slowandlow Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Wouldnt be surprised if every fan forum in the country had a thread with supporters moaning about the atmosphere at home games. Unfortunately, it's just the way football has gone in this country. Home support almost across the board can be amazing but more often than not its quiet and waiting for something to happen.

The Fun Factory Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 In 3 of our last 4 home games we have been a goal down within 30 minutes which doesn't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come back every time though which is not something you'd have seen previously. Unfortunately we've also retained our penchant to throw away leads too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The atmosphere generally tends to move with the performance/scoreline, unless it's a local derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turvontour Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 That goal before half time ensured a really nervy atmosphere from then on. Would have been far louder and upbeat second half without that. As I say, rightly or wrongly, it's the match circumstance that drives the atmosphere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbertoAVFC Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Utterly shocking atmosphere today. Like, I get we're playing poorly, but it's such a hindrance to the players if people don't sing and moan every single time the ball goes backwards/is given away.

I was under the impression football supporters support their team. The concept of "go to the footy, have a beer, have a sing, hope you win" is just utterly lost on much of our fanbase. They are perennial moaners. Just go and have fun and chill tf out, and I assure you the players will feel less anxious, the atmosphere will be more enjoyable for all and we have a better chance of winning.

There's no ground in the world that makes an artificial atmosphere on mass. You're getting wind blasted in your face you've been pissed on all morning. You watch that shite you ain't going to be singing. Not one player took the game by the horns. Snapped into a tackle. Showed any drive or intensity. There was no flash point or sustained pressure or blistering football pace or intent. How the heck can anyone get up and scream and shout. It was absolute turgid dross. Maybe if one player had shown am ounce of drive or spirit we'd have had something to cheer and get behind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's embarrassing. we didn't enter their half for the first 5 mins of the game despite having 100% of the possession. thats not an exaggeration. its a 2 way street. fans feed off the performance on the pitch. when they see effort being put in, they respond. the atmosphere matched the effort on the pitch, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our players must genuinely hate playing at home. No support, no singing just groans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted February 19, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 19, 2022 It was bloody cold, the team were showing nothing, there was literally zero entertainment, the frigging Curling is 10 times as exciting to watch as Aston Villa. Fans need SOMETHING to latch on to and we had nothing whatsoever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
