Enjoyed a decent and fluent OUFC performance last night which was a welcome sight. Ok tbh the wimble's weren't anywhere near some of the other opposition we have faced recently but the team needed that and for the punters who came they were rewarded with a 5 goal salvo.
However, a earlier poster mentioned about the home atmosphere which is quite a hot topic to answer but I'll give you my take Fwiw. Yes tbh ours could be better but I'm absolutely sure if the results again go on a real top bender then the last few matches at home this season will see the atmosphere I'm sure improve no end.
A genuine question though :- does the poster get to go away that often (and this is not a pop by any means) because other than Lincoln and to some extent Pompey away this season I have seen nothing of any great substance that stands out to my mind of any great home atmospheric support. This general apathy at matches for some reason seems to be the norm these days with the majority of home support in league 1 (obviously I can't tell you how the home support is in the championship but I'd like to hope with the bigger crowds/clubs it would be better) and I can honestly say that over the last 4/5 seasons with over a hundred away days dealt with I've never felt in any way shape or form that intimidated or in awe (in a support way) by any home support noise that has come our way and that includes our dear ol' soul's down in SE London. However this would probably change if-and it's a big if we did reach our target of getting to the championship, and by then I'll probably be fitted up with those incontinence pants lol -so I'll be ready for it...the intimidation that is.
However, I/we must be careful of what we wish for as for this coming Saturday we are away to Ipswich where I might add we may come across seeing and hearing the home support omit some type of 'championship style' atmosphere and it is then of course up to the away support and the team to start really well to suppress this threat. If we accomplish this together then the poster if the aforementioned is at Portman Road then he/she may well sample the 'hush hush' home atmosphere for themselves. It is not only a k*ssam stadium disease.
Coyy's.
