Block's 2,3 & 4 when it's open are becoming quite lively of late, great banter and so close to the away fans.
It's becoming more and more popular with the more boisterous lot.
Absolutely top draw yesterday.

Does that mean we're going to have two singers corners.

Singers corner has some of the best fans in the 92. Loud as fuck, lively and incredible support through thick and thin.

What annoys me slightly is, from about block 19 the noise becomes less and less. I get it, there is alot of families and casuals in blocks 20/21 and onwards, but if King and the club could figure out a way to extend that singers corner to block 19 the atmosphere would be fucking unbelievable.

I don't think it's unrealistic to do.this either, the amount of people that try to get.in the Singers corner end every.week is proof.

If King sorted out a Singers corner season ticket package, that was from block 13 to 19 and then 20 onwards for families, casuals etc. Our away support is one of of the best,, no matter how large the allocation we sell it out and a good fucking portion is the singers corner, for me that needs expanding.

The atmosphere coming from that section of the arena was unbelievable and it really shows the meaning of the 12th man.

If we had a larger section that was for the loudest of fans that are vocal pretty much throughout the entirety of a match, the boost it would give our players would be massive and I think as a club, all.these small details are massive.

We want to create a fortress for our players, we want to create a hostile environment for any away side coming here, extending the Singers corner seems like something that would tick all the boxes above.

In the years gone by I've had mates that have gone all together in groups of 10/12 and all sat together in block 20/21 and what you see is large pockets of 20/30 groups of fans that are loud and vocal throughout, but surrounded by larger pockets of families, casuals and generaly lower energy fans, and there's nothing wrong with this, but as a club we should want our fans to be as loud, as vocal and hostile towards the away team as possible.

The amount of players we have signed that have all said how unbelievable the singers end are is a testament to the support, it needs to be fucking extended.

Blocks 19, 20 and 21 are Premium seating and mainly season ticket holders of a more advanced age (over 40). If singers corner is going to be extended it will be more the other way towards the away supporters.

Yeah I get ya mate but even just extending singers to block 19 and then extending the other way would be beneficial.

Every game we see the amount of fans trying to get into the singers end, it just makes sense for King to extend it.

Ideally you want that block as big as possible, we're talking about some of the absolute best fans in the 92, it only makes sense to want to cater for the fans that turn up week in week out and want to be loud, vocal and create the atmosphere.

I've sat in other parts of the ground in the past, the atmosphere is flat and the singers end are trying to get the stadium going and trying to get a chant going. I don't have a problem with fans turning up and not wanting to be vocal etc, but when you clearly see the how the singers corner positively influences our players with their incredible energy, I'm always thinking why ain't anyone in charge sat down and thought we need to extend that singers end at least 1 or 2 blocks.

Shootout the Singers lot anyway. Fucking some of the best fans in the UK, limited seating for that corner has resulted in shit loads of fans week after week wanting to be in that end because they wanna be vocal, join in with the chants etc, this should be fucking priority that the singers end is extended.

When i talk about influence, whenever our players score a goal, they are running straight for the singers corner, whenever we win, MVE/Lampard always doing their post match celebrations towards the singers corner.

This should be a priority for King, get that end extended, literally you ain't finding a better group than the singers end.

Let’s face it, climbing up to row WW is commendable for people 20 years younger. You can see fear in people’s eyes at half-time.

Safe standing by the away fans behind the goal only sells out when the game sells out, if people want to be near singers corner there’s plenty of opportunity.

Next Season will see the South Stand sell a lot more season tickets. That will be the natural and logical extension to Singer's Corner. King isn't going to give up the premium seats to a cheaper band.

The only problem being the away fan allocation for FA cup games. Ipswich fans pretty much took the entire stand for our 4th round exit and a number of season ticket holders had to take seats in other parts of the ground.

There’s a group of us ( about 50/60) across 4 rows in B 28 who get vocal every chant. It sounds like this noise doesn’t carry back round to Singers corner, but we really are. The North stand get involved but for some reason the sound gets lost, is it the acoustics?

It's completely random though and may not even come to fruition. We may not have a home FA Cup tie. We shouldn't base our seating plan on that, nor should fans be put off from buying a ticket there because of something that may not even happen.

I’m about WW and scaling the stairs after a heavy leg day at the gym had my legs like jelly!

It’s also quite slippy when it’s wet and cold so I’m surprised there hasn’t been anyone who’s fell over near me.

We did that by putting safe standing in the south stand. Many refused to move.

Maybe next season will be different, but it's not like they haven't tried to.

That Block nearest the away end looks absolutely bangin, they are all on their feet going mental when a song gets going. There was some footage my daughter showed from Tik Tok of a lad I know doing this random dance to the Samba Rhythm song towards the Preston fans, they didn't know what to make of it!

Nor should he either. The ground needs to accommodate every type of fan. Those that want to be in amongst the atmosphere have the perfect opportunity in the south stand, which as pointed out is usually one of the last parts of the ground to sell out.

The boring lot in 19-21 have done their part by constantly selling out those blocks over a number of years now

Not sure quite what all the fuss is about with extending Singers corner. The excitement of winning 9/10 has already done that. We are in block 17 and can quite clearly see that on a day like Saturday people were singing from block 10 all the way round to block 20.
