It's not about whether the atmophere was good or not, do you prefer the away fans being situated where they were last night or where they were before? And try to answer without being a mardarse since that's all I ever see you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question was "whether or not the atmosphere was better with the away fans located here compared to where they were before (right next to the South Stand)" A big no from me - no it was not better - is that clear enough for you?

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 The atmosphere is never going to be great with 600 supporters, doesn't matter where they sit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VulcanRam Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I sit in the East Stand upper, in between the 18 yard line (north stand end) and half way and genuinely thought there were no away fans at all. Couldn't see them, couldn't hear them! From a selfish point of view, much prefer them more in the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have dominated all 4 games. Dominated - 2 out of the last 4 games we have had less than 50% possession There is no creativity which has created an apparent lack of goals. The atmosphere will improve when we start winning games, start scoring more and start moving up the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FindernRam Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 The myth of possession being the be all and end all gets right up my nose. Only one thing matters and that is goals. To score goals you actually have to shoot on target. We don't, at least nowhere near enough. What is Phillips doing? The atmosphere is really strange and its not the away fan position, it us. At one point last night we had a corner at the North end. The ground went almost silent, no excitement or anticipation at all. Then when it turned into nothing there was no reaction at all.

Steve Bloomer said exactly that all those years ago and nothing has changed. Possession based football is actually more negative than the traditional defensive alternative. It just looks better, but denies the other team any chance to effect the game. I always switched off when Spain were in full tikka takka flow. What poxy, boring stuff. A hundred passes to advance ten yards ffs!! Like watching paint dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, when we win a corner it's normally a good time to whip yer phone out and check other results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I admired the way they kept the ball and wouldn't aimlessly punt it to anybody but on the flipside it was monotonous, lethargic and bored the living daylights out of me. Barcelona in contrast do the same thing but they move the ball quickly and use the likes of Messi to suddenly inject pace into an attack which is a hell of a lot more exciting to watch. There is a world of difference between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that Barcelona play in a similar way to the national team but just have that spark provided by Messi et al who you are correct, are not Spanish.

I sit in east upper just on the right of the half way line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
