That may well be the case where you are, however where I was there were some who were like that. I was by no means tying the whole of the west stand in with the same brush saying they tell people to shut up, just certain ones. If you looked at what I posted after my initial comment, I agreed that there were certain sections that did shout and cheer, but they are spread out and the whole west does not join in.

But its ok near you
To be fair, I shouted 'clueless ****' at the ref. I shout, swear, jump up and down, run down the front, threaten to meet Alan Pardew in the car park, everything you'd expect someone to do at a football match and I've been sat in the middle of the west for over ten years. It's bollocks that anyone in the west objects to singing, they object to you shouting 'clueless ****' when they've got a couple of kids with them, but other than it's fine.
it doesn't you put the word aggressive in your last post,anyway i'm off now its time for my cup of cocoa and songs of praise is on soon followed by countryfile
You are allowed to shout in the West Stand provided you are eating hoopla hoops and spraying them down my neck at the time, but you can only shout "forward". To be honest there are real attempts to get things going, but it doesn't last long. To be well versed in West Stand speak you must learn the following. " No Idea " Aimed at any player who hesitates and then passes back. The Ref at any time. Steve Bruce when he makes any changes. " He's a waste of a shirt" Any player who makes any mistake. "Is he that new foreign chappy" Any non white player. " Never " Any offside " Hows the wife, still in is she" Say that and twenty cloth caps will turn round and say " she should be out next week " it's the nearest you will get to a Mexican wave. I get asked " Oh you've come up for the match then" I have said " no I stayed at home" once, but that was met by a confused look and I heard him whisper to his wife (?) " he's been drinking "
This is all very interesting. I'm going over to a 4 on 4 off shift pattern, so gonna be missing way too many games to justify a season pass. So are there any sections of west stand it's acceptable to say ****, ****, ****er, for ****s sake McShane and such like?
It doesn't really matter, as you'll be buying a match day ticket and you'll only be able to sit in the North Stand.
Shame. To be honest that would be my preferred option. Just would have liked to see for myself if some of the reports on here are for real. Might be able to use my brothers pass in e7 a few times. I'll have to get it all off me chest then.
There's a fair few seats in the upper west that are on general sale for the Norwich game, you can easily get a seat up there.
