    Stop it now...............I'm getting fed up with agreeing with you!

    He's be fine with a three of Phillips, Vargas and Zarate behind him.

    Not if you are watching the tv. They place the microphones so that the big clubs fans sound best and loudest. When both halves kicked off all that could be heard was the Arse supporters. The same thing happened with Manure earlier in the season (actually that was even worse). This is the crap marketing that we have to suffer.

    I'm amazed. I thought the home crowd were very loud last night and we didn't hear the Arses till they scored from our end.

    It sounds like a conspiracy theory

    Not conspiracy, just the tv people and the PL wanting to sell their brand. 90% of the population watching all over the world would be supporting the Arse. It makes their viewing experience more pleasurable hearing Arse songs.

    Have you any evidence to back up that claim, Totally? I would presume the TV company place the microphones in the same places regardless of who's playing

    Same place?
    No, of course I have no evidence, but it is always the same. When we play the likes of Burnley you can hear that the ground is rocking, but not when we play the big teams.

    This. We've been louder, but the Gooners were inaudible.

    Have to support Totally here, not with the conspiracy theory, but the Arsenal supporters were heard on the stream I was watching far more than The R's fans, I actually thought HQ was a tad quiet, but it could be down to the positioning of the microphones........

    That's strange. I was in the Ellerslie Road stand close to the half way line and I thought we were totally out sung by the Arsenal fans.

    To be fair, the acoustics in the Loft are biased very much towards the home support. The opposition have to be outstanding to be heard from the top of the Loft. Southampton have always been good recently.

    Maybe the Arse had some kind of amplification to help them

    I was underneath them and it sounded like a small gathering of mumblers

    That's amazing. I was in the Ellerslie Road stand and I was quite impressed by the noise that they were making whereas I thought we were very quiet.

    I didn't hear Arsenal until they scored here. Fixed that with the volume control. Shame it doesn't do foot manacles.

    We sounded good until they scored then again when Austin scored.

    I sit in SAR towards the away end and the opposition fans are pretty much always louder to me. That doesn't bother me as much, though, as the numbskull Rangers supporter that sits directly behind me. I'm moving seats next season.
