The corners are even worse acoustics wise in an already dreadful stadium for acoustics.

Everton have built their new ground perfect and wish ours was made more with fans in mind. Pushing the limit on elevation, close to the pitch and the ground made so any noise makes an absolute racket.

Will be some matchday experience for Everton next season for sure.

South stand is about 20 yards from the goal line!!

There's nothing wrong with the stadium, it's the people in it who create the noise and generate the atmosphere.

Nobody mentions this when you recall occasions like the Barrow home game last season. Many away followings over the years have generated plenty of noise.

As suggested above, it takes organisation and planning to orchestrate and lead people which takes effort over long periods of time when the 'leaders' of the Black Bank group might change and evolve, so keeping things going isn't always easy.

We keep saying this but it's factual the KM wasn't built to maximise sound like other grounds do. Yes a lot of people will be heard. It would be even better said lots of people of built better.

We were given a tour of the ground before completion, I asked the architect if there had been any consideration of acoustics and he said that sort of whole building design was something way out of the budget.

If there were 2,000+ supporters singing in unison in the South Stand they would be as loud as the away supporters that clubs bring in numbers in the North Stand. Simple as that.

I blame the great crested newts, if it had not been for English Heritage and their ilk we would now be ensconced in a mini "emirates of the north"

Be grateful for what we do have, some of us can remember the pools of p**s cascading down the pop stand terraces!

Its always been the case with us that the "singers" belt it out but the rest next to them struggle to force out anything above an embarrassed chortle.

To ALL the singers, next time we start a verse try bellowing the words out full throttle, you will be so surprised at what levels we could attain.
