Show a bit of respect and class

[Bell4]

Our stadium announcer , not announcing the opposition players before kick off - I know it’s been mentioned before , but come on - show a bit of class . Our club is enough of a nut job as it is without making it worse . We’re quite happy to take £38 a pop from them .

I blame the board

 

[Guesty]

It's very poor form, I don't know what's behind the change this season.

 

[KoppedOff]

Especially when the internet connection in and around the ground is so bad. At least put it on the big screen for a minute. Even if it’s out of pettiness, it’s not just the away fans who want to know who’s playing for the away team, is it?

 

[GodricBlade]

I might be wrong here but I thought he’d started announcing both teams earlier in the build up & then repeating ours just before kick off.
Like many, I’m rarely in my seat until 10-15 mins before kick-off so miss their team announcement (if it happens). Be nice to know who’s playing against us but at the moment, it might cause even more concern than there is already.

Also I may mention the booing of BBD when he was subbed,we have some right scum amongst our fanbase. Please give me a decent reason why that should even happen ?

agree

the clapping of Brewster was worse

Agreed. There is no decent reason. He did his best for us. His first spell was better than the second. But that doesn’t warrant any boos.

Yeah I was thinking that, its really odd. I know many away fans know the team news anyway via their phone or whatever but its bizarre. Plus I would like to know the opposition line up as well.

That surprised me too I have to admit. He was being a bit 'in your face' during the game that's true but he plays for them now and that's his job! The bloke did alright for us remember!

Yeah but many away fans are not in the ground 30 minutes before the match.

It's poor from the club and there is no need for the change at all.

 

[SUFC Guy]

Booing Brewster and BBD was just cretinous. I'd love to hear the reasons why from those that did it???

And while we're at it, SHOW WHO'S BEEN SUBBED ON AND OFF on the screen please! As you say some of us like to know who else is on the pitch.

 

[Guesty]

Brereton-Diaz was a complete bottlejob at Wembley, that might be part of it.

Brewster got far more cheers than boos around me.

BBD mark II was clearly unfit. No way should he should have entered the pitch at Wembley imo.

 

[Bladesman]

BBD mark II was clearly unfit / no way should he should have entered the pitch at Wembley imo.

He got clattered at Wembley once he was on the pitch. I remember a Sunderland player nailing him not long after he came on the pitch.

You're probably right - even at the time I was aghast that Rak-Sakyi wasn't in the squad.

That said, ducking out of the tackle on the touchline (ironically leading to injury) was very poor.

 

[Grey Blade]

It's not unusual for me not to know who's in the team before they come on the pitch - home and away. Often at away games the team is put up so briefly that it' quite difficult to take in - especially if there've been several changes. Relying on the phone at Bramall Lane is pretty hopeless at time

 

[Large Mendonca]

Yeah I remember that well enough, but imo he wasn’t fit generally, even before that incident.

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

agree

I just watched him jog past us,he did very well out of the club,had injuries,well liked I hear and not his fault he was paid an astonishing wage. Another huge football club mistake,and we are still carrying on that trend. The shit will hit the fan at the end of this season.

 

[Bladesman]

Also, going off an on a tangent I thought it was disrespectful last season not to announce Hecky's return with Preston.

The man is one of very few managers that have got us promoted to the Premier League, I am not even sure Sinclair even namechecked him. With what he had to put up with as manager at the time he deserved something.

The Gary Sinclair show.

He never even mentions Wednesday's name either.
Reading half time scores it's always like...

"Norwich 0, Preston 1"
"West Brom are winning 2 nil"

All a bit pathetic

Didn’t clap either but didn’t boo either. They’re just footballers who now work for someone else. Big deal .
I have no axe to grind with Brewster none of the issues with him were his fault. BBD was never our player so why the issue?

Uneducated yobs. Unfortunately society is full of them.

I’m absolutely OK with that

Because coked up knuckle draggers walk amongst us

Which he should at least have been booked for! Awful challenge

 

[Gin&Juice]

Just fuck him off now. The man’s a parody and a throwback to warm beer and cheese cubes on cocktail sticks. Part of the reason the club will never modernise. Everything needs gutting.

 

[Grey Blade]

There is no reason when the vast majority of modern day players have played for multiple clubs. The days of 'one club player' have gone.

Having said that I find badge kissing a bit nauseating as well as being an empty gesture

And when we're playing them he'll say "Substitution for our visitors.."

 

[Cheets]

The other thing is announcing the away team followed by the home team used to ramp the atmosphere up for both sets of fans before kick-off, and if there was a returning hero/pantomime villain in the visiting line-up it would all add to that.
