At last nights fans forum one of the topics was game day atmosphere. For me there is a big difference between the North and South stand, I’m just wandering what other people’s views of this are and the overall atmosphere of the day.

Be controversial but ban smart phones to be used during the game.

I don't know about the enforceability if it but that would certainly help.

For me the atmosphere died when the corners were filled in. The singers and the drums used to locate near the big screen, this got the west stand more engaged and singing along, now we have people trying to get chants going from different ends of the stadium. Also same old same old chants, why not pinch some adapt some from the other clubs or football clubs as do other teams. Atmosphere is also built by an exciting team, get the fans something to get excited about and something to sing about, 5 drives and a high kick to the corner hardly get my juices flowing.

Russ Abbott anyone?

Back in the day the Bevan Stand never used to sing and chant, that was down to the fletch and the railway end when we used to change ends, and a bit from Pondlife Corner. The atmosphere in the ground will raise when stakes and performances will rise.

Arguably our success since 2009 and the addition of glory supporters, as well as a more sanitised, family oriented game day ‘experience’ mean the atmosphere has taken a dive. As others have said, the chants are repetitive and boring. We’re always out sung by a decent away crowd too, it’s embarrassing!

I should think the punk version of O Warry Warry is one of the most widely sung chants throughout SL & heard at every ground. It will probably be sung tomorrow by fans of the other 3 clubs.

Use of the word sanitised is interesting, reason for my interest is when I mentioned the difference between the PASSION between North and South a woman at the meeting had ago at me. She said she was a North stand fan and was passionate but was against the swearing and obscenities etc in the South. I imediatley challenged her to say were had I even mentioned swearing etc. Well my opinion of the both stands is there is a big difference.

Been going through my head all sodding evening!!!

I do think we will get a taste of our own medicine tomorrow. Roles will be reversed from last years heckling to the Saints fans losing to Cats. Most Saints fans i know will be there for our game just so they can support Hull.

Most away crowds out sing the home team.

I agree there are supporters that view an away game differently to the average hum-drum, going through the motions, home game.

Many view it as a bit of a mission/day out. You are in 'enemy' territory after all passions will be raised even in our case as a consequence of being liberated and unshackled from having to put up with those sanitised, pesky glory hunters
