Near sell outs most weeks (11 Viewers)

[Saddlebrains]

Was looking around the stadium during WLADITT and was in awe of seeing how it looks nowadays, mostly packed week in week out. I remember looking out onto whole empty stands and rows to myself in the L2 days. Weve come a long way

Also, when we're on it as a crowd, I really wouldnt fancy it as a visiting player

Didn't think I'd ever see the day we'd be pretty much full week in week out. There were times when you could have about 10 rows to yourself!

Think we've heard the end of the 'you can't generate an atmosphere in a modern stadium' line.

I dont even think about the attendances that much anymore , just expect good crowds

From the Pink 'un :-

Well said, bodies on the line today, you had to be there to experience the game and the atmosphere, never heard Coventry like that before.

That's why I didn't really get why after we announced the stadium purchase, so many people were asking if the Frasers seats would be taken up. You can't see them!

 

[pusbccfc]

It looks amazing. Still think we've lost the edge with the atmosphere though. There's very little, if any, banter between fans. It's not as constant as it was a few years ago.

WLADITT is so special though. So proud hearing it every week. The whole match day experience is very good.

Time for Doug to stick an extra tier on.

“Your grounds too big for you” chant I haven’t heard in ages

Yep, mad to think I used to rattle around the corner with a few 100 odd or ao

Shocked we haven't heard 'Where we you when you were shit?'. I'm near certain will hear it against the Brummy lot.

Be rich coming from them

 

[Domo]

seeing the stands closed off, and walking up rows of empty seats, its amazing to see now

I can remember Norwich singing that on numerous occasions. Not any more

I hope we do, I like it when teams sing that, shows how far we’ve come

Hands up who was at the Checkatrade Trophy match against Northampton? There weren't many of us.

 

[Pricey1984]

I brought my blackburn supporting mate today who hasn't been for a few years. After wladitt, he actually said to me "im not used to this, I feel a bit overwhelmed"

 

[rob9872]

It's great that it's full and I love the atmosphere, but to say opposition players wouldn't like it, I don't think we're anything like intimidating. Not close enough to the pitch or nasty enough. We're loud when attacking and get behind our team.

We’ve got a fickle fan base really. Sheff Wed sang ‘where were you when you were shit’ last season and well within their rights to do this considering the support they get. I hope it lasts at the CBS, time will tell but our support is nothing special.

Sheffield Wednesday, how ironic did you see there empty Stadium today.

Don.’t remember too many 20k gates when SISU where dragging us through the mire.

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Can remember that amazing 3-2 win against Bristol City first season back at the arena in the Championship and thinking to myself “Wow, it looks great so full”. Attendance that day 19,500!

Fully agree. Even with the refereeing and dark arts today, it didn't feel as nasty as you'd expect.

Who was at the button game when we were first in that trophy…. That was a desolate place that

Or ‘this grounds too big for you’

I would as well, fuck it.
Builds it and they will come, along with Kevin Costner

No atmosphere at all

I think I was at that game. Didn’t we lose 2-1 and Burton had Jamie Allen and Stuart Beavon playing for them?

Thought we won on pens

I must be thinking of a different midweek shit game vs Burton during the SISU years where the atmosphere was crap.

I used to plan work trips around the UK midweek so I could see Cov. A lot of dreadful games in those years and one vs Burton was one of them!

Win on pens. Think it 11-10

Always take a few moments to appreciate this before kick off. Forgive my being a soppy git but it’s hairs on the neck stuff
