Atmosphere at Home Park

(taken from Pasoti Daily News update)

A new survey by website Fan Banter on atmospheres at all 92 Premier League and EFL clubs found Home Park to have one of the best matchday atmospheres.
Home Park was ranked joint-second (along with 29 other clubs) with only Sheffield United, Leeds United, Portsmouth, Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest deemed to have better atmospheres at their stadiums.
Stadium MK, home of M.K. Dons, has the worst atmosphere. (Nicked from the Thursday Update)

Really - strange, so many on here say the atmosphere is terrible.

Who is right?

I think it’d differ game to game and not just at home park.

I think the fact that Home Park is relatively full AT THE MOMENT helps a lot.

I’m amazed by this I must admit.

Some games we can be quite loud but there’s been a lot of library game in the last couple of seasons in my opinion.

The atmosphere can be decent at home park, it’s been tough the past couple of seasons as we are crap on the pitch not benn much to get the crowd going really, so I think the fans make a decent effort considering the club want everyone sat down in silence and the team being so gash.

The acoustics of our ground really doesn't help. Newport for example are much louder with a few hundred fans than their away crowd with all noise dissipating into thin air.

How much better was the Devonport End in 1998 when it had a corrugated iron roof. The Exeter derby would be deafening. Now you struggle to hear the Devonport the other side of the pitch.

Was this survey done by the same people who rated the Devon derby as the 2nd most intensive atmosphere in England???

I always thought our home atmosphere wasn't very good but when I think back to the 75+ away games I have been to stretched across all 3 divisions we've been in. Our home atmosphere is far better than 90%

Joint second with 29 other clubs!?

Would say our atmosphere is better than most at L2 and L1 level. Will be even better when the Board bugger off back to the main stand and we can all relax a bit.... :greensmile:

Whilst the atmosphere is pretty good at HP, what I do miss since I moved here, compared to most London clubs, is the wit and banter. We just don’t do it.

You’re right. I think possibly the only ground I’ve felt really intimidated inside.
