DIPS Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 get rid of that awful band drumming and cheer leading shite. We're not American. Bloody embarrassing going to the 'bok. Glad they stopped that music which was played whenever we scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Thought it worked well. Did add a bit to the atmosphere, although that weren't upto much today from both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke_ Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 The flags looked good, it all adds to the match day experience. Complaining about flags should be the least of your worries. The football isn't exactly attractive is it, you need something that grabs hold of the youth at an early age. Although we will remember the game for losing in the 89th minute, alot of the younger fans will remember how good the stadium looked when the teams walked out, and hopefully they will want to keep on coming.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted January 17, 2009 Site Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2009 I'm with Luke on this one. If a few of the kids; who possibly only went to see a United game; now have a flag and decide they want to grow up as a white instead of a red then it's a great plan and great timing.

I'm with Luke too, my lad is 9 and loved but but 30 year blokes "fighting" over flags like I saw..... That was the point I was making. I been feeling like sh!t all day maybe its rubbing off on my posts. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombwfc Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I thought it made us look like a small time club having it's yearly cup final as United came to town. The flags did look good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Another good effort by the club and the flags will probably come in handy for away matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
