Anyone from the canton interested in waving the big flags/bamners you see in the singing sections around the country?
cardiff city supporters club will purchase some if there is a will and interest from supporters for them?

Must be a sticky for a few days at least, fans always complaining about the atmosphere but it can easily be improved with co-operation

Some fans in the Canton were singing 'Take Me home to see the City/Bluebirrds' yesterday, can someone give me the full lyrics?

What happened to this new singing section in the Ninian stand. Like a library again yesterday. No wonder Nukes can sleep through a game. Thank Christ for the Canton. :ayatollah: :sladeout:

Until the club actually want an atmosphere and aren't going to instruct stewards to do everything in their power to stop one then there's no point, got told to sit down even though I was in the last row back with just the empty new stand behind me

Good point. You can't wave a flag sitting down!! Are stewards going to ease up?? It's partly their fault in the first place that the noise isn't there. The Wales game was deafening!!!

Stewards can't ease up if it's anywhere else other than the Canton Stand, the Ninian Stand tickets are quite expensive and some fans sit there for the view rather than wanting to generate an atmosphere. You can wave a flag and do whatever in the Canton Stand as it's the designated singing/atmosphere stand.

Thing is in the Ninian 116, it's shit because a. Your sat down and b. You got some old woman or kid sat infront of you who's not guna get involved. Think everyone should just get to the canton to make an atmosphere

The Canton is basically restriction free, yet people still chose to sit in the Ninian and moan when they get told off! Would be better if everyone who wants to stand and sing sits in the Canton!

Nubbsy think you could be right, it was only when I sat in my seat sorry stood by my seat :laughing6: that I realised I was probably pissing in the wind , nice people around me but an old couple some older guys who also stood btw and yeah the general feeling was this ain't gonna happen. We all know it's impossible on your own or in small numbers, canton it could be. Great view in 116 mind :thumbup:

Shit view though, if I'm paying that much money for a ticket I at least want to be able to watch the game properly. Forgot how much better the view was in the ninian until yesterday

What we need is for everyone to have a flag to help create an atmosphere as well as a few big ones. We need a lot more colour and noise. We also need to bring a friend judging by the attendance yesterday. :bluescarf:

You choose between a decent view for about £100-200 more or go for the cheaper option where the view ain't TOO bad and you get to have a bit of atmosphere

Re: IMPORTANT: Regarding atmosphere By Vince Alm

Can't believe this debate is still going on. Since the Stadium opened the club have made it clear that if you want to stand then The Canton it is.

Those who keep on about standing in 116/117 remind me of the child who stamps his/her feet and says 'I want I want'. You don't always get what you want in life.

Anyway, atmosphere would be better if all the singers were in the Canton (in my view!).
