Im thinking of getting going a ultras group at stoke. The Upper ultras ( upper tierers) in block 1 maybe 2 depending on numbers for next season.
Where we have banners drapped over the front of the upper tier and stand , bounce when singing and even wave a large flag. So far theres 6 of us - me, Trevor, keith , Alan , Derek and Frank. Anyone interested let me know and i will contact Malcolm Clarke to see if he can get the ball rolling with the club ( Tony Scholes doesnt respond to any of my emails )

I think it's a great idea. We've got that 'Forever Grateful' banner to kick off with haven't we?  |

Not too sure on the name though....Boothen Regiment or Sideway Commandos is a sure fire winner. Don't forget for authenticity though, stolen flags & scarves from away fans to be draped as a token of appreciation, with flags upside down (too much reading on European Ultras Mr Caerwrangon....) 😂😂

All sounds a bit too exciting for me. Dont worry we will bounce for 30 seconds every 5 mins. Got to be careful of the old ticker |

Do we have to get up to bounce? Can't we just stamp our feet?
It take ages to get the blanket just right and whilst I like a good furore as much as the next man it would be quite a pain to have to tuck me sen in every 5 minutes whilst out of breath.
It's a good idea for the summer mind. Can it be a seasonal thing?

Good idea, 12 degrees up to 18 we stand and bounce for 30 seconds every 5 minutes. 12 degrees to 5 degrees we bounce for a minute every 8 minutes. 5 degrees or below we will sit and tap our feet and wave our blankets in the air ( think of ultras with scarfs at palace) |

No need to copy ultra crap from elsewhere with their great big daft flags. Just get some good old songs back from the 70's like "we are the Potters, the midlands we rule" - once we get above wba! Then stuff like "we don't carry hammers..." for the more violent days!

Then stuff like "we don't carry hammers..." for the more violent days! Good point. We could start a different theme. How about we wear scarves on the right wrist and put out right wrist in the air every 10 minutes and shout as one " we are the people song" then with 5 minutes to go until full time we put the right wrist in the air and shout " potters , potters the mighty potters" ( putting fear into away fans) . If its too cold though you can leave early though to start the motor up |

One things for sure, the away fans will be suitably baffled. Hopefully the scarf waving will intimidate the away players as well.

Good luck with this. Hope you get a big enough crowd to get some atmosphere back into matchdays!
As leader, can you also have a placard that warns 'No Delilah' ... until we score (or our momentum is building), so we can only sing it when it sounds good (and loud)!

Won't that get Bovril everywhere though?? That's what flasks are for-no spillage. Get confiscated by security. Maybe disguise the flask as a flare or smoke bomb and get it through no problem, a Bovril bomb in fact. |

I'll look forward to that. I may pop a little something extra in my flask on the day. |

I think it's a wizard idea. However my heart's not so good these days so would it be possible to do every other bounce, say the odd ones 1,3,5 and so on?
