I agree with what you say basically.. sadly with the season ticket multi deals (good idea - terribly executed) it appears we are stuck with these prices for the foreseeable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 We noticed and mentioned just how poor the atmosphere was yesterday, nothing to do with the ground being big as it’s not usually quite as quiet as it was yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl Be Back Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Current circumstances, ground is too big for the club. Apart from the occassional blip it has been for a long time. Other factors (pricing, etc) have started to add to this but that is the fundamental issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 It’s boring . Every year we are boring . The games aren’t exciting and we never get anywhere . The prices put all bar the season tickets holders off so it’s the same faces watching the same bore fest every week . Our half empty past it’s sell by date ground also doesn’t help with noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Maybe it's due to the fact that anyone who sings too loud, shouts, claps or stands up get chucked out or banned. The atmosphere is what the club made it. Sit down, be quiet and make it easy for SYP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now would be a good time to knock down and rebuild the west stand if we are going to stay at Hillsborough for the long term. There won’t be a crowd over 28k this season so we don’t even need the seats in the west stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread to think what he'll be like when he's 60+. Probably like most of us on here . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every game now we get the usual 'is this a library' from the away end, and they're not wrong, its silent at times. I moved my ST from the Kop to the North this season thinking it would be better on there and its even worse to be honest, far more abusing our own players and can count on one hand the times theres a song started on the north this season. Are we the same at away games now as well? Only been to Huddersfield away this season and that wasn't as good as it used to be a few years ago when I went away every week. Anyone else noticed this ?a Stop moaning about it and do something to improve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VBQ24 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 20 years of abject sh*te. Looked for a time like we were finally out of the woods only to all fall through. In the same time Pigs go from looking like they were headed to League Two to overtaking us for a second spell in the Premier League and looking like they are there to stay. High prices. Little hope of it changing any time soon. People are sick and tired of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one starts singing without the band so it is nonsense to suggest the band ruins the atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the North, row 41 lepp end. There's about 4 or 5 of us who try to create an atmosphere around there, and a small group just below us. I think the problem is with it being season tickets only, especially for the bigger matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember many games at Hillsborough when there’s been a good atmosphere with only 23k in the ground. If we were pricing games correctly there’d have been around 27k there yesterday and a better atmosphere. its not just home games the last 2-3 away games had been without atmosphere ,I think its not just us I think its partly to how teams play these days , there isn't too much end to end football ,football in played like chess and very tactically driven,few managers now take risks .

royalowlisback Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 North Stand is where most of the atmosphere comes from, but it is half empty because nobody is allowed to sit on it. Plus, the football - in general, is pretty crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
