    Numbers are down, but more people need to join in!

    Were the flags obstructing anyone's view of the pitch? If not then it's ridiculous but unsurprising for the stewards.

    please can the YO boycott as many games as possible.... if they could boycott life in general it would be fantastic.

    it really just proves they don't know allot about football.

    The team need the fans right now and attendences are down in general. The Yellow Order have also lost a great deal of members. Last season they were getting around 100 people and now they are lucky if they get 50. They really need some support down there but just aren't getting it. It's all very well and good people aiming the gun at them saying, well they're just quiet. There is only so much 30 people can do, and they are not chanting machines, they are just like every other fan and they get hacked off with some of the performances we have been seeing just like you do, yet they still do what they can to get behind the team. I join them when I can because they really do try and they need all the support they can get if they are to develop and be effective.

    No idea. Could be a combination of things. Politics amongst the group (some wanting to be a firm), the move to SW corner, people just not turning up to games altogether.

    I was in row x in rs2 and the atmosphere was immense when Watford were well on top. I think the yellow order should come back to where they were they just seem separate to any other fans in the ground, we should all unite and let every fan be part of it. Come on you 'orns!!!

    Well said. Completely agree. I used to go and sit in RS3 next to them and it was good, and most people around me joined in. But now they're on their own little corner i can never hear them and no one else really seems to join in. I want it to work, as we need it! But think SW corner was a bad move

    Agreed. I got my ST in RS3 because of the atmosphere in between the two loudest sets of fans, now they're down the bottom its awfully quiet. Even when we do try joining in the sound delay makes it awkward - you can see the drum being hit before you actually hear the noise, its quite off-putting!

    I think it's better in SW corner and people who want a better atmosphere need to go and join in! Need numbers there tomorrow lads!

    He has a lot going on at the moment with work and personal bits. We haven't had the same amount of people come to the SW corner as we had in RS4 and Hollywood and I are the ones who pushed through the move down there. So we need to take some responsibility for it if it continues to be a complete failure. We were going to lose some members regardless of whether we moved or not because as previously mentioned, there was a group who joined us for games who wanted to be a firm :doh: Hollywood also had our drumsticks and then failed to turn up for the Palace game which caused a small problem which was solved by good old Harry Hornet in the second half.

    The YO got conned by the club into moving into the SW corner really

    Just an obvious ploy to make it easier to monitor and control them and they fell for it

    Member benefits are poor. Add in a badge, a discount card for local businesses and a twice yearly jamboree and I reckon we'll be back to triple figures.

    Attendance there looked very down today, we need a better atmosphere and people always say how they want people to start singing, everyone who wants this should try and get themselves down to the SW Corner and try create one

    Who was the ******* with the drum? He spent most of the 2nd half playing his own tune and completely ignoring the game.

    The people who stayed in RS4 started more songs than The Yellow Order yesterday. I think its time to cut your losses and return to the top-corner, the move has ruined the momentum you were building. Its much quieter now than it was at the start of the season.

    Thing is, the club want TYO in the corner, it's easier to monitor, there's not enough room up in RS4, people that have stayed in RS4 need to come down to SW Corner along with anyone else who wants to improve the atmosphere

    Thats a fair point, if they all banded-together it might help.

    From where I sit though (RS3) I can only hear the drum in the SW corner, and only the occasional song when everyone else is quiet and TYO are particularly loud. Having their backs to most of the stand doesn't help with sound, in my opinion.
