This has been too overlooked when anyone has used it to mock us.

True to his colours, he whined about the canvas whereas his opponent seemed fine.
Would’ve ran away if the ring hadn’t been there. A runner like the rest.
I was at our 1-0 home win Vs Hull under AVB when he blamed us for the performance being so bad.
No way Andre, the atmosphere was dead because the football was.
Having something to play for and a good chance of getting something is what gets the atmosphere rocking.
Beating Woolwich 3-0 under Conte was the loudest I've ever heard either stadium.
Pretty much every home game this season though has been the quietest either has been. Nobody cares anymore.
All I can ever hear is the one guy about 10 rows back who screams Levy abuse in a high pitched voice like Joe Swash or the little one from Horrible bosses.
New ground is basically a shopping centre where they show live football (and other events).
If we were smashing teams 3-0 every game the place would be rocking.
atmosphere is directly related to our performance and the context of the game as you rightly said
Another epic one was when we beat Chelsea 2-0 in 16/17
Chelsea had won 13 games in a row coming to WHL and were top. We went into the match 4th having only lost 2, Man U and Chelsea away.
The atmosphere was immense. That whole season was though.
The season before, when we didn't win in our first 4 games, we had a 2-2 vs Stoke and that was pretty "meh"
Heck, I went to the away end at Upton Park for that 3-4 win, which was mental then went back the next season and it was a boring 1-1. There was absolutely no atmosphere at all by then. So even the away fans are driven by both performances and stakes.
Was there too, can attest.
They've been trying for a long time. As I stated in a separate post, selling a minority stake in a football club is a difficult proposition. Not many people invest tens or hundreds of millions in a football club if they're not going to get to make any decisions. A minority stake in a football club is just a very expensive ST.

How comes other clubs manage it?
Who else has done it? United sold sporting control of the club to INEOS for 25% - that's an incredibly unique proposition that I can't think of another example.
Other clubs are owned by "groups" (like Liverpool), but when you peek under the hood almost all of the shares are held by 1-3 individuals who hold all authority. Everyone else has nominal shares (like Lebron) which mostly exist to tie those individuals to the club for branding. And, as we publicly enjoyed watching at Woolwich, the 2-3 party "partnerships" generally devolve into public and distracting boardroom battles after a few years. Because, again, no one spends 8-9 figures on a football club to not call the shots.
There's already rumblings that Chelsea is coming apart at the seams. This United deal will probably similarly fall apart soon enough.
Because as Memphis pointed out. Those minority sales usually come with said minority owner getting a say in things. Which Levy is not willing to give up.
Palace have it too. John Textor being a minority shareholder. And he’s famously been trying to get out of that for ages with no success whatsoever. Mainly because you’d have to be mental to agree to such a position.
The Palace situation in particular looks like a quagmire.
There's what, 4-5 part owners aside from Textor? And all of them want to either get out to buy their own club, or buy up the rest.
It is lowkey kinda impressive that the chaos at boardroom level hasn't spread to the pitch.
Probably shows that players and managers don’t really care about, or are effected by, what happens above them. If they get their salary in the bank once a month, they’ll likely turn up and do the job.
Particularly at a club like Palace where you can showcase your abilities and get a move to a larger club.
Yeah it looks more likely that they will only get a buyout instead of this minority sale where he gets £100m for the hotel and £50m for new board members
