kidlewis Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 i know yeh your right mate. we are in desperate need of some new songs our current ones are old and dated also we need to stop singing about the blues there irrelevent to us now there in championship, sing songs to get behind the team. that is the exact reason why I joined this forum. To try and get some new songs in the mix. I think the people that are talking of getting new songs are the ones who are willing to get together to sing them. How would we go about getting tickets in the same area of the holte end upper? I know some of you will have season tickets but think we should try and get seats relatively close together somewhere so we can all have a good sing song. I know championship clubs like blues allocated a section of their stadium to get songs going. I remember central news saying Blues allocated 300 seats for people that get the chants going. Problem is I think they got it organised for season ticket holders only at the beginning of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would we go about getting tickets in the same area of the holte end upper? For Carling Cup games and the early Uefa Cup games the singers from the Upper Holte should move to the lower North. You could have a bit of banter with the away fans then, i mean the rest of the Holte didn't join in singing last night anyway so it was pointless the ones in the Upper even bothering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I would be up for sitting anywhere where we could get some new chants going. How do you think we could get us new singers all together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gort Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I would be up for sitting anywhere where we could get some new chants going. How do you think we could get us new singers all together? Well obviously we're out of the Carling Cup now and next week's game is the only 'crap' Uefa Cup game left but next season just spread the word and try and get the singers from the Upper Holte to move to the lower North for these lesser games. Or if we get a rubbish team in our group in the Uefa this season we could do it. I think we need a standing and singing section in the lower North for all games anyway, a lot of away fans come to VP and they can't even hear us singing in the Holte. We need fans right next to the away fans who are going to sing all game, like Albion's Smethwick End on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Is the lower north stand open for all or is it season ticket holders? I think you can get up to 6 tickets per booking. If we can work out which seat and row numbers to get can make sure I get tickets near you blackcountryvilla. I think next season we should try and see if we can get a designated area of Holte or North stand for us singers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think next season we should try and see if we can get a designated area of Holte or North stand for us singers. Well the back of the Upper Holte is already the 'unofficial designated standing/singing area' and there are good numbers up there who stand and sing every game but the noise doesn't travel at all. Hardly anyone else in the Holte joins in anyway unless we're winning or playing Blues so it won't hurt anything if the singers moved. If we could transport all those from the back of the Upper Holte to the lower North it would be brilliant, imagine 3000 stood in there singing every game and having banter with the away fans. Teams wouldn't slag our fans off then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heystally! Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 It's all about getting new songs sung on the road. Everyone knows 'John Carew, Carew' etc now, and when it's sung at VP, everyone gets into it and it can be heard for miles. And i'm pretty sure that was first being sung before we played Man Utd last season at Old Trafford. It's all about the away fans getting pissed up in the pre-match pub and singing some new songs, then bringing them back to VP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First heard it being sung at the back of the holte at the game before the utd one. Can't remember who it was against though. Really did take off after the utd game.
