therams69 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hi all, Not really been posting as of late but continue to view twice a day, if not more! As have been working over the BH weekend was shocked to see a couple of threads regarding atmosphere and the NSBA etc.... as not been mentioned for a bit. Anways, we are thinking of holding a meeting maybe in a room in a local pub in Derby to discuss the atmosphere at Derby and if there is anything we can all do to improve the atmosphere, its not neccessarily going to be all about North Stand Block A but the whole ground all together. If we went ahead and booked something for say July time on a Saturday evening would many be interested in attending to discuss ideas and thoughts on how we can improve the noise level at PPS to give the lads that 12th man? Let me know your thoughts, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Its a great idea Nick. One thing you could talk about is the possibility of meeting in a certain pub/bar early on match day to try out new songs etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therams69 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Yeah agree on that, the only problem being we drink at Frankie and Bennys currently, Navigation I guess would be an ideal location but thats a designated away pub! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Yeah, and then sit opposite sides of the ground so we can't hear you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therams69 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 What did you mean by Yeah, and then sit opposite sides of the ground so we can't hear you. Confused??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I mean, hardly a point in meeting, planning songs, then trying to sing them at the opposite end of the ground where no one can hear you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therams69 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Read my original post pal, didnt say it was all about NSBA mate... I am guessing you are SE Corner so no reason why you couldnt get them going in your area... Nothing like a good beer or two before the game to get everyone in the mood...

Sorry, I just don't agree with the whole premise of NSBA. Love the fact you are supporting the team through thick and thin with songs etc., don't get me wrong, but to me and a few others who have mentioned it, you have just alienated yourselves and try to take some kind of moral high ground with regards to supporting our team.

therams69 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Not at all mate, taking the moral high ground? Over what? How to support our team? Each to their own on that, not every wants to be vocal and we should respect that. I dont want to get into a debate about NSBA, that is not the reason why this thread was started. Just trying to see if other fans would be interested in having a meeting to discuss ways in which WE ALL can try and improve the atmopshere at PPS, for those interested in that side of things.So many ideas are discussed on forums and many get lost...

I respect that, but in my humble opinion, moving a small section to the opposite end of the ground hasn't really helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therams69 Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Thats fair enough and thats your opinion which I also respect... Maybe if you knew the history though that surrounded such move you would understand. For a start we didnt move over from the SE Corner, if we could, we would be probably be in the South Stand which was the preferred option until it got closed on us. Nothing we can do about that and so we ended up in the North Stand Block A. Surely together we can create a decent atmosphere at Pride Park, that IS what it is all about, nothing more! Anyway, back to the meeting idea.... LOL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 i think the nsba has massive potential and given a few years i think it will grow and get better, I am going to move over in a year or two, and Nick is a smashing fella and i think given time it will work.
