    Honest opinions, my thoughts are that if we had gone behind with Fans we would have never come back to win.

    thoughts please Ladies & Gentlemen

    I just think the adrenaline you feel in front of an audience makes you play out of your skin in a way that you might not get without fans. Plenty of teams come from behind to win games with fans in the ground.

    Young squad, relative inexperience, intrepidation after our start. Pressure off with no crowd to a certain extent. But really who knows really?!? Suppose nothing can be proved......

    Young team able to learn and make mistakes without a crowd on their backs. We have some of the smaller crowds so less hostile environments.

    Good reply pal, but if you go behind and the Fans are on your back... your Teams got no chance of getting back on top. Basically they would be a goal down and playing against 13 players.

    I can imagine the groans around the ground whenever we lose possession. Wouldn’t be any good for them. Think they also get a lot of coaching from the sidelines which wouldn’t be possible with a crowd in.

    Thanks Jimmy, however we must have the most hostile crowed I have witnessed in the last 5 years.... I can understand why but it doesn’t help the Teams Spirit.

    We've got better players and a better manager since we were last allowed in.

    Thanks leythtyke, I think so far comments are the same. “You only sing when your winning” we should also be positive when we are losing and be come the extra man.

    I do you know that? We might be top or bottom of the league if we had 10,000 miserable believers in the ground.?? :)

    We didn't have Sollbauer, Helik, Frieser, James, Kane, Brittain and Styles, Adebayejo had only just broken into the squad so the bulk of the team is totally different to when we had crowds.

    I personally think it's as much about the away games as the home ones. Just feels like a more level playing field

    World beaters to a man. Apart from David Tuttle. Never had time for him. Stood around properly laughing at his own mistakes. Glad we ****** him off before Wembley..

    Oo
    Ooh, get her..?!! Leotard comes off, gloves go on..
    You are right though, mate. Which is why I never irrationally criticise a Reds player. If at all. apart from Tuttle, in retrospect. Leave the clowning in the dressing room, ****’s sake.!! Grrr..
    At least Keith Brown was proud to wear a Reds shirt..:)

    Cheers lads for your thoughts, but do you not think that we should be a extra man for the team and not go all negative when going behind. We should turn Oakwell/ Grove street into a fortress.
