we were very poor though,apart from the Boothy send off

[huddy]

Got to agree on that , recently our supports been awful and I think its down to a certain section of singers rellocating to the FML I hope they have changed their minds and get back in the singing section for next season as I dread to thin what our atmospheres are going to be like otherwise.

[Belfast_Boy]

Yea, when you're sat with them in the FML it seems a lot louder and a lot better, but today in the LB i couldn't hear a word from them and i could barely see them. Apart from Wardle, i clocked him in his blue shirt

[jackhtfc1992]

hope they stay up! why don't town ever do free coach travel to away matches?

does that mean if 20-30 of the singers are in the FM Lower the rest of you left in the antich have zips on your mouths?

I don't sit in the Antich personally but it looks to me like the 20-30 supporters in the FML are the ones that start the chants up and I think even if you could get 500 singers in the FML the atmosphere wouldn't carry round the ground as he roof is too high.

[digwon]

its just a bad ground design,that seems to cater better for the away fans atmosphere than the home fans

[huddy]

Deffo the case although I have always thought the Kilner created a decent enough atmosphere anyway and many a away fan I know has commented on our great support having come away from our stadium when our fans have been in full voice in the Kilner, IMO most grounds have more singers next to the away end so I really can't see the FML ever working

[digwon]

i think not putting the floodlights on the roof,and wasting space not building the corners in spoils the Galpharm,a simple design like leicester makes segregation easier,stick the away fans in a corner

I've always wondered why they put those floodlights on the top of the Anitch and only put them on at last seasons L**ds match ? Does anyone know why they are there now? Because i personally haven't seen them on scince.

End of season games with nowt to play for are never going to generate great atmospheres

Which floodlights on top of antich? cant recall ever seeing them.

[luke2htfc]

they are rarely on, this was taken during a rugby league international

[terrier19]

Never noticed them before, i assume with the way the stands are built being all differant heights it wouldnt be practical to have them on each stand and do away with the floodlight towers in each corner.

Grounds with lights like this tend to be the bowl one that are the same height round the whole stadium

Exactly. If other people want to sing then i'm sure they can open thier mouths and get on with it. Main problem at Town is folk want to change the atmosphere, but nobody can be bothered to do anything about it.

Us lot are trying to do something about it now, and the reasons for going in the FM Lower have been explained time & time again.

We're not interested if someone sat in the DG Lower can or cant hear us, we're not there to entertain them, we're there to get behind the team. If the players can hear us, thats all that matters.

We (Brighton) didn't have free coach travel.

[NookTerrier]

It was only free if they lost to Bristol rovers, they only brought two coaches if my memory serves well?

[ThreeLions]

yes only 2 smith

[terrier19]

i thought they were bringing loads of coaches (like Leeds did) as the section of car park was cordoned off when i walked through it at about 2.15.

Anyone know why it wasnt used?
