ScoRoss 782 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Inspired by the New York Knicks, I'd love to see this replicated in football. No music (especially 'Goal Music'), nothing on the scoreboard/big screen, just football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn't you want to see replays and know in-game statistics? I meant more the 'entertainment' side of it. For example, they had 'Dab Cam' at the England vs Scotland game at Wembley.

Stan 16,493 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Leicester have recently introduced 'FanCam' at half-time. Mainly for the kids, to be honest. Think anyone grown up to be found 'dabbing' should immediately be escorted out the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit the bar is the best half-time past-time but then again is 15 minutes really too long to sit without getting bored? yeah cross bar challenge or something involving the goals is usually most exciting. Cheerleaders around NFL-in-UK is usually entertaining for various reasons... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoRoss 782 Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 For half time 'entertainment', Aberdeen normally have two small sided games with kids from local schools. That and a half time draw with a former player. Simple but does the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan 16,493 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Leicester sometimes have local school kids to a relay race round the outside of the pitch. Not sure they were allowed on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 10,631 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Goal music is just normal in Germany and part of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the home team score in Germany the pa announcer the shouts out and the crowd join in. I'm guessing it's the first name of the scorer and the crowd shout the second name, then it's the team name, Schalke for example and the crowd shout out the score, two, then the same for the away team?? Is that correct or am I miles off target?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some only shout the score and the first name of the scoring player, and then the crowd shouts the last name, and some do a whole different scheme. I'm glad that BVB's stadium announcer (who's a former player btw) keeps it short. Like here at the 1:14 mark. He only says: "43th minute of the game, the equalizer is here. Scorer for Borussia Dortmund, with the number 17, Pierre-Emerick" and then the crowd shouts Aubameyang. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storts 2,323 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Also we used to have great half time entertainment, the deckchair challenge, had to dribble round three deckchairs from the halfway line then score past Chirpy, and run back to the halfway line. Two attempts each I think - head to head quickest time won a holiday. Nowadays it's just Paul Coyte chatting to usually an ex player, generally they work for the club still and just rotate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
