Here are a few popular ideas that could improve the atmosphere at the Amex, which of these are worth trialling?

???

Pre Match/Half Time DJ - DJ on the pitch to generate some tub thumping tunes to get supporters psyched for the big game.

Theme Days - It worked before but not something we do anymore but bring back theme days, we could have things like 1920's circus, P party, american idols, super hero day etc

Singing Section - A dedicated singing section in the North Stand, or one close to the away supporters.

A band/orchestra in the stadium - Generates a wonderful atmosphere at England games, could be trialled at the Amex to whip the crowd into a frenzy and provide a backing track to sing along to.

Club to provide new chants/song sheets - Employees within the club to come up with some new and unique to us songs for us to sing and handout songsheets so everyone knows the words.

Involve the audience in P.A announcements

Unreserved seating in certain areas - Allows groups of friends to sing together who may be more likely to sing as a group.

BHAFC Choir

Squad players to mingle with and encourage fans to get behind the boys pre match


Any other suggestions?

:facepalm: Atmosphere was odd yesterday but I think it’s generally been alright this year. Certainly no need for any of this tinpot stuff.

How about Clackers? :fishing:

Deepest, darkest Sussex
Disappointed we can't select to get a load of wannabe gangsters and make them wear black

Perhaps a presentation of the opposition's most famous supporter?

North & south stands are standing only

How about 'do nothing and not get so precious about things like the 'atmosphere' at games'?

Noise levels haven't changed much since the Amex opened, so I don't see how anything would make a difference, even if you wanted it to :shrug:

Sussex but not by the sea
Getting shot of cringey FanZone and Richie Reynolds would be a good start. Replace with music

Fanzone is OK for the kids, Reynolds is harmless, I am starting to get a little bored with the Albion video montage but that’s hardly killing the atmosphere!!

Yesterday was fine, bordering on good until Propper’s mistake literally killed it.
