Watford Fans - Quietest home fans ever

[Donald]

Considering they have a whole stand missing, it wasn't worse than brum, only thing I heard at brum was them banging on that metal at the back!



Fair enough! All looked a bit derelict with that stand gone! Was the little bit of seated area(I think there was a bit of seating in that stand...) still being used at least?

The press still use it but not used for supporters as it's too old and good old health and safety I think. Finally shut to supporters at end of 2007/08 season

Its Watford. You'd have nothing to sing about either if you lived there.

I have that 1-0 win last night to sing about.

Have we all forgotten Withers ?

I heard absolutely no noise from the Watford fans (other than some pantomime booing) for the entire time until they scored.

Literally not one song, nothing.

Surely this makes them the quietest fans in the league?

They are going to get a shock when they come to the Amex and we deafen them!

I don't think it matters, they still won shit fans or not.

As pointed out above, I don't think having a whole stand missing helps with the acoustics... Are you guys rebuilding it then?

There are plans...but nothing will probably happen for years!

Haha it always makes me laugh seeing threads like this.

Our home support isn't very good, I will grant you that. Thing is, with a whole side of the ground missing, you can barely hear what the other side of the ground is singing.

Brighton supporters yesterday probably thought they were very loud - wrong. The only time anyone on the other side of the ground could really hear you was there is little point having spectators most of the time, as any sound is sucked out into the abyss where the East stand used to be.

You must be joking, our away support was very subdued on tuesday night.
Must have been something to do with our pathetic performance on the pitch.

St Andrews was much quieter the Saturday before.

 

[AMEXican Wave]

Apparantly, Ipswich were the quietest fans ever...

Then Birmingham managed to out-quiet them a couple of matches later...

and even they have been toppled by Watford?

It's looking like there are some very quiet fans in this league

I went with a mate to watch Southampton vs Watford and was in the Watford end. It was REALLY loud.

... just thought I'd add that.

The away end at Southampton is shared with their main group of fans though. It was probably Saints fans you could hear.

Thing is if you replaced it, Vicarage Road would look a very decent stadium, though I have to say the concourse in the away end is a disgrace; how do you get a safety certificate for that? Is the one in the Rookery Stand as bad?

Brighton supporters yesterday probably thought they were very loud - wrong. The only time anyone on the other side of the ground could really hear you was when you were doing the whole 'you're shit' thing for Loach's goal kicks. I sit near the half way line, and it did make me smile when I heard a faint 'we forgot that you were here' dribble out from the away end. You weren't alone lads, at Vicarage Road there is little point having spectators most of the time, as any sound is sucked out into the abyss where the East stand used to be.

The only fans who have been heard at VR was Palarse and their Euro songs, and West Ham because they had the whole stand allocated to them. Forest might as well have stayed at home, they didn't manage an audible note all game, and they won.

Nothing personal lads, just don't read too much into anything acoustically at VR. 90% of teams think they are being loud, when in fact they sound very quiet from the half way line, let alone the other end of the ground!

GL for the rest of the season anyway, I know you are all in panic mode, but everyone that isn't a BHA fan can see you are doing very well for yourselves. Form is temporary. Even we are winning games sometimes.

Interesting points mate. You will enjoy the atmos at the Amex if you come down. Oh and the empty bit with terraces reminded me of the Goldstone. Ahh memories.
