The atmosphere


It's a pity only desperate situations inspires this.
Agreed.

the 12th man has played an integral part in the success of our great club. I'm old enough to remember the Gwladys street sucking the ball across the line on many an occasion. To this day, only four clubs have won the league as many times as we have. City caught up with us the other year.
 

Fans will not embrace a corporate-sponsored name. Most fans will simply refer to going to the ground as 'going to Bramley Moore Dock' or 'The Bramley Moore', IMO.
Most people will probably just saying 'going the game' or 'going the ground', same as they do now. The use of the sponsorship name is nothing to do with not embracing it being corporate, it's just not very catchy. Everyone calls the emirates, etihad, amex etc by their corporate names, the only reason people won't use Hill Dickinson as much is because it sounds clunky.

Dick at the dock though...
 

One thing that needs to be got rid of is blasting music before games and reading team sheets when players are already out. While it ended well club effed up derby atmosphere blasting "we built this city". They got it right for derby game in 2019 with sirens and playing forever Everton just before kick off. But I don't think atmosphere at GP can be matched, simply because you could have Upper Gwladys and Bullens Road joining in plus Park End. Plus at GP you always knew GT3, GT4 and GT5 started chants, what blocks gonna start chants at BM.

That's my concern too. You'll still get the chants the whole ground sing along with but my favourite was at the back of the Gwladys Street when there'll just be that area singing, relentless, song after song and all the less obvious chants got sung.

I can't see that area at the front being suitable for that, you're in the open for the whole ground to see, no near roof to help reverberate that new song that only half a dozen know.

I know it's a small percentage who like to be involved in that, probably less than 1% of the crowd but I think it's needed when things aren't going well on the pitch
