The cunt on the mike sounds like that bastard who used to say: IIIIInn One' etc on Bullseye, only he drags each vowel out loooooooooooonnnger and loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongerrrrrrrrrrrrrr in that faux wiltshire carrot-crunching burr that he's made his own. Said before that he is a fucking embarrassment and makes us sound pikey.
The music celebration thing is just shit. I don't want the cg to emulate a plastic ground like the fucking Reebok, ffs.
It would be ace if we just did the basics right. Clear announcements about the teams etc, birthdays if they really have to, then just shut the fuck up, as someone else said. Music before and after the game. Drop the plastic / pikey elements and let the crowd create the atmosphere.

The crowd wouldn't make the atmosphere. And then people would moan about the lack of atmosphere

Music before and after the game. Drop the plastic / pikey elements and let the crowd create the atmosphere. I agree it's shit, but to play a bit of devil's advocate... I suppose with the state of the tannoy system there's not much he can do apart from to emote (fuck knows if that's the right word) what he's saying. So pretty much long drawn out words and shizzle to show the sort of suspense that he can't do with words that nobody would here. But yeah, at the moment we'd probably better off with nothing. Although if people could actually hear him properly then I reckon that there could be a place for someone who could be genuinely a bit funny and witty about what they were saying. As long as they knew the club and fans, joking about previous meetings between the two teams and stuff could be ok. As long as it wasn't over the top and getting in the way. Subtle if you will. |

Good shout FB. The wanker (I forget the fixture) who deliberately mis-pronounced Tozer as Tosser, is the sort of announcer we need. He's a cunt when you're an away fan listening to him take the piss out of your players, but if you're a home fan, you're going to be hanging on every word. |

Im sure the kids like it. I don't have much of an issue with it. Our fans moan about everything. Someone complained about the paintwork on the roof of the town end a few months ago. Who the fuck cares? |

I seem to remember Joey Beauchamps name being deliberately mis-pronounced on his visits to the County Ground. No one can be worse than Hull Citys announcer, he is cringeworthy. |

If they must do it then they should at least try to personalise it to each player and have a bit of a laugh with it like we did in the late 90's if i remeber correctly
Signing I I iffy iffy I

best announcer was the guy who said something along the lines of "I have seen some bad decisions in my time but that was fucking terrible!"  |

Never been wound up by an announcer as much as the one at Bolton, when we lost in the league cup semis. He just kept on about that ****** McGinley scoring, especially saying it was his 100 hundred league goal - we were playing in the cup for christ sake.

Ah Pete Lewis against Bolton I'm sure it got featured on the Big Breakfast the following morning. Ahhh.... the memories are flooding back. The ever dashing Gaby Roslin always ensured I had semi as I trotted off to school all those years back. As for the game in question was McMuck or someone sent off in it? I'm sure that dopey c*** Jason McAteer played a part as well. |
