Have they taken a break from sectarianism and being obsessed with the idea of getting a drum then?

Aye. Going to need everyone on it, none of this twaddle about feeling to embarrassed to chant. Got to show everyone how much this means.

It is old but it is beautiful and its colours they are fine
It was worn at Wembley, Anfield, Old Trafford and the Sty...
My father wore it as a youth in bygone days of yore
So on the 7th I proudly wear, the scarf my father wore.

Spurs aside, I've noticed a huge uplift in atmosphere in the Trinity Upper these past few games. Not quite sure what's sparked it but long may it continue.

Let's just remember that it's not just on the fans to get things going. Atmosphere is normally dialled in to what is happening on the pitch. We need those fuckers to run like they've never ran before tomorrow night, and if they do we'll sing em all the way to Istanbul!

That 1994 Inter night was incredible. I've never experienced an atmosphere like it.

If all can re-create that, we're through.

Glad they posted this because I've never been to a match before and wouldn't know how to sing or shout without a "pay attention to me" fan group explaining it for me.

Atletico tops it for me.  That was unreal.
