    I understand.  But this is probably the worst meltdown over a loss I've witnessed in 20 years.  No way this is an adult poster or if he is,  he escaped an asylum.  I actually hurt for the person.  I can only encourage he/she that there is life outside the trailer parks of Oakdale Tennessee and they can find success in life if they learn to properly handle their insecurities.  Cloudland has had football success for decades so it shouldn't come as a surprise for Friday nights results!  Oakdale has never won a game in roan mountain but I promise it will be OK!  Just have your mom bring you a protein smoothie while you look for jobs online and give the T a rest:grin:

    Lol Yes

    So looking at pics of the bleachers, didn’t they used to go further up the mountainside nearly to that fence that’s above them?  

    Maybe 40 years ago. I think they was wooden. They changed them to concrete they are wide. An addition was built to the west (right side) about 25ish years ago. There are 3 sections.

    I'm not so sure I would want a change this late in the season. While it does sound good to have your boys in front of the home side fans, this could easily create unwelcome distraction. The last thing you want to see happen is to have your boys get caught up in all the hype and lose focus in a very important game. Just my two cents. Hope we get a chance to play the winner of this game. Good luck to both teams.

    Good point.  They may not be able to handle being so close to all that cheering. Lol. But it could seriously be a hindrance to a new coaches

    I wouldn't get a petition, I'd call the school and tell them what I thought. This could be the straw that broke the Yellow Jackets back.

    I’m not starting any petition. I don’t have a kid playing anymore. I’m just a Cloudland fan with an opinion. I played on the home side and same as most cland posters here.I thought it to be a rough, muddy, loud, intimidating, sideline. I was in the stands when our team came out for the first time ever and ran over to the the far side of the field to play Powell V. Our fans were not happy but I told ppl it would be ok. At that time I thought there was some tactical advantage to being on that side. But after watching the first round lose in 2003.  I was convinced any advantage gained was lost if the other team got the momentum. Saw it again when on homecoming Jellico being behind 21-0  at haft comes back to beat us. I guess maybe it don’t matter. The county will probably consolidate the Highschool before long.  All I know is that nasty home side of the field grew some nasty mean cloudland players. What don’t kill you only makes you stronger. Coalfield will be right at home bc there Stands practically go straight to the players benches.
