This is it, we need Bloom and Barber to get the singing going in the posh seats.
None of this once a season in the away end from Bloom he needs to lead from the front. On that basis I fully expect Bloom and Barber to get the chants going tomorrow,

Just a quiet guy.
No Ernest was being puntastically funny. He likes to encourage mirth with his posts. He is a sidesplitter.

Definitely agree with the atmosphere bit, there is no doubt that players up there game when the crowd are behind them but they get nervous and make mistakes when the crowd are quiet and moaning.
It's an age old argument but for the remaining games no matter how we are playing I think the fans should raise their game.

Yes, thankfully. Bye then.

Always a silver lining.....support has never been a word you could grasp
Apparently we’re not.
Even at The Goldstone we had set songs.
The team need to help the atmosphere and play with better tempo. Remember Palace at home last season, not sure we’ve had anything comparable atmosphere wise since.

The atmosphere was great against Spurs and CP this season for example. But last week missed straight forward chances, then the mugging, sucked the life out of the crowd.
Three deserved first half goals in that Dec 18 derby, was the “stuff of dreams” for the Amex regulars, very predictably firing the crowd.
Three seasons of very rarely winning at the Amex, has naturally led to punch drunk supporters being conditioned to failure on the pitch.

We might have done had we scored. March’s miss was huge. I’d agree that the atmosphere at home has been poor this season but a lot of games have started well but then what’s happening on the pitch slowly kills it. They players (and manager) have a lot to do with this situation.

Pretty obvious really, isn't it. It's the same up and down the country but people on here don't seem to realise that. We are not in any way unique in terms of atmosphere at the Amex.
Do agree about the pre match shit though. It's not quite up there with goal music, but imo ring of fire just as we kick off isn't far off and does absolutely fvck all to help the atmosphere build. Wish we'd ditch it - barely anyone bothers waving scarves anymore ffs

Absolutely. Performances have slowly killed atmosphere - 5 home wins since Jan 2019. Whatever division you're in, that kind of stat is going to dampen home spirits. Most games the atmosphere has started off really decent but often dampened a lot after 15/20 mins or so because of a clear case of deja vu, whereas even a shot or two on target, for example, would've kept the mood upbeat.
Its all very well bloom saying we need to get behind the lads etc, but my point above means it become s harder for the crowd as a collective to do so as frustration kicks in when games seem to drift into the same scenario time after time for months on end, bar the odd anomaly.
Palace last week summed everything up for me in a nutshell.
Critics would say we should be extremely grateful for where we are considering our history. Which is true, of course. But at the end of the day, our win percentage/shots etc over the last few years is dire, and whether you're in the prem or league two the stats we have would seriously affect the atmosphere at the ground

Agreed. As time’s gone on, I find it cringeworthy. Manufactured, in the same way that Chelsea and Arsenal have volunteers waving giant club-made flags at each end.

March’s miss from an angle is repeatedly highlighted, but Maupay had a far better chance that strikers dream of, but tamely passing to their goalie.
