Never mind 10,000 day trippers, there was nothing from anywhere last night.
Like someone said, players have to show some interest.

The atmosphere has been fucked by the tyranny of raised expectations, that's all there is to say really

Disagree. In the first half vs. Luton, Simms had a tough chance on his left foot, keeper stopped it. Bloke behind me in block 15 started screaming that Simms was sh*t. I turned round and pointed out he'd got one on target using his weaker foot when the ball was played behind him. He stopped screaming at our players and we hugged when the equaliser went in. It is a choice; you want different? Do something about it.

Daytripper instead of Twist and Shout then?

Better song to be fair.

Othe possibilities could be:

Back in the League One

I'm(not) a believer.

We(can't) work it out.

Can't buy me an experienced midfielder.

I(don't) feel fine.

The long and winding road to League One.

Help!

I don't buy into that.
Easiest thing in the world - turning up in numbers to watch a successful team, raising the roof in praise of that exciting, successful team.
Tough ask, granted to keep the atmosphere going given what was being served up before us last night but that's what separates spectators from supporters.

thought is was ironic the Derby fans singing football in a library, exactly what we were singing at the riverside on Saturday ..

Regarding general atmosphere I do think the club and fans battling adversity giving us a moral lift has worn off now and expectation has increased..quite rightly so now we have some stability.

Regarding crowds, people will follow success that's just the nature of football and sport in general. plus two highly published visits to Wembley has helped as well. I think it's great that we are now attracting people who have stayed away or are new to the club. The amount of kids now going is brilliant. They are not our true hardcore of what 8-10k, but we should welcome the revenue and support.

All away fans (including us) seem to sing that every week at every ground in the league

Haha! Whatever. Couldn't give a f*ck what forum lurkers believe or don't. It's hardly revolutionary thinking to point out that if you want something to be different, you might have to do something about it yourself. Enjoy moaning on the internet.

If people wanted it enough they would move to designated singy clappy place and then you would have some noise. The fact that isn't happening shows that people want spontaneity driven by excitement and effort on the pitch not enforced singing and staged "scenes"

It was absolutely awful today. Finally getting fed up with it now. So much potential but pointless if people are stood in silence in the safe standing bit.

Football in a library Away fans can sing what they want so long as we send them home with fuck all, atmosphere isn’t brilliant but neither is the football, TBH thought the last 10 mins atmosphere got them over the line,, even the sky blue song got belted out a few times, the atmosphere will improve the same time the football does

They were garbage. Only song they sung all game.

Used to be so loud when they visited in the 00s. Always low numbers but good noise. Worst I've heard them.

Think most teams visiting the CBS this season have been poor atmosphere-wise.

Maybe it's just the Championship now in general?

Definitely a decline. We all had a post-covid boom but it's fallen off. Same when we visit other places. Nowhere has stood out to me this season.

Don't agree with that.
There's been some shite but there's been some cracking games as well and although the atmosphere isn't what it was it hasnt regressed 9 years.

League position also to blame for this a little. The games all feel a little bit dead rubbery and it’s hard to get too excited as there’s no real jeopardy. If / when we get close to the playoffs again it will all come back.

I agree - felt there was more positivity from Singers Corner yesterday - and during the game at 0-0, when we had a little bit of pressure on them, the crowd responded. Bristol City (like Sheff wed) were disappointingly quiet.
