[Albion] Poor support when we needed it most

There was one spectacular 'roar' that seemed that seemed to emanate from the West in the second (?) half. It was brief, but boy was it loud!

Thought our support today was reactive rather than proactive. When “come on Brighton” is your loudest chant you’re not backing the players.

For the first 5 mins the players were fantastic and so were we but after that Hudds were louder more often.

Two split groups in the North competing with each other yet again. WSU not joining in often enough. And, to be fair, the players making mistake after mistake just as we got going.

Before you ask I’m back of WSU North End. Personal tally = Songs started 3, other people’s songs taken up 2, songs joined in with all. Still too quiet for me where I was.

I am also WSU right at the back at the North End - and I didn't think it was that bad Saturday. Don't get me wrong we have heard/seen better - but I have experienced much, much worse levels of noise at The Amex than the Hudds game.

There were too moan 'groan' moments, I'm not sure a positive atmos can take many 'groan' hits. I thought Huddersfield lived up to their name, they were like terriers in midfield and caused many of our mis-passes. With Duffy's 'assist', and occasions like March seemingly tripping himself up when approaching the box, it just seemed like one of those bad days at the office. I was thankful for a point in the end.

The Amex is a nice ground and all that but not designed with any thought whatsoever in helping to create an atmosphere. The Northstand is too small and too far from the away fans. The West upper should not be relied on for atmosphere as its miles from the pitch and cut off by 3000 prawn sandwich munchers. Forget the East (I was in it Saturday). Even Sussex by the sea is very disappointing as most just clap along and quietly mumble the words.

it's finished mate , the quality of the punters is shocking, WSL was ok when it opened, to many happy clappers as you say.

And the players didn't let US down with a totally inept performance lacking any drive or determination and strewn with errors?

It’s a circular argument but I personally believe the players give more in a better atmosphere because they’ve said so themselves. Certainly when I run I vastly prefer noisy, well attended races to the one man and a dog ones
