"Give it 5 years "?? A week is a long time in football! 5 years is off the scale
We are no different to any other set of fans. For a big game, or when things are going well, we are noisy. When things are shit, we aren't. You hear fuck all from the Kop when they are losing as an example.
That group of fans making the noise in the corner at Palace are effectively just cheerleaders without pompoms, and have no interest in the football on the pitch. What will it be next in the create a false football atmosphere campaign, remove a few rows of seats for a stage so a boy band can sing some shite songs while the soft-headed around them clap along?
I don't think the atmosphere is simply down to the band in the corner. I go to a fair few of their games and I would say that most of the ground seems to be pretty noisy and happy to sing.I think they are helped in the fact it is a smaller ground, and obviously last night was a night game and they were winning against one of the "top" teams". As an aside, the Citeh fans were very quiet which I was pretty surprised about.

I was flabbergasted with OT on Saturday. Not once did the Stretford End sing. Not even. " Utd, Utd, Utd"
