So much for debate.
It's true though, I was given some season tickets to use (upper tier, first few rows). Every time my friend and I got up to sing we felt like we were at a wake. There's no atmosphere at all, and NOBODY sings.
Just like the third "dun dun dun-dun-dun ROVERS!" is reserved only for those in the Blackburn end because by the time it gets to that point, it's died off everywhere else in the ground.
It'd be much better if there was a mix of people in the Jack Walker upper, but there's not because the season tickets are bought out by those who can afford them (rich and boring business types who don't sing and OAP concessions who can't).
And I'm not saying that all elderly persons can't or don't sing, because that would be generalising and cause further brow furrowing. It also wouldn't be true.
