atmosphere at goodison

[Jimboefc97]

i was thinking what everyone else thought of the atmosphere at goodison this season?

personally i believe it lacked what it has been in previous years. i sat in several stands this season and even though every one says gwladys street lower is the loudest i believe that it was the park end this season.

what do you think?

I believe that people having no money and being down about Everton in the early part of the season played a part, towards the end when we were boss it picked up.

Did somebody say singing section??

ISNT MODERN FOOTBALL BOSS?

Being down 4000 on average attendance and losing one of your best players followed by 4 months of crap football will tend to do that.

I went the stoke game in december and the atomsphere was terrible. Then went the newcastle game for the last game and it was bouncing. Its always seems better second half of the season

[Azzurri]

The Newcastle game was a brilliant atmosphere, which shows what happens when we have something to play for and show some decent football.

[Brennan]

Still think Spurs was the best. That second half when Howard saved about 36 shots and there was a real siege mentality, the final whistle was fantastic.

[Beagers]

was dead quiet for most games,prob best were spurs,chelsea,citeh and the newcastle game,it was like a morgue first half of the season!!

[toffeeben15]

The city game there was only 29,000 but felt dead loud on tele

[Cena]

Sunderland away was a beast, incredible support that night

[mzone16]

At the end if the QPR game some old bloke behind me spat his dummy out and threw his programme on the pitch. Pretty much summed up the1st half of the season for me that. If you got nothin to shout about then you aint gonna shout!

[paulbefc]

When we are good for a sustained period of time the fans show their appreciation better than anyone imo. It's a very clear two way street which I think is the best way to be. We are boss when competing well as underdogs too. Neville's tackle v United springs to mind.

[snipellis11]

The second half of the season was decent, like people have said Newcastle was brilliant, just shows that goodison bounces when we have something to play for and when we are playing good stuff and showing passion. Lower gwladys is by far the best.

I am getting a bit bored of atmosphere threads on here tbh, but everytime there is one there is snipe from you over the singing sections.

Singing Sections, ie a place in the gound where like minded fans congregate to sing, has been a part of Goodison for decades. It was the advent of reserved seating, a consequence of the increase in attendance at Goodison in the mid 90s that stopped it.

The singing sections are reaction AGAINST the modern football fan culture of sitting and only singing some standard when there's a goal or the tannoy plays Grand old Team.

It doesn't bother me if you wish to sit down and not sing, you pay your money you can do what you want, but it does bother me when you have a go at others with little digs just because they wish to get behind Everton in the manner that many thousands of Evertonians have done throughout the decades.

My family go back to before the the first world war for supporting Everton, although the oldest I have spoke to was my Grandad who went from the 20s. I can reassure you there were was singing at the match then too. 70+ years before Sky. Fans would also congregate under St Luke's previous to then to sing as well. So can you update your assertions on the concept of singing sections please?

Could you please rewrite that post with the accompanying tune at the top and maybe a youtube instrumental ?

One of those bouncing balls with the lyrics would be grand.
