Sect 43 group - new group starting up


Hello,

I would just like to inform use about our group that will be starting up in the following weeks / months which will be located within the back rows of Section 43.

Basically a group of us want to take the 12 th man to a new level and help progress with a new identity although 'SECT43' will still be apart of the 12th man. Just renaming the section as theirs a lot of confusion about the name. The 12th man is the whole support and not just that one area where the singing mainly comes from.

The 12th man has been a successful campaign which has brought a lot to the table, storage, green day, 100 flags and so on.

So who are Sect 43 and what do they want to achieve?

Well over a chat between 2 of us one night, talking about the 12thman we came to the conclusion that their isn't a main group in the section. Example - one week it can be packed, the next it can be pretty empty. It needs a core group of people who are their most weeks all group together and build from their.

A group in which want to sing for 90mins, people who want to help out with our displays. A more activists group at Easter Road in which will help do displays at EVERY game. Things such as surfers being brought out, hundreds of flags, banners up, so basically an every game 'Green Day' which went down a storm with most fans.

Have we got a group together as of yet?

Well we went through to Dunfermline in our little group singing from the moment we got on the train and into the ground. A lot of people joining in with us on the walk to the ground. Was different from the usual atmosphere walking to the ground. We met a few new bodies who said their interested in coming along with us. We are small at the moment but we are hoping this can take of and help extend onto bigger things. I will put my hands up to the idea we had of locating down the front vs aberdeen, but we will learn from the mistakes. We had the idea that if we where down the front that the people in the middle would join in with the singing. You can't be heard much from the front as the roof helps the sound spread at the back. We were the Hoist up guys who were singing for around 20minutes pre match, seemed to go down well with a few supporters.

What do we want from you?

Well really whether you want to come along and join us on away days or you just want to join us at the ground its up to you. We would however love to have a big group of committed people who want to join in our activities at Easter Road and some away days when we plan a big trip. Meet up pre match for discussions on future displays songs, have a few beers and a sing song to kick that little big of pre match buzz that a few of us are struggling for at the moment. (or an orange juice for the under age):wink:

Where will we be locating and how are we going to go about this?

Well we haven't fully talked this through yet but the general feedback is a core group, tight knit as some say located in the centre of the back 6 rows. back six rows holds about approx 30 seats per row so about 180. We would like a tight group of around 120 season ticket holders in the one group, like 20 to a row x 6 which then we can build on and walk ups who want to join in can join on to the sides.

This is what we want to achieve, course its going to be a tough ask. We hope that we can get a fair number of people up for it.

What type of group do we want to be?

Well whats inspired us is the likes or the green brigade and some of the other scottish groups, also some from down south. Who may not be big but have the passion to help drive their groups forward. Singing for 90 minutes, displays, colour throughout the game. Do the odd bounce type songs. We aim to bring new songs to the table, getting them started. Rather than the really good ones that pop up never getting an airing.

What are our goals?

To bring colour to Easter Road every week
New songs
A hard core group of people / singers into the section.
Support our youth team when we can - u19s derby on 8th october
Have organised away days when we try and get big numbers along from the section at ER
Do displays for players that were legends at the club, have anti sectarian, show racism the red card and things like that.
Also a few of our members would like to help raise money towards Dnipro, have a whip round our main group once a month.
Sing for 90minutes
Have a group who all know one another
banner making days (we have a hall we can hire whenever we want)
We now have our own forum which is up and running, their is the open sect43 discussions part and we have our private forum for people who want to join our main group, even if you do not want to be apart of our main group at the back then get your opinions up and what you like and dislike.

WE KNOW THAT WE ARE GOING TO GET SHOT DOWN AT TIMES, BUT ITS THE FEEDBACK AND SUPPORT THAT WILL HELP US. WE WILL TAKE ALL THE CRITICISM ON THE CHIN ASLONG AS YOU DON'T HAVE AGO AT US AND DO NOT HELP US WITH A SOLUTION.

We will be calling a meeting soon which new heads can come along for, meetings usually end up in a few pints and a brief chat. But we could use all the help we can get.

That's a common misconception, they're actually the "Peoples' Front of Judea". The "Judean People's Front" are a bunch of Arschlöcher.

Gee whizz.

This reminds me in a strange way of the Trots who stand of a Saturday at the top of Leith Walk, some selling Militant, others selling Socialist worker. During the 80's a fringe act by the name of the merry mac fun company used to take the rise by imitating said newspaper sellers. One would shout 'Socialist Worker' whilst his comrade shouted 'I'm bored....very very bored'. Somehow reminds me of the 12 th man and each spin off therof. Just saying!

We need to make ER a fortress again and this will really help. It should be intimidating for opposition players and fans as well as being a real drive for our own players.

Anyone who is helping to achieve this for OUR club should be commended so it's great to see you trying to make a difference.

Good luck :flag:

Sounds like a good idea. On the evidence of Saturday, I have one word of genuine advice. Sing the songs slower. The hoist up song is great and really catchy, but at the speed you were all singing it at EEP and on the train, it's hard for others to hear the words and therefore they won't join in - the volume of the actual song is also compromised if people can't belt out each note and what tends to happen is that the clapping ends up louder than the voices. Same with most other songs too - sing 'em slower and they'll catch on with more folks. For real life examples - listen to Stoke fans at the Brittania and Man Utd fans at their away games. Both awsome.

I know what you mean, will take note of this thanks. Same with Hail Hail ect they all get sang a bit fast. Fancy getting involved with our group at all?

Must say its been good to see we haven't been slated too much, we thought we would have had a few against us by now.

Good Luck and well done to all those involved so far. I personally think what you're aiming to achieve is fantastic and everyone will benefit if you succeed in getting this off the ground.

Can I implore those who only have negative criticism of these lads to stay clear of posting your thoughts on this thread. If you don't want to help and can't bring yourself to wish them good luck, then have the courtesy to say nothing.

thanks mate, we are putting alot of time into it so hopefully get to where we want to be.

We can take the criticism, if they also add a solution and something that may help us improve as a group. We will just ignore the people who are fully trying to put us down.

We are open to all input at the moment.

After sitting near your group at EEP can I suggest the following.

Drop the CC, CC GTF chants.
Drop the Petrie, Petrie GTF chants.
Drop the Mercer songs.
But most of all dont boo Hibs players who are waiting to be brought on as a sub (ala Wotherspoon)

I won't lie i did join in with the CC chant at the very end, think a mercer song was sung by a couple. Im not 100% sure with the spoony part don't remember any of us boo him coming on. I think he's a decent player just needs time to go back to the basics.

Not saying it was you personally but there was certainly booing coming from the group as spoony was pulling his top in preparation for coming on.

I said to my mates at the time so much for the "singing section" getting behind the team.

One other thing if you are trying to get the backing of the Hibs board in this venture you might need to drop the "Victor Palsson he'll p1ss where he wants" song as well. :wink:

Hopefully when things like this happen the idiots will get drowned out.

Were you guilty?

To save others the trouble ....


Drunkenness.
(1) Any person subject to military law who is guilty of drunkenness, whether on duty or not, shall, on conviction by court-martial, be liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years or any less punishment provided by this Act

(2) For the purposes of this section a person is guilty of drunkenness if owing to the influence of alcohol or any drug, whether alone or in combination with any other circumstances, he is unfit to be entrusted with his duty or with any duty which [he might reasonably expect to be called upon to perform], or behaves in a disorderly manner or in any manner likely to bring discredit on Her Majesty’s service.

I’m sure that could be adapted to become the code of conduct in Sect 43 – if it were the opposite:devil:
