Gold Coast United Supporters Club
The match against Fulham on Wednesday night was a great first hit out for the team and supporters at a fully open stadium.
From a supporters point of view the home end was disjointed with pockets of people all over the place. Trying different chants and getting an atmosphere was difficult. But hey, it was our first go.
What we need are a core group of die hard supporters who want to STAND UNITED in the home bay week in week out creating that atmosphere. As Australians this is not a natural thing to do, as we have been conditioned to think that it is only overseas Football nations who can show massive support.
The introduction of the A-League as NEW Football in this country has squashed that idea. All the A-League clubs have very active supporter groups who to varying degrees STAND and sing in the Northern Home ends at their respective grounds. There is plenty of banter between rival supporter groups both at the grounds, in the pubs and on various forums and social media networks.
Now it our turn here on the Gold Coast to introduce a HOME END to the wider Gold Coast community and GCU FC and give them a supporter group they can be proud of.
We have started to get together as a group to form a committee but we need members. As a start go to our entry page and register your details as a Supporter. This is free.
