    Try being at almost any other club and see what the atmosphere is like with our results over the last 2-3 years.

    Everton fans were literally chasing their players down the road just for being in a relegation battle, not that I condone that.

    If anything I think the players here appear too coddled.

    It's a hell of a lot louder down there now. Definitely noticeable during games.

    Yeah I am in the Itchen about midway between the halfway line and edge of the box (incidentally perfect for off-sides) on the Chapel side and it is definitely noticeable. Good I say.

    Good luck to them. The Chapel has been crap since the stadium opened.

    Massively so I would say, very vocal. Make a lot of noise for what appears to be a fairly small number.

    They are even trying to get Woolston Ferry going.

    I have sat in the chapel just the once - my first ever game as a kid. My main memory of that game was looking over at the Northam and think "that looks way more fun!" My Dad never got us tickets there after that.

    Would be great if it had even a half decent atmosphere rather than complete silence.

    That’s not right
    All grounds have noisier and quieter stands
    The Chapel is different to the Northam in many ways and some are good
    We sing, but we’re not amongst a lot of singers so you can’t hear all round the ground
    We’re very happy where we are, amongst people who have become friends and who aren’t as loud but also aren’t snowflakes when stuff goes wrong

    Yes you can, banging the back wall and singing
    Sounds like it’s coming from the Chapel corner, near the Itchen

    I've got no issue with people who don't want to sing. It's just a shame that it's behind the goal imo, because this should be a more vocal place.

    That is exactly where it is,and so long as people are happy to continually hear "we hate pompey" and other moronic anti Pompey songs then I guess the atmosphere is better there for them.
