So I am told I have a low intellect, mental problems and learning difficulties,by the geniuses of the HF lobby. I envy them,they are such masters of sensible,grown up debate.

Atmosphere was far, far better with the HF back at the Burnley game. The drummer could actually drum, songs were being sung all at the same time, rather than there being a weird echo, a bigger selection of songs... as loud as the crowd were against Spurs, 20 minutes of "Roy Hodgson's Red n Blue Army" got boring and just like background noise. I'm massively in favour of the singing section - feel sorry for those who are affected but for the greater good of the club, atmosphere and players (who definitely notice the atmosphere) it's going to be great. When the players were on the pitch they acknowledged the crowd and the increased atmosphere, and I understand some of them have been posting on social media complementing the atmosphere improvement. If anyone's opinion counts, theirs should.

Originally posted by Goal Machine BRM is not effected by the seat situation, just feels strongly about fans being moved. However, as proved throughout the thread, and unlike other anti HF/singing section, he hasn't the intellect to discuss the topic, he just bangs on with the same line on repeat. Although I'm guilty of it, best to not rise to his bait. His posts are infuriating. A suitable compensation package from the club to those effected would put an end to this and we can then move on. Is the crucial point here. Apart from the HF having a hissy fit(which did mean that they achieved their goal - which leaves a bad taste in the mouth), this whole situation is not really their fault. They wanted to move/expand as a group, so they went to the club to propose a solution. The Club have played this badly from the start. From blankly saying No to the HF, to them then bending over and lowering their pants after being hit by the HF's Toys, to then offering the affected fans a derisory and short-termist compensation package.. All the while seemingly not able/bothered to talk to the fanbase. "It was a Team effort, I guess it took all players working together to lose this one"

Many Premiership footballers employ someone to handle their social media posting for them including our own Christian Benteke who famously dropped a clanger when posting that he had just signed for Burnley instead of us

All the while seemingly not able/bothered to talk to the fanbase. Absolutely right. If the club had engaged wider fan opinion before committing to any decision (in which case I strongly suspect that the majority fans would have reported back that the HF are source of pride for the club & should be nurtured as much as possible (although not at all costs)). They could then have made it known that those disaffected by the decision would be well compensated (free ST elsewhere next season perhaps) all of this could have been avoided.

You misuse the word effected instead of affected twice in the same post and then cast aspersions on someone else’s intellect? Nice one.
