TPAFKA Jersey 2 4,226 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 I think he's cringeable. I admire the intent but it just doesn't work. It's not like the old days when the announcement of every player's name was greeted with a big cheers. its embarrassing listening to him doing the big let's get ready to rumble thing, only to be greeted by silence. Not for me I'm afraid. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jolly_Boy_John_87 32 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 Makes a good change having some decent music. I like how fans can now put forward their choice of songs for half-time. The atmosphere is becoming quite good at games. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djchapsticks 9,240 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 Campbell has definitely done the right thing in turning to staff and supporters to play the songs pre match and at half time. The choices on Saturday both by Jack Ross and the fans at HT were fantastic and right up my street. Ocean Colour Scene, Stereophonics, Rage Against the Machine. Was great! Clearly this won't be the case every week but that's just fine, nothing wrong with a bit of variety. Was a dirge for the longest time being able to set your watch to Call Me Al and Anything Can Happen. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reilly was having a good laugh when he was announced as the scorer when he and Smith were running back for Falkirk to restart the game. Smith was like "Whit?". 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There as a similar mix up on a few places, not just at the game. No big deal. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You were wrong FS in predicting he's shite posts plural. Looks like I appear to be the only one who didn't fancy it (not I repeat that I said he was shite) Happy to accept that I appear to be on a minority of one on this one. I feel like Shull. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drew 21,116 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 I quite enjoyed the boxing style intros. Its a bit tongue-in-cheek, and not to be taken too seriously. The goal scorer announcement had us scratching our heads briefly, but it's hardly a big deal, FFS. The new guys are finding their feet, but I already think they are a breath of fresh air. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
