Back to the days of the covered end?

From 0 mins till their goal (then an understandable pause) and from 45min onward it reminded me of the old days.

Great atmosphere!

Was this because of the battling from the team or were we the reason for so much passion from the team?

Its so unusual for a Chelsea away contingent to get sung silent but we managed it today. I noticed on a few occasions that their "boys" tried to start a few songs going only to sit back down again pretty quickly cos they realised it was a waste of time! Even overheard some grudging respect mentioned on the platform & train back to Greenwich from the non plastic Chelsea fans.

Well done all! More of the same will see us through the season!

Can f'ing wait till the 24th!!!

    I was in the lower north for a change today and am a little hoarse
    No not a pony!

    I was thinking wow is it always like this in here?!

    The sun was a bastard though for the start of both halves.

    The singing and the crowd noise came over on the radio - and kept going to the final whistle.

    This is yet more reasons to be pleased with Pards.

    I can take or leave the CAFC chant normally but the way we kept it going with a Valley Floyd Road in the middle and then off again was impressive.

    That drummer must have arms like Schwarzniger (?spelling) after that!

    that version of VFR in the middle of the CAFC gave me goosebumps. Brilliant atmosphere and i truly believe it inspired the players to that battling second half performance.

    Hey DJ -I echo your comment re the East stand today. Fantastic effort, great noise. Proves that we can do it. Great effort from the team and unlucky not to get summat out of the game...just sitting down to a nice fresh turkey for lunch - fell off the back of a lorry - should be OK though...Bootiful...

    Would be great if we could get every like minded person to be in a knot. That way the singing would be from a larger and louder group of people and far more likely to spread to those who might not want to start a song.
