Jose Mourinho 'sorry' for slamming Stamford Bridge atmosphere after Chelsea fans bring the noise against West Brom

don't know this article has been posted in any other thread, but if the club allowing safe standing someday, then this Atmosphere case is as good as done.

No good bringing the noise for one game though.Needs consistency and he wasnt wrong at all in his comments.Been there a few times and its just been flat regardless of who its against and result

Well, Tottenham are coming, so I bet there will be noise.

Sometimes I would like to see Mou raising his hands, so the stadium will explode.

The club have admitted that tickets are bought by 'bots' on the automated ticket system, then sold on by touts.

Explains a lot about the (lack of) atmosphere.

It's nice that they stated it happens but didn't mention that they were going to do anything about it as well

Chelsea chiefs have met supporters in a bid to improve the atmosphere at Stamford Bridge, with proposals for designated singing sections and individuals to lead the songs

Jose Mourinho complained last month that it was like playing in ‘an empty stadium’ and, though he apologised, the issue is being taken seriously in the boardroom

After meeting supporters’ groups over the last month to canvass opinions, chairman Bruce Buck presented some of the ideas to the club’s fans’ forum in a meeting at the Bridge. Chelsea want to trial a new singing section in the Shed End, which is shared with away supporters, in the hope it will spark more noise from other parts of the ground. They also want to give individuals responsibility for leading the singing.

The noisiest Chelsea fans are usually at the other end of the ground in the Matthew Harding Stand, and another idea is to move away fans and create a second large groundswell of vocal support in the Shed End

Away fans used to sit behind the dug- outs in the lower East Stand but Mourinho complained in his first spell at the club that they were too close to him and could easily influence the linesman and fourth official.

Chelsea may even consider moving the dug-outs across the pitch if the away fans are moved back and the manager is unhappy.

Such problems are by no means limited to Chelsea. Many grounds, including some famed for their passionate atmosphere, have been hit by the changing demographic of match-going fans in the Barclays Premier League era and the increasing corporate sector.

Chelsea supporters teased their manager during the game immediately after his comments, chanting: ‘Jose, give us a song’.

Yay or nay?

Btw, our away fans completely out-sung the supposedly best atmosphere in the league at Stoke. The issue is obviously not limited to us. It's the whole league. I think it's something the FA should be looking into and not just individual clubs.
