You can practically predict how every home game is going to play out under Potter. The money I’ve won backing a draw is quite substantial.

Ha ! Tell us more !! The last run of competitive games at the Amex with a crowd are W,L,W,L,W,W,D,L,D
2 draws out of 9...

It's not the fans fault.
It's not the players fault, or the result of poor performances.

It's the stadium. We need a Kop. We have a Kop, people will sing. We should do what we can to get one, i don't care about the symmetry of the stadium. There is a huge distance between the back row of the North and the roof. Big enough to put boxes in above the South. There are loads of offices beyond the North apparently. Build it higher, build it steeper, add a load of capacity in there and get people singing.

I miss the North Stand at the Goldstone, but I'll be more upset if my kids don't get to experience being in a proper singing stand behind the home goal

They are using that space above the North for more corporate seats. Classic Barber.

Why did we start singing Albion- Albion ( copied from Liverpool I guess ) and stop singing the upbeat Albion, Albion, Albion ( here we go tune ) ? ???

It was decided on a collective decision based on certain members of our fans feeling the song was far too long and winded. The 2x Albion version we now sing gives more punch but at a slower pace. It was always going to happen.

Agree the old one is way better than the Liverpool dross. And the seagulls chant on corners used to be good when everyone joined in.

Haven’t we just drawn the last 5 out of 6 ??? Oh yeah I only mentioned home games. You didn’t just Google that did you ? :lolol:

All credit to you. I doubt anyone on here would have predicted draws against Liverpool, Norwich, Arsenal and Newcastle and i doubt anyone else on here thinks Potter , who changes formation and tactics and teams like there's no tomorrow, is predictable . How much did you win ?

Sorry I don’t understand or please give me a whoosh if I’ve missed an obvious joke here :shrug:

Ok, did EVERY home fan really join in with the Seagulls chant?

Yes, there were occasions when things were going well when The Goldstone reverberated, but it could also be as much of a library as The Emirates is now.

It just seems everyone is taking a trip down memory Lane when everything was better!
