The atmosphere today at the sol


Sheff Utd play off was superb, it had that constant "din" even when there wasn't singing and shouting.

The Mags 2-2 gets slightly over rated. Build up to kick off was electric, as were first ten mins. Then it was quiet until we pulled a goal back towards the end of the first half. Obviously the noise for the equaliser was mental. And was very loud until the end as we searched for a winner.

Build up pre match to the 2-2 was ferocious
 
It sounded sensational. From minute one to the end.

Only one that comes close from a consistency point of view was the 3-0 vs Everton when we relegated the Mags. As soon as we went 2-0 up, it was party time.
 
It won us that game, it was a triumph! Up there with the best and I've heard atmospheres you people wouldn't believe. Celtic fans on fire off the shoulder of the Jock Stein stand. I watched flares glitter in the dark near the Ashton Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in St. James' park. Time to die.
 
I was at the Big Weekend getting a mobile signal once every 30 mins... torture.

Did we play the Europa League music?

I've never heard noise like it when we were singing wise men say. Especially after the match

Wise men was louder at the start.


Last time I heard my ears crackling like today, including the quiet(er) periods, was Chelsea at Roker in the FA Cup quarter final back in 1992. It wasn't just the loud periods, it was the quieter ones when the noise was still around as well.

Felt like a derby game, booing whenever they had the ball. Was only Palmer who tried to play through it.

I was very glad the number 7 went off. Him and Palmer were causing us problems down our left all the time but thankfully we dealt with it really well most of the time as well despite their obvious quality
 
I’m exhausted me. Peaked with the bus welcome, went into the ground at 1415 and had some food, got myself together for kick off, was at my wits end by 60 minutes.

The world’s longest lap of appreciation took me to the end. Managed a couple pints then had to come home. Hasn’t sunk in yet.

I've had a ST since the SoL opened and that was different today..

Mags games, play offs, big cup games etc... been class at times , and league one days was half full and a depressing place to visit...but today? Different. Absolutely class. Positive from 1st minute. No prisoners.. brilliant. Emotional actually

That 10 minutes of added time nearly killed me, brought out all the emotions at full time.

Only thing I'd say would be that the Sheff utd game was a night match, always great whether at the SoL or Roker park. Also, the mist that was hanging around that night just gave gave it a great atmosphere.

Today was absolutely fantastic, everything I'd hoped it would b.
 
Gutted to have missed it, I watched it from my hotel room in Nashville, was kicking and heading every ball. The atmosphere sounded IMMENSE on TV and the commentators on peacock were blown away by the crowd.
