To be honest Matt, I've been thinking the same thing for a few matches. I like a sing song myself but just can't muster any enthusiasm for it at the moment.

Perhaps reflecting what some of the players are doing - 'can't be arsed'

Even the away support has dropped in numbers and it's vocal backing.....
we need a leader, talisman, someone to believe in........... perhaps the
manager will find that person in January ?

Failing that, and I fear things will get worse before we turn the corner
a 'tonking' by Citeh / Chelsea will maybe create a them & us seige
mentality that would galvanise the support, when the going gets tough etc,
because if we the fans give up then the writing is on the wall, and I for one
don't relish following us in the Championship -

Mind you, having said that, thousands of us had memorable days in
the old Third Division way back when, Andy Lochhead & Chico Hamilton
were the fans' favourites, and nobody could accuse us of being a quiet
lot then (ah fond memories) -

It is the worst vocal support I can remember for many a year at VP.

Apathy reigns throughout at the moment.

They're all asleep, or quietly crying into their sleeves, or eyeing the rafters for the perfect hanging spot. Can't say I blame em really!

Hat, coat, runs away!  ;D

To be fair, we probably say the same at the majority of grounds we go to too.

When i've been to Everton, Blackburn, Bolton, Utd and even Blues, Albion and Wolves, we've outsung the home support.

I think that's just the way it is now. Just that we seem to be quiter than usual this year.

We don't have the best away following in the Premiership. I also don't think we can be considered one of the poorest at home when you take into account the likes of Blackburn, Bolton, Wigan, Blues etc...

Probably not in terms of numbers but definitely one of the best away followings vocally.
