I agree about the atmosphere. It was good. This is a positive post and makes me wonder why your other post was, like so many others, rather negative about the second half. It was disappointing, but we only conceded 10 points while in the first half we conceded 18. Our lack of a cutting edge in attack meant that we never looked like scoring, but our defence wasn't too bad, apart from a few individual errors, which we hope will be coached out of the players soon.

I thought putting the poor performance aside friday night had a real buzz about it. Bringing families and children in the stadium has to be the future.

The work off field Koukash is putting in is working. Just need to get the playing side sorted. I can see a full stadium being a reality next year (at least for one game!).

I must have missed the buzz and great atmosphere. Around us there was a mostly resigned sense of "here we go again."

Have to agree. Didn't seem much difference from usual, although there did seem a bit more of a buzz outside the ground/in the fans bar due to there being more people than usual. It didn't seem to transfer into the ground though, probably because of how the game went.

It was felt more in the East Stand, certainly.
