I know you guys at the back sit there because it echoes round and sounds loud up there- but the problem is -it echoes round up the back and the sound doesn't travel very well to the pitch!!! Perhaps if you sat further forward the sound wouldn't be lost up at the top?

its a good view though frpm the top of that stand

The drum is virtually the only time anyone sings in the direct golf stand.

If anything we need more drum to encourage people to sing.

My solution is get the singers together like we do at away matches until that happens forget atmosphere at the Galpharm.

People will not join in when the gap between singers is 10 to 20 seats. Those that do sing feel that they stand out and look like idiots.

Fortunately i sit near Tansey so i dont look like an idiot by myself. There are dozens more who would sing if they were closer togethre.

But i have flogged this horse to death and have given up completely

we'd get told to shut up if we do jools, like we did on sunday!
i just dont think the vast majority of people want people making noise and would certainly not stand for people singing and chanting lol

spot on DG, i agree, tansey and that rabble in the riverside do a decent job considering
the biggest problem is we have 2 different groups in 2 different stands who usually congregate together at away games,and neither of that group will move.
although i have mentioned to tansey a couple of times about coming over to the BR but i know none of the regulars up there will move.
maybe mr RHP could be persuaded to encourage more vocal supporters to sit together?

i think its just that our fans are just not into singing/chanting getting excited,when compared to other clubs.

Don't necessarily agree with that but do think the shouters get spread out a bit and diluted with the newbies and/or the quiet ones. You watch, for a cup game when there are just die hards it will be a cracking atmos.

I love the music after a try or conversion.

As for singing sound just doesn't travel well in the stadium. It can sound really loud when you are in the BR but you can hardly hear the BR singing in the DG.

I sit 30 yds away and i cant hear em

Graham does an ok job, id keep him over the DG side, he aint needed at the BR side, i think your too far back personally, id have you bout halfway back, maybe then people in front and around would join in.

Really? Sign of a tinpot club imo, if you need music to get the crowd going after you've scored then you'll really struggle when your losing. Music shouldn't be needed to play to create an atmosphere after you score!

Defo need to stop the music after tries it just drowns out the crowd reaction and becomes a stupid clap along to the beat. Even worse when it starts choruses of "we all hate Leeds" rather than anything Giants related

While I'm about it - what a dreadful tune it is that plays while we await the team taking the field. Music choices have to be uplifting, tuneful, and there to encourage participation by the crowd surely?

If we really must have music - then must be a standard tune that would encourage fans to continue to sing after it stops or at least consistent so that we know what to expect. I remember the club seemed to embrace the use of the theme to the Great Escape (back in the "keep the faith" days). Something like that would be good as easily chanted to and regular rythmn for those who want to clap along?

Rocking all over the world etc... what the **** has that to do with anything - let alone anything related to the Giants. Dare I mention the awful tunes we had to endure at The Shay last year - WTF was that Saturday night or whatever tune for petes sake?

Would hope that RHP will pick up on this - he will remember Bullmania etc... and much as we don't want that you can't argue with the impact that the right tune can make on the crowd reaction and participation level to singers.

Shall I bring my Fat Boy Slim CD next home game? - Love Island would do nicely thank you a cracking tune that!

Maybe we could steal a song from the towns football team and claim it as our own!

Then we could play it on the tannoy and the players could stand like its the national anthem!

How about the Archers Theme....Dumteedum Teedum Teedum! Oh yes that'll get 'em going.
