They sung it twice at most and they weren’t wrong. Do the Northam sing anymore? I can see them all stood up but can’t hear a thing from the Itchen and when I’ve been sat in Kingsland I still can’t hear them. | |

That's because they're divided into 2 groups in the corners so they get drowned out by the away fans. The Club understandably wants to change this but the nimbies won't have it. [Post edited 10 Apr 9:07]

Other than gesticulating to the adjacent away fans, the Northam's job is to call the opposition keeper a "fat bastard" during goal kicks. Itchen North Rabble are songs. | | | |

Don’t diss the Northam pal. Had I not have been fumbling around trying to connect to the stadium wi-fi I would have been belting out about Pompey getting battered. You don’t appreciate the withdrawal symptoms being faced because I couldn’t see what the limbs footage was like following our first goal….. | |

Coventry fans on 09:27 - Apr 10 with 3982 views | euasabioscummer | They were good but strangely when quieter when they got their goal. Thought they would keep going to force an equaliser. Maybe our players just done their job. As far as our home fans we are not the worst. Likewise no way near the best. Just need some variety and new songs. I notice cov have a good variety. But they are from a musical city. 😬 | | | |

That is wrong, last night you had 2,500 Saints fans in the Northam behind the goal and next to them you had 2,000 Coventry fans, who had exactly the same position ie the other half of the Northam. So logically 2,500 should drown out 2,000 given they have have exactly the same position and acoustics in the stadium. The fact that the Northam is backed up by another 500-1,000 in the Kingsland corner should make that even more so. Football grounds are like pubs, it isn't the building that makes a pub it is the people in it, likewise a football ground is about the fans, the Northam End contained 2,000 Coventry fans who were loud and proud and had a big repertoire of songs and we had 2,500 who have 4 songs and need a loud away section to stimulate them to sing. We creat a wall of red in the Northam I would suggest that with no away fans to respond back to, it will make St Mary's quieter not louder | |

Yeah, they've got The Specials, The Selecter, SKA, Two-Tone, King to boast about. We've got Craig David and... erm... ... umm... | |

Coventry fans on 09:54 - Apr 10 with 3937 views | PatfromPoole | Itchen North was not good at all last night. Seemed to be something of a resigned air in there, I fear. I think most in there were expecting Cov to pull it back to 2-2, but didn’t want to help the team over the line. Doesn’t help when so many decide they have to go downstairs in the 40th and 85th minutes. [Post edited 10 Apr 10:09]

Yes I can't even see an extra 3000 fans wanting to move to the Northam, could well be a flop making the stadium quieter. I received an email about a meeting before the Watford game to update fans of the progress (didn't get picked!) | | | |

'We create a wall of red in the Northam I would suggest that with no away fans to respond back to, it will make St Mary's quieter not louder' Where are they putting the away fans then, West Quay? | | | |

Not that i want to encourage this sort of thing but if i was a coventry fan i'd absolutely bin that off and replace it with This ground, is sounding like a ghost ground (why don't you hear the home fans sing) This ground, is sounding like a ghost ground (why don't you hear the home fans sing) | | | |
