Oh dear Northam Stand getting an ULTRA Crowd Banner 09:22 - Jul 6 with 2821 viewsUTS1885

We don’t want this crap at St Mary’s 😐

Yes to a banner, but the ultra lettering has to go.

I’ve noticed most grounds you visit these days have something like this going on .

I don’t see anything wrong with it. I welcome anything which try’s to improve the atmosphere etc. Let’s face it St Mary’s atmosphere has been pretty dire over the years mainly because all the singers were split up all over the place hopefully this will now change.

Although I tend to agree with you and this is sad that all of these initiatives are not from fan groups themselves, who show no sign of any form of organisation but the club itself, it has to be a good thing in terms of atmosphere, love or like the Palace ultras, they turned Selhurst Park from a morgue into one of the best atmospheres in the Premier League.

Back in 1994 the Ugly Inside along with SISA campaigned for the Archers Road end to be given to Saints fans and succeeded and it changed the atmosphere which to be honest had been poor for quite a few years prior to then.

The font is problem and is used by far right nazi hooligans in Europe. Also the fact only northam stand get to vote is very wrong. If this improves you’re ’match day experience’ 🤪

Simple clean lettering with the badge etc that clubs use like Chelsea, Newcastle etc

The northam stand will be laughing stock, with sad gimps all wearing black.

The font has the odd letter in Old English!
The Northam have to display it so they should get to choose it!
You’d rather be like Chelsea or Newcastle, I’d rather us do things a little differently and be Saints!
“Laughing stock, Sad gimps wearing black” Better than anoraks, cardigans, flasks of tea and morons doing a dance to fire starter I suppose!
Embrace the change, don’t be such a pessimist!

Moaning for the sake of moaning, it’s just a banner ffs. Everyone was moaning about the pre match stuff before the semi final, turned out great and really helped the atmosphere

Nothing wrong with a banner its just the designs are woeful and would be embarrassment inside St Marys.

Those flags are f*cking awful, they look like they've been "designed" by a kid who's experience of football is playing FIFA on the computer and not someone that's ever been to games.

The club have stated the final banners may be subject to design changes.

Maybe that suggests there’s going to be more than one chosen and they’ll tweak things following feedback.

Keep it simple like other clubs with this sort of thing.

Why not do something that's actually half good?

Generally speaking in design less is more, personally i'd drop off a lot of the crap wording and go with something incredibly simplistic.

A line drawing of the cities major landmarks would be so much better than most of this stuff, or something similar to this

I like the sash background. As for the words how about, "We are Southampton, the Pride of the South".

The problem with the Sash is you'll never have a "clean" area for text so it'll always look messy, it's actually really hard to do a good design across a sash, unless you cut out part of the background to accommodate it.

Despite fans complaining directly about the designs and voting arrangement, the ULTRA banner goes ahead with Pride Of The South pirate font. Ultra group leader of ‘the 1885’ has no interest in what other fans think, it’s all about their little group.

Not much of a mystery really, it's Tara and the bloke who does captain mainwaring dress up at weekends.

Saying that i'm not sure they're responsible for this banner are they? I think it comes from the club itself, which explains why it looks like it's been designed by an intern who's only knowledge of football is playing fifa on their console

Why would you now start attacking the 1885?
It’s just a banner FFS, it’ll look great and is just one of the many new things being introduced to improve the whole match day experience, specifically in the Northam as the club stated.

If every fan had a say on these sorts of things it would just become a talking shop where very little ever got done. Im glad the club seem to be ignoring the nay sayers, nimbys and general negative pessimism.

It’s already been said, woeful designs and st Mary’s is more than just one stand and all fans should have decided. Welcome to having a differing opinion.

No one is "attacking" them, some people just think the proposed banners look sh*t, because, well they look sh*t.

I'll be honest if the club are going to do a banner i'd much rather that it was done by fans who had a link to the city and it's culture, instead of forcing some weird proto ultra thing on us.

Also the problem with organised support is that it ruins anything spontaneous and original. What you end up with is a small group dictating the songs/support and it stops being real and turns into pantomime
