    I hope some of the personal issues between certain individuals are resolved.
    As i feel personally responsible swaying a few peoples minds at the glory game in January from squadron to ncl ill happily shout a beer furns and bodi next time i see yas as i know youve done alot for the squadron over the years.

    But yeah the control of the cage was always gonna be a problem. The seats were always gonna be a risk too. The height of the bay i was never too keen on either so was only really happy with southern end as a place when numbers were too small.

    I hope we can get some tifo down the track but make it coast or sydney away end of season.

    Hate to break it to ya SD, but you're not that good a salesman.

    Unless you're calling those that "followed you" sheep? Surely they have the capacity to make their own decisions.

    Don't worry about the beers, just get this pool thing happening once and for all, please

    So could someone please explain to an outsider what has caused all this? And where is it headed

    Is it the FFA active rules? If this new group grows in Bay 1 next season and nobody goes to the designated area I can see the club and the FFA doing something about it (what I dunno).

    Is it because of a bit of friction between individuals - if so grow a set, sit down in the pub and mediate. Club comes first.

    Is it a genuine thought to have multiple actives? TBH I don't think we are big enough for that yet.

    And a final question - why is active support so much better at a Gypos away game than it is at the home version? What can you replicate?

    I'm not a part of active support. My perception on this is that the fans are condensed into 2 bays at the gypos, instead of spread across a stadium. Perhaps it can be assumed the more passionate fan travels as well - so perhaps through peer pressure of the greater number cheering and chanting feel the need to join in. At home games, I'm one of only a handful who sing NTUA where I sit. All of a sudden we are surrounded by more like-minded folk because we are corralled into a bay and the noise amplifies.
