Great Escape 'wall of noise' at Reading?

[We're the Stripes]

I think the main thing to have learnt from Saturday's atmosphere is.. keep chants going for longer. Gives it a much greater chance of catching on throughout the crowd and getting everyone in sync.

No names, no packdrill, no songsheets. Nothing whatsoever to be learnt. If it happens it happens. Maybe now the NSK understand.

Pains me to say it but LEEDS are a very very good example of this.

I still can't believe how few people just clap as fast as they can completely out of time. It's like being sat with 5 year olds sometimes...

i have to admit after Saturday i agree, bollocks to all the songsheets if a song/chant is good enough it will catch on.
but i agree with some others as well that our songs are all a bit to short and we do need to get a song that we can keep on going for ages and bounce around etc, im undecided weather the great escape should be that song or not...

agreed, something like this would be great:

 

[Drpepper]

Whatever song gets going will soon be drowned out by people chanting ALBION all the time.always happens

 

[Pintos]

It has to be 'Gus Poyet's blue and white army' (alternate between two parts of the crowd).

I seem to recall it lasting for a good 15 minutes until we scored an equaliser against Notts County in 1998. Except with Brian Horton instead of Gus.

this with scarves and flags swinging round would work

 

[SirElliotBennett]

How many great escapes has this club had? It should be made our own original song.

This. Also because it sounded brilliant at Burnley

It's got to be this. Keep it going long enough and everyone will join in.

 

[Husty]

Pick something else and sing it for 10minutes straight, I fancy the CMS song or Gus Poyet's blue and white army.:guitar::guitar:

 

[Richard Reynold's Haircut]

Why? It's not a Brighton song. Why do we need new songs? It's cringeworthy.

Just because we have finally found a song that the entire ground sings, loudly, and keeps going for more than 30 seconds and clearly lifts the team and the fans and sounds fantastic, why would we want to sing it again?

We have All-bbbiii-oooonnn after all.

Too right. Much rather have 10 people singing the Magiko (or whatever the latest ditty at St Pauli is) than that rubbish.

 

[The judge]

Will be Looking forward to a bit of Gus Poyet's Blue and White Army at Reading .

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Gus Poyets blue and white army
Gus Poyets blue and white army
Gus Poyets blue and white army
Gus Poyets blue and white army


Brighton Aces needs rejuvenating too !!

This with knobs and bells on

 

[Horsham Gull]

"because of boxing day " must get a go

should be sung loud and proud at Reading

HARK NOW HEAR THE BRIGHTON SING THE PALACE RUN AWAY AGAIN AND WE WILL FIGHT FOREEVER MORE BECAUSE OF BOXING DAY

 

[OSRGull]

You don't have to be going down Old Shoreham Road to sing Brighton Aces, Ward doesn't play for us but we still sing about him so why can't we sing this anyway? It clearly motivated the players and gave them a boost so if it means creating an atmosphere then why not.

 

[fisons]

Ward doesnt play for us? WTF?

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Ward doesnt play for us? WTF?

I know it's outrageous. Fancy a bit of POTG action on Boxing Day...?

Palace fans lay claim to the "Great Escape" song , they've been singing it for the last couple of seasons between January and May.
