Crowd Etiquette

[nebakke]

Not all noise is good noise, otherwise we could just get the Stadium to play this over the speakers

Heh... At least their noise is human generated and "supporting" the team...
But then again, what makes you the arbiters of what is good noise?

Don't get me wrong, a little bit of devil's advocate here, but to be honest, there's a small part of me that thinks that, as long as they're not abusing anyone, be happy that someone other that us is supporting the team, rather than being annoyed that they say stupid stuff... God knows a football game seems to attract people who talk before they think, irrespective of these guys... May as well learn to live with it.
I mean, it's not like the chants are defining points in art history either

Better?



A bit more seriously, you make a fair point, but a bit of whinging online won't hurt.

Maybe the people will learn a bit more about our style of play, the game in general, and that you don't have to be hoofing the ball up the field or scoring with every kick for it to be a good one as they get to a few more games.

[dibo]

Oi. If you're posting, you'd better have that open and playing in another tab, because otherwise...

In fact, if he doesn't listen to the whole thing...

my wife is all self conscious now.....she is sure it is her you are talking about.
In all honesty, so many people do this, were all just backseat drivers as far as I am concerned.

LOVE IT!

Maybe we should have a chat to Pete about hooking that up to the new bullhorn, see if we can out-noise the RBB when we play them again...

But yes, I think there's that, give them time to learn... There's also that bit where people get excited and blurt out whatever to get stuff moving

So you heard the whole 12 hours

 

[sydmariner]

Yes

Well it's been 12 hours already

 

[dibo]

No idea. If I'm not watching at the ground in watching on fox.

CoastFM - Support local but ABC not bad either

 

[eenfish]

Not sure as I haven't tried to tune in for years. Which do you recommend?

I thought Grandstand might have decent commentators, but they have no idea what they're talking about and depends on whose commentating they might throw in AFL/NRL terms constantly. At least with CoastFM there is a Central Coast focus which is good for us, plus they show some proper enthusiasm, so I'd pick them.

The one time I listened to the ABC grandstand (can't stream coast fm at work, and since we were playing the roar it was live on local abc radio up here) they had Lawrie as a commentator. I was probably one of a handful of people in Qld that could have understood that commentary.
