Bilo Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 Most of us all sit in L1 anyway and i can assure you if an ultra group got going, and everyone involved met up before the game, had flags made, bounced all game and sang all the new songs AFIE and others came up with it would be a lot better one of the most fun i have had at a home game was at swansea home in the FA cup we had about 10 of us bouncing and singing european songs we came up with and i loved it and so did everyone we were with if i could do that every game with a bigger group i would chose that over L1 cause not everybody in L1 is like that, they'd happily sing 'leicester leicester leicester' but nothing with a few more words so it's just about getting enough people together who are willing to make flags sing new songs and maybe a bit of pyro too ..... That's the other possibility of course, as there are areas of the ground where we could do this. The back of SK1 is seldom full and therefore ripe for this kind of thing. Cheaper than the other blocks too. If the Ultra plan worked out fully, this could indeed be better than L1. Though L1 probably has the most potential of all parts of the ground right now.

LCFC-ARAB Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 Requested to join the group on faceybook, and joined the UK Ultras' forum. We could be onto something special, although if it's in L1 we might have trouble getting new people in for home games. I don't think i've mentioned it yet but we arent that keen about basing our selfs in L1 like you said it's full already, and i dont think they'd be that keen on a european style group will be much easier and more fun if we went to a part of the ground with no people there having a go at us for waving a flag or singing foreign songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOWFOX Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 Back of SK1 would be prime location for me as this is where my season ticket is however, it has to suit the majority obviously. On the flag front, I am not at all artisticy(sp) so if i tried to design one it will probably look crap, i'll give it a go after dinner though, any particular message which people would like on the flag? Me and my bro are back row of SK1 next season aswell, so that's 3 of us Would love to move to L,K or J3 but unfortunately the price increase is abit too much on top of the travel costs. I'm going to work on a flag or 2 over the next couple of weeks, i'll update with pics when i start on something. The idea about trying it out during pre-season is definately a good idea, far more relaxed stewarding and policing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrenchel Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 Back of SK1/G1 corner probably gives it most chance of success of sustaining as an ultra group. Whether people are willing to give up their seat in L1 on the chance that it will work out is another question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my exact area of the ground I sit right on the dividing barrier between these two blocks, there are never more than 10 people in this area so it would definately possible for people to congregate there.

Think this was our original idea Not expecting it to turn the Walkers into Besiktas ground straight away but it will certainly increase mine and others in the groups enjoyment of home games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samlcfc Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 joined your group on facebook. Quality idea lads if it can get in motion. I know id enjoy a game much more if I was in a group like the one being suggested. Jumping around and going mad is fine , but mixing that with some proper flags and some actual songs would make for a great time every match. I definately thin there would be more people encouraged to join in if it got on well and could end up being something great. Worth a shot id say, you never know if you dont try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfc_sam_p Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 N block not an option then? as it would be good to be near the away fans aswel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fosse Boy Posted 19 May 2010 Author Share Posted 19 May 2010 N block not an option then? as it would be good to be near the away fans aswel? What I was thinking. Problem is that area tends to be more crowded than SK1. You're right though, N is an ideal location - behind a goal and next to the away end.

I don't think so We dont want to do anything extra that will get Barclay on our case and they will most likely have to get extra police in if theres an extra little group singing all game bouncing right next to the away fans etc.... and we're not really big on the whole 'who are ya who are ya' chanting anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right though, N is an ideal location - behind a goal and next to the away end. It's a good idea, just more likely that the Club would stamp down and eradicate the group before it really gets going due to the block being more family orientated & we'd end up having the same problems as before with N Block. It has to be an option though, I think we have more of a chance of making the group successful by leaving L1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCFC-ARAB Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 Flags are allowed into the ground i think theres just a size limit to the pole we will have to email the club to find out i'll pretend i am a mother of 3 and my children want flags, they'll be sure to email back then and i dont think the Fire certificate is that big a deal with regards to flags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samlcfc Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 Dont they have to have a fire safety certificate for the flags to be allowed in the ground? Thats what i thought. What people are suggesting seems to have flags heavily based in the equation but getting them in could be a big ask. Im sure if anyone tried to get to get flags allowed inside the ground and the club put it together theyd just tell you to do one aha. Any type of jubilation from fans and im sure the club would want to be able to stop it and an easy way for them to do that is just ban the groups flags for "health and safety reasons".

Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 19 May 2010 Share Posted 19 May 2010 It won't happen because to many 'Green Streets' will associate it with violence, get involved, generally fuck about and cram any kind of hope for something like this down the shitter.
