How can the Amex create a big match atmosphere?

Return of the Rev · Nov 20, 2016

Most seem to agree the Amex was a little flat for a huge game on friday,would a better atmosphere had inspired the team or is it their job to inspire the fans? Should RR be whipping up the locals? Although we have great attendances we don't seem to have big games as the difference in crowd size is only several thousand.Some recall the Goldstone where crowds could jump from 17,000 to near 30,000 for a big game alot of these were night games with an influx of fans who couldn't get to saturday games. Too many kids or fans that are not local to the city whats the problem with the atmosphere at night amex games and how could we make it better? Leeds biggest crowd today will no doubt create a decent amount of noise,it can be done :moo:

The fans could be the difference this season :thumbsup:

Having less train problems and not having the Southbound A23 closed? Friday due to accident 6pm (lorry and a couple of cars) would have helped get people to the ground vs Villa.

No drum but get a trumpeter in and they could go around warming up the fans on the concourse.and free beer :drink:

If only we could replicate this full house at Elland Road, it's positively electrifying.

Who knows, maybe this daylight football could someday catch on.

I think we do need some help. The atmosphere would be transformed if we could persuade a few supporters from the good old days to return. A wall of noise even greater than that we created against the Wednesday massive could be whipped up if you and Das orchestrated it.

One ****ing dull poster. No idea why i torture myself reading his middle aged garbage.

There was no Fanzone & no Ring of Fire on Friday. Make of that what you will.

I think it was more to do with so many late arrivals and them being rightly annoyed.

I think thats the problem with people trying to organize atmosphere,it needs to be more organic but with so many seats already filled its hard for the younger and potentially vocal fans to get together! I did speak to Mr Bloom before the first game at the amex about making the corners when completed available to the younger fans but he seemed to have faith in RR type pre match build up :wozza:

Five years later we are wondering why the atmosphere is not what it should be

Then again i was ahead of most on Poyet and Murray.It can be hard to be ahead of your time and surrounded by witch burners :moo:

Need to crank it up against Fulham.

We've been here before, but I would favour a decent trumpeter who could 'prompt' some songs like Billy does for the Barmy Army.

The Leeds Friday night game will be half empty after the omnitransportshambles against Villa.
