Although it can obviously have a vital bearing on it, crowd numbers and ground size do not always correlate to atmosphere. 200 people in a small section of the away stand at Chester generated much more atmosphere than 1700 people in the rest of the ground. To cite another example, Mansfield have a large (for a division 2 club) stadium and around double our gates. Their ground has all the atmosphere of a social security office.

The Clayton End, even though it may only have around 3-400 people on it can at times, generate an atmosphere which is absolutely electric. When Stanley are bearing down on the opposition goal and the noise level starts rising, it certainly makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck (maybe even like a chicken! ). Add to that the fact that this is now one of the few places where you can stand on the terraces to watch league football, and I think we have something worth promoting to neutral fans...which was what Bananaman was trying to do.

I think away fans generally create more of an atmopshere than home fans at a lot of grounds, because you are outnumbered you tend to put a bit more effort in to it, maybe it's the tribal instinct of foootball fans when invading the enemy of the day

To be honest, I can't see much wrong with the stuff others are saying on there. You started a thread and made claims that can't really be supported, then come on here moaning that other fans are having a go at you. Where's the sense in that??

you say entrapment thats my iq gone up another 50 if only i was that inteligenti only said that it had a retro feel to it when i go and watch stanley ..i never said we had the best facilities and im not moaning im just saying hence the smileys i only moan when we are losingpeople can criticise all they want it will never spoil my day out watching the stanley
