Comparing commitment of players downing tools to someone leaving early is ridiculous .Players are paid to play football,  that is their job. Supporters pay to go to games, therefore not the same at all. I don’t leave earlier and get annoyed with those who do, but then stop on the stairs to watch if there’s a corner or free kick, blocking other fans’ view. Also, citing other teams’ wonderful fans means you have probably forgotten that these teams also experience apathy. How many times in the last few years has Pep had a go at Man. City fans for their lack of noise. This season, Forest fans have been nowhere near as vociferous as last season and have booed the team off more than once. I’m really impressed that some of you on here have taken the time to assess the age groups of all other teams’ fans and decided we have the oldest. Does this mean that due to longevity, we are the most loyal? There are plenty of younger fans who don’t contribute noise wise. There are too many dictators on here who seem to think that having a ST for years because of support and love for the club, is somehow morally wrong! Perhaps those who suggest that the longtime fans only attend because of habit, have no money worries. Why would we  fork out upwards of £400.00 each year plus match day expenses just because we can’t be bothered not to renew?

The 'you pays your money you decide on how you support and when you leave' argument.  I think people are missing the point. That argument holds up well for when you purchase a match day stream from the club and watch at home. You are not depriving anyone a chance to support there. Do as you wish.  The stadium however has limited seats. The manager and most fans recognise that those fortunate enough to have a seat are therefore the only ones who can create the atmosphere and be the 12th man.  Purchasing a ticket and thereby depriving someone else that opportunity comes with a responsibility. Listen to the manager if you don't believe me....every week he is asking the fans to bring the noise and support.  I don't just buy a ticket to simply watch Leicester. I take a full day out of my weekend with my family to see them play but importantly give them that support and in turn get a buzz from that feeling when the team is playing  well and the fans are united and rocking the stadium. Nothing like it. Sadly people's selfish attitudes seems to be destroying that.  We are a collective..it only works if we are.  Instead we are thousands of individuals who think I'll just do what I want that suits me with no regard for the big picture.  Sad sign of the times. 

The fvck happened to paragraphs?

Watching the Watford Ipswich game, big gaps in the stands

. I bet the Watford owners would love a full house every week wether they stay till the end or not.

Bet the Watford players would want that full house to still be full after they'd delivered a 4-0 panning to stay top of the league too.

Watford is the standard we're holding ourselves to is it? Another pathetic pathetic excuse.

Initially I was going to totally agree with this. Through circs I can't go regular but would be up for the odd match (be quite vocal and stay until the end) but gave up trying to get a ticket years ago. However.... my nephew seems to be manage to get a ticket for most matches he wants to go. And, aren't a lot of other Prem and Championship clubs in a similar situation....?

As far as I’m aware other clubs aren’t militant about forcing memberships on their fanbases. I’d guess wee have gagged a high STH/Capacity ratio too but I’m not sure on that point.

I don't see any point fighting amongst ourselves over the problems that are being discussed. I totally admire UFS but think that the club is where the problem lies - and demographics, and there's nothing you can do about that.

It’s not just an English problem though. Sure, it’s not quite Germany or Eastern Europe, but there are countless loud stadiums in the country with fans that respond positively and negatively, but they’re vociferous in doing so. 
 

We are the Fulham of the Midlands.

Bit harsh on Fulham that.

Ah bless you are sensitive.  I actually thought it was quite funny. Certainly made me smile. Think it was probably the irony of having my grammar corrected by someone using the statement 'The fvck happened to paragraphs?'.   Kinda like farting out loud and your stinky ass dog looking at you with a disapproving look.   All good.

Being sensitive is actually a good thing, believe it or not, so your attempt at a putdown doesn't really sting much.

Honestly, I hope they do - I understand the problem and why some people feel so strongly about it.

I'm sadly not confident. Really hope to be proven wrong.

Tonight unlikely I am afraid.... plenty of tickets still left unsold which suggests a lot of ST holders might give it a miss.

After the last god knows how many pages of utter excuse after excuse of why the atmosphere is bad, let’s flip it around.. it’s match day!!!!!! Let’s have a good atmosphere in the section, if your seated just outside the standers, join in.. sk2 join in. Whether you like the songs or not (I don’t like all of them) but let’s all join in as one.. 

 

if any of the ufs lads are reading this, a bit of positive feedback for you.. As we already have a limited songbook then use all songs available.. 

 

we’re on the way

vichai had a dream

on Wednesday nights under the lights.

 

Air them more.. use player chants more (don’t wait for them to do something well) let them know we’re singing their name.. 

 

when I player goes off chant their song, when they come on chant their song.. 

 

Get fatawu chant going which is a belter.. 
 

just something I’ve noticed the last few matches.. and that’s not knocking the fantastic work your already doing..

player chants should be sung so much more. I sit in section and rarely hear them but can’t start them from where I sit. The Fatawu chant needs to be integrated as it’s amazing and I see him becoming a big player for us. Let’s get it rocking today

Sing the Mavididi chant early on. He had a belter in the last game, and its a brilliant chant. 

 

And lots of 'straight back up'. Even the old chaps near me sing that.
