Tell me ma, me ma...

 

We're going to Italy, tell me ma, me ma!

 

That was brilliant!!

 

Even the East Stand was bouncing during that nuts first 25 minutes....  tons of people standing and singing!

As been mentioned, once the 5 goals had gone in and everyone had caught their breath, there was a 5-10 min spell where everyone was talking to one another about wtf they’d just witnessed. 
 

You could hear a collective “chat” going on, it’s not something I’ve heard before. There’d been no chance to discuss any of the goals up to that point as we’d just kept scoring another.

 

I don’t think either Bruno or Joelinton were trying to gee the crowd up, I think they were just joining in. The looks on some of our players faces after some of the goals was pure rage.

PA guy needs to get in the sea like. 
 

He fucking announced stoppage time in both half’s when we were on the edge of the fucking box. Use your brain man. 
 

I didn’t like him announcing the full score either. Bit small time that.

 

Less said about DJ Otzi the better.

How the DJ can be so out of touch is beyond me. That's the man u game and spurs where he's ruined the vibe with that shite song. If Wilson scores there's a part of me that cringes at the thought of that idiot playing that shite. You would have a point if Wilson had scored a screamer or a last gasp winner but not the last goal in a hammering FFS.

As for the atmosphere, wouldn't it be great if we could get something going either pre match or toward the end where the Blaydon Races is sung by the whole ground at full voice, in unison and at a slower tempo. What a sight to behold that would really be. Say what you want about forest and their Mull of Kintyre but I think it's class.

Had an interesting conversation for ambiguity only with our flag wavers.

 

Basically the club are approx 4th in priority when controlling our match day build up. EPL and Sponsers and broadcasters lead the way in the musical build up including what is played and when and for how long. Plan to challenge this with the NUST at next meeting but in all honesty it’s all totally believable when explained.
 

For those on the same page regarding reduction in music/volume it has been requested but out of “his” hands.

Thought I’d repost this to hopefully answer the last few posts in here ?

My opinion on music at the game changed after the morose Bournemouth home game where the lack of music definitely contributed to the miserly mood (I was formerly of the view that no music might be a good thing).

Yes, it's a fair shout, but it's also worth considering that the silence comes from the expectation of deafening music. Maybe given a few games without music, fans would learn to fill the void?

Who’s responsible for the volume of the music, if not the announcer/DJ? Cant be sponsors etc surely, other grounds don’t seem to have music as loud as us... we shouldn’t be playing anything at all during full time imo, aside from perhaps (at lower volume) the wild theme version of local hero, due to its melodic, low key (but damn beautiful) style. (Side note, I believe this can be heard during the lap of honour at the end of the 99/00 season)

Just had a flashback to the announcer shouting “BRUUUUNNNNOOOO” in a really cringe and camp way when announcing the team :lol: 

 

Even that feels like it is timed wrong and it’s announced too early. It’s quite a bit before kick off and seems like a lot of fans aren’t even in their seats or in the mood for chanting and getting overly excited 15 mins before KO.

Did Alan Robson used to do the announcing or is that purely something I've created in my head from seeing him at the Shearer signing unveiling?

Whilst there may be some external factors who have a say in the build up music, I refuse to believe there's mysterious evil dark forces at work behind the scenes who insist he turns the volume up to 11 and plays DJ FUCKING OTZI at the end of a match

 

He's a shite announcer / DJ. He needs to either learn from his mistakes and use some common sense in his future selections, or pack his bags, slip into his red coat and go back to hosting mini-disco's at Butlins
