Isle Of Bute Saint Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 On Wed Feb 22 2017 at 3:41 PM, oaksoft said: It is incredible that they are now using it to sort out the "true believers", who seem to care more about what it looks like on TV, from the rest of us who are just happy to be in a Cup final in the first place. This should have been done through the likes of SMISA with a vote from the fans about whether to have this. It would have been IMO the bare minimum of decency and respect. Had I been on the losing side of that vote then I would have been more accepting of it. Instead we have so-called "superfans" holding the rest of us to ransom regarding where we sit and talking us down as somehow less supportive of the team.

Miss Saint Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 My tuppence worth on all this, not just this thread but the many times over the years organised singing, displays and drums etc have been discussed.Fitba is changing ....Some folks want displays and singing sections etc....I'm old school in go to the Fitba if I want to sing I sing. Some folk song no matter what ( and let's not kid ourselves alcohol plays a part when ye have a group of guys singing when we down and out). Which ever way you support the team is your way and right for you. ...none of us are any better than each other it isn't a competition. In the past folk, like myself, who aren't interested in displays and organised singing have been labelled old, moany, boring etc. Wrong! Everyone of us there yesterday or be sat there on Wednesday night are there supporting our team, we have got up off our arsed and put money in the club and sat there watching. Just cos we don't agree on how to support doesn't mean we should bloody argue about it. When the team comes out at the final I want to stand, shout come on saints and clap like feck, if folk want to hold up a flag or whatever go for it! I do NOT want my view restricted by a big flag....who would? Big flags for display and not bothering anyone smashing go for it.NOW for the controversy. ....I don't post on here much anymore but I am sure some will remember my views on drums from years back....I HATE the feckers at Fitba. ..ibrox. ..thumping head every time just shut up and sing! I've always said if there was a drum at love street I'd give up my season ticket.....yesterday. ....I have to admit I didn't hate them....I'm not saying I loved them and a col of times I did think not again....but when the singing is as loud also the drum ain't that bad. I deliberately stood to side of goal in middle of terracing cos I knew the boys would go up the back centre....I couldn't have been too close it would have done my nut in. If they sat a couple of rows in front of me at love street (aye I know it's not love street ) I'd probably end up stealing their wee drumsticks! I have therefore come to the conclusion that I aye just a bigot cos I didn't like the ibrox drum! We are all there to support the saints....appreciate that we all different personalities, different way of doing things and all want the same thing. ..For saints to win so accept that and do your thing your way and just respect out individual choices. But I swear if ye ever sit next to me with the drum....well aye I might not listen to my own advice [emoji4] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drums were great at Ayr. It was an old fashioned ground with terracing and standing up. We could all bounce about and sing away to our hearts content. It was just like the old days. If you were stuck in a seat with some drummer boy banging away in the seat next to you I could see it being a problem but at Ayr both the drums added to the atmosphere. Hats off to the Drum section of the NB Aggro. I also thought you did a sterling Job. COYS.

Doakes Posted March 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Update: 13/03/17 I've been deliberately quiet on this during the priority sale for season ticket holders. As mentioned previously, it's only fair that ST holders got their choice first. General sale opens tomorrow at 10am, so we're now good to go with our section. With huge thanks to Campbell Kennedy, we've secured seats together for those up for a party - ideally located behind the goals (slightly to the right) If you would like to join us - just ask the ticket office to sit in the "active" or "singing" section, (they'll know what you're on about) - and they'll give you a ticket in our part of the ground. We have space for over 200 buddies. As for the flag display, Motherwell have kindly agreed to let us in early to set up. Also confirmed that our flags fall within stadium guidelines. If you can volunteer some time pre match to help set up - drop me a PM. I shall repay you in beer. This display does require mass participation. If you find a flag on your seat, wave it like hell as the teams come out. Keeping schtum on the specifics, but we think it'll show our club in a good light! Any questions, feel free to ask (or PM) COYS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
