| Hi, I am looking at going to stand in the Princess street stand for 0ne game only,the catalan game.
I was just wondering if any other of the WRE supporters would be intersted in a move to the Princess street stand for ONE GAME ONLY!
The game is on the telly and with the sky cameras/microphones,they dont pick up the barmy army and noise that we make.
So who is interested in going under the gantry for this one game?
and yes i understand that this has been tried and failed before but we have our fare share of floating fans who'll be watching on the telly,what would you rather hear?...the odd call for offside or a bit of noise?..Would that not want the floating fans to think i want a bit of this and start coming back?
Thoughts please.

| This of course has been tried unsuccessfully before. For some reason the majority of Cas fans prefer to stand behind the posts wheras almost everywhere else the touchline view is favoured. That said I've stood in the PS since they stopped charging extra for the privilege and new blood would be welcome to improve the atmosphere and probably the penalty count. Those who stick around for the Leeds game will also enjoy the greater opportunities for loiner baiting.

| Most Camera shots don't show Princess Street, so filling that side will make the attendance look small on tv.

| Think the thing most likely to encourage the floating supporters to return to watching games live is the fact we've won our opening 3 games and sit top of the league!
I'd agree that the SKY cameras don't tend to focus on the Princess St stand, if anywhere, the place that we need to fill is the railway end as this is picked up by the cameras. This is often the end that away supporters go but if the away support is minimal as will be the case this Saturday there's often hardly anyone there.

| No noice at railway end either though. No roof. If more Cas fans in the wheldon road end sang it would be heard by the cameras.

| Ill be there and hopefully we can make some good noise for SKY and make it a positive advert for Cas but please lets not give the SKY pundits too much grief as we want them on our side and singing our praises.
Lets hope the lads keep delivering on the pitch to give us plenty to cheer. Come on Cas.
UP THE TIGERS!!!!

| Why don't we all go with four or five scarecrows hanging from long poles strapped to our shoulders. That will make the crowd look huge.

| To be honest, from the 'ever so colourful language' used towards Silverwood on Sunday, it's perhaps for the best if we aren't heard on TV.

| I will be in the Princess street stand for the Cats game,and there will be a few others too who will try and get the crowd going.
If your a WRE person who may wish to try it(i understand its not everybody's cup of tea)i will see you there!
There will be about 15 of us at least and hoping that others will get involved.
After the game i will be going home and watching/listening to the game on sky + and hope to hear some good posotive clean chanting.
WRE fans,lets whip the ground up into a frenzy of noise(like the magic weekend)which was fantastic.

Stand right under the gantry. I'm not sure where we will be yet. Might go PS stand when Cas attacking railway and wheldon road when attacking that way. I'm looking forward to listening when I get home too. Was quiet during Hudds game.

| This is a bad idea i tell you why......is the PS stand is full it means we have 3 oter sides which look empty. lets face it the entire contingent of Catalan fans could drop in on one parachute and we are expecting a low crowd anyway with the ficture being on SKY, therefore, if we have a core of 6k fans show up lets say 800 in the main stand and of the remaining 5200, 3k are in the PS stand then the rest fo the ground will look empty (mind you still bussier than Quins and Wales) so it looks bad on the club! what needs to happen is SKY need to reposition their microphones so that the WRE seems like it is in the same postcode.

| I dont think we are going to get the all of the Wheldon Road regulars to switch nor is that the intention I think all we are trying to do is get 50 or so of the more vocal fans to make some noise where it can be heard and show Cas in a good light in what would otherwise be a drab atmosphere for the Sky sports viewers and I think for the players this will be good as a bit of positive chanting can put a bit of extra juice in the tank when they are flagging so where ever you stand lets get behind the boys and MAKE SOME NOISE!
UP THE TIGERS!

| The WRE fans won't move, simple as that. You will get a small bunch of fans that will support you in the PS but most others won't even contemplate it. I'm not sure what else has been done to get fans to move, but a couple of posts on here and casforum isn't enough. Not everyone uses the board everyday for a start. You may get plenty of support from 10 people that use the boards regularly and it may seem like you have got some support on the move but there's another 2k fans to get the message to. Many people will go in to the ground on saturday un-aware of the move.

| It's always a dull atmosphere against Catalans and if the 'change enders' move to the Railway End at Half Time it will be like a morgue.
"Why do you move to the Railway End at Half Time ?'
"Cos I wanna see the tries'
"Can't you see em from this end then ?'
"It's a far better atmosphere in here if we all stay together"
"I always change ends"
"Why ?"
"Err, I just always have..."
"Surely it's better for the team if we make more noise in here"
"I pay my £20 I will stand where I want..."
"But we give the opposing fans and team an edge"
"I pay my £20 I will stand where I want"
As someone said earlier, some fans were born changing ends, they do it because they have always done it, no other reason. Unfortunately, doing what's best for the team isn't within their reasoning. There is no reasoning.

| No you can't see the tries clearly from the opposite end. I like standing in one end of Princess St then moving to the other.

Over the years i have stood nearly everywhere in the ground, now days i tend to go and watch the match in the supporters bar, though i might watch a half in the WRE. I always used to stand in the wre all game but there so many idiots in there now and i go with my mate who takes his young lad. I'm sorry if me standing elsewhere to where you like annoys you but i will make my noise in support of the team whereever suits me best.
In relation to the thread topic out of all the places i have stood in the cas ground the princess street is by far the most boring and my least favourite place to watch the match, so i'm afraid i wont be joining you any time soon, one way or another its behind the sticks for me.
