Who should create the Atmosphere?

Walk in silence. Don't turn away, in silence.Your confusion. My illusion.

Controversial but it’s another reason for a new ground imo. We need 10,000 cheap seats/safe standing where the priority is to sing through-out. Like an away game.

anyone heard from Brigada lately

Worn like a mask of self-hate (i.e. having to face the mirror the morning after yesterday's game).

That dreadfully pa system prevented the crowd from building up a head of steam prior to kick off yesterday. It was my first match in years (and will likely be my last). Way too much razzmatazz. The teams emerged from the tunnel to some cackling cretin crack adict by the sound of it. What happened to the old fan fare and we will rock you? I sat in the trinity with " football in a library" on continuous play in my head.

There isn't anything happening at Villa Park in terms of atmosphere that isn't happening everywhere else. That's just the way it is when lots of people are paying 60 quid a ticket, it changes the demographic.

FWIW, Villa Park is great because of the proximity of the fans to the pitch - the fans are basically towering over it, like few grounds these days, so when the atmosphere IS good, it can be better than anywhere else.

I think Anfield is similar.

Flintstone power raging over Monster energy drinks (or Emery drinks….) that’s who! Or God/science. We did ok in lockdown without any crowd at all tbf

The PA system is garbage . It was better when I was a kid and they just played "theme tune from an unmade movie" and I used to watch Sid fizzing passes across the pitch in his warm up.

I don’t think the PA was the issue yesterday it was the garbage music they were trying to pump through it…was literally just noise…betw Hi Ho and Crazy Town had absolutely no idea what it was :-)

[RamboandBruno]

They played the theme tune to the A-Team as the team ran out every game in  86-87 when we got relegated.

They played Rainbow, Since You’ve Been Gone. Strange one.

Would have been better to be the theme tune from Rainbow :-)

and Zippy in defence he would have kept things tighter

Cheaper tickets, proper kick off time and easier access to booze before hand. That is what is needed.

Symbiotic relationship.

Who sang that one.
