What can we do to help the cause?

[SP]

We invest numerous hours on here discussing the hoped for signings & departures but is there anything tangible we can do to increase our chances of success?  I'm on record as wanting the empty seats behind the Putney End goal filled with Fulham fans & introducing safe standing in the old Enclosure.  Any suggestions serious or otherwise?

Having seen the rather low key arrival of the players coach on Saturday, it was underwhelming.  Perhaps we should copy the England Rugby Union team & make the players walk through a sea of hyper pumped-up Fulham fans* from the local Tesco Express store just down the road?

*Yes, I can see recruitment might be a problem.

We are Fulham.  Have them stroll from Waitrose in Putney High Street to the Embankment then punt across the river.

I'm not so sure a bunch of crazed Riverside ST's full of Sanatogen and beta blockers would produce the desired effect SO.

i go to crystal palace alot where they have a drum in the stands and creates extremely loud atmosphere and gets the home fans going, remember when burton visited the cottage earlier on this season brought maybe 40 supporters but had a drum and that created a loud atmosphere for them

We had a drum against Wednesday I think

I'm not a fan of whole Palace "Ultra" thing. Its too forced and a bit cringey tbh. We are not German. We are English

We had a drum, it even had its own seat. Some loved it others didn't. The fella who played it very sadly died. I think it may have been a car accident.
During the Europa run I was impressed with the banners, flags and endless songs some of the teams we played had.

It would only take a few bad results and the crowd could get ugly (well uglier than most of them are anyway) and the players would be pelted with rotten tomatoes!

If the players entertain the atmosphere creates itself, although I have no hatred for drums and/or live music to spur it on.   I thought the Iceland fans at last year's Euros were brilliant.

Anyone starts banging a sodding drum near me will get a smack from my leatherette pension book cover.

Apparently in the Jags stadium they have a swimming pool....we could have a hot tub by each corner flag

Then perhaps the triumphal procession should start amongst the frozen food cabinets in Iceland rather than Tesco's or Waitrose?

....or maybe a royal progression down the Thames on a barge...

Two to be exact!

Reintroduce the Cravenettes?

[Burgf001]

Genuinely, I think moving the more passionate and singing fans of the Hammy End to the Riverside end near the away fans or to the Putney end and ditching the 'neutral' bit would improve the atmosphere significantly

Really, neither of these is ever going to happen, are they?

The 'singers' have traditionally stood in the Hammersmith End. They are not going to want to be in the Riverside, to pay the extra for the privilege and certainly not going to want to sit which they will be forced to do. The Riversiders are not going to want them there. And the police will not want them near the away supporters.

And the police and the FA are never going to allow the most vocal of our supporters and the away fans in the same section or using the same entrance.

Even though I doubt this would help motivate the players, I'd certainly support this suggestion.  Expect they're getting on a bit now though?

Drums are for concerts, cheering is for football matches.

[Woolly Mammoth]

Well the idea was of good intentions as it was a way of drumming up support.
