S36 OWL Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 What about Dwarf 10 pin bowling at half time on the pitch.? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heeleyowl Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Is this a library chants at every single home game now (even from Hull fans!). Needs some club engineering re seating allocations. 1. Move the ‘tough guys’ away from the end of the North (are they still there haven’t heard them for ages?). 2. Move away fans down to bottom tier. Hillsborough always looks so empty on TV and it will take away their magnificent view from on high and reduce the amplification effect up at the back of the stand. 3. Have a good run at the playoffs.

Have a good run at the playoffs. the trouble with your number 1 is IF you move the 'tough guys from the north to the kop, the club loses gate money doing so. also it seem the n/w is 'their choice' as opposed to sitting quietly in the kop (that you can't hear in the n/w) with all the families. till the club creates a proper family stand at a sensible price, then you'll not alter the kop.

I remember a bloke used to like to take his shirt of at games and he now has a 3 year ban. The PC brigade and complete lack of entertaining football has caused the atmosphere at Hillsborough. We have to sit there quiet so we don't upset the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all Wednesday Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 22 hours ago, We'llNeverBeMastered said: Just watching the Manchester derby, it got me thinking, so many clubs stand behind their goal, we must be one of the only ones that don't. I generally think standing has some form of influence on an atmosphere. What is it with nobody wanting to stand on the kop at Hillsborough? I think we need to be proactive now because home matches are becoming more of a chore now and in my homes opinion, it does have an effect on the players. How about closing the upper section of the Kop and potentially the Grandstand when the capacity is not required? Other clubs do similar and it groups supporters closer together nearer to the pitch. I guess this may create more atmosphere?! May be difficult to close the Grandstand though given the facilities it offers and how it is used. Just a thought...

S63 Owl Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Get it right on the pitch and the atmosphere and attendances will improve - really is that simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhubarb n Custard Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Make tickets on the Kop £22 all games and include a free bar. Guarantee the atmosphere will improve and none of em will give a flying fùck if we lose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geedee Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Sadly the reality is that we have a ground that was originally designed for 50k crowds it's just too big and open for average second division games. In all my years of watching Wednesday I can't remember a great atmosphere at Hillsborough with a crowd of less than 30k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
