Gota say this noise coming from blocks a/b/c is fantastic keep it up guys. I was sat next to red doc on Saturday in A block as a mate of mine took his lad for his first game.we jiggled our Sts around to accomadate. He said the noise in here has gone up some decibels.
I haven't been to AG since our 6-0 win over Bolton last season but I would have expected the acoustics to have been taken into account with the design of the new stand. When I have been to other grounds I have been taken aback by the noise from the opposition fans yet AG has seemed (since the loss of the East End where I used to stand in the 1980s) quiet by comparison - until we score of course.
Acoustics were not a consideration. Corporate facilities, family sections and sight lines were priorities. It would take a bold and audacious club to put acoustics on to an architects remit as being a fundamental necessity.
Know people like to big their club up but I'm in the Dolman and the atmosphere is bloody awful. As for that crap thing christ it will be the Mexican wave next.
Hordur likes it,that is good enough for me,if it makes him feel welcome and settles him in fantastic.
'the Dolman and the atmosphere is bloody awful' I'm in Block E and maybe I'm old but I love the atmosphere in the Dolman. As for 'embarrassing' - that bounce around the ground chant does my head in.
Sorry, but the Stand up if you hate the gas chant irritates me, when people then stand up, some reluctantly whilst I am trying to watch the game-
