Double edged sword

When the team is playing badly....
Agree but I dont think its even playing badly but more when on occasion we revert to keeping the ball without attacking. Not just us either. Other fans are quiet when the game is played in frankly a fkin boring manner. And its at its most annoying when your team is behind and they still do it. Hard to get behind any team when it looks like they're just strolling about and not trying to win.
Even worse for us as we know how devastating our boys can be with their tails up. Still cant believewhat I witnessed in those cl games. Bloody awful. And then against Arsenal, Man city, Chelscum, etc just breath taking performances.

Good volume matters. People say it doesn't but look at West Ham, twice as many fans half as much noise and they're not getting points at home like before. We'll find out when it opens.

I can't wait for the first evening game to be played at the new stadium, there's something special about an evening game at WHL, with a much bigger capacity and assisted acoustics it should (hopefully) be a cauldron of noise and intimidating for the opposition

My dad used to play golf on a saturday so would usually take me to midweek games when i was a kid. Always special for me watching us play under the lights.

I've had a theory for years that the police control box over the away supporters section amplifies their chants

:grumpy:

I'm glad they have kept that intention with the newer stadium design as I thought the original design had a much more pronounced undulation in the roof design.

Need drums to create a proper intimidating atmosphere. I'm not volunteering, just saying.
