Great post 80s
We attend more away than home and revel in the generally excellent away following..
Chesterfield away a few seasons ago and Cambridge away in league last season just two of many faves, but  when you get atmosphere in pontoon it takes some beating
It's like a belonging
Let's hope the recent run and the slightly more positive postings we are seeing on the fishy and the quality of squad and football we are capable of playing get us out of this league this season
Come on Town!!

To continue the waffle...

What I mean is fans can help do many things to support - e.g. cheer the team on, put off the opposition the obvious ones.

And not "blowing my own trumpet" here but there was an incident last night that made me wonder if I personally had some effect
(sure I probably didn't !)

The ball went over into the opposition corner and looked to me like Arnold had stopped cos he thought it was going out of play.
I could see it wasn't though so shouted "Chase it Nathan !" (or something like that)
And I think (very BIG 'not sure' here) he might have heard me and picked up to press the defender to win the corner.
Nothing came of it of course - probably imagining it all and sure it may be complete boll0cks anyway.
But we can all TRY to be creative thinking of ideas and stick the effort in if we really want to.

Maybe (in an ideal 'fortress' world) we could do with "spotters" or "wind up merchants" in the corner.
However what the club thinks of potentially playing tough and dirty in this manner (or is it all just 'fair game' and down to supporters so long as they follow the ground's entry rules ?) I've absolutely no idea whatsoever !

I just had a horrible flash of the future. Professional fans, trained in the art of verbally abusing opposition players while acting as a third eye for their own players. "Bob Miggins completed his transfer from Preston to Bolton for an undisclosed fee. The highly rated corner pisstakers wages are believed to be in the region of two meat pies per game"

Then again, nothing really new about the concept, the premier league have bee doing it for years.
