Please can all the singers come back to the halfway line. We couldnt hear you at all when you moved to the end. I think all the noise you made must have drifted straight out of the ground. At least when you were surrounded by people the noise was more contained and reached the family stand, who sometimes joined in too.Plus the players still look to the halfway line as the main area where the supporters create the atmosphere.

Yeah i have always noticed that when they clap at the end, they still go stright to the middle when we were all down the bottom.
Im a fan of the middle but if everyone goes down the bottom then i will follow suit.

Down the end is best, more songs more, banter and more fun. Can't wait for the banter with the likes of Argyle and Rovers.

I agree.
From the middle it pans out either side and it's in unison (cheap plug for the Union of the same sounding acronym).
Unite (another cheap plug,

) the singers. Sing from the middle and let it pan out to include the family stand.
UNITE IN UNISON ! Ready ?

I prefer the singing contingent to stand of the half-way line too, all things considered. The temptation just seems too great for some of the kids to get abusive when they are in close proximity to the Away fans. Stick to the middle and sing. Forget the swearing competitions with the visitors.

People are saying that you can't hear the singers from the middle from down the end, but it's exactly the same the other way round. I've stood down the end a few times when the singers were in the middle and all you can hear is a drum beat. You can hear it loud and clear from the away end etc, but noise doesn't travel along the pop.
