Bws Cat 0 Posted August 8, 2012 I wish everybody would stop moaning about the River End. It''s a family area of course it''s not going to be a rough and tumble, noisy chest thumping atmosphere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted August 8, 2012 I think Cheeseboard started his own brewery didn''t he?. I''m sure David McNally will be able to fill you in further though... ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenerationA47 752 Posted August 8, 2012 The Olympic venues are also family filled and are still arguably manage a fair bit of noise and excitement when called for. In any case I''d query how much moaning is actually going on above- you''ve got to admit that the river & city are typically dead, atmosphere-wise, even if you prefer it that way. As curious and self-sabotaging as I find it, I do appreciate from observation that many folk do prefer to pay to to sit in silence at the football, regardless of their age and filial status. It could be different on occasion in my day though, when us kids for a quid got into that end! Cheeseboard, that''s a bit odd too isn''t it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention that there are many more thousands in the stadiums than just one stand at Carrow Road. Not to mention foreign teams might be louder due to the way they ''do it''.

GenerationA47 752 Posted August 9, 2012 True, ambassador - having been at Wembley for a GB game, it was very hush-hush. I meant the athletics, velodrome, etc. but it is funny how the Olympic footie was so different, crowd-wise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
