| Quote ="Danril"I don't think there could be anything but good things come from congregating singers together but people don't want to move.
The way things are going atmosphere wise this season there may well be a moment where people decide to make a change. If the singing section gets up a bit for the next couple of games and make a point of making some noise then maybe that will attract people from elsewhere in the ground.
Negativity breeds negativity. We need a bit of positivity in the stands as well as on the pitch.'"
I understand that i dont want to move to the Britannia mainly bercause i go with my family and there are a few kids we bring along so would rather be in the Family stand. I am not really happy with our new seats so have moved back to our old seats which are unresrved but as Fifi says if the club want to make a suggestion for singers to congregate in some seats maybe some people will be willing to move. even just getting 10 singers together in the Riverside stand would improve my enjoyment. I would love to be with a few people who want to sing and hopefully inspire others around us.
Something has to be done i just hope the club can try something.

| Dont forget though that traditionally the Kilner bank stand always housed the singers and noiser fans while the riverside tended to be the more quieter fans so that probably explains why its harder for you over there to get some singers.

| Playing music when we score isnt something new- the players at one time used to have there own theme tune played when they scored- thormans was spandau ballets gold!
It happens at a lot of grounds that music is played when the home team scores.
why are you objecting to it now?

I am happy to move seats but would wish to stay in the same stand. I think may others would if the club were seen to be getting behind the idea.

| I've never liked music after a try......i hate it, in times gone by though they have waited for the crowd to cheer before playing it and its not just after a try its the bits during the game that we have suddenly introduced that i dont see the need for.

| Barracuda by Heart?
Something by They Might Be Giants?
Apart from "When Wrigley puts his little foot in the centre of the ball" I'm struggling to think of any songs that are relevant to the club or players.

Surely Bird House in Your Soul is our next club anthem!
It wouldn't actually be a bad chant!

| Stadium atmosphere is a modern age problem caused by the introduction of all-seater stadia and the human psyche.
Because we buy a ticket for a specific seat, we feel the need to sit on it. Therefore the crowd is spread out and the pockets of singers further apart. We don't want to move to a different seat because we need the 'comfort' of the regularity.
When we're away from home this comfort isn't there so different people crowd together and thus an atmosphere is formed.

| Something definitely needs to be done about improving the atmosphere at home games. What's happened to the guys at the back of the stand that used to start most of the chants off? We're at the top of the league looking as consistent as ever in SL yet hardly anyone wants to get behind the boys which is unbelievable when you hear the players say how much it lifts them to hear us singing and cheering them on. I'm not having a go at you guys at the back but it's more likely to start a chant going if you're at the back chanting over peoples heads rather than someone at the front chanting to the pitch alone. How about some of our pre recorded chants over the tannoy to start off some atmosphere?

| most of us are still there ponner,albeit in depleted numbers.
and we do start chants but as this thread has alluded to most chants get drowned out by music blaring out or big g's drum being constantly banged,as we saw at cas yesterday if the team is playing well and lots of people are grouped together then people will join in with the chants and songs.
at home games too many people are spread out all over the ground.

2. Create a singing section
3. People won't move.
4. Goto step 1.
Repeat indefinitely.

| Singing section is already set up, everyone knows where it is.
Let's be right, the club and players have already stated hundreds of times that a noisy crowd helps them so I don't think they need to say it again. It's down to people to decide to go to the singing section. It's on them. Not the club and not the singing section. The people that want to sing have to move to the singing section, simple as that.
