PA announcer

WHY did they play that fooking siren again the other day? Didn't go Saturday so don't know if they played it then. but they can fook off. And why are they playing Sweet Caroline still? It has nothing to do with this team of players and didn't mean anything to the fans anyway. It was was Glenn Little's choice of song wasn't it. Might as well play Big bad bloody wolf again too.

Get rid of the PA bloke asap.

And why are they playing Sweet Caroline still?

The club are obviously stupid because back in 2006 when it actually meant something quite special they didn't really play it. Now they choose to play it 9-10 years later for a group of players who - like you said - it means nothing to.

Also, why do they play it, introduce the teams, get the ball to the halfway line and then play it again. It's like trying to create an atmosphere artificially.

They play the siren most home games and yes it's terrible, I don't mind Sweet Caroline though.

When we're into SC it sounds great, but if it's half-arsed it sounds pathetic.

[blueroyals]

That's because they play it when the players are about to kick off so nobody gives a fcuk. It's embarrassing when the players and ref are stood there awkwardly trying to start a game of football with that shit noise still playing.

They don't 'play a siren' it's part of the music the teams walk out to.

Watched the Swansea vs Oxford game on the telly, Oxford played sweet caroline after the game and the fans joined in like ours, for that reason alone we should stop it...

Also was it me or did the Huddersfield PA sound as rubbish as ours? I was listening on the radio and he seemed to be doing that stupid...

In at 1...
Number 2
Turning out for the Terriers, number 3!

Etc.

The Postman Pat tune being played when the big screen shows tweets etc is as bad as the PA Announcer

Is that why they were doing the Postman Pat theme? Whoever they put in charge of the PA System hasn't got a clue.

[Gordons Cumming]

I like Sweet Caroline and Ashes.

Takes me back to those winning times.................................................

Helps get through the bad times.

[melonhead]

love ashes
like caroline- its the repeated crowbarring in, to the actual detriment of atmosphere that gets my goat

[Haag Royal]

The current announcer is rubbish and treats the whole stadium as if we were all 7 years old (apologies to 7 year olds but you know what I mean).

And can someone ask them to turn the bloody music down a touch pre game? I like it loud but not so we can't have a chat to the people next to us.

I don't know why they got rid of the old announcer. Far better and knew what he was doing IMHO.

[biff]

New announcer is apparently on the mic at the Basingstoke Bisons, hence the absolute sh1tshow regarding "in the 7 jersey" b0ll0cks.

Republica, 2001 space odyssey, Kevin girdler, or phuck off you hospital radio cretins.

It wouldn't be toooooo bad if the fans actually joined in for it properly. Instead you just get it plod on boringly, before a few thousand people shout "do do do Sweet Caroline" before going silent again.

Sing the whole oxf*rd thing or don't sing at all you 'tards.

That's the best thing about the current "matchday experience". Postman Pat stays, everything else goes.

I sing the whole thing and everyone just looks at me like I've gone mad.
