The trumpet blows!

[jpmariner]

i will start with the norm.....I.M.H.O.............


the fact since returning this year i have been sitting in bay 17, i understand my opion is rather more humble then ever but.

seriously the trumpet stinks. im sorry to the kid who blows so hard but if your reading this it aint what the marinators need. the constant increas in pitch and speed with some of the chants on sunday did nothing but harm the effects.
id like to hear the opion of some of the more experienced lads as its the first time ive noticed it and as im not so up to date these days i dont know if its been tried and failed befor?
it just semmed so amateur from across the bay, a lil try hard infact. I aint at a cat empire concert im at the footy.

a couple of quick positives though. the long rolling chants are brilliant, with the drums making up for a lil lack in voices about the place.pretty impressed really with the difference from season one(my last) till now. expected though i guess, but none the less impressive.

Apologies for all spelling and grammar*

Sometimes the trumpet is good, but agreed that it does hamper some chants.

Join us in the bay tonight doorag!

P.S F*ck Cat Empire

All we need now is a triangle and a conductor  and the marinators will be better than the london symphony orchestra

Keep the trumpet

Stick it up your ass if you play the last post again

 

[Bear]

Cat Empire FTW

Yeah, you know it

as long as its curbed in some description................free range with lips like that and the kid could ruin everything.

The trumpet was the only thing you could hear watching the game against wellington on the tellie on the weekend.

deffinately not a good thing.

I reckon we get rid of it, i went down to the front of 17 for a little bit last game to see what is was like, and honestly, the trumpet was annoying. Cat empire ftw!

What do people think about the bagpipes ?

 

[Bear]

BAGPIPES FTW FTW FTW FTW



Might have something to do with my fathers fathers fathers fathers fathers father, cos I love the pipes

 

[Ted]

Not a fan of the trumpet or baggies myself.

 

[jpmariner]

i think the man behind the pipes makes the difference. never over does it. dont know him personally but i think he does alot more for the atmos then the horn.

trumpet has its moments. shouldn't be overused. I'd rather he kept playing it than starting 'let's go mariners'. yes mate I started a new song over that last week because everyone hates it.

 

[jpmariner]

way to boss the bay dude. i cringe with the majority when that chant gets started. reminds of the time my mum wrongfully took me to see the kings in about 94...........i liked the N.B.A. mum!

trumpet is just over done. an over-used novelty. it has lost its novelty factor.

as for the pipes... the guy just rocks up every now and then, everyone is like 'yayy... pipes!' and then he sneaks off. its perfect.

worst chant is by FAARR 'you fat bastard you fat basted'. the keepers are tall and skinny! they need to move around in the shower to get wet!

 

[FFC Mariner]

No trumpet tonight and bay 16 was rocking............

No coincidence methinks

 

[Jorome Alexander Bennett]

Whistles, trumpets, drums can all be forces of evil.

A good blow job = heaven.
A bad one can end in blood. Nasty.

Wellington is OK 'cause you can replace "fat bastard" with "sheep shagger", and "Aaaaaaarghhhhh" with "Baaaaaaaahh".

With more witty suggestions like that for other teams, or if a keeper really is fat, then IMO the chant has more meaning.
