Agreed. Need to get rid of that gimp on the decks and restore some order with an uplifting mix of 70s, 80s and 90s tracks that will delicately bring the atmosphere to the boil.I hate all the pre-game noisy PA idiots, and the overloud music, it drowns out any possibility of an atmosphere before kick-off.
The stand introductions are cringe, and so is playing "falling in love" before kickoff, cos that's also the song of several other teams.
I like Tigers burning bright on the way out, and Eye of the Tiger is timeless. Lets be cool and do our own thing
I recall we were playing Cheltenham at BP, and their mascot lost the foot off his costume and after trying for a while to slide it back on he gave up and pulled the top half of his costume off so he could use his hands. It was a bald guy inside, Roary ran up and used his head like a ball deodorant to rub his pits.Bring back the one and only Roary I say , I’ll never forget Hayes and Boxing Day at B’ferry Park LOL
So was I, and I entirely missed the Roary stuff. It's like being at Wembley and missing the Windass volley.I was at the Hayes game
I missed neither, thankfully.So was I, and I entirely missed the Roary stuff. It's like being at Wembley and missing the Windass volley.
I don’t mind the stand introductions and Eye of the Tiger is perfect but I just wish it was played louder and earlier so the crowd could sing it. My mates a Forest fan and he reckons Mull of Kintyre sounds ace when sung. I just said it’s **** and he’s a ****er but it gets their crowd going. Falling in Love? I can take it or leave it tbh.I hate all the pre-game noisy PA idiots, and the overloud music, it drowns out any possibility of an atmosphere before kick-off.

100% this and I’d like to see the return of the row of pale blue invalid cars around the touchline.Need to return the A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H, etc on the wall for the half time scores..
Love is for fools….You’ve maybe not met the right woman mate
Give it time
I was thinking about all the little 'bubble' cars at Boothferry Park the other day when I was up in Tescos.There was a bloke on one of these mobility scooters and it was probably bigger than the old 'invalid' cars...Huge it was, and of course he couldn't give a **** about the foot soldiers,ouch,toes100% this and I’d like to see the return of the row of pale blue invalid cars around the touchline.
Some of those “scooters” are like full-size Harley Davison trikes complete with panniers, ape hanger bars and mirrors. To be fair I sympathise with having to use one but the owners are usually ****s.I was thinking about all the little 'bubble' cars at Boothferry Park the other day when I was up in Tescos.There was a bloke on one of these mobility scooters and it was probably bigger than the old 'invalid' cars...Huge it was, and of course he couldn't give a **** about the foot soldiers,ouch,toes![]()
You wanna see 'em here where I live Ric, even got their own large garage where they all park up for the night.I was thinking about all the little 'bubble' cars at Boothferry Park the other day when I was up in Tescos.There was a bloke on one of these mobility scooters and it was probably bigger than the old 'invalid' cars...Huge it was, and of course he couldn't give a **** about the foot soldiers,ouch,toes![]()
I sometimes feel the “We’re East Stand” etc should be organised a bit better to get all 4 stands to take part in order and continue it for a bit. The South tries and the West just doesn’t get it at all.The introduction of the stands is a bit cheesy but its only trying to create an atmosphere.
Maybe better or even cheesier depending on how you look at it if each stand instead of doing a small cheer and clap got going with the "We're the East, we're the East East stand, we're the East stand Hull City"

I've noticed this before that the South tries after the East but the North often go for second bout at the same time
Absolutely. Plus Bovril from a little green hut for 2d. It was so hot the white plaggy cup melted.100% this and I’d like to see the return of the row of pale blue invalid cars around the touchline.
Reminded me of something in the Slow Horses book I'm currently reading (all of them recommended, and the TV series). Anyway, Jackson Lamb says something about there being a mystery, which means they have to answer the 4 F's - what the ****, where the ****, why the ****, when the ****?Love is for fools….
Lust is the force for life.
Live by the 3 F’s.
Find them
**** them
Forget them.
