And as predicted out come the boring section of Coventry fans, who think if you're under the age of 20 you can't support the team properly. Note that teams with ultras, always fill their stands, and a,ways have a booming atmosphere, I'm not suggesting ultras, or just can't get enough, I'm putting forward a suggestion for potential new chants and songs, which we s
Desperately need, singing "we'll fight til the game is won" when we're 4-0 down to Walsall, isn't cutting it any more

And as predicted out comes the 20 year old who thinks anyone over the age of 40 has never been through the stage where on a Saturday they ve still got bags of energy and enthusiasm to jump about like a loon for 90 mins. You ll get there one day lad ;)

Any way on a serious note us walking corpses who were born before 1980 come from a different era as CYF has said. We didnt need singing scripts and enforced participation. We left that to the ice hockey fans. Being on a terrace lumped together not being watched like hawks by eager stewards and the tribal mentality involved created a decent atmosphere on its own. A lot of chants were spontaneous and funny. These days it's like going to the cinema apart from most weeks the film is crap. Certainly it's similar in terms of people seeming more interested in how much they can eat rather than the entertainment

That's one of my points aswell though, as you were all bunched in, I hate the ricoh

Not a fan of the Ricoh either but don t think its alone in being without atmosphere. Watching most games in this country now the atmosphere is dead.

Back in simpler times the match on a Saturday was the highlight of a lot of peoples week. These days everything including football is easily accessible to the point of saturation. On T.V, online, in the media. There's nothing special about it
