    Club lacks identity, so piggy back onto someone else's???

    The 12 year olds shouldn't be feared.
    It's not "lame" to stand next to the next generation of supporters.
    Turn up no matter the age of those around you. Not coming into the bay's because of the age of those there is bizarre. Bring some mates your own age and raise the average age if you're so worried about it. Or find some of older blokes and introduce yourself.
    Active support isn't about image or caring what others think, just get stuck in, make noise, support the team, stand and sing no matter who you're standing next to so long as they are supporting your team. Age isn't nor should it be an issue.

    Gold, green, pink, purple, red, blue, doesn't matter, the team is representing Newy.
    Turn up no matter the colour the shirt. Again, you said we lack an identity, for many people the Gold kit gave us exactly that. To say you'd not support the team because of the shirt colour..... Maybe active support isn't for you...... Maybe the jets isn't for you because we've had way bigger issues than the colour of our shirt, you're gonna need to be able to roll with the punches of disappointment in many things the club does if you're joing the jerks fan family.


    Just turn up and help make noise.

    And while I agree the hill will be better, it's not from being on TV.
    It's from being surrounded by GA.

    Welcome. Be prepared to finish 7th

    The new 15/16 kits have been revealed for example, and on this forum I see ideas for a supporters scarf with the emerald/cinnamon. I just dont see the point of having a scarf that isnt remotely like the clubs colours (i get the whole history argument but c'mon..

    Last point, I want to join the squadron but I dont want to be watching football with about 200 12 year old's around me.
    fair points imo

    squadronz old boys are over to the right

    Good numbers and participation tonight

    Need people to keep the enthusiasm up for the entire game, and for more than 2 reps of a chant.
    Will also help when new batteries are purchased for the mega

    Sorry I couldn't make it guys and girls. Was absolutely shattered after moving house through the day.

    Bring on Friday night!

    Hi Guy's Hope you don't mind my comments but but I've never been good at keeping to myself if I thought they might help.

    I sit in Bay 54 and originally supported the Squadrons move to bay 60 agreeing that being in the western stand might help engage more support, but have since changed my mind especially after doing a bit of a vox pop of friends and strangers (about 20 random people).

    I don't think we are getting the full force of the Squadrons chants. We could hear the cave last night and tbh they sounded pretty good. The Squadron may have been just as impressive but the noise would have been going away from us not towards.

    You may be all over this but anyway these are the thoughts of myself and a few others.

    Cheers

    Is it a volume thing? Or people just don't want to join in? Or both?

    that is correct

    this could change if you guys join in from the adjacent stands or a group starts from the eastern side. the options are always open

    you and friends are most welcome to come down to bay 60 as well

  14. #1114
    Thanks for the invite and I might take you up on the offer, but I know a lot go the people I sit with are a similar age to me e.g. well over 50 or are young families.

    Me and my mates do try to get the others to join in but in real terms we are lonely voices in the crowd and from bay 54 the Squadron are a noise in the background.

    I'll be there next Friday trying to rev em up. Cheers

    Keep up your effort, although a lot of people may not join in they do appreciate what you guys do.

    Yes thanks. I've had that nickname for a long time, so I would be happy to have back on the forum.

    Wasn't there Sat but that is my usual locale. Don't think the other boys post here (or if they do I don't know their usernames)
