Support at our last home games

[WORKSOPBLADE]

As the man says … let’s do all we can to push the team over the line.

 

[FTPE]

Get Kop fully open lads!!

Good video, the fans make a huge difference to performances on the pitch. Let’s play our part!

I streamed the Norwich match. I thought we were great. I'm sure everyone says this about their time but when the atmosphere is intense and electric in a firey match, there's just no place to me like the Lane.

Been to many away match in my time and experienced some tense affairs but it never quite had the same feeling. There's a reason a lot of people from other clubs like coming to the Lane.

If they’re not 4-0 up after 20 mins against the bottom of the league they can F off …

I have standards and expectations

 

[Katzenjammer]

Knocking the ball into the net more times than the other team is going to be crucial in the next 6 matches.

My message to the players

 

[Stegosaurus]

Hi Stegosaurus here,

Is the support crucial? I'm sure the team can play just as well without a few hundred fat bald men in the kop calling them shit when they miss from 6 yards.

I expect they would perform to the same standard if there's 20,000 there or 2,000

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

There's nothing wrong with fat bald men

Support wise it felt like a mid October sort of game where we hope to climb above Coventry into 6th place

Probably because that's how we played

Agreed if we got a 2nd and or 3rd the atmosphere would have been raising the roof although we seem to be creating a habit of professionally playing a 1-0 they aren't good for the nerves!

 

[metalblade]

A better team would have punished us.

 

[Bladesman]

A better team would have punished us.

True but if we had been more clinical we should have punished Wigan in the first half.

 

[ancientblade]

if we had been able to bring another striker such as archer in this january we would have been up by now reverse of that is that if we hadnt had illiman we wouldnt be in the top 6 we should have won that game 5 - 0 today

I can 100% say that backing off the sidelines makes a difference.....school sports day many many years ago I drew the short straw and ended up doing the 1500, I'd be 12 or 13. The year before I'd run it and come a distant last...no other sap would do it.
This time, coming off the last bend my mate Ollie was about 10 yards in front of me, he was a cross country runner and stick thin, I was a bit more portly back then....anyway, ten yards or so to make up, few people left as it was the last event of the day and my house captains, both upper 6th formers, so 17/18 literally roared me on in the back straight, running parallel with me, encouraging me all the way. It really made a difference to me, I was determined it wouldn't be for nothing. Safe to say I dug deep, found some determination I never knew I had, driven not to let them down.
I passed Ollie, with apparent ease who looked shocked to see me go past him, and beat him to the line finishing .......this time.....2nd last.
So, multiply that by 25-30,000 and yes, it does make a bloody big difference.

Hi Stegosaurus here,

False

Other teams managed to do well without fans in the arena. Teams with louder and better support like us.

We'd have gone down with or without fans in the ground because Wilder was too stubborn to change his tactics even though they had been found out.

Your mate was Ollie Norwood don't lie.... I'm just shocked it took you so long to go past him.
