Will have been shit, poor, like a library, singers will have been kidney punched. Etc etc.

I think about performing, if anything I think about it too much. Then when the time comes to get up and be loud, I can't get up.

It's like stage fright, flaccid. I've built up too much to the sense of occasion.

I wish people would stop making it into a big deal. It might get better on it's own, if I feel like the pressure is off.

Because nerves?

And why the hell did Wilder decide to play Sharp/McGoldrick/Madine/Hogan (delete as appropriate) up front? He should have played Sharp/McGoldrick/Madine/Hogan in attack instead (delete as appropriate).

I'm guessing he sound of a drum or a loud rendition of a catchy but shite sixties pop song would make them worse!

Duffy. To be or not to be.....,

 

[wesleysnipesmen]

I’ve been banging on about our brilliant atmosphere to Mick Foley for weeks as well, how embarrassing

 

[Hodgesleftpeg]

I know where the referee lives. I’ll bung him a few quid to give a really stupid decision in Brentford’s favour in the first 5 minutes.

There, sorted, Kop will be rocking

 

[Northyorksblade]

Or we could get some of those clacker thingies a la Leicester/Fulham/Huddersfield.............











Only kidding

 

[west_yorks_blade]

What about those knobheads that left 10 minutes before the end? Cost us three points. Bastards.

 

[knowsnowt]

Itll be fine.
I'm gonna run on the pitch in the third minute in a bretford shirt and deck misen. Should liven things up nicely.

 

[ekke287]

In hindsight we should've played [Duffy / Dowell / McGoldrick / Hogan / Madine / Sharp / Cranie], then we would've definitely [Won / Lost / Drawn] and [would / wouldn't] [now / still] be [Top of the League / 3rd / Champions League].

I blame [Wilder / Knill / McCabe / HRH / The Fans / My dog].

 

[Davalon]

I blame McCabe myself.

 

[Lmaobob]

I think this is a real factor. HUGE factor. It is for me anyway... Being sat down at a match proper takes the feeling of singing your heart out away from me.

Home matches, everyone bar the people at the top of the kop are sat down, i just don't feel like singing when i'm sat down

If i stand up, i'm hounded by everyone and told to sit down. BRING IN SAFE STANDING

 

[Sean Thornton]

We just need more superfans

 

[JimW1889]

Once the pitched battles between the Madine in and Madine out crowds stop the atmosphere should pick right up

Shit, i thought we were playing on Wednesday

 

[Stretch]

Those program sellers need to keep their voices down n'all. They show unproper supporters like me up.

 

[Hodgesleftpeg]

Better not be.. I’m looking forward to the quiz night int dragons tap that night!! Love a quiz n craft beer me!!
And there’s more atmosphere in there than down at Lane

[SUFC Guy]

We need a band!

Seems to be working for the pigs

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

I'm being taken out for lunch by a supplier at lunchtime so am going to abuse that hospitality and then stay out all afternoon.

Therefore the atmosphere around me will be amazing and I'll be a one man party for the game!!

Referee on Saturday was same guy who did Derby game. Think we did a job on him then. Tomorrow's referee did our games at home to Wigan and away at ……. Villa. Watch that high foot Billy.

 

[Ricky]

Programmes Three Quid should be recruited as lead chant starter for the back of the Kop and given a pay rise.

Nobody would dare not join in with a true Bramall Lane legend.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

I think we need a Band

Surely the Vuvuzuela would be an excellent addition to the matchday atmosphere? No takers?

Having been in a Mumbai cricket ground with 30,000 of the fuckers NOOOOI!

I don’t think anyone is suggesting we have some shitty band or hideous clapper devices. But the point on the atmosphere needing to improve does resonate for me – and it must do for folk like Wilder too if he feels the need to repeatedly bring it up. This isn’t about non-stop noise, but about doing what we currently do marginally louder and more frequently. It doesn’t feel like a huge ask, but the slightest suggestion of needing to improve seems to immediately rough people up the wrong way as though they’ve taken it personally.

This was raised in League 1 and the main message then as to why it wasn’t important was that it would be solved by promotion. Now the response seems to be “there never was a problem, so stop talking about it”. I’m more proud and positive of this club now than at any other point in the last 10 years. We have a fantastic style of football praised by many away from the club. We have a Blade as manager, a Blade as captain, and a likeable team pushing well above its weight. It’s being matched by the current numerical support. I don’t feel like that’s being matched by the current atmosphere.

I lay the blame squarely at the foot of the Mormons.

The BLUT will be rocking.
