I tried this once in the upper findus and get a reaction with fellow mariners singing along and then on another game I get told to shut up and sit down we were losing at the time can't remember the game.

Ah well some fans just want to watch the game - can't really blame them too much I suppose. For me it comes back to the issue of where pockets of vocal support (should) end up - I'm on the left but notice it's often a lot noiser over to the right.

I think through the years the ponny has always been the loudest of the stands, and maybe the regular findus folk prefer to just watch. I don't know it's a toughie.

I'll be in the pontoon with a group of young lads, singing and chanting away as usual. Really up for this one too. Come on town!

I hate to say to but grimsbys finest is right, the pontoon is awful these days. For all of his drumming critics at least gilly (shít drummer) did make a good atmosphere at times but even his stopped going. Now i feel embarrased to sit in the supposedly noisey top left of the pontoon! Filled with to many phone obsessed teens that are more concious of how they look than the final result.

I think the Pontoon as always been the best atmospere although the lower findus you can. Hear some banter too, I usually go in the lower findus but will be up in the upper findus tomorrow to make a change.

Quoted from 1600
If we could get the Pontoon going AND the Osmond (not forgetting the noisy Upper Smiths brigade on the RHS or those in the main stand) we'd have the best support wherever the ball is.
But should the best or most vocal supporters huddle together in the Osmond first off for most impact ? You tell me...
I think it would be silly to spread them/us about at first. I think we should aim to get a section together first and then build up the surrounds of bp when the crowd rise as the season goes on which will mean we are still in the hunt. I feel this can be achieved very easily if we stick together and give it a real go. This may sound viciously funny to the old uns but if we make the same noise if not more than dartford did here I would be a very happy man....its a start.

Always welcomed to move to the other side of the stairs with me and the other lads I go with, the more loud people grouping together the better, leave those phone obsessed teens to the corner.

Tell you what Gary, credit given where due. You lads take alot of abuse which isnt really fair, to be honest you there only part of the ground who sings for 90 minutes.
