    Is what you usually hear in Football

    Its been a year now. Do you agree with that term?

    Weve seen more teams win away lately even us managing 6 in a row

    Does the term Fans are 12th Man work then or not?

    I'd probably say that no fans has been a godsend for players such as Mads and Toby this season.

    Crowds are a 12th Man when it's going well, when it's not they can force some players to retreat and play worse.

    I know some will say that they're professional players and should just suck criticism up, but they're all still relatively young and, you know, human.

    I think we're being treated more fairly by refs, just look at the penalty count. Crowds definitely influence decisions of the officials.

    Not sure. Think fans probably get your adrenalin going, which can work both ways I suppose.
