They sang 'Chairboys' for 45 minutes straight It was a great song and inspired them to a 3-1 victory if my memory serves me correctly?Trek wrote:
Best and most vocal support I can remember was from a 100 or so fans from Wycombe Wanderers. ;)

45 minutes of edinboroughs barmy army in the airwair then??? i'd hate to leave. . . i still get a buzz when we are shooting towards the terrace in the second half so many good memories, when we're shooting that way i always think we can get a result

Close but no cigar. Diamonds actually won 2-0 (6.9.03), with goals from Jack and Lowe, which made Wycombe's vocal support all the more impressive. ;)Oundle Diamond #2 wrote:

They had 677 fans that day but only 100 or so were actually singing. I was in the Air Wair at the time.

Re: AirWair/Peter DeBanke Terrace
All of this has been debated to death annually ever since first raising its head in 2004 !!
Stewards in your face all the time telling you to sit down was the main complaint, plus being asked to pay extra for a seat, there were many others - just read the report.
I tried it out against Macclesfield when the club provided us with the chance to do so, but few other fans did. I wouldn't like to move to be honest, I enjoy watching football from the PDB and would be very loath to move personally. I've stood in the same spot on the PDB since it opened and I've kinda got used to it, plus Peter de Banke was a great servant to both clubs, its fitting it is the home end

I'm pretty sure I remember Kevin Betsy scoring for Wycombe? Sure there wasn't more than one meeting?Trek wrote:Close but no cigar. Diamonds actually won 2-0 (6.9.03), with goals from Jack and Lowe, which made Wycombe's vocal support all the more impressive. ;)Oundle Diamond #2 wrote:

We did play them later in League 2 when Steve Claridge played but the time they made all the noise was in League 1 in September 2003.

Re: AirWair/Peter DeBanke Terrace
I'd be up for a trial of the move...stewards getting in our face wont happen this time round I should think...especially if we're all standing, like a good chunk were on Monday...The York noisy supporters idea at Wembley is a great example, we could get quite the atmosphere going if we gave it a go. Equally I doubt It will happen and am just as happy in the De Banke...but I don't mind moving.
