    Singing Section Needs Moved To East

    The guys in the South Stand do a great job but can't be heard from where they are. Difficult to get an atmosphere going in the East without the young lads and the drums and all that. No idea why it was moved in the first place much less to the section above the one that is being made kids/families only.

    The East has always been where the noise comes from, it needs more stewarding given these last few incidents and some folk need an eye kept on them, but it's robbing the atmosphere in important games like that where we need to get behind the team and get in other fans faces. The core who generate noise get backed up in the East for big games and at atmosphere flashpoints, but sitting middle of the east stand I can't hear them, through no fault of their own. A rare dud of an idea from Leann, needs put back.

    Apologies, I'm not on the forums super-often so I don't know whether this has been raised before.

    My bad, Famous Five. You know what I mean. South Stand boys quietened down about 76 mins, odd.

    In addition to acoustic concerns they cannot be seen on TV- seeing a lively section in the crowd looks good. Would like to see them on Hibs TV every now and then.

    Disagree

    You cant really compare the singing section with radges that throw stuff on the pitch and jump over the barriers.

    I said at the match yesterday that if they had the singing section there it might push the bampots a bit further away from the South and take the heat out of things in that corner.

    Would love the singing section back on the east stand but its never going to happen regardless of their good behavior. It will always be hostile against Hearts Huns and Celtic in that area so will never be risked certainly after the tube last night.

    You do realise that something was thrown from the FFU left hand side immediately after their goal. It landed inches from the goal line.

    I'm not saying that it was from the Singing Section, but it was thrown from their end of the stand and it looked like a drumstick, as another poster has already stated.

    Might be quite easy to identify the perpetrator if it was a drumstick !

    I could hear both the singing section and the east belting out songs last night, albeit different songs at the same time, but thought it sounded great. I don’t mind a bit of trad jazz so that maybe explains it.
