Well Done to our supporters

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Sounded good on the radio - was even pleased to hear the dirgey "al.........be...........on, al......be........on".

Well done lads and ladies.

 

[Mendoza]

Also well done to all the Albion fans in the Birbeck after the game, who were taunted by the Orient fans as YMCA played on the juke box. The response being 40 or so Albion fans singing and doing the actions in unison, leaving the Orient fans no choice but to applaud our "sense of humour"

We were in the right hand side, stood towards the front and no sitting down apart from at half time. I noticed that the left hand side were all sitting down.

Support was pretty good and noisy where I was. Slade got a good reception when he cam out before the game.

Players looked gutted at the end, I was. No way did we deserve to lose that match.

Wish I'd stayed for that!

 

[Braders]

first half was incredible - second half despite the best intentions it did go abit drab ..

 

[Joshski]

1915 official figure according to albion match report on the website, but i reckoned there must have been more than that as most of the 3600 stand seemed near full and loads of people i spoke to bought tickets on the day! Great atmsophere not quite that of leeds or forest last season but still good!

 

[Billy the Fish]

I was on the right hand side and thought it was ok, not sure where this theory that all the singing was on the left has come from, I think it just depends where you were sat.
And for the benefit of spider, I bought a fanzine from one of your lot in the stand.

We were saying that? How it was 1915 I can't see? Where we were it seemed pretty full? Look at the picture on this thread, the stand doesn't look nearly half full does it??

If anyone was in the home stand I am sure they'd have a better view and could probably say otherwise.

 

[Seagullible]

was about 3/4 of the way back just to the right of the halfway line and managed to get a few chants going. My partners little girl loved her first away game and wants to come to many more - I may turn her from Man U YAY

Hurrah!

I'm sure it sounded pretty good to anyone outside the Stands. Down on the pitch there is no way that the players were other than 100% aware of a very large, noisy and supportive following.

Do we have any acoustics specialists on NSC? Why is that noise doesn't seem to travel well sideways along a stand? Also, why is it that when you are in the middle of a chanting group the noise can on the one hand sometimes sound louder to you than it is being heard elsewhere (e.g. small band of away fans taunting home fans who are none the wiser as they can't really hear the chant...) but on the other hand I suspect that often your own noise doesn't sound as loud to you as it is heard elsewhere (e.g. at Orient our support/noise would have been relatively loud to anyone in one of the other 3 stands but to us it seemed a bit quiet...)

To put it another way - when the Orient bobblers managed a couple of fairly lame efforts it sounded good enough to me - the full cry of our 2,000 travelling fans surely must have been a lot better?

Anyone sit in the home section and can comment?

I sat in the home section and will comment.

Singing was loudtatsic for first half. Second half became a little lame.

LOL - special mention for Big Baz during "In the Navy".

 

[CoCoa]

but why were fans singing 'I wish it could be Christmas everyday'

 

[minnieme]

Mmmm, yes, looks like a real seething caldron of passion....

Instead of taking the piss, why not get of your back side & go to an away game & support the team. Much more fun than posting negative shit on here

[herecomesaregular]

i stood in the back half a bit to the right of the half way line and it was definitely noisy and lots of singing there, loved it. first away game since yeovil away (which was very quiet) and it relit my fire definitely going to the next run of home games and mk away. surprised to hear people moan about it. and that gorgeous lady chavette with the big hooped earings and stinking of stella made me chuckle all day, she was gorgeous
