Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

I knew it would happen! Im a little disappointed that Mikey and Steve from the "Official Supporters Club" felt they had to come on to scorn the efforts of someone who is trying do something a little different. Jase has come up with a top idea ( only 2 posts say different) and should be knighted in my opinion..........well i'll get him a pint at least!

As Lowiey says, By the fans for the fans! Are the supporters club worried that their numbers will dwindle? Fear ye not Mr Vice Chair and Mr Membership Secretary (i hope thats right Henry) the supporters club have been around for to long for you to worry.

As i mentioned before, and Cammy agreed, the sooner we get a meeting organised the better..........but lets not tell the supporters club, just in case!!!!!!! ( only jokin boys)

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

Although I'm far too ancient to be an Ultra, I think it's a great idea...just the thing to bring some much-needed colour, excitement and passion to the IES - and maybe even attract a few new faces. What's more, there need be no clash between official and unofficial clubs - people can be in both. It's just nice to see a bit of positive thinking after all the negativity of recent weeks.

As for the word Ultras, what's in a name? This is Accy, not Milan!

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

I agree with Wynonie, the enthusiam on the Clayton End is infectious, and even though I, too, am far too old to take part, it makes the match special for me. So, all power to Willie Miller for his organising and his flags, and 'Ultras' sounds like a perfectly good name to me, as long as it is about providing great support for the lads on the pitch.

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

to be honest i'm not keen on the name 'ultras', i dont know why, it just sounds a bit tacky to me!

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

"tacky"

next time Sampdoria, or Milan, or Fiorentina are on TV then have a look at the effect the tacky Ultras have on the pre, current & post match atmosphere, they'll be the ones with the streamers, flares, organised mosaics, huge surfed banners etc

The whole Ultra movement is about the most passionate fans showing their support, spending time, money & much energy on getting the atmosphere on the terrace right.

We could all just sip bovril & mumble to ourselves......

How about then the "Clayton End Reds"............................................. ........

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

Yeah but arent the ultras the people who cause alot of croud trouble as well

But still its a good idea!!!

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
 

I think that opposition supporters may think that the Ultras are a hooligan element. I totally agree with the idea but I think the name may be mis-interpreted by the opposition. Here is a quote from a report of an incident which happened in Italy a couple of years ago

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club

U dont want bad press before it starts!!!!

Re: Stanley Red Ultras Supporters Club
