ScoRoss 452 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 9,010 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScoRoss 452 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 9,010 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Storts 1,741 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
