Stanley Ultras

[DerbyGull]

Had the fortune of seeing these guys at meadow lane this season.

They're alot of fun and sung through the whole match...all 100 of them

And were rewarded with a 2-1 victory.

Personally I love the whole Ultras thing. No idea what happened to our very own Blue Brigade, but it would be great to have a section inhabited by 'the Blue Brigade' at Falmer. Palace have (or at least used to have) a pretty impressive Ultras section with flags and banners. I know it didn't originate here and that we're 'stealing' from the continent but who cares? I never really understand why fans (beyond Celtic, Aberdeen, Palace, Accrington and a few others) aren't more into it in the UK - surely the more colour at a game the better?

 

[Hungry Joe]

surely the more colour at a game the better?

Is that supposed to be ironic?

 

[Superphil]

They'd make us take down the flags and stop singing so loud if we tried any of that at Withdean

prob cos we're so used to being told to sit in our seats and behave at most stadiums that we've become accustomed to it

 

[Brian Fantana]

York City have a great ultras section.

 

[Jack Straw]

They could teach our lot a thing or two about singing with passion, and slowly.
I especially like the bit at about 1.40 secs when you hear someone go "two three four", and they all go up a gear and drive on for another bout.
They seem a great bunch.

 

[DerbyGull]

I especially love the bit that starts on 42 secs

[Uncle Buck]

Certainly puts H Block to shame.

How do you know?

Certainly puts H Block to shame.

But of course if you were to start a 'should we have a drum' thread you'd get shot to pieces

 

[SuperFurrySeagull]

I know they're not to everyone's taste but, after seeing those clips, there's a lot to be said for having a drummer. Less irritating than a brass section & much more tribal.

In fact this could be merged with the 'demise of G.O.S.B.T.S' thread - a drummer (or two) would keep everyone at a decent pace.

Whoops..

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

How do you know?

From the half a dozen home games I've been to at Withdean.
For the record , my 5th away game of the season will be at Elland Road next month , where our vocal support is always top notch.

 

[Foolg]

It would be brilliant if we could get something like that going for away games, and possibly at Falmer to add a bit of character. Who cares if its stolen from the continent, would certainly liven things up!

 

[Wilko]

Hmmm, makes you wonder why we can't do summat like that seeing as York and Stanley can. If they can generate that support and organisation then surely we can?
