I'm going to stick up for the Black Bank here. Its a fantastic fan-led initiative, but it isnt without its issues. The black Bank is for EVERYONE, not a handful of idiots who think they can do what they like, and the singing of RTID after a few sang what they sang sounds like the perfect response (I wasnt there due to family reasons last night).If you sit in the South Stand, be part of the Black Bank. Claim it as yours. Don't let a handful of tits ruin it for you or anyone else.
Quote from: Cramby10 on September 29, 2015, 10:48:56 pmI haven't made many home games this season due to work. But when reading about home games I often read what a positive influence/idea the black bank has been. Well, if the best you have to offer is to sing something along the lines of 'we are f***ing shite' (unless I'm mistaken) then I'd really rather you didn't bother. If you were involved in singing such filth then you really are thick f***ing w**kers!!We all moan about our team. But this is the place to do it or in the pub with your mates. Not shouting out brainless garbage at the top of your voices on the terrace. Unbelievable! not haveing a go, but if you'd managed to get to these games and away games like a lot of these lads you might realise why, we are shite they pay there money they got a right to air there disgust

Form the west stand near the halfway line I could barely hear any noise at all from the Black Bank until we scored.

The fans doing the chanting/singing in the main are youngsters. Give them a break, weren't we all young once and probably sang rubbish at football matches?Maybe if the football we produced on the pitch was a bit better they would have something positive to sing about. I am sure they are bored. I certainly was during the first half on Tuesday.I am not saying it is right but remember they are just young kids.
But then again been the centre of attention wasn't the whole point back then

Sorry mate I cant accept that point at all...In my youth I spent years and years singing on the pop side at Belle Vue with my mates ,and for most of them watching a team far far worse than this one..I cant remember anytime that we felt the need to sing how rubbish we were...But then again been the centre of attention wasn't the whole point back then
Everybody inside the Keepmoat will have complained that we were playing shit at some point. The Black Bank are merely singing it instead of saying it.Not being funny, but if I was a player and heard the fans singing about me being shit, I'd put in the extra effort as a "f*** You" to them.
How old is the drummer?
Numbers in the black bank have slowly dwindled since the leeds and Bury game. I find if you come in any later than 2.45 you can't stand up as people are taking positions in the middle 5 rows from the bank and sitting down. Knowing full well people will stand there.Until we scored Tuesday the atmosphere was shocking and i was in the south stand, however i have just come back from a weekend in Germany and went to watch Cologne who don't shut up for 90 minutes.
Songs like 'We're shite and we know we are' and 'we're winning at home/away how sh...' have been sung for a long time before, perhaps decades. The chant is really just an adapted version of that.It's self-deprecating humour. Not for everyone admittedly but you can't really have double standards calling us all names under the sun on forums then not commenting at all in 'real life'.
