How can we help get back the Anfield atmosphere?

[ZonkoVille77]

How does the atmosphere at united now compare with when they last won the title?

 

Their fans left last night at 80 mins on the button.

i dont know that you can force it, as the football improves so will the atmosphere, if the city game had been played at anfield the place would have been rocking.

I blame the internet. Concentration spans have deteriorated since it went public.

Until they scored just before half time, after which the atmosphere would have been flat and edgy and we would've probably gone on to draw the game.

Since what went public?

What were we even talking about, maaaan.

Another belting anfield atmosphere tonight....it's gone and it isn't coming back

1) stop selling Kop tickets to chinese/japanese/overseas/touristease/ types, and only allow those of an L postcode the option to buy.

 

2) stop letting blonde bimbo types who think that by going the game will get them on im not a celebrity, into the ground.

 

3) stop that bloke who has every badge to every game he has ever been to, from asking people if they want a photo with him. He asked my mrs that question, and was quite hurt when she told him to fuck off :)

 

4) start fucking winning in style again ( its actually starting to happen btw)

 

and 5) if you get a ticket to the game, make the fucking most of it, and sing as loud and as often as you can to every song we sing. and dont leave early no matter what the result.

[Adebisi]

Why don't we pipe in chants like they do in wrestling?

5 is the answer.

 

If you're there, be there. If not, be elsewhere.

Is Liverpool FC's relationship with supporters flagging?

[an tha]

Fucking ridiculous that the flying of flags and banners are an issue at the match.

 

A real case of the shiteness of modern footy.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Where does this leave Green Jesus?

 

Still kicking his heels, waiting to make his debut.

This has been getting worse and worse. I thought Klopp coming in would inspire people to sing and create more noise, but this hasn't happened. I didn't think it would effect us, but it fucking has to the point where Anfield is just dead most of the time.

 

The YNWA that was sung before the Palace game was one of the worst I've ever heard supporting LFC. The camera panned round the stadium and not many were singing it. I just couldn't fathom this.

 

Yes, it's just not us as it's libraries all across the country. White Hart Lane was dead when we played there for Klopp's first game.

 

How do we sort this? Not sure if can be to be honest.

 

My first solution would be throwing out any fans not singing YNWA before the start of a game to get the ball rolling.

 

Fuck off plastic fans.

There's loads of atmosphere at the tennis.

Makes you come across as a bit of a quim. Not all time-served match going fans want to sing. Doesn't make them plastic.

[jimmycase]

Atmos at Anfield was dieing out from the mid 80's onwards. Its not new.

 

How long is it since each of the main players had their own chant before kick off? Its so long ago I cant remember when it last happened.

 

There was more chanting in the Serie A game between those two massive teams torino and bologna than you get at a big game at Anfield nowadays.

Too many knobs on their phones. Smartphones and iPads should be burned in a big pile outside the stadium beforehand. Thrown some jester hats for kindling and along with anyone who sings "Ooo are ye?", get that real communal Wicker Man vibe going.

I regularly tweet/instagram pictures each game. Yet I sing as loud as anyone. I am in my late forties. An ST holder. And an OOTer (plazzy). 

Forget about putting people into brackets. Forget blaming a particular demographic. JUST sing.

Don't doubt your passion. But come on, the type of people that record a corner on their iPad are very rarely the types that are going to get a good atmosphere going. There's more people recording YNWA these days than actually singing it.

[Russ Atmosphere]

At the tennis there's a big age range, really shit clobber, jester hats, smartphones, hoorahs, terrible songs. The atmosphere is fantastic.

That's because everyone is pissed. We should introduce a 4 pint minimum limit for entry into the ground. 3 pints for kids.

Some Northern Irish fella on the Kop was berating people leaving early today. He thought he was being dead clever until someone else threatened to knock him out, he wouldn't even look the bloke in the eye as he was being threatened. Irony being that moments earlier he thought he was being a double hard bastard chewing people out.

 

All very unedifying.

[Barrington Womble]

The atmosphere was fucking awful again yesterday. Could here the players on the pitch more than I could hear the fans off it. The football is not helping and neither is all this flag shit with the club, but it's like 40k people who'd sooner be elsewhere.

Yesterday was a real watershed for me, too. From the back of the main stand I could even hear the ref shouting "Arms! Arms!" warning people about pushing. 

 

Here's a story setting an example of how bad it is. 

The seat next to me gets sold for every game to members. A couple of weeks ago I was talking to the occupier during the game. He was from within 10 miles of Anfield. I can't remember where. Anyway I said "Who have you come with?"

He replied "My lad". I looked for the lad. "where is he?" I asked.

"Over there." and he casually pointed about 20 rows away where in the distant melee of fans some one was waving to him, trying to be seen.

 

Now its obvious. You can't even go the match with your lad...never mind a group of mates.

The club has to act to help remedy this dire situation.
