Shocking yesterday..full house my ass...empty seats all around me in the loft. But was like a libary at times.

Shocking yesterday..full house my ass...empty seats all around me in the loft. But was like a libary at times.

I sit in JU and it was absolutely packed though that may be because most of it is in Silver and it looked completely full on all sides from what I could see except the upper school end

The atmosphere was shocking though even after we scored

there were dotted seats everywhere in the loft... just 1 there 2 there.

totally wedged where I was in ER. I couldn't even see a single empty in the vicinity. Was more of a nightmare than usual even having a beer and wee at half time.

The team didn't help the atmosphere and nor did the away fans.

i know players help atmosphere...... but we were losing 6 0 and were doing better then that and fulham

We always make a better atmosphere away from home -- but yesterday was unbelievably poor right from the off.
I felt there was a lot of nervousness from the crowd, especially by the end, which, given the Fulham result, and the way the game was going yesterday, was understandable.

(btw, the singing was in the wrong language for most of those around me in the Ellerslie yesterday (English). Can't believe an Italian asked if his wife could take a photo of him with me and hubby as we were "Eengleesh fotbol fans"!! I feel like a tourist attraction now!)

I just hope the derby factor will get the crowd going next week.

totally different - was away for one, which is always better and there is a sense of humour in the banter when you are 5+ down. I remember at Leeds....

When your in R block it sounds really loud. But when you sit by the away end you can't hear much at all.

just because the seat is empty ..it doesnt mean that it hasn't been sold.

i agree about the atmosphere..start of the second half was sooooooo quiet!

True, season tickets seats cannot be resold and they do not always turn up for every game. Hence empty seats.

I saw from HU (Upper Loft) that there were seats available in ellerlslie (in one case a block of about 5) probably a family of season ticket holders who could not attend. Oh well, should be full next week vs the ****.
