Man City v L&&ds.....15 shots on target.....Town v Brighouse Ladies....2 shots on target. When they realise its an entertainment form we might get some cheers from the stands. Right now its like paying £30 mid-winter to have your eyeballs punctured by hot needles.

Gone quiet here, Mids. Ironic, given your criticisms of the group. Not a lot more to say to be honest. Not entirely sure why you're so obsessed with my thoughts when others have expressed worse. But hey ho here's to a better experience over the coming weeks...especially on the field. I’m still interested to hear what specifically you’re telling CL to “give up”…or is it just nonsense melodrama ? 🤷♂️

I’d be quite interested as well. Could be anything from giving up going in the South Stand to a Jim Jones type mass suicide poisoning session in the St Andrews Road car park.

Gone quiet here, Mids. Ironic, given your criticisms of the group. Not a lot more to say to be honest. Not entirely sure why you're so obsessed with my thoughts when others have expressed worse. But hey ho here's to a better experience over the coming weeks...especially on the field. Maybe because this is the second thread so far this season where you have gone out of your way to have a pop at the CL (First one actually started by you (https://downatthemac.proboards.com/thread/116289/sing-when-winning)) and in both, from that I can see you offer no suggestions or similar to try help improve the atmosphere. Being involved in the CL I personally have no issues with criticism, but at least offer an opinion and how things could be improved, or ever offer your services to come in and show us how its done. The CL was set up 7 years ago, and with a LOT of hard work has done wonders to transform the atmosphere on the whole down at the Town ground. Without going over the whole history we started in the North Stand as a small group of people and in time managed to develop and atmosphere in there which then convince the club to move us to the South Stand (something many other entities at Town tried and failed to do...) and that, couple with the performances on the pitch resulted in the atmosphere at Town being one of the best in the country, all while the people involved were taking abuse of many fans who thought it would never work. We kept going and we did what we did. I think there is often confusion that the CL and South Stand are one. This isn't the case. The CL as it stands is literally 7 lads who put a lot of time and effort into match days (and beyond) to try their best to help create an atmosphere. 7 lads cannot do this alone, we have a 'core' of maybe 30 down the front who like what we do, but after that it falls to others in the South Stand to create the noise. We may be the catalysts for the majority of songs in there, but of the 1500 other people in there don't join in what can yo do? Cant go round forcing fold to sing. English crowds are reactionary. As much as we've done to try change that at Town it is still the case for 90% of fans that attend. If the team are playing well, on the front foot the atmosphere will follow, if like the Cov game its boring it wont. Pretty simply really and it has been like that for years. The CL can try to build something, but if others don't join in it will sound quiet unless you sit directly with us. There is always noise down there in the 'core' but 40 or so voices isn't going to travel well. As others have said in here, if you want to come in and help create an atmosphere then feel to do so, or even just offer some opinion on how to get the other 1500 in the South Stand to sign at all times regardless, because that is the ultimate aim for us and you might be able to speed that along for us. Until then though, probably best to keep your opinions to yourself otherwise people may form the opinion you are a little bit obsessed with the CL.

The main problem for me is that we attack the sponsors and family stand in the 2nd half rather than the main singers / home section.
Must be One of the only, if not only, clubs in England to attack the wrong end in the 2nd half.
It’s a long standing issue.
No one ha ever been able to solve and unfortunately it doesn’t look like it ever will be solved. (If we could do it we’d have done it by now)
