Who said I was an ultra? And what do you know about my personal circumstances that lead me to this choice?

I like to think that there of those of who know we can't and don't bother. On hearing some of the drivel sung at games I wish a few others would do the same.
My God, it was better when they were singing stuff they'd heard on Soccer AM in the morning.

Good. Those that can, do. Those that can't, criticise.

It's more like a case of those who can't do I'm afraid.

Just have very strong opinions on somevsupporter sects, yet you are not at the game.

That's all that seems to happen these days, gone are the days of a torrent of noise at away games. Unfortunately, if you dare suggest otherwise, you're told to "f*** off and support the team".
A great shame.

Yes, I can't make EVERY game on account I have a LIFE outside of FOOTBALL. Sorry UB, I absolutely have no right of opinion. And my "very strong opinions" are only in response to some right idiots on this forum having a constant snipe at people trying to support their team. It's just so unnecessary. You sir are just a troll, but I'm happy to keep feeding you until you stop stereotyping and lambasting such fans.

Isn't it funny......people are moaning about the atmosphere being shite and people are also moaning that some big nasty away fans have called us woolly woofters!
....just saying!

Agree that those songs are all piss poor. Your criticism is spot on. I know for a fact though that despite what some on here will jump to assume, they weren't all being started by the same group of people.
The people who like to start songs and sing the loudest will gather at the back of the stand, that doesn't mean they actually all know each other.

Some of our away support struggle to stand up at matches after a day on the sauce.
Getting their heads round new songs is a task too far.

Also I do not get why they always have to sing 'Place is a shit hole, I want to go home'.
Everywhere they seem to go is a shit hole and they always wants to go home. So firstly if they know it is a shit hole, why did they go in the first place? If they want to go home, nobody is stopping them.

Exactly.
Stick to the well known songs, try the occasional new one. Don't make a big fuss about it.
No need for Ultras.

For everyone who comes on here saying this song and that song are bobbins: suggest an alternative. Otherwise, we sit there in silence - like at Withdean. Remember that?

A lot of the people saying certain songs are naff are people who have sung at away games for years.

Yeah and that chant about us being "by FAR the greatest team the world has ever seen" whats that about when United have won the Premier League so many times and we never even made the Champions League.
Our history is littered with songs that make as much sense as the new ones. As others suggested if you sing the songs you like maybe others will join in if they like them too. If that doesn't work go sit with the oldies who dont sing, enjoy the game and don't come on here moaning about young people and their matchday experiences.

But what if their drivel is ruining the matchday experience?

Some of the shit coming out of some was borderline retarded last night-way past cringe!! Looking forward to Middlesbrough to be honest!! 'dirty northern bastards' as a normal song-not after a bad challenge! ' I want to go home' now sung at every away town and way to early and why the sodding hell are people singing IS THAT your fire drill when we're 1-0 down
Its the wrong words and have these people been to the Amex!!!!! Shame I used to love our away support when I started going

As a usual Ultra sceptic, I have to say I was looking forward to some sort of Ultra-style disaply at the Palace game like you see the Homesdale Fanatics do.
Wasn't forthcoming.

Not sure it helped last night that you could not get a beer in the ground, meant the drivel became more noticable.
Boro should be a more select travelling support, a bit too far for many of last nights offenders.
