Reesh Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Most of us on here are of a certain vintage, let's not pretend Hillsborough has been atmospheric bar the odd memorable occasions but it was organic, nowadays we have a generation or two that don't know anything bar being led by THEM *****. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The myth is that in the past it was great. As you say there were days, more likely evenings it was top drawer, but they were an exception Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoylandOwl Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I remember in the early nineties when we were chuffing good, almost every player had a chant of their own and you’d hear them in the warm up to every game. It was only a little thing, but it’s something I vividly remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Internet Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Maybe it's rose tinted specs time but one of the things I remember and what helped to hook me, was hearing the crowd singing as you walked to the ground. Way before kick off. And no deafening music playing over the speakers or forced sing-a-long Hi-Ho Sheffield Wednesday. Players would just run out to their respective ends to the roar of the crowd. Think the loud music before kick off doesn't help atmosphere as that's all you can hear for 5 minutes or so and then it just gets cut as the game kicks off, leaving a kind of void awkward silence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they turned up it was under Tricky. Europe, tipped for the title, Waddle, Walker, Now where are we? Jonah's the lot of em. Rugby, Boxing or England at the same time and they're gone. Why the fuck are we still putting up with these wankers at the club? They have killed the atmosphere, moved my season ticket from the Kop that I'd had for years as they were ruining my tabs.

Chelters Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I must confess I’m waiting to see what happens tomorrow night before deciding whether to go on Saturday. Really feel bad saying that but I don’t fancy the 300 mile round trip if we continue to bottle it and the crowd get restless (which I totally understand atm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
