Nah, we need to berate people for not funding the club, and for being fair weather twats.

That's a great post. I have every respect for those going to st Andrews, but I decided against it. I have simply shut out Saturdays and tried getting on with other things so as not to miss it too much, because I've been going for so long it's a strange feeling now. I just hope we get back next season or at least get some serious progress towards a new stadium, though I doubt that will happen .Totally appreciate your position but you're going to attract counter points that you’ve skirted by.
Yes, ownership carries a fair share of blame. But three weeks ago we were party to a PR statement battle (apply pinch of salt here) which uncovered alleged shithousery from the Council, along with Wasps demanding indemnity from possible penalties from any future EC ruling against the sale of the Ricoh. That in itself doesn’t excuse poor ownership (if true as documented) but it does make the move to St. Andrews not acceptable but more understandable.
I’m a firm believer of ‘each to his own’, and dislike opinions paraded as facts. We all have our own opinions and each one should be respected. The line is crossed when we attack each other for them. You didn’t attack anyone, you stated your opinion....and I respect that.
So with 3,000 season tickets, 1,000 away fans, x amount of matchday packages sold, start of season optimism.....I am not so impressed with yesterdays 6,500 now.
I would try it at St Andrews even if it’s just the once - then you can judge how you feel - go on you know you want to!!
Saturday was a great day out - we were all there to support the team and management and enjoy watching our team.
Don’t deny yourself the pleasure.
I think beyond this season attendances will drop if there is no further progress on the Ricoh/ new stadium.Yes, but attendances could drop to 2 or 3,000 in Brum. There were a lot of cash paying customers yesterday from the length of certain queues, so a lot of last minute decisions even for yesterdays gate.
It was like an away game, but less of a “them v us feeling”, more of a “a few of them v us” feeling.
By all means try it, but in my opinion, proper away games are better and we didn’t do enough yesterday to express annoyance that we weren’t in Coventry
I speak as someone who never set foot in Sixfields. It is different this time round.
Sixfields was SISU stopping paying the rental - this time round blame is far more nuanced.
St Andrews is a proper ground
Mark Robins is doing a great job and deserves our support
Fantastic atmosphere yesterday.
I didn’t here a single moan from the stands
Pitch allowed us to play a really good passing game
Play up Sky Blues
I've got my ST, couldn't make it yesterday. I just want to know what the plan to get back is. Not sure I'll get one next season if we're not told what's going on.
Just put it on here thenIf you pm me, I'll tell you. One of the stewards told me at half time.
P.S. We won 1-0
What should we have done, and who should we have aimed it at ?It was like an away game, but less of a “them v us feeling”, more of a “a few of them v us” feeling.

I think the vast majority understand the circumstances, want to support the team first and foremost, and don't want to unsettle the players. I didn't particularly enjoy the anti SISU songs during games at The Ricoh (although I concur with the sentiments) and think it will feel even more toxic at The Trillion. It is most likely to be trotted out when we are losing, which is unlikely to 'help' the team. It doesn't make a jot of practical difference in my opinion and sours the matchday experience.
I’d happily stay at brum for 2-3 years it meant finishing wasps off and getting them out of a city that hasn’t or never will accept them.
