Etcetera fans seem fairly confident. TBH even when they brought 2k last time they barely sung at all, several smaller followings were much louder than them.
It’s not difficult to ‘out sing’ us at home. The atmosphere at home games is appalling.

It has been very quiet barring the City game and even then it wasn't that great, but Exeter have never been known for the vocality of their fan base even against their close rivals.

No I have been to Exeter vs Plymouth and torquay games as I only live a 20 mins or so drive from Exeter and I haven't been impressed, same applies to all South West teams though its not just you, for the size of the crowds they have Plymuff fans don't make much noise and Yeovil are a joke.  Truro City though, I hear they have a very vociferous backing  And trust me, the pessimism really is meant genuinely from most posters. We are very hit and miss, when we are good we are very very good but when we are bad we are awful. Especially at home this season.

As mentioned on another thread, I went to a recent match at SJP. I could discern some faint noises coming from the "big bank". Some wazzock also had a drum.

Drums do not belong inside football grounds unless they are from a band performing on the pitch pre game.

I can remember Millwall taking over the bank around 1976 and they had a massive drum banging all game

I have say on balance 90/10 I don’t like drums, ok, the only exception to that is the drumming at Aldershot, they or that person really goes for it and they know what they’re doing too. Other that that nah.

Etcetera fans seem fairly confident. Big home crowd could work against them if they're losing or not playing well. Added pressure, plus the fact a couple of thousand grecians will be out singing them anyway. The crowd won't effect the result either way. TBH even when they brought 2k last time they barely sung at all, several smaller followings were much louder than them. Make it make sense

Are you still bitter that the England band rejected your application
