    Highfield Road or Ricoh?

    I started going to HR as a kid in the early 70s and stood on a wooden crate in the Kop. I used to long to go in the West End where the noise and antics were. One magic day I was allowed to go in there, I loved the deafening noise of the two sets of fans singing at each other across the barrier...

    Last Nights Support..

    According to the 'Leeds view' elsewhere there were 48 Cov fans in the away end. Not being bitter is he ? He also said there was a poor crowd and no atmosphere, also no doubt the fault of 'pathetic' Cov. So pathetic they didn't lie down and allow the mighty Leeds, greatest of the great, to...

    Just cant get enough

    Well you suggest something better then, or better still you get the crowd going. Thought it added to the atmosphere yesterday. For years we've been accused of having one song. Fair play to the Singers Corner I say.

    Atmosphere

    If Jesus walked among us again he'd surely follow Cov. He wouldn't have any time for the money grabbing bastards in the Premiership and given his often demonstrated compassion for the unfortunate, of all clubs supporters he would surely pity us the most. Other clubs have had their celebrity...

    Our fans...

    Like a lot of threads on here I can see both sides. I was there and didn't cheer/jeer them off. That's because in my view sport is all about confidence and once any player starts bearing the brunt of fans' vocal displeasure it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. They groan when he makes a...

    Atmosphere

    Goes to show how much atmosphere can help. First half hour we were being beaten with ease and it seemed like it would be one of those nights when the away support had a whale of a time. Last ten minutes or so of the first half when we started to assert ourselves the crowd stirred. Second half...

    12,300 there today

    Too much doom and gloom. Today was a pretty entertaining game. Sure we made mistakes but we created quite a few chances and despite their position Reading are far from one of the worst teams we'll play. Similarly we are far from relegation certainties.

    What was you're worst ever awayday?

    Went to a lot of away games without seeing us win or even score ! 3 - 0 at Arsenal, 3 -0 at Leeds etc etc. Luckily I wasn't at The Hawthorns for the 7 - 1 or Southampton for the 8 - 2. West Ham in the 2nd round of the League Cup semi final is mine. A goal up after the first leg after a...

    More money for Fester

    Kermogant on same page If you'd gone bust only a few years ago and shafted a load of local businesses it would be only fair and decent to pay them back when you suddenly had lots of dosh. I'd be very surprised if the powers that be at Leicester didn't agree and I'm sure that's their main...
