I understand that the band were brought in to bring some more atmosphere to the game and encourage the crowd but it was just a racket which extinguished any kind of atmosphere.

Had they done the drum beats to 'black and white army' or the 'fish' song or trumpeted to songs for fans to sing to this would help more rather than drown out the little atmosphere us fams are providing at the moment.

With little to cheer about on the pitch we need to provide something to get fans back on side

The band should be band.

My suggestions for making a better atmosphere:

Win some games.
Score some goals.



Never drink in a pub with a flat roof.

They didn't know the tune for 'You don't know what you're doing'

What was all that stuff going on at half time in the Osmond corner yesterday?

You miserable so and so.

The band was great - without them what "atmosphere" do you think we would have generated?

Of course you can. It is whether you want to join in or not. Everybody I was with or next to in the pontoon seemed to be enjoying it - especially the kids.

The club can't win really - do nothing and it is like a library and try something and people don't like it. Yes we do get atmosphere when everything is going well and we are scoring goals for fun but we are not - hence the band was a good idea.
