TrueBlue - New SUFC Ultra's Group..

[Smiffy]

Whilst watching the Besiktas V Liverpool game on Wednesday night, it amazed me how much colour and noise the Besiktas Ultra's created..

So it got me thinking..

We should create our own group of Ultra's, to help improve the atmosphere when we move to Fossetts Farm.

My idea's/thoughts are as follows.

The main aim is to improve the noise, colour and family friendlyness at the ground.

To support the team for the entire 90 minutes.

To encourage the entire ground to join in.

To introduce more traditional/easy to learn SUFC chants.

We will have our own TrueBlue (Ultra's) section behind the goal at Fossetts Farm.

We will have regular organised group displays, of flags, placards, confetti, balloons, streamers etc.

We will have our own Ultra's Band, drums, trumpets, horns etc etc.

We will have Ultra's group branded merchandise.

Group members will receive discounted season tickets for the designated Ultra's section of the stadium.

Group members will receive priority/discounted away tickets

One off/Monthly membership fee's (to be discussed)

Outside sponsorship of the Ultra's section in the stadium.

Regular Ultra's meetings to discuss idea's, displays, trips, additional funding and sponsorship etc..



I really feel we should try and get this idea off the ground, if you look around the country, other clubs are already doing the same..

Palace

York

Rangers

Aberdeen

So, how do the SZ public feel about this?

Obviously this idea will need a lot of time and effort putting in and will need 100% co-operation from SUFC themselves, but I'm hoping The Shrimpers Trust will assist in helping this idea get off the ground, maybe even the consideration of running the Ultra's group alongside the Trust?..

Serious thoughts/idea's people please?

Can we sacrifice a sheep on the pitch before each home game too, and make new signings eat the testicles?

I've been saying this for years.
Fabulous idea Smiffy.
I alluded to doing something like this on one of the club surveys but you've gone a million miles further than my initial thoughts!

obviously name to be debated on! so we will call it SUFC Ultras for now!

 

[JoshC]

sounds like a great idea, something to really improve the atmossphere at home games

always love seeing the noise and display created by ultras on football factories if we could get even half of that down here it would be amazing

 

[Flaiming Moe]

Quality idea TB !

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

We will have Ultra's group branded merchandise.

Lazio's Irriducibli do this, I know they've got a website and a shop in Rome city centre IIRC.

Some of it's quite cool, although some of it is a bit fake Burberry dodgy market looking!

Kegra Racing might have some old scooters you can set on fire and drop on away fans.

 

[leeblue]

I up for this big time

 

[Smiffy]

Would be good if a few of the mods could get involved in this. I think with sz we have the perfect core support to get this thing going. Cricko, ken, mts et al, up for a chat in the spread tomorrow?

Are you from Norfolk?:confused:

 

[Tilly hates yellow boots]

Still only 16 but would love to be involved in something like this. Love to support the team in this way, it would give the club a new heart.

Count me in :)

If i'm not to young ?

 

[C C Csiders]

i would give the club a new heart.

And the moral of this story is: always carry your donor card.

Of course not, the idea is to get as many supporters involved as possible regardless of age etc.

Any plan to improve the atmosphere at RH gets my vote.

Is this not more a long-term plan for FF though?
