We've had crap home atmospheres at some games since I started going nearly 40 years ago.
We've had good home atmospheres at some games since I started going nearly 40 years ago.
Atmospheres in general aren't as good as they used to be. We still get regular plaudits from other fans for our home and away support however.
Some of the spoilt child whingeing on this subject is more annoying than atmospheres like yesterday.
I would love the atmospheres I experienced on the West Terrace and in G and H block years ago but things have changed. Support at home is now spread out and diluted, and those type of areas don't exist and would probably be discouraged by SAG or whoever.
Wish it was better by all means, but some of the stuff on this subject is cringe. There's plenty of things in life that aren't what they used to be.
I love noisy atmospheres and have enjoyed some recent away games for that, but I'm far more worried about the team getting what I think they deserve this season, and as the season end nears I think you'll naturally get better atmospheres as we've seen in many previous seasons.
The atmosphere was regularly criticised during the relegation from this league, but the crowd response in that Barnsley game was phenomenal under the circumstances.
