Use of the word sanitised is interesting, reason for my interest is when I mentioned the difference between the PASSION between North and South a woman at the meeting had ago at me. She said she was a North stand fan and was passionate but was against the swearing and obscenities etc in the South. I imediatley challenged her to say were had I even mentioned swearing etc. Well my opinion of the both stands is there is a big difference.

I do think we will get a taste of our own medicine tomorrow. Roles will be reversed from last years heckling to the Saints fans losing to Cats. Most Saints fans i know will be there for our game just so they can support Hull.

Most away crowds out sing the home team.

I agree there are supporters that view an away game differently to the average hum-drum, going through the motions, home game.
Many view it as a bit of a mission/day out. You are in 'enemy' territory after all passions will be raised even in our case as a consequence of being liberated and unshackled from having to put up with those sanitised, pesky glory hunters

| I think it would make a difference if they turned off the over loud tannoy music about quarter of an hour before kick off . It's that loud you can't have a chat without shouting.

| I have to admit that I’m always a little jealous of the Leeds fans and ‘Marching on Together’. I’d love us to have a song that would get the atmosphere building like that. I know we had the ‘Boys in the Primrose and Blue’ but it didn’t seem to catch on when they tried relaunching it a few years ago.

| Drums are a complete blight on atmosphere. I hate them!
And it’s even worse then people bang the corrugated back of the stand out of time with the drum n’all.
Drums reduce sets of fans to inane Euro pop chants where the words stretch as far as “der der der der der” “oooah woooaaah woooahaa oooh” accompanied by the monotonous beat *bang ba bang bang, band ba bang bang* over and over and over and over and over.....
It’s the worst thing about our support. I wish all grounds banned musical instruments in the stands.

Primrose and Blue would be a great drumless chant. But drums have created this dumbing down of atmospheres and the thick buggers who love the drum lead atmospheres wouldn’t be able to learn so many words.

The "der der der" is inane, infantile gibberish. The hallmark of unimaginative
The drum is puerile as is the constant music and announcements at the game.
A crowd left to its own devices will create atmosphere of it's own, like it used to do in the 80s and 90s.
Whatever is wrong with
Gimme a W
She wore
Warry Warry
And the now forgotton "Warr --- ing --- ton"
I'll concede the time has probably passed for A G AGR AGRO

| I have no idea why sports clubs think that cranking up the music as loud as it will go, creates an atmosphere. Music over the tannoy (usually at Volume 12 when it only goes up to 10 as well) really creates silence in the stands. It just drowns out any noise the crowd makes and stops them bothering.
And music after tries is just cheesy as !

| Must admit, I hate the fact that the club seem to think that we need constant external stimulation to enjoy the "matchday experience" (whatever the hell that means?!)
Let the crowd make their own atmosphere, have a chat, whatever they like - we've paid money to watch rugby, not listen to loud & inane music.
As for chants you don't hear any more...."Who's your father, who's your father, who's your father referee? Hasn't got one, hasn't got one, you're a b@st@rd referee"
