[Albion] The crowd tonight

[drew]

Think you need to get your hearing checked! That's rubbish, surely. We can hear the away fans singing from the other end of the stadium in the North - even when not all of them (city fans were good first half - silent second!). Surely that means they can hear us too - it was bloody loud most of the second half

Agree. TBTA in an episode of I didn't Know you cared called 'Uncle Mort goes to football!!'

Pearce isn't exactly impartial. He lives in Hassocks.

Think it's Hurstpierpoint actually (or Wickham Hill to be more precise).

... didn't know that... explains his ludicrous assertion that "the home crowd support has been amazing all evening"... City fans singing "Is this The Emirates?" obviously couldn't be heard in the Press Box..

I think they were actually singing 'is this the Etihad' which is quite funny tbf

Awful scenes in ESU close to FT ..fans staying and singing!

Think you missed the spell check so have corrected your post for you.

The Liverpool game proved it when we were taking it in turn to singing Albion Albion Liverpool Liverpool

Adore how these threads always descend into East and West (lower) ticket holders whinging about not being able to hear our fans. Are you not them? Could you not open your mouths to do something other than groan when we miss a shot?

We were sensational on and off the pitch last night. Just beautiful. With love from N1A x

Was absolutely dire first half ! But fair play second

Where were you sitting to say that? Boardroom?

Bad fan. TV. But it was like a morgue first half.

So you are commenting on something you didn't actually see with your own eyes or hear with your own ears but were piped through someone else's filters?

Maybe it was like a morgue the whole game, or maybe it was superb all game, or maybe they moved the microphones at half time, or maybe you sat on your tv remote control at half time and increased the volume ? We'll never know

But it's always good to know what people watching on the TV think

Out of interest how did the 2nd half sound on tv?

They were and yes it was amusing

Amazing...

Which is what most are saying that went to the game including my family. You are deluded if you think that the first half was a good atmosphere

 

[LamieRobertson]

Just a reminder….WE WON AND IT WAS F*****G AMAZING

Yeah there's been loads of occasions where the north has responded to the away fans and vice versa. Really don't buy the 'can't hear the north in other parts of the stadium' narrative as others have also confirmed on this thread. Just not possible last night - 2nd half especially was brilliant throughout: coordinated across the North for the most part (which was very refreshing!) and sustained chanting of various songs - blue n white army and Sussex boys in white and blue especially for ages, and you could see other areas of the ground joining in too. Some people really do have selective hearing eh

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Fair play to everyone joining in, at 1-1 I just knew it

That can happen when you're losing and can barely get a touch of the ball though.
