An atmosphere is not created by fans banging drums and singing.
That happens because of an atmosphere.

No atmosphere means forced drumming and singing which doesnt last long.

You cannot manufacture an atmosphere if there isnt one already, all you can create is a noise.

No i suppose your right, but I don't think some of the older generation are reluctant but it cant be all put solely on that alone. the music this wouldn't matter if it was an anthem that everyone sang along to like YNWA at Anfield. Get the crowd up for it, the only problem is how do we get everyone to sing to it and what anthem would we have?

I think anthems are gay.
Why not just play nothing and let the fans be rugby league

Im not talking about the butterflies and tense feeling in the air of a semi final or a big league deciding game. I'm talking about the noise of the stadium. But i do think if the entire stadium was jumping and singing from the get go then a matchday experience would be more fun and attract more people through the gates. We've always known and been talked about the best fans in the league, why hold back? lets go for it!

It was just an idea

Sorry MO.
A very good one it was too.

Gay but Good

Oh father why are you so sad, on this bright Easter morn...

i think the fields of athenry would be slightly better than the boys of the old brigade... or better still no Rebel songs at all?

Smoke bombs and flares are very different. If it was a smoke bomb the OP should change the thread title because smoke bombs can be bought from any fireworks shop and are fine; whereas flares are dangerous and illegal and this thread could get someone or the club into trouble.

Arf. I never knew you cared so much. xx

Love the way you've pulled up some of the posters on here about the BNP and then post that and think you can take the moral high ground.

Girls. We're at Wembley in a month's time. It's RL's biggest audience of the year.
PLEASE BEHAVE, and not act like a bunch of todgers.

There's a pretty huge chasm of ideological difference between Irish Republicanism and the BNP.

No doubt, forced repatriation and sectarian murder are both pretty repugnant though.
