I do not normally go on about this never mind start a new thread but......Why the hell do the left side Pontoon sing the same song for 4 different players?  'Theres only 1 Jamie Devitt Craig Disley James McKeown Rossy Hannah? Please just leave it at Disley. Rossy is bloody awful for a song anyway. Gary Haddock and Jack Jones sort your gang out FFS.

Those drums are now truely horrific since added addition of a huge bass drum with one skin removed.
They are so loud that they drown out the efforts of at least 30 people singing.
Speaking to some dartford fans after they said all they could hear is the drum, however, chants without it came through really clear. Dartford fans did themselves proud with their core support singing (~150). If a drum had been there it would have ruined it.
One small drum is fine IF there has to be one at all. Keep the rhythm of a chant but ultimately, and most importantly, should be louder than the drum itself!
Whoever, those lads are in the middle back of the ponny are should be followed as an example. Jimmy Mac song and Ross Hannah tracks are different. Oh, and left side, singing "We are a right bunch if illegitimates" in your home ground is not really the done thing.

When I was a youth in amongst the throng of Town fans we jumped up and down and sung for most of the game, no drum then and maybe the occasional air horn.
They still don't get that any noise they create is sucked out to the north sea, they need to move closer to the away fans. When the Findus started singing so did the Pontoon and that drum is just plain excrement.
The Osmond corner should be opened up to Town fans, get the kids in there. The only reason why Towns younger element went into the left hand corner was when the away fans were inbetween the Pontoon and Main stand. They haven't been there for years and it's about time the younger element moved closer to the away fans, they are clever enough to do it at other clubs.
The players have upped their game and it's about time the youth that gather to sing do the same.

The atmosphere only started yesterday when the Dartford fans started taunting the Findus, then the Findus started singing followed by the Pontoon. No coincidence that the players then got on top and we scored.
I sit in the middle of the findus and all you can hear from the ponny is the drum, can see the kids in the corner standing up and singing but can't hear anything.
As for repetive songs, all the Dartford fans sung was "Can you hear us, we are Dartford" constantly

The were singing other clubs songs, the worst ones at that to, the Pompey, Millwall and then they even ripped off the slow chant of oh when the Town that we started in the 80's. That left corner should challenge the Findus and the Findus should challenge the Pontoon, then it could get interesting. |

When I was littler the atmosphere in the pontoon was just electric, I always used to go home with a horse voice and a new song memorised!
