I think we just need to sing up a bit.

To say we have complaints about no singing or no atmosphere why is it my son knows all the songs????

Guessing having you as his mum helps

we're carrot and gold, we're carrot and gold...

Don't think thats fair TBH cos I sit about 7 rows from the front,by the halfway line and join in with my kids in all the songs clapping ect, loads round me also get involved now, but there are still too many that look at you like you have 2 heads when you sing/shout ect, I look back as if to say it's you who is nuts for just sitting there like a lemon!!!

New song to get going:-

Faaaaaaaaaalogo
Wearing the Claret and Gold
You have the power we know
Your indestructable
Always believe in
Faaaaaaaaaalogo

(sang to tune of Gold)

and Where You Go, We Follow, We Follow, We Follow,
Cause we Support the Giants, the Giants, the Giants,
and That's the way we like it!

I think we should get an ultra together, liven Kilner Bank up a bit!

It's worse in lawrence batley side (I lost track of what they call it now?). I sit in the middle right next to the press and posh seats at the very back of the lower tier and you could hear a pin drop. If I shout 'offside' or 'forward' people turn round and look at me funny, let alone when me and my sister try singing along when Big G bangs his drum. The other week I was feeling particularly strongly about something and was having a good old rant - the old bloke in front of me turned round and asked me to keep it down! That seems to be the attitude of a lot of our supporters, these are the same people that walk out 10 minutes before then end when its a draw though.

As has been said before its difficult to get an atmosphere in such a large stadium when the fans are so spread out. However I don't think it helps that when people do try singing etc all they get is funny looks. It used to be a really good atmosphere when I sat at the top of the Kilner Bank but then I got sick of certain ones swearing in chants as I have a 3 year old stepdaughter who went home singing about the ref's lack of a father, that was an awkward phone call!

Basically unless the club are going to do something to get the fans more involved I dont see the atmosphere getting any better. However I will continue to shout and cheer and get funny looks, as long as we are playing our best and winning games I'm not too worried!

Haha my mate came up with that for town.

We need to start to put some effort in, plus repeat the songs more than once so more people can join in. Its very simple but a lot of our fans dont like change. Im used to singing at town games so im not fussed. One more thing to those who sit at the back. Stop sitting down, trust me that will kill the atmosphere, stand up and i bet that you will sing more.

Plus we need a DRUM.

i'm all for making more noise and getting behind the team but please not drums.

[sizeNO WE DON'T![/size

I was never one for the drum but to be honest it's the only time we make much noise lately when Big G bangs his drum.

How often do we sing without big G banging his drum, next to none. The songs we have dont last long enough for large amounts of people to join in, a drum would rally everyone to sing and keep timing which i noticed a lot of our fans dont have e.g this weekend our fans could not even sing oh when the giants right. Until we get a drum we will not generate a consistantly good atmosphere. Tell me one club who has a good set of fans who sing consistantly through a game without a drum?

Drum is good, I think that atmosphere in the ground was great at the Hull FC game, when Big G came into the stand - that was great.
