Is it fair to say now, that it has died down completely?

We took over 1000 yesterday and we made no noise!

Ok, there wasn't a roof but still! poor atmosphere!

True, Sheffield was amazing, and when there is no roof it is really hard to start an atmosphere
But we need to siege at Home too, So Tranmere!

And when you hoping for the scarves to be done?

Deffo for Tranmere, 50/50 for the Walsall match :) Orient will be good and Wycombe is always awesome!Possibly Daggers too and Oldham, Bournemouth. Some awesome aways coming up.

Going to get a siege banner (long rectangle) with any profit from the scarves, which will look awesome, especially with everyone holding up their siege scarves at aways!

It was probably the worst atmosphere I've ever seen from City fans. Can't blame the lack of a roof as when we did sing it could be heard pretty clear, and Walsall managed to create a decent atmosphere last week at SJP with about 1/4 of the fans!

Thought Yeovil fans were excellent in the second half.

If we had a roof yesterday it would have been amazing, but without one all the noise is 'dead' it disappears with nothing to funnel it. So you give up after a while. Yeovil only had about 15 fans signing for the most of it, but have a stand that is a) not too big and b) has both sides filled in with sheeting.

It's no coincidence that Walsall and Sheffield United had away ends that help towards the noise. This coupled with siege mentality = great atmosphere.

Walsall will be great, do will Orient, Wycombe is always superb for atmosphere. Bring it on.

We need to keep it going because we ain't out of the woods and it isn't job done.

So siege on Wednesday and beyond.

We wasn't loud at Yeovil but i thought from where i was stood the noise made /10 would've been 5 being okay.. it's the kind of away stand which you need a drum or something to be heard

i think we need to build a Torquay style away end which shouldn't really cost that much?

#1: If you don't have a roof the noise will be terrible, just like most away fans who come down to SJP.

#2: There were only a few Yeovil fans singing, but because there stand behind the goal is much smaller than ours, it's easier to get a good atmosphere going.
