Crowd Rating for Saturday?

[we_are_Superior]

6.5 for me - great start, brilliant after the goal, went quiet for long periods of the second half but drowned out the Reading fans when they chirped up and a decent end.
Not much to cheer about second half but I guess that's when the players need us most.

By our standards its was poor, 4/10.

We've got so many levels we can go up and I expect us to next time.

Not sure if hoggy was there... drumming seemed different and subdued but might just be the atmosphere.

We need something to ignite a bit of a spark at the minute.

Unfortunately Phil of Wales has made everyone depressed over the close season, so SS probably needs to drop a Buzz Bomb with a few extra special signings.

 

[BFC_53]

It was very poor, but I think there are reasons. Transfer disappointments, uninspiring opponents and being under the cosh for a lot of the second half meant it was very nervy. We'll improve, as will the team.

How many did reading bring , I’m presuming not many ?

Not sure exactly, but it looked around 7-800 ish to me. We have a core of 10k home fans and that hasn't changed really from last season, which is good to see considering the prices have increased.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Poor. Too busy focusing on Tom Ince. When they got behind the team, it was decent but only at the start and end.

 

[Off Duty Trip]

Not bad for reading that tbf not usually high away numbers maybe boosted a little being opening day

 

[Recidivist3]

Does anyone on this thread keep a record of each game’s crowd scores and performances in a notebook ?

I, for one, think it would make for very interesting reading

Plus it was still lower than I thought, probably a lot on holiday etc but still expected more. We've had a poor summer so... is what it is.

It'll improve.

On stream didn’t seem like Hoggy was there.

Whoever is doing the drumming, I appreciate filling in but... he starts way to soon after scoring, people are still cheering.

Also some of the drum beats I could do better.

 

[TangerineBayern]

Hoggy wasn’t there, I’d give the crowd 5/10. We’ve had a very unsettling summer with whats gone on and the normal buzz isn’t quite there at the moment but I’m sure we’ll be back to normal crowd standards. UTMP

 

[Simonized]

5/10

 

[rememberlesshannon]

Flat for long periods.....must do better

 

[Curryman]

Slightly off the subject, but four Reading fans got on my bus at Manchester. Due to the rail strike they had travelled from Reading to Birmingham, Brum to Manchester then Manchester to Blackpool. Either true fans of crackers. But, well done to them. They were staying overnight then going home by train.

If you think you could do any better ,go ahead .

 

[Mcewans Mullet]

Ah the late 70's music

 

[GrahamwantshisOates]

As mentioned Hoggy was on holiday ( I assume) and it’s amazing how much motivation he gives with his drumming.
The replacement drummer tried but ineffective.

 

[JJpool]

I'd have a wander over, but I feel you have to be part of the in crew to oust a drummer. However I think hoggy will be back.

 

[Graham berrys plastic bag]

Score wise the first 30 minutes was a 9.5,after that it went down to a 5.5,then second half was a 4.2 until near the end where it ramped up to a solid 7.1
It’s taken me ages to work out those stats I hope it’s appreciated

 

[Ghost_of_Max]

I think it was more the number that disappointed me rather than the noise made. If there were about 800 Reading fans then there were only 1500 fans 'turned up' on the day. Holidays will have played a part but you'd expect a few more on the day (even a few holidaymakers). Don't know if Swansea are good travellers but would hope they'd bring a few more and if we can get something at Stoke on Saturday that this might swell the numbers.

How many did reading bring , I’m presuming not many ?

 

[Middxile]

How many were there ?

 

[Pool CW]

5

 

[EagleDay]

Transport disruption cut the crowd by a lot, so a little unfair to judge.

 

[Mark_GT]

High time Simon and Ben stood up for what is right and funded tangerine clapstix for the South and West IMO

 

[Middxile]

I ask again; how many were there ?
