Lower Smiths is dreadful, it's like an audience in a Snooker match.

I personally think it was the opposite, an awful atmosphere and has been the same for along time. I have seen some videos of Lincoln fans on youtube and despite there not being many of them they make a good atmosphere regardless of who they are playing.
I think the reason for the atmosphere is the fans aren't sure how to react. The moaners, who always used to make the most noise now have nothing much to moan about and the supporters who want to get behind the team are nervous in case we revert back to the team we were at home a few weeks ago. Along with there being so few away supporters they have nothing to bounce off. But the good times are coming back to Blundell Park and the noise will get louder the more the fans gain confidence in the team.

Agree, I thought it was flat as a pancake. Not often I feel inhibited to shout "Come on Town !" although to be fair, it did pick up. I guess it'll be a different story in the FA Cup. Well I hope so !

Maybe you're right. I just wonder if it's more a case of expecting the win and people can't get as excited about it.. Got to admit it though, we do have a lot of older supporters and those who just prefer to watch. In contrast, the Ponny certainly played their part.
I was in the lower smiths today and here was no atmosphere at all , nothing felt from the upper either. Main stand has always been quiet which leaves just a few in the ponny trying to give it a go. But realistically just how much atmosphere can be created in a ground that's two thirds empty and not many away fans to verbally spar with. The game today was pleasingly too comfortable today to get excited about to be honest.
