| I get people having different views on drums and chants ect. But there were lot's of clean songs sang today with no one seeming to take interest. I joined in myself with no one around me joining in. I remember thinking to myself 'This never used to happen.. We used to be loud and proud'
Is all that gone?

| Atmosphere was very flat today. Guy in front of me spent the first 20 minutes faffing around with his facebook profile, and didn't look at the pitch once which perhaps indicates the mentality of some of the modern spectator.
Incidentally, if anyone is going to blame the weather/ref/performance/play-off system for the atmosphere, as supporters some times WE have to life the team, not the other way round.

| Exactly... The south stand is full of young girls on their phones. Without sounding like stating a singer club I do think we need a place for the fans who want to make noise to go.
Not starting a naff club like the Wigan Brigantes. Just all those to want to sing to congregate together and that corner is ideal if you ask me. I'm used to standing without drums and though they can be too much sometimes I can appreciate it. Just think... the more people singing the quieter the drums will be!

Sorry, not for me thanks. Had we have been playing Saints or Wigan today the atmosphere would have been a lot better. The idea of sectioning off a "choir" would be ridiculed by many.

| Today I had the privilege of being in the North Stand for the second time within 1 month
To say we were as flat as a pancake both on and off the field
Bratfurd were more vocal than us from what I observed, do not shoot me down now but: the north stand is boring as fook, too many reserved judgments and all I can say is, thank fook I shall as always be a south stand always have always will be.
Pass me the pistachios

| Must confess, I was bored less today watching that - and I've been watching Warrington with my parents since I was born.
Personally, I think the standard of Super League is dropping to a point where teams aren't playing to their potential until the business end of the season. I was seriously in two minds whether to go today, but then the prospect of sitting in watching telly/playing on the Playstation didn't really appeal either. The only reason I went out to day was to see my mates, and I'm half disappointed we didn't just park ourselves in a pub for five hours instead of going to the match.

| I know the idea will not be taken on by many but would the atmosphere been that good? really? Saint at home was dead, could't even get a decent 'Barmy army' going as I remember.
Like I say I'm not captain Warrington myself. however I was joust thinking how people would feel about it. All ideas have to start somewhere...

| It's the sport causing it. I was at the game today (Don't tell anyone, keep it quiet) and it was even worse than watching Saints. No atmosphere I agree, but that was due to the complete lack of intensity on the field. When you've got 26 men simply going through the motions, playing rehed set piece moves over and over again with no effort is incredibly boring.

| All I know it there are supporters there at the club trying their hardest and no one will back them up.
Everyone complains about atmosphere but no one joins in. The only way I see it is that if you want to join in move over to the lads in the corner singing. I know I will be from now on. I'm sick of being stood in the silence stood in a library.

| It might help to get Lawrence Robinson the tenor to lead the chants over the pa system ...i am sure TF & the Wire would be good with an operatic voice.
Personally though i prefer to watch what's going on on the pitch than singing.

Saddened please go to the Saints board to see your above full post. Worse than watching Saints? I don't think so. We can only play what's in front of us. The Bulls were playing the slow the play the ball down and when they realised Bentham wasn't bothered they continued.

Good luck to you and the gang in the corner we need more supporters and fewer spectators I'm sure th team will respond and our collective prospects will be improved.....if only to put Saddened back is 'box'

| The stadium has had no atmosphere since 2005. The hj is the worst in Sl for home support cheering the team on.
The north stand is like a wake. The west may as well be closed. The east only get giddy for Wolfe. The south is full of spice boys, One direction fans and middle aged men drinking warm beer.

| Haha, just an observation I made today. Spoke to one of them, doesn't seem to be a 'gang' as such just people who want to sing. don't even have to stand all together just around that area and open your mouths is what their trying. Also noticed a twitter page called @ReclaimTheZoo
I've always thought that's all it takes... People to stop moaning and actually try and do something. hopefully something takes off.
Gang or no gang. I'll be singing and trying to help them. We've got alot to sing for. The new timeline proves we're not a nothing club. We've been through thick and thin and for the support to die just as we're getting to our best? I just don't understand. If anyone is interested I'd suggest talking to that twitter page.
