Re: South stand shite

well done to every one who sang and backed the lads today regardless where they sit keep it going and we"ll get there in the end
 
Steward came to us and said anyone who doesn't sit down wont get in for the derby!! :)

Exactly what I was told and he was taken to task over it.

"Stand and you won't be here for the Newcastle game" what a f***ing tit. As if that twat will keep me out.

Nice bait spug. I was in the south stand and it was bouncin so fuck off ya boring cunt

I'll ignore the abuse but the stewards and coppers were in the front few rows telling us we will be barred from the derby if we didn't sit down.
 
I was in SWC today and the SWC made more noise than the South Stand. I could hear the South Stand whenever it sung and the SWC sung more today especially in the second half.

Well done everybody though.
 
"He shags who he wants" :oops::oops::oops::oops:

Haha made me chuckle that one. The stewards and law tried to make people sit mid way through first half got a quick verse of "stand up of you hate the mags" and that was that.

Is the atmosphere better than last season? Yes. Will people accept that it's not gonna be mental noise all the time? No.
Are people having a good time in the South Stand standing and singing a bit? I'd say overall that's a yes as well.
Will people on RTG continue to moan about the noise/lack of it? Nailed on YES!

It's like a f***ing playground this place like. We're louder than you, your shit. Blah blah blah.

Tbh this is the only decent response. I'm in the south now and thought it was class but I've previously criticised the swc for thinking they're amazing, fuck it, there's lads all over the SoL who did what they could to sing their hearts out for the lads and they all deserve praise!
 
I sat in the South Stand for the cup game and expected it to be far better when the league games came around.

I guess it's still early days, versus Liverpool I could barely hear the South Stand, although that had more to do with the volume of the away support above me in the North Stand than anything else.

Today however with a far far quieter Wigan following i was really expecting the noise to travel and for the South Stand to raise the roof today, however other than the odd chant it just didn't happen from what i could see/hear.

There seems to be little pockets of lads and lasses that really want to make it work but they are so far apart it doesn't join up into a good sound, there appears to be a lot of folks sat in the south stand that have no interest in it being a singing stand.

Definitley a work in progress and one that i really hope comes together and works out.

Just my opinion like, no doubt others will fell differently
 
Nathan if a man walked upto you and shouted in your ear 'How many empty seats ' it would be loud

If the same man stood 50 yards from you and shouted 'How many empty seats ' it would be quieter

And I'm sure the ones in the south stand would say the opposite. When you're in amongst it, you're always going to think it's louder. For what it's worth I thought the south stand was good yet again, I also think it's better than the SWC having been in the SWC for the past 4 seasons.
 
Anyone have any comment on me cyncial view about them making you sit eventually....is it me cynical bollocks or is it a collective not even wanting to consider the horror of the prospect lol ;)
 
I think the best thing to do is for the clubs fans to continue to criticise the clubs fans.
 
SWC was very poor today like. I'm in the south stand, which was also canny flat today for the most part; probably due to the dross on the pitch…

Reckon the mags game will galvanise the stand and hopefully it'll kick on from there, especially if we manage to win.

I have nowt to do with the south stand, dont sit there, didnt try, dont know what was said 'privately' about turning a blind eye etc apart from what ive heard on here but.....as a cynic and a realist, i think this will happen more and more. Seriously, i reckon you lads whove been promised being allowed to stand, long term youve been conned into going there. After a while of the novelty of it, theyll make you sit.....just my opinon like

They come out and do one "sweep" once up the stairs about 10 mins into games. It's a liability thing, basically if some twat falls and hurts themselves he cant sue the club cos he has been told to sit down. Once they have done the first "sweep" and can say everyone has acknowledged they have been told to sit (ie by sitting) they dont bother anymore.

They cant just let everyone stand; too many lawyers and unless we can get them all in one place at one time and kill them all together you'll get sued or sent down for starting a cull.

Im just thinking about what happens the first time people in the MS, or the east or west etc stand and get told to sit down, and they say "youre letting them stand."

Dodgy ground for the club like

But the SWC have always stood and that has never happened/been an issue.

Its the ground they have to walk though, and tbh there is much better reason in the other stands: on the walkway between upper and lower they have the wheelchair areas, and the height between the walkway and the last row of seats on the lower is low so if the folk at the back of the lower tier stand the guys in wheelchairs cant see. and those lazy fucks never stand.

Re: South stand shite

Not been funny but some idiots under the U38 sign. Around 40. Grey stubble beards shouting nonsense. Even I turned round and said what the fuck are you on about. Got ne reply.

Also, anyone got that skinny geggy prick who has learnt to swear and make racist remarks for the full game? Few of my mates at their ends already.
See the bald bloke today having a pop at Mon? He was met with silence
