..... makes more noise than any other ground.

I've read every thread denigrating our crowd and the lack of 'drum assisted tempo', the artistic content of the chants and the sub 40,000 crowds ..... how dare we after decades of success :rolleyes:

But I've been on every current PL ground and imo there isn't another that can match our 'total ground' support ..... sure the little drummer boy with the Palace 'Ultras' keeps banging away all game and the Leicester 'under 15's clack brigade' beat themselves into sticky underpants but wtf.

When the SOL, as with Chelsea & Everton games, decides it's time to stand up and be counted there isn't a better crowd.

They could say it but it wouldn't be true.

I was at Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool when they were at home to Sunderland and in with either a shot of the title or qualifying for Europe.

On no occassion was it anywher near the noise as when we avoided relegation.

The only thing to match it was when Everton beat us, 4-1 iirc, at Goodison on their way to winning the league ...... incredible tbh.

I take your word for it mate as I have not been there to judge for myself. However, this arguement is never won nor lost with my mag mates so fuck knows how it would go with other supporters.
