    Atmosphere at the 'Cross

    I'm in two minds at the moment is it good, or is it bad?

    The little waahs up the back sing that bloody Shels Whoooo ooo oh and City 'til I Die in the first half Whats this madness about, thank christ 451 brought back some colour and noise, n=but it looks like we need a co-ordinated singin' system swung into action for the Bohs and Drogs matches, Bohs match will be HUGE
    j'accuse!

    While the woo oohoo thing is well annoying alright and ctid should never be sung in the 1st half...at least the young fellas were trying. The atmosphere wasnt too bad the other night..again tho, it only really got going in the 2nd half, it seems that some people wont sing unless we are 2-0 at least. Its the usual heads as usual making an effort. People need to learn that you can get behind the team no matter what the score is. Overall tho the atmosphere has definitely improved overall this year with more people definitely lending their voices to the cause. Hopefully the improvement will continue....

    I've been in the Shed a few times this year and I think the atmosphere has been excellent.

    The singing has been coordinated and kept going for most of the games.

    Definitely better than a couple of years ago especially with the big flags as well.

    Well done to all concerned.

    .................................................. .

    "Sit down for the Cork City" should never be used again ... not the way it is now anyway .... 20 mins in and it was used. It should only be at the end of classic football, unstoppable city performances .... not every two minutes, it is going to destroy it.

    The Longford fans got it going on Sunday, Cup final ... fair play.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Yeah, After their (Waherrrrrrfuurrrrr) goal, the Section O'ers got "stand up for the Longford Town" going but all the daytripers started to sit down so they turned it into "sit down for the Longford Town"

    Totally agree A face. the sit down bit etc should only be used near the end of great performances etc... else it loses its edge which it has done already.

    I thought they were quiet enough myself, though Flansdowne () is very open the sound travels I guess.

    The Derrynane is right on top of the play and all you can hear is the handful of corner boys and the odd squel from the evening echo créche. Those fans should be the most vocal and intimdate the opposition.

    Also whenever one of the songs was played into the microphone there was a chorus of groans from the nobodys up the back of the shed , we may want their money for CCFC but they're wreckin' my head these days!
    j'accuse!

    I got to the Pats game late and I was stuck next to them and although they were annoying, they did create a good atmosphere, except for one fool who kept shouting Dolan is fat!
