ant Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 We've never struggled with atmosphere and/or limbs after a goal. So it just seems unnecessary. Kinda crushes the genuine reaction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osvaldorama Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 Properly tinpot. Takes away from the crowd atmosphere and probably inspires the opposition more than it does our team. Scrap it immediately 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wsaint Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 It's a bit of fun I'd say the majority of the stadium join in on, it lasts like 15 seconds if that, you can still celebrate in your own way whilst also having the music play, why must we bitch and moan about everything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintwbu Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 Our home atmosphere has been crap for years, this doesn’t make it worse, arguably it makes it better because people carry on making noise for a bit after the goal celebration. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceandfriendly Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 Properly ruined my day that did, hearing a bit of music after we scored. The chants the crowd sung were cringey too, wish people would just be quiet and keep their voices down. A silent 0-0 with no music, noise or any kind of fun is what I dream of at the football. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 Announcing the player of the match during the game winds me up more.

Badger Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 Immediate response is to agree with the OP. Don’t like it, just Americanising the game for no purpose. Have to agree that it’s ‘foam hands’ , crap, really naff, tinpot, and ‘noddy’ even. Taking my miserable old bastard head off for a minute though, three positives: 1)it does seem to be enjoyed by a fair number, young and old in all sections of the ground 2)Vastly better than when they used to play ‘I feel good’ 3)It must really get on the away fan’s tits, standing in silence having seen their team concede to witness the nauseating spectacle. ( For that purpose alone I was quite content with it yesterday thinking how it would wind those gobbier cunts up). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thereisonlyonemickychannon Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 It is a very clever way of control. Stops certain chants being made by the crowd. Also played at the end of a match. Total mind control sheeple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 We (many football clubs) have been playing ‘goal celebration music’ for decades now, this is nothing new. In the Burley seasons we used to play I feel good; I distinctly remember that because about a week after James Brown died, it randomly started playing on the PA, whilst the ball was in play. Anyway, if we’re going to play anything, I’ll hang my hat on Kernkraft 400, it’s a great tune and a proper stadium anthem. Not exactly American either, Zombie Nation are a German techno ensemble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the boy from saints Posted 27 August, 2023 Share Posted 27 August, 2023 (edited) Normally I'd be anti it but for some reason, I'm enjoying it so far! We get a chance to properly celebrate the goal, then after around 10-15 seconds it comes on and feels like a chance to act like a dick and enjoy the moment again! Especially if you're near the away supporters! Edited 27 August, 2023 by the boy from saints 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
