SeeBass Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 Why`s there no decent match footage on You Tube of our FC Copenhagen beating or what an amazing atmosphere it was that night? Want to show my brother who I`ve not seen for 22 years that we can rival Manchester United for the most passionate supporters tag. Meet him in about ten days if anyone can help me. Quote

You can buy a DVD of it from the club shop. http://www.justsport-group.com/shop.afc.com/acatalog/books.html Quote

You will fail SeeBass, we are the most dull supporters on earth. Quote
SeeBass Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Posted January 17, 2010 El Padre, you really think so? I believe when the team`s back is right against the wall we do tend to show up in our numbers and make a lot of noise no? Dave is that the double DVD with "Ten Years Of The SPL" on it? Because if so I alreadly have it and don`t agree that it captures what a fab experience it was. Quote
Penfold Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 The BBC highlights are on youtube. What exactly are you looking for if it's not the match footage? Quote

SeeBass Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Posted January 17, 2010 Penfold, I just want to highlight what an outer body sensation it was for me in terms of ambience! Quote
RDU_64 Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 The atmosphere at Pittodrie is quite frankly embarrasing at times. Quote
Reekie_Red Posted January 18, 2010 Report Posted January 18, 2010 True, but on those odd occasions when The Old Lady rocks, there's few stadiums quite like it! Quote
El Padre™ Posted January 18, 2010 Report Posted January 18, 2010 True, but on those odd occasions when The Old Lady rocks, there's few stadiums quite like it! there's thousands like it! Quote
Tyrant Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 Our support maybe be dull as fuck at home but no more so than other clubs. Dundee Utd, St Mirren and Hibs are all just as dull. However Man Utd fand and passionate in the same sentence? Don't get Roy Keane started! Quote
Guest rocket debris Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 Old Trafford was hugely disappointing for atmosphere the last time I was there. 67,000 of nothingness. Quote
bilbobaggins Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 I've been to Highbury and The Emirates and it's like going to the cinema. The only ray of light was the away Man City fans one of those days (the day of the Henry / Pires penalty). They always seem to really support their team. Not sure about at Eastlands though. Quote
Guest rocket debris Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 Highbury was ace but the Emirates was a morgue and that was a Champions League game against Liverpool. Fantastic amphitheatre but no atmosphere. The £6,000 price of the season tickets in the Platinum Club where we were and the price of EPL tickets generally restricts accessibility for many and if ever there was an example where business has taken over traditional fitba, that was it for me. At least OT was £32 a ticket three years ago. Quote
bilbobaggins Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 My friend was a season ticket holder for 20 years but his family had to resort to going thirds on one for the Emirates. One old guy had been going for around 40 years and they priced him out of going. Quite sad really. Quote

Went to Everton - Man City last year and the City support was decent, Everton barely sang a song. Quote
Kowalski Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 White Hart Lane is good, lots of noise from the home support. Boleyn Ground is another good one for atmosphere. Quote

Guest rocket debris Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 The Highbury Library? Terrible atmosphere. Infact the best atmosphere I ever saw there was when they had the painted supporters with fake sound piped in. My first visit was 1974 or 1975 and it was v. Spurs. Place was bouncing. 1-1. Second visit we saw Charlie Nicholas and was amazed to get served beer at the back of the North bank. Thought the gunners had a rep for generating good noise. I loved it the twice only. Quote
tsr Posted January 20, 2010 Report Posted January 20, 2010 From what i've read / heard 70's and 80's Highbury had a great atmosphere and like most grounds reduced with all seated stadiums in the 90's. Quote
Dons1903 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 I bought the dvd yesterday fae the club shop, i watched the 1st dvd with some of the greatest moments from 1998 to 2008, it brought alot of good memories from those years, even though it was like a yo-yo at times. the 2nd cd is the full coverage of the aberdeen 4-0 win against copenhagen.
