One other thing I was gonna say though, you know you said "But the younger lads are more for modern short and fast beated typ chants and songs."
Take your point and they can have them but wouldn't it be great for everyone if we had this a bit similar to "You'll Never Walk Alone" ?
My point is, if you're trying to fill the whole ground with noise, short snappy tunes are always necessarily the best ?
Yeh it would be great. I'm sure if we can get it sorted for a few older lads, like the shufflers in the pontoon to start then others will follow. The young uns, I have realised that just like me a lot of them look up to the older fans (though the older fans don't seem to like it LOL).

Well put that wrong really and kinda stereotyped, sorry. The shufflers are always alright and good bunch and want us to join them, but there a few other that I have heard say "tell the kids to f*ck off back to the corner" and other comments not much diferent to that. Also heard/read comments on here and else where about "kids." Such as "there are too many 'kids' in the pontoon" and stuff like that. Which is daft because age, looks, etc etc shouldn't even matter because all that should matter is that we support the same club and all want to get behind the lads.

No need to apologise, I was just suprised older fans wouldn't like younger ones looking up to them and was just a bit suprised.
Sorry to hear those stories and when I say "kids" or young uns I don't mean to be derogatory or make anyone feel any less valued.
Why do you think they said "tell the kids to f*ck off back to the corner" ? No-one wants their thunder stealing ?

Oh BTW Meza just in case you didn't know that "It's all your fault" was a joke cos it's a chant often heard at grounds ? Don't worry I'm not blaming anyone just in case you thought I was.

One or two might of been about seats but think the majority (though when I say majority I've heard it about 4 times in the last league home games only) because of they don't like the noise and joining in. There's a big divide in the pontoon, I don't really know why, but left side above the tunnel (left of the goal facing the osmand) most of the fans there like to be vocal and join but then you only have to go across the stairs and most fans that side (the right side) are sat quiet with the odd one or two clapping and maybe singing/chanting. I didn't realise this though until we had moved to join the shufflers in the middle(ish). Think you would have to see it for yourself really to get an idea of what I mean.

Strange it may be but yep, there are a few in pontoon that don't like the noise, some say it's because of the chants and songs sang but I have noticed that even when they sing old(ish) songs like, Three little birds, Can't help falling in love, and others, they still don't seem to like it. There is a divide between fans, I don't know what exactly know what it is but I have noticed it on here, and at BP. Though away games is completely different, I have no idea why that is either.
