Was told of in 124 by some 60 year old'ish woman and her man when I was singing. Makes you wonder why the fuck they just don't sit at home in front of the telly.
sadly alot of people treat going the match like they are at home infront of the telly. They want an unrestricted view. Dont disrupt their train of thought with singing or chanting or shouting.
I think the fans lack confidence in the team.
this is the rub, twenty years ago we had black novemeber, when a succession of defeats in the league left us with little chance of catching arsenal or the mancs for a title challenge. Since then we've got worse with black octobers, septembers and augusts and other teams have had billion pound spends to get them up their competing. Season after season of transition, 5 year plans, new managers, 2nd rate players and we go in hoping that we'll luck out. No real belief that the team will really do anything.
Nobody went into last season with genuine belief we'd win the title but a good run of form saw momentum build and atmospheres improve. One step forward for the team and atmosphere and another set back when we sell our best player and back to small time mentality signings. Young fellas and outcasts that we hope turn up and put in a performance. We've been indifferent all season with very little to sing about. We're having abit of a run of form, we've made inroads in closing the points gap, and the january window is here.
Here's to hope!
