This is a big indicator that thousands need to stop having a St. 

 

Can't even stand up in exciting, critical moments in the game. 

 

Completely shit 

You the one who decides who gets to keep their ST?

Been a ST holder for something like 35 years and sat in the same seat since the new ground opened. I sing but I’m not going to be told to stand by someone who probably won’t be going in 5 years time.

No I'm not otherwise half of the 'kop' would be gone or relocated.

How many years have you been regularly attending home and away games?

22 years, although not sure what that has to do with anything.

Fair play, the reason I asked is that I’ve been to football with probably 50 people over the last 46 years of attending. Most of them stopped going the minute they got a partner, mortgage and/or child.

I love the atmosphere that UFS create but most of them won’t be there in a few years.

[RonnieTodger]

Tifo and singing section great.

 

Just not enough buy in from the rest of the ground. The Rennes game felt louder, which is mad.

Possibly. 

 

But the ground is full of people who have had St since the beginning of time and they aren't excited by it anymore. 

 

Fresh input from fans who aren't fatigued is badly needed. 

[Kegworthfox]

I sit in sk2 and the biggest problem is sk1 sing 1 song sk 3/4 sing a different song at the same time so until you all sing together it will be crap

I imagine tonight the ground had quite a few folk who arnt season ticket holders. 

[FoyleFox]

Tifo looked great. 

Singing section sounded good. We were in SK2 adjacent and definitely plenty joining in around us. Far more than when we were the other side of SK2, glad we moved over for tonight. 

Thanks for your efforts @Union FS

Those ST holders from the beginning of time?

The ones who were there through administration, relegation to the third tier, the Mclintock debacle etc?

If it wasn’t for them/us the club may not even exist.

I’ll hand over my ST when I’m ready not because some spotty Herberts decide they’re a better fan than me because they stand up for corners.

[OntarioFox]

Keep doing what you're doing. I thought the atmosphere was great in SK1 tonight.

 

No point getting worked up over others not joining in. If you keep it up it'll ripple across eventually.

The actual singing section was amazing. It was just the blocks in between in east stand and kop. Wouldn’t even stand up for “stand up if you love Leicester”

[lebleu]

I thought the atmos in the section was brilliant

Superb in the singing section again, I hope to move across next season back to where I started at the KP/Walkers. 

 

The rest of the ground must have been stunned into silence in awe. Fair play.

Looked absolutely superb from where I was sat. Amazing effort guys. Made us proud tonight.

 

Great work UFS... good pic too

[Jakemoore]

I thought the atmosphere was electric in SK1. The celebrations for the equaliser was up there with the best I’ve ever experienced. The only downside was that the whole ground seemed to go in to a state of mourning after we scored which was really weird. It was almost as if we felt nervous that we would throw it away…..I’ve no idea why we’d ever worry about that 😂

I’m convinced a good percentage of people who come to games couldn’t care less about what happens on the pitch, you’ve got hundreds of people running for the exits in the 86th minute in a European Semi Final. Imagine missing a winning goal..

[K1FOX]

Section brilliant. L1 I’m sure must have been decent too. Rest of the ground especially the majority of the Kop - Hang your heads in shame. That was a European semi final and majority of you couldn’t even get up and get excited for a corner or a chance. And no everyone hasn’t got physical issues. Just lazy, entitled and selfish people who think it’s a nice day out.

You see you're telling Lako42 he's deciding who gets a ST but you're here deciding who will or won't be here. You don't know that and it doesn't matter anyway. The make up of any collective of people will change over the years, some go, some stay, some arrive a bit late, it's not a pissing contest about number of years served or what you've experienced, it's about making the atmosphere better.

 

Mortagages & kids haven't stopped me over 35 years, some people move away, lose the buzz or simply can't afford it, all that's true (for all clubs) but a lot of fans - particularly the ones who put the effort in outside of a matchday, will continue to be involved for years. I don't get why people who sit in "The Kop" are so offended by the notion they're not singing, joining in or as you put it, standing up at corners. It's a fact. Look at other clubs, other grounds and aside from the likes of Norwich & St Marys, they have whole ends standing up for pretty much the whole game. It doesn't make you a "better" fan but it does contribute to a better atmosphere which on a Euro semi night we really needed.

And you know what, despite my 35 years following this club with all the cliched nonsense about being in 3 divisions, admin etc I'm not falling back on the stuff that the club may not exist without my contribution. That being the case doesn't give me any sense of being better than the "spotty herberts" who might have missed those events in our history. If they're singing their hearts out and putting in the effort to make the place a bit noisier and more colourful, fair play.

It`s almost like some people seem to think that the whole of the Kop end at Leicester was once an all singing all dancing end, but it never has been, not even in Filbert Street days, certainly not since the day they penned the old kop into four sections.

Our Kop never has been and probably never will be this singing utopia that some wish for.

Certainly not with some peoples attitudes. What I don’t get is people that moan about the atmosphere and don’t actively do anything to help change. 

[Unabomber]

If people can walk up the stairs to their seat surely they can stand up at important moments and create an atmosphere or am I missing something?
