Our support this season at matches

[BrianWade4]

Been noticeably louder this season IMHO

 

[Colossal Squid]

It's mental how much better the atmosphere has been of late.

I mean obviously we had some moments last year, particularly towards the end of the season, but this season we've been noisy as **** for all of the games. Whether winning convincingly, just edging it with a nervy end or even getting beaten, the atmosphere has been as good as I've ever known.

I actually thought that today's game being on a school night would maybe mute the noise a little but I was wrong. It was GREAT

Dunky.

Cheers Sussex -

It was great to see. That ball looked net bound.

seems to be a bit of a different mentality from fans. For the past few seasons (barring the Hyypia disaster) we've been going into almost every home game with an expectation of 3 points. Now this season our fans seem to be enjoying it no matter what, and are giving the lads excellent support even if they lose. Long may it continue

This. We have a perfect storm of brilliance about our club and home games at The Amex - it is incredibly good - just keep doing your bit and keep enjoying it!!!!

The good thing about this season, as stated by others, is there really is far less expectations which encourages much better and louder support when the belief in the players gets better.

 

[Bigtomfu]

It's almost as if we as supporters know that being noisy CAN make a difference to the team. Who'd have thunk it?

Even the East Stand had an audible MOAN at the lino cocking up a decision in the second half - that's when you know it's been a good atmosphere.

Cracking atmosphere in the WSU, absolutely electric. Have a fairly worn out voicebox at the moment and will be very gravelly tomorrow. It must have sounded mental on telly

Incredible atmosphere today. Just immense. What an afternoon. A Super Sunday in every sense that matters.

Yep. Any reason they couldn't move the Everton match to 4pm?

 

[jamie the seagull]

Very happy with the improved atmosphere in the west upper this season.

Must be all those new JCL's.......

 

[Triggaaar]

When the West decide they're going to sing, it's loud.

Knocky also blocked one that was goal bound.

According to the Chronicle, You could only hear Newcastle fans from the Amex. It's number 5

Yes indeed, we lost the game 4-2 to a hattrick from a horrible sod who shan't be named (at least it wasn't McGleish is a wanker, is a wanker) but the balloons, the confetti and whatever else there was, was incredible and the atmosphere was amazing. Little 10 year old me was blown away and from that point a day at the football wasn't about the bus ride there and back, but it was about what happened on the pitch. I didn't miss a saturday game at Priestfield after that.

Maybe it's unfortunate that a 4-2 defeat remains my favourite experience at a game!

I think it says everything about the truth of football that a 4-2 defeat can be the moment most remembered when looking back at your experience of the Albion. It's not all about the victories. In our short history at the Amex, I'm sure we all remember Burnley.

I listened on Radio 5 Live and the commentators decided, at half time, that apart from the opening 15 mins it was a pretty dull match going nowhere. They then stated that plenty of Premier League clubs would have booed their team off at half time after such a lacklustre half. They seemed very surprised at the atmosphere and that the team were clapped off at half time. They have quite a bit to learn about BHA I feel. The atmosphere came across as very loud on the radio. Proud to be an Albion fan.

Came home and watched most of the game again. Noise levels sounded way above what I've heard on most Sky Sports games this season.

Newcastle fans had their moments but weren't particularly vocal given their reputation and numbers, at least from my position in B block, East Stand.

 

[alfredmizen]

There's been a few moans on here and elsewhere about the frustrations of the way we've been playing and our rotten luck in the transfer market but we easily outsung Man City at home for most of the game, we were very noisy throughout at Leicester and very good again today, fully supporting the team (as opposed to Watford home support which was one of the worst I've ever heard). All the team incl. Hughton looked like they appreciated it at the end.

Well done to all concerned. I thoroughly enjoyed today's match. Our fans are doing us proud.

Agreed , a really good atmosphere (at times ) yesterday, home to west brom was the best ive ever known it at the amex ,

It was excellent yesterday. As mentioned you don't see many premier league games that are louder than that.

The North seem much more in unison this season which is louder so catches on with other stands better.

WSU is absolutely rocking at times. In full voice that is cracking out to the players.

We'll get a reputation soon like Pompey did when they were up there.
