Why would the skates game be a bubble? They've pretty much done away with those altogether now haven't they? |

I think you're missing the point old boy, so I'll help out. Results have nothing to do with where the fans are in the stadium, but everything to do with how good the players, manager and owners are.
That always was my argument...you used to argue different. It now seems you're agreeing with me...without actually admitting it to yourself. |

You used to care.
The Northam should be home fans only, you said
The atmosphere would be better, you said
Having away fans behind the goal was costing us points, you said.
Finally the changes you've craved for years have happened and we've won one at home all season. I was looking forward to all the extra points we were supposed to gain, but it now seems to be down to the owners, the manager and our players not being good enough. Who'd have thought! |

So the position of the away fans doesn’t have an impact on our results after all?
Glad we got there in the end  |

..but the away fans are in a corner now so will no longer have an impact on the game. Our home kop, aka the Northam Wall, will roar us onto victory, like it has done er just once already this season  |

More and more of our fans moan about the hardships of being a Saints fan, but I'd absolutely hate to support a club like Liverpool. Yes they win things, but at what cost? I know we've got a lot of bellends that support us, but if you're a proper match-going fan from Liverpool having to put up with that nonsense all the time, the frustrations must be off the scale.
I've seen Solent Toffee say how the town centre turns into Disneyland for the weekend when Liverpool play at home and I totally get it. The amount of Irish/Scandinavian/Chinese I saw spilling out of hotels and waiting for taxis etcs, all decked out in full merch was quite something.
Obviously Man Utd have always been the original glory hunter club, but City and practically all the London clubs have a growing problem with their clubs pandering to tourist fans, which just adds to the proper shit show the Premier League has become. I don't get why people are so obsessed with us being in it. |

1. Trains up were hideous. The Cross Country to Brum was bad enough with it’s usual 5 carriages, but the the West Midlands service to Liverpool only had 4 (with one working toilet) and was as packed as I’ve ever been on once it hit Stafford and half the kop got on. Much better and more relaxing going home.
2. Headed down to the waterfront pre-match for a change and had a lovely couple of hours sat outside in the sunshine at a pub in the Albert Dock.
3. Plenty of public transport to and from ground which was easy and well run.
4. The away end was by far the worst I’ve ever been in. Hardly any faces I recognised, no attempt to sing anything and multiple people filming “Trent” taking corners and the Salah penalties. There were clearly lots of people in our end not there to support Southampton.
5. Best atmosphere from Liverpool fans I’ve witnessed at Anfield as usually very flat. |

Anfield is a real oddity for me and my first visit must have been less than 10 years ago….we drew 0-0. For some reason it always fell on a day I had other commitments. I even managed to miss the Shane Long semi as was flying to New York the same day for my 40th ffs.
I know I’m in the minority here, but I always struggle with an away day in Liverpool. It’s not the easiest/cheapest of places to get to by train, so many of my visits have involved driving, which has meant I rarely venture into the centre. Going all in tomorrow though as I will for Everton in May. |

I’ve swerved going to Anfield for a good 4 or 5 seasons, but am bizarrely going this time. Think this’ll only be my 3rd visit there, although I reckon I’ve done Everton close to 10.
Still never seen us win at either though and probably only witnessed 3 draws in total from that lot. |

You're wasting your time. Unless you foam at the mouth when Trump, Putin, Farage, the Tories etc are mentioned, you're scum to these lefty loons.
The irony is that they preach about being kind, that they're good decent people fighting for the greater good, yet they spill more bile and hatred than anyone if you just so happen to have a different opinion. |

I agree re Dibling. He's just a nipper, with bags of talent but has that typical teenager "can't be arsed" look about him. He's obviously a shy kid with underdeveloped social skills, but so what ffs? People need to see beyond that and appreciate him for the talent he clearly is.
Btw, I guarantee the people slating him now will be the ones moaning the most and citing our lack of ambition when he signs for someone else and his career and value rockets. |

Not sure how you cannot lay some of the blame on the players. They're professionals ffs and should have more fight and pride in their jobs. A league 1 side wouldn't get turned over like we've been this season.
Of course Brighton have better players than we do, but the manner of that defeat was not so much to do with ability or being played out of position....it was down to attitude. We fvcking stink and those players are the only ones that can directly put that right. |

I guess it depends where you are in the ground. If you're in the Itchen or Kingsland North, surely it's inevitable it'll sound louder than last season. I'm also sure over time the noise levels will improve when the various sections learn to sing in unison.
However, from a personal point of view, I'll hold my hands up and say I made a massive mistake moving there from the Kingsland North. The Northam is full of gimps...not everyone of course, but a significant percentage. I don't want to sit in silence through games; I like to get involved and help create an atmosphere, but I honestly find it torture being surrounded by that type of fan. I could let the Allez Allez Allez song slide if it was sung once or twice, but it must get a run out 10-15 times a game. The "massive cock" ditty is horrific, then you've got bellends still signing about battering Pompey 4-0 at home. I can accept I'm a miserable old bastard now and that times change, but there's very few songs someone "normal" can or would want to join in with.
The club conned many of us into moving there this season by announcing significant price increases in all other parts of the ground, but not releasing what they'd be until the Northam had nearly completely sold out. There was also the threat that any form of standing in other parts of the ground would not be tolerated. Their plan worked, but there's no way I'm doing another season in there. |

I'm confused. You used to say having the away fans in the Northam hindered the home support and enhanced the away side's chances of winning.
Now it's become clear to pretty much everyone it's had a detrimental effect and we get beaten every week, you seem to be saying the team need to perform in the first place for the fans to create an atmosphere. What happened to the extra 10-15 points a season a dedicated home end would bring us? We could do with a few of those... |
