A match of silence? There’s been a few of those with everyone either laughing or the odd bit of winding up and swearing.

Most are behind what they’re doing, but are more mature about how to get there.

I'm actually looking at these messages and there is alot of negativity about the situation with really only half the story out. Also alot of people insinuating that the hf are babies bit are acting like children themselves by saying they will release a statement in capital letters written in crayons. I understand why people wouldn't want to move but i don't remember everyone getting a boner about Parish moving season ticket holders when he switched the away fans about or the main stand season ticket holders that will be moved about or priced out.
I'm generally positive towards hf as they've helped transform the atmosphere at selhurst, and I'm going to see what more info comes out about how the club has dealt with this before I pass real judgement upon them or Parish for tbat matter. Could be he's the one who's f***ed up here.

No, I do not think anyone is joking. We have a great set of fans when it comes to big games, but we owe the noise to the HF the rest of the time.

I remember what it was like before the HF. We were loud in comparison to most clubs, but we were not regarded as having the best home support in the country.

That depends on your view on how much the atmosphere at Selhurst adds to your enjoyment of attending matches.

The idea of moving fans to the center of the stand was with the hope that it would lead to an improvement in the atmosphere and therefore would hopefully benefit the club and us fans too.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Those were business or safety reasons, whether just to increase revenue when we earned very little and relatively that’s still the case, including increased police costs and loss of ticket sales to Millwall and Leeds etc, or to stop one Millwall chewing through tarpaulin and thousands rushing a few able and many less able to defend themselves. It wasn’t because 100 singers wanted or expected it.

Plus, and I hate to micturate onto anyone's french fries, it's a manufactured 'atmosphere'. The rest of the ground only really joins in when there's something to get excited about on the pitch. Probably because they don't know half of the 'songs' anyway. For large parts of games it's just a drum banging and a droning sound, which is a lot louder on TV because of strategically placed microphones.

I much prefer the organic way a chant or song spreads out along the terraces, increasing in volume as it goes on. It isn't necessary to drone for 90 minutes and neither is it acceptable to drown out another song or chant because it wasn't on the HFs 'playlist.

Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing!
