Atmosphere at the new ground

Sun Jan 10, 2010 5:46 pm

The atmosphere at the ground is getting worse by the game, hardly surprising with all the events happening off the pitch!

Do you think City will do a u turn & put the Canton stand next to the away fans to regenerate some atmosphere next season?

Something has to change for parts of the game yesterday you could here a pin drop in the ground!

the atmosphire is dire , i think a lot of supporters have given up trying to get a few songs going because of the stewards telling them to sit down and because of other fans complaining about them standing the heart has gone from the club and the club is dying :evil:

if they listened to the fans and gave us the canton end it would be problem solved.

You know its bad when you can hear the players shouting,as I did a few times yesterday.I thought those days were past us back when we broke the 5k attendance barrier.Its embarrasing on times.

Agree the atmosphere at times is an embarrassment, it will NEVER top Ninian Park. :cry:

everyone is feeling down and sombre at the moment.

If City gave us some good news then it might get a bit better.

You could feel the tension in the air yesterday.

the last game at ninian park i said my farewells, and hated the thought of moving, but everyone was like "yer can't wait" "yay new stadium" etc

R.I.P Cardiff City as we once new it! Its definatly not the same for me :cry:

Well I never thought I'd see the day that I looked at the away fans in admiration, and thought that's exactly how I felt at the last away game. But on Boxing Day I did. It was similar to us at Boro in terms of home and away fans not singing/singing.

But what can we do? The Grange tried, a tiny proportion of the Bob Bank tried, but otherwise nothing. It's like being at a rugby yawnion match.

As has been said, over zealous stewards and "new" spectators who are in the wrong section of the ground and evidently don't know what supporting the team is all about are strangling those of us who want to sing.

I usually sit at the back of the canton end and the atmosphere in the ground has been awful. Yesterday I sat in the grandstand, right close to the pitch and the atmosphere sounded pretty good. I'm wondering whether the the sound generated hits the pitch but doesn't get into the stands.

That said we are lacking a good range of songs.

There was also an incredibly high number of shit atmospheres at Ninian, which people tend to forget.

its not the same, you all can stand togther, you cant stand, and its abit crap sitting in your seat singing, everyone around you is like "wtf is this guy doing", we need to get that canton stand back and stick all the die hards in there singing and making atmospehere, then let the plastic prawn boys sit where they want to clap the team and read a paper!

are the club willing for the fans to move there st then?

Re: Atmosphere at the new ground

no they want to keep it all plastic in the stadium, no chanting towards the away fans etc they want everyone in thier seats and clapping goals, even the wayne nash who once was arrest at stoke for football voilence wants it like that :roll:

they want all the grange enders well away from the away fans, hence they stick the family stand next to them :evil:

I was all in favor of the new Stadium in an up wards and onwards type way, but I've been really disappointed with the atmosphere. My prediction is that it will get worse and any singing will eventually fizzle out apart from reaction to goals etc. We simply have to get the Grange and Canton swapped.

Common CCFC, admit it was a mistake and get it changed

all i can say is, theres gonna be some f*cking old looking kids in grange when swansea come down :lol:
