1981: "Win the League Win the League Win the League" - constant & deafening at every home game on the Holte End, esp Villa 1 Ipswich 2. When did we lose that amazing feeling? Get Doug and DOL out of your systems. Get behind the team.

BRIGADA have been singing non stop for nearly 2 seasons now, the main problem is that some people look at you as if you have a screw loose/missing when they anyone trying to get songs going and if they carry on for longer thatn 30 seconds !

Ah, the old rose tinted spectacles! I dont remember it being 'constant and deafening' and I didn't miss a game that year. Not that I disagree with your advice to get behind the team though :)

Pointless fact of the day. Our average attendance last season was higher than it was in 80/81.

Which surely must go to prove that the football was better last season....!!

I wonder what crowds we could expect now if we were top of the league? Presumably a sell out, but we had some strange crowds back in 80-81. Only 38k for the last home game against Boro when we could have won the League, whereas I think we had that for a cheap ticket game v Norwich or Swansea last year.
