Carbone Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I think we should just play it on loop over and over for the full game. There aren’t any regulations stopping us do this are there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they have relatively little importance overall BUT it’s these small things that make the experience that bit slicker, more professional and to some more enjoyable.

Mus Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Comparing the start of our games to those I watch on TV there seems to be a lot of 'faffing about', we always seem to be late kicking off, so whether the club have been told to smarten their act up i'm not sure, anyway it wasn't the same without it.

In the valleys, in the coalmines, in the bath, down the pie shop. Least ways they do in the old black and white films I watch on satellite TV. And are they still all called Davies Jones Williams and Morgan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolsterstone Owl Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 It's the little traditions that are important. Hi ho at 2.58pm. Goal down after 20 mins. Hutch booked within half an hour. 8 mins injury time whenever were 2-1 up, etc. It's the Wednesday way. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semedo's ferret Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) Was farcical pre-game. Rubbish music that was changed couple of times part way through, walk out music out of sync, no Hi ho silver lining, slow and late team announcements that ran into ko time. Then for us to lose the tos and kick wrong way! Ya just don't recover from that. Edited February 11, 2019 by Semedo's ferret 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
