    depends, every ground/international game is different.

    with tottenham obviously being the best stadium in the country in terms of atmosphere, but if you want to sit there, make no noise, sit around loads of anti english people, and not be allowed to show any english tattoos, then the emirates stadium is the place for you :yippe:

    Pfffft.

    WHL only has one chant! St. Mary's is clearly the best. With Craven Cottage a close second.

    YES! MON THE SCOTS!

    I love the atmosphere at football games. Actually *love* it. It's always amazing (but better if you're on the winning side).

    Also a good excuse to blow off steam and swear like a trooper.

    Ahh football games..... Elland Road has possibly the best atmosphere in England. C'MON LEEDS, PROMOTION THIS YEAR!!

    Brighton's Withdean Stadium is poor but the new stadium being built is going to rock. Hopefully the atmosphere will improve aswell!

    Aint been to the new Wembley yet....gonna go to the first England game there after I get back if I can though.

    Did you enjoy yourself then?

    Thought we were pretty crap overall, glad Alexander, McGregor and Ferguson got dropped though - Alexander especially was rubbish against Holland at the weekend. Fletcher, Hutton and Morrison all did well.

    Not convinced about Burley as manager though.

    3 points though, and a good bounce for the goals. Jobs a good'un :thumb:

    Fucking Win!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Have to admit i didnt think we'd win, just cos...y'know...it's Scotland. Lol. But i was wearing my cap and scarf and cheering along. I loved the crowds afterwards and stood taking photos for a bit :D
    Overall highly enjoyable!!
    ...Apart from the ex trying to hold my hand throughout :P

    Depends if you consider racially abusing central defenders to be a good atmosphere really. Spuds fans always made me laugh, ever since they got their knickers in a twist about Bosnich; singing songs about HIV is much more appropriate, obviously.

    Can't believe nobody else has pointed out that it can't be a football game if Scotland are playing :p

    It was enough to see a load of Spuds fans get nicked and prosecuted for it, which means the police think it was obscene abuse. As for what was sung, that's been reported in every newspaper in the land.

    But lets choose a delightful sample chant:
    Spuds fans wrote:
    Sol, Sol, wherever you may be / You're on the verge of lunacy / And we don't give a fuck if you're hanging from a tree / You Judas cunt with HIV."

    Although Spuds do get bonus points for rhyming tree with HIV.

    Oh dear, you lose. Not only is the insult completely wrong (I'm one of those lefty liberal Guardian types, FYI) you can't even spell it properly.
