There was only 25,000 at the lane last night could of squeezed another 11,000 in there... im going to the next europa league game fack it.. the 25,000 that was in there got to see a strong team.. but from watching it on the tv the Lazio fans were outsinging the spurs fans NOT GOOD!!
This is what happens when you flirt with success at all. Fans become s and expect the world.
Lazio fans were loud of course. Typical Italian support. Fanatical. Ultras.
We were loud a couple of times but it's just no good
Maybe people have forgotten the words to the songs
Couldn't agree more ! went a few times last season, and couldn't believe how quiet we were.
Every time I am in the East Stand, there seems to be away support ( mainly league games), and everyone is afraid to join in, a few young lads behind me were setting stuck in ( v Norwich last season, worst game I have ever been to!!!), and we got a few singing, but only for a short while.
And one idiot told me that if I wanted to sing I should "fackkk off back to the park lane".

I was in park lane upper last night and it felt like we were the only stand making any noise!! does my head in! lets hope they think about seating allocation for the new stadium, would be good if they tried to seat 'types' of fans together!
"What has happened to that place?"
No problems with the atmo the thursday before.
And that was only about 9000 attendance.
Or perhaps it was just the dire unexciting football that was on offer. A 10 man Italian defensive wall, and some very well paid Spurs players incapable of finding barely more than a couple of worthwhile, exciting, ways through.
I have to say I do not go to the Lane much these days, but I went last night. I am disappointed at the standard of the squad we have at our disposal. We need a bit of tempo at the beginning of the game, a bit of extra special skill, not just 5-a-side passing ability, and I was sitting there last night wishing that we had pulled out all of the stops to get Berbatov back. An ability to score an early goal or two would stop out-and-out defensive tactics and open up games to become more exciting. Unfortunately, the Spurs squads of the last couple of years have been too easy to snuff out any slow, laborious attack. Too much playing at the back, too much passing backwards.
After I wrote an article having a go at chelseas pathetic lot then it seems we are just as bad.

So what does this make you then?
I fully agree that the Park Lane is where the atmosphere is created which is why, for the life of me, I don't understand why we give it to the away fans?! Last night they had more than half lower part lane. I know cup and Europe matches are worse than prem, but really we should be sticking the away fans elsewhere. Park Lane for Spurs only!
being a lowly paid firefighter, i have been priced out of going the past two years. I bet I am not alone. Maybe the real fan just cant afford it anymore
Hoping that the new WHL will redress that, Smeg.
N17. They were all lower and none upper for security and policing
hope so rdbd
Im going to whl for me bday though this year
and im keeping up my membership just incase one day i can afford a season ticket
Chronic. Couple of seasons ago in East upper, a guy in a suit next to me sat reading his paper whilst half-paying attention to the game
Like someone else said, it'd be better if seats (for bronze as well as season tix) could be allocated or bunched together for noisy / quieter fans.
I reckon there's a load of fans who'd make a lot more noise if wasn't for the grumpy sods sat next to them.
I'm hoping to try to get to my first game at the Lane after Christmas (as I live in Ireland I've never been) and I'd love to go to a section with a bit of atmosphere and singing, what section would you recommend I try get tickets for on general sale?
park lane...shelf...the rest...as the guys say...meh....but often...its a beggars,choosers scanario...
Grand, I'll start dropping not-so-subtle hints to the girlfriend so for Christmas
Chronic, I appreciate last night was only lower park lane, but as I said, why are they in the park lane at all? You see it in cup matches where away fans have a higher allocation, they have a massive chunk of the park lane. Can you imagine Liverpool handing over the kop to the away fans? Not on your nelly
Saw a bunch of empty seats on the TV last night. Why the hell weren't tickets released on general sale a day or so before the game?!
I cancelled my Bronze membership as it's renewal coincided with moving house so needed the dough so it's my own fault but that really p issed me off
It's simple, the more succesfull you become the fewer "big" games you have. It is easy for a crowd to be up for it when it is a "big" game, they are just harder to come by.
You realy think a new stadium will end up with a better atmosphere? Has all this time of trying to be Arsenal not taught you anything?
