A lot of fans will hate this proposal but I am utterly convinced that we need to make the Chapel end our main singing stand next season. I hope the club will rethink before announcing season tickets etc- I think there is a stronger case now than ever before to create our own Kop like end. The Northam and Itchen corner now serve no benefit to the team. Fans moan about the other stands and lack of atmosphere but let’s be honest that is not going to change/ for a number of reasons (demographics & average age of fan being one of them) I also appreciate many fans detest the idea of a choreographed end with flags and people bouncing up and down in some euro style frenzy- but times have changed. St Mary’s is becoming increasingly depressing for our supporters- I personally don’t agree it’s because the team have been poor at home- we had better support in the championship the season we were relegated. Sitting next to the away fans now is becoming embarrassing and quite honestly most away followings out sing us. Neutrals watching us on TV could be forgiven for not even realising there were fans who sing in the Northam. How much better would it look if we had a vociferous Chapel End- (what a great name for a home end!)Villa fans create a lot of noise from the Holte end as do palace and Liverpool- the other advantage is the noise from the Chapel would transmit across to the team and would be heard loud and clear by the away fans. Austin made some valid points- I really hope the club take a look at this and do something pro active for a change. From the supporters side there also has to be the will to make a change- what have we got to lose?

On a similar note i think it'd be class for the club to play this on the anniversary of the titanic when it comes round, the line "we remember, we don't celebrate" sums up Southampton perfectly.
Unlike the Skates we don't tell tall tales, we do things with class instead.

F**k knows why we don't sing the Bells of St Mary's - its written about the church where our club was formed. The Chapel Kop stands in its shadow for f**k sake.
United, Liverpool, Everton, West Ham, Spurs, Celtic, Rangers etc would be all over that.

serious question , I dont know about the acoustics but I have heard some clubs play piped applause/singing ? maybe we need to start thinking along the dark arts route !

They did it at Fratton Park when we played there this season but it didn't seem to help them.
