    Too posh to shout

    http://www.sligorovers.com/index.php...=168&Itemid=88

    here is part of it

    But all that pales in comparison to the big COULDN’T UNDERSTAND – this ‘to posh to shout’ which has descended on the Showgrounds. It’s an epidemic. It’s almost at fever pitch and the other threat we have to contend with is that we are going to lose this team very soon.

    Do the sums – the figures will add up, but the books will not balance. More supporters need to come back quickly – where have you all gone?

    On Friday night we saw a masterful display.
    Two up and cruising early on. Great headline potential – Singh On Song will be plastered across the nationals (newspapers) in the not too distant future.

    I must admit I had my doubts, but I have changed my mind. When he settles into the team he will be a major threat to opposing defenders. Not the finished article yet, but he’s getting there.

    And the way we adjusted when it was 10 against 11 augurs well for the remainder of the season. That third place finish is not out of the question yet, and you know what that might mean – European football. Maybe we could play our home game away because the level of encouragement from behind the perimeter fence is ………… SILENCE PLEASE – we’re too posh to shout.

    epedemic...i dont know about that but i dont like being outsung by 10 lads from the sea side,especially when we outclassed them on the field

    do you think if a few people sitting about the away dug-out stood up and shouted "stand up for the bit'o red" would everyone do likewise....could be worth a shot

    lets face it..the shed is dead...we wont forget the time it seemed it was so full no could move the day we won the league...not its got about 20....

    we all complain about it...id really be up for that blue stand thing that happened earlier in the season...we've seen how the team react at away games when we get behind them....maybe we need to do it at home games too......

    I saw him up in Drogheda I don't think he did any singing up there. It's very easy to criticize but if you don't take part your self your words are meaningless

    So what's the story Saturday night lads will the blue stand be in full flow singing, drums, flags etc

    what i notice, about the blue stand singing, it always seemed to lift the shed, as it felt they had competition, and thus sang more.

    therefore: more singing from every side.

    In fairness I taught the Shed done well on saturday night! the slagging in the Jinksy was great craic, Stenny gave Doyle loads of it. Its the way forward, a nice crew building up in there now.
    Do many of you go to the Shed? & would you not come over to the Jinks ave stand? we'd lift the roof together.

    What we need is a properly organised ultras group even Accrington Stanley have one

    maybe if all the people who complained about the shed being dead, came into it and sang themselves, then maybe, just maybe we'd have a super home atmosphere to strike fear into opposing teams...and anyway as the winter weather starts to take hold inevitably more people will come into the shed for shelter...

    Just a thought lads, music after every goal? Music at every oppertunity? Maybe a Red DJ?

    The effect at rugby league grounds in the UK seems to result in a lot of singing! Maybe we are embarrased with our voices and need them drowned out by a decent PA!
