    Reyt, keith hill is obviously sure that the booers and neg heads are effecting teams performance, yet the booers and neg heads seem to think Its his tactics/management/players qualiy etc but neither party seems willing to budge. How abart, in next home game, we gi him benefit er doubt, for 90 minutes, and sing our hearts out and get behind our team? If we can see no improvement then fair play boo to your hearts content. YOU REDS.

    Didn't that happen Tuesday? 1-0 up and the crowd were singing. Then 2 goals in 3 minutes knocked us back to square one.

    The fans never sing at oakwell, even last season. Its embarrasing. We have the worst fans in the country.

    I agree. It's generally either silence or moaning at Oakwell these days and has been for a while. With the odd exception the atmosphere is ****.

    the irony is that i enjoyed it more in old 3/4 div , you would be stood with around another 3,000 diehards , rather than the extra 6,000 moaners we have today.

    tend to agree. I think the atmosphere at Oakwell is **** and has been so since the premier season pretty much

    We should also have a big "we love Shopping at Aldi" flag

    ... Just to let Keith know we have a sense of humour.

    In fact, Aldi should jump in with a bit of sponsorship here.

    "Keith says there's plenty of quality at Aldi ...... "

    The club kills the atmosphere before the game even kicks off

    Harsh! If everyone tried to sing then the atmosphere would lift.

    However apart from a few in the Ponty, there is no effort at all to raise the atmosphere.

    No.......we need a flag which says......Fook Aldi......we want Harrods

    As for the atmosphere.........which comes first the chicken or the egg......or.......which comes first the good football or the singing

    Cos so far this season, and for the last few seasons, there aint been much to sing and dance about

    If the fans were jumping around and singing their hearts out they'd all look like they needed sectioning because after the last four years, and the start we've had this year, chuff me, it would be strange to say the least.

    It's completely understandable that people don't want to sing at Oakwell. I salute them for even going, 'cos I don't want to.

    Oakwell is rather quiet, but that said, a lot of home fans are quiet unless their team is doing particularly well.

    Away fans go to games to sing and have fun; home fans go to watch the football. Been like that since I can remember.

    Leeds, Burnley, Wednesday: all supposed to have brilliant fans, but I've been to all three grounds on a number of occasions and the atmosphere's been **** unless they're scoring/winning.

    If we were top of the league we'd have full houses and plenty of atmosphere.

    Disagree

    Ipswich are the most boring set of fans i've come across. They didn't sing anything until they were 5-1 up the first time I went to Portman Road, and even then I think it was just "Easy".

    Don't we sing the same away at times though? Most clubs home supports are nothing like the few thousand that go away. But I do admit it has got pretty bad at times in Oakwell. Why can't people sing? Personally I enjoy a good sing. They don't have to get up, just make some noise. It happens against Chelsea, Leeds, Man U, Dee dars et al.
