out of the Dolman at the end of the game? While every other stand is clear at the end most of us are still stood at the back of the stand queueing up to leave..I don't even know why it annoys me because I'm not one of the ones that goes early anyway!

Weav Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I thought the atmosphere was pretty good last night, Watford made 5 minutes of noise but i was in the EE and sung all the way through. It was a poor match so there wasnt much to shout about on the field but we are top of the league and thought the EE proved what a valuable asset it is to the lads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidercity1987 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I didn't think there was that great an atmosphere in the EE last night, at least not in the section behind pillar 3. I do hope everyone joining us for next season will be there to participate in the atmosphere, and not just to experience it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrs Court Red Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 It was crap last night considering how many people were in there.I hope next season is better with 1000 season ticket holders, made of people that actually want to be in there and are actually proactive in their vocal support!

forbespm Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 i was in the atyeo last night and in all fairness i couldn't hear the east end.i thought the atmosphere last night was ok.not brilliant,but not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilksi Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 i thought it was crap last night, worst atmosphere in there all season.. if your going in the east sing and join in and don't moan or look around at the singers like there scum. if your not there to sing **** off, overflow part timers who are only there for the glory, your welcome if you sing if you don't there are plenty of platinium seats you can sit down in for your one game of the season thought at the last min you'd go down and watch t*wats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmpowell Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Judging by some of the comments it sounds like I may have misappraised the situation then! Considering the type of people who were in there who wouldn't know the songs etc, I thought it was very good.I was stood 8 seats in from the netting and all around me was singing, so perhaps I was just lucky.Sorry if I got it wrong.

It's like walking into someones home and then telling them how they should act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WellyCiderHead Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 was absolutely crap, people turning around giving u funny looks when u try and keep a song going.

bringbacktherobin Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Any of the regulars in the ee reading this.Go to the back block of H and G, this is where the flags will be set up and others know about meeting here. This is where we have been all season and there is no need to move around the stand just because it is overflow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riaz Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 EE was rubbish last night. I was at the back and kept seeing people looking back at us - you could tell what they were thinking....... that we were all thugs or from a nuthouse! Most of them should have been sat in the williams/atyeo, so they could watch the game in "peace" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hull game was much better in there. I had people near me moaning they couldn't see the game cos of big George and also people moaning at the players instead of supporting them. If they don't like what the EE is all about then don't ###### come in there and try and ruin it for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frome Valley Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Seems ludicrous that now when the East End support is most needed the regulars are saying its going missing when virtually everything on this thread could be sorted by sales in advance starting now for Norwich, Wolves and Stoke and allowing season ticket holders who have transferred for next season in now.

KnowleUtd City Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I am an East End season ticket holder and I actually thought that it wasn't that bad last night considering it was used as overflow, at least a good percentage stood all game, The Barnsley game earlier this season when there was a similar number in there was far worse in terms of noise and large numbers of floating fans sat in silence all game.Hopefully next season will be great full of like minded people, I would urge all the people on this board who sit in the other stands that moan about people not joining in with songs etc to come and join us in the east end next season.Come on you Reds!
