So BP it’s not like it used to be for sure but my experience is that our supporters get louder when we have a good go at scoring goals via attacking football. Playing out and getting up the field by “patient build up” which includes passing it sideways far too often doesn’t help.


Agreed. Definitely helps when there is a big away end on top of that.
Bradford this season and the second half of the Stockport game the season before spring to mind.
Both entertaining games and both had great atmospheres.

Atmosphere will continue to shrink as the family theme grows unfortunately....being sat in the Pontoon it's noticeable how the demographic in there now has changed down the years...when i first started going to BP in the late 70's the Pontoon was a feared place to go even  by home supporters...that continued into the 80's..

There are now large amounts of families, toddlers and teenage girls in there and with the best will in the world they don't bring a vociferous roar.




memories..memories  yes back in the day "when the pontoon was the Pontoon !" Last time i stood there town scarf jeans and wrangler denim jacket ..fellow that post of yours made me smile  ..hey i raise a glass to the old days
Times have changed thanks

Quoted from aldi_01
On the continent they’ve managed to create a pretty decent family atmosphere without the it being detrimental to the vociferous and loud fans and atmosphere.

I suspect the rules and regulations and the obsession with pedalling falsified information about crowd safety that’s also played apart.

Take Italy, you want loud singing and drinking, smoke bombs and flags, you go behind the goal. It’s carnage usually and a free for all. You want to sit down, enjoy the game and so forth, you sit down the side. Simple. Germany is very similar as is France and Holland.


As a semi-regular at the Parc y Scarlets and also Nottingham Panthers I have to say it feels like there's an agenda with the policing and stewarding of football compared to other sports, it's like the authorities don't want to let football progress - do they make loads of money off it?  Do some people keep cushy jobs by propagating it?

Would that be the same Holland where the Ajax game was abandoned at the weekend because of flares being thrown on the pitch?


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

...searches post for any mention of Holland....nope....nope again..... eventually shrugs shoulders and gives up..

Is this some sort of game where we interchange countries and sports in some bizarre twist of twinned towns?
