It occured to me after 15 minutes today sitting behind the goal what a boring bunch of fans I was sharing a stand with. I can appreciate it had no roof but get on with it! I can honestly say as a 18 year old that is the worse game I've been to atmosphere wise since I've ever been watching the albion! I was embarassed to be associated with these fans today!

Different people show their support in different ways. Normally at away games people sit where they like and are not spread out over 2 stands, therefore those who want to sing head to the back, and those who don't sit at the front. Today everyone was mixed together and spread out. These people you call 'boring' and are 'embarrassed by' are always there but just not around you.
Not everyone wants to stand and sing during a game. Doesn't make them any less passionate or dedicated.

Sounds like you're a sheep, waiting for others to start.
Why not try starting your own songs, you'd be surprised how many others want someone else to start before joining in. BAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!

Couldn't agree more. Not everyone wants to sing the same song over and over, some people are actually more interested in watching the game.
Although I personally like to watch the game and soak up the banter

I don't disagree with you. And I totally understand that not everybody want's to sing and make noise but a bit of effort wouldn't go a miss. Many songs were started where I was stood and I 9 times out of 10 the song never got going! I just wish sometimes people would sing along! Beach hut do you sing?

Try explain to Liz Costa that you don't understand why she follows the club. She doesn't sing but she is more of a fan than you.

I thought the support was noisy. Try and overcome your embarrassment - talking about it will help!

The young lads next to me in the East Stand spent more time shouting at the South Stand fans, trying to get them to respond, than actually watching the game. This I just can't understand, and judging by the looks on other people's faces I was not alone in thinking this. That said, each to their own.

I was sat in the East, literally no one between me and the home supporters (thanks DanielT) and the atmosphere and singing here was good so do not feel embarrassed, as others have said we each get something different from the experience. My AFCB supporting mates said it was a great atmosphere as we took so many and the "where`s your Eddie gone" song hit the spot for them.

I've never known a club that has supporters who fight and bicker with each other so much it's an embarrassment - You pay your money you take your choice, sing or don't sing it's up to the individual last thing we need are the opposition fans laughing at us while we are all in fighting. If it carries on like this we are f***ed.

Perhaps the heavily enforced allocated seating didn't help...
Our group was split into about 7 sections all over the stand.
