I thought the chants were great today and showed our support for the team. However I think the expectation that everyone should join in, whether in the YF Zone or elsewhere is unrealistic. Crowd atmosphere and involvement in singing seems to get a better response with city or team chants, rather than individual player chants. The game atmosphere should be set with these city/team chants, especially in the first 20 minutes of the game. Songs about individual players should be sung when the player does something of note, rather than sing-along-a-player rotation.
