Carlos88LCFC Posted 3 September 2014 Share Posted 3 September 2014 But they have THE SHITTEST home support! 75,000 seats but no songs or anything... We have both home and away And they don't have the best away following in the country either. But I can't be bothered getting into that!

Bayfox Posted 3 September 2014 Share Posted 3 September 2014 there always used to be a fair few leicester based utd fans in the east stand at filbert st. yes you need to be loyal to get tickets. but as we know. that doesn't mean you have to live in manchester.

Stadt Posted 3 September 2014 Share Posted 3 September 2014 Leeds support is incredible and quite strange really. They're absolutely shit especially away but they sell out in minutes for most games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weller in Tights Posted 3 September 2014 Share Posted 3 September 2014 I hate to say it, but its Leeds who have the loudest away support. That's my experience over the last 45 yrs I've been going the footie. I've followed Leicester pretty much everywhere and have been a regular at Filbert Street and the Walkers/King Power. I've also followed England home and away. Can't stand Leeds, I've come across a lot of them following England and they come across as Neanderthal racist scum, but I will concede, they are loud, persistent, angry and aggressive. Sometimes other teams give a good show, Man U are up there, also Sheff Weds, but Leeds are the loudest and keep going even when losing. But.... Leicester are the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember them start to wave a flag in the away end once with something like ’Leicester reds' on it. That hate and abuse aimed in there direction was ferocious and fantastic.

Carlos88LCFC Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 Please do. Who is better? Leeds the only ones to get close in my opinion. Both sets of Scousers and Toon all overrated.Well they have the "biggest" away support in numbers but they are no means the best...You can only fit so many fans in a ground, we've sold out for stoke... United could only bring the same amount as us... Does that make us joint best? You will find a lot of away ends fill up quickly in the premiership regardless of having the biggest away support. Leeds, Liverpool, Newcastle, Everton, Crystal Palace... That's just to name a few that are known for being louder. Just done some research and the loudest away roar ever recorded in English football goes to Liverpool in a game against Cardiff... So United are the biggest not the best. I personally think this season we will be/ have been louder than United. Edit: and being the best surely means being the 12th man and being noisy for your team right?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Clearly I'm not judging numbers as the top 5/6 in the PL sell out everywhere in minutes (with the exception of Man City, maybe). I'm talking about constant support, noise, variety of songs, scenes when goals go in, black jacket percentage. Manchester United are head and shoulders above all of the teams you mention there (except Leeds, perhaps) in each of those categories. Crystal Palace known for having louder away fans, are you sure? Palace may have great home support but I've only ever seen the Holmesdale Fanatics pull an away game off well at Arsenal last season. Even that day they were supported by a Greek Ultra group. Nice research about one roar though - nice and relevant. Next you'll be telling me that Stoke have the best home fans... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishOxide Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 Sometimes other teams give a good show, Man U are up there, also Sheff Weds, but Leeds are the loudest and keep going even when losing. I'd have agreed with that a few seasons ago. But I've been less than impressed by them lately. Maybe having a shit football team for so long is finally taking its toll.

Burbo17J2 Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 Just done some research and the loudest away roar ever recorded in English football goes to Liverpool in a game against Cardiff...

You don't seem to have the nicest attitude yourself. Want to stand up? Here, I'll just issue you with a childish insult even though it's a perfectly acceptable venture you're engaging in.
