Griffo Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 F*ck off. The day we get any sort of musical instrument is the day I don't set foot inside the stadium. Goal music is bad enough. You're on a wind-up anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colinjb Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Absolutely not. Leave the drums and stupid instruments for clubs that need them to give the impression of atmosphere, like Wigan and the Skates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wessex saint Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Well... do you remember the 4 piece marching jazz band at The Dell? They played real instruments and created atmosphere... Finished with a New Orleans upbeat version of OWTSGMI as the players came out. Inspiring. Or of course we could just listen to ear splitting volume cheesy house tunes. mmmm.. it 's a tricky one...

richardc Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 I watched the Swansea game yesterday and they played music for about 5 mins after each goal - totally killed the atmosphere absolutely dreadful idea - the yanks do it in there sports as they are so dull - we do not need to do it over here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corky morris Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 I know VFTT will remember this, but the only bands I want to see at SMS are like the ones we saw one dark night at Highfield Road Coventry. At half time The Selector, The Beat & Bad Manners entertained us with a few of the old clasic ska songs from the early 80's. That was top notch!! Other than that you can f... right off!!

Turkish Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 I'd like to see fans in the family area playing the recorder and the triangle. I think this will not only educate them as they were the instrument of choice for the discerning minor when i was an under 8 but also provide some much needed atmosphere in the chapel area. 3,000 6 years olds playing "your support is f*cking sh*t" and "you're going home in a hampshire ambulance" on the triange and recorder with their dads singing along would strike fear into the hearts of most visiting fans and prove we have an excellent youth policy when it comes to generating atmosphere. It's a yes from me for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pap Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Divided as this fan base can often be, I think the whole of the away support at Wigan were united in where they thought the best place for "drum boy"'s drumsticks would be. Hint: it wasn't in his hands or near the drums. Bands per se aren't crap, but any attempt to curtail the spontaneous nature of football support generally is. Could you really see the Official Saints Crowd Band coming out with recent terrace classic, "Jason Puncheon. He went for a sh!t"? On a similar note, playing a tune after a goal is small-time and I hate stadiums that employ announcers who sound like radio DJs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pele Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 No we don't need a band what we do need is all of the Northam end stick the away fans in the Chapel if you like!! We also need to improve the PA system which is awful and stop the music just before we come out so we can sing properly......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsland Red Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Not musical as I remember, but do you remember the Saintettes when we were last in the Premiership? A group of not particularly shapely, leotard clad girls forming human pyramids. Very bizarre ! We now have more attractive programme sellers !!!

um pahars Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 How to kill an atmosphere and any spontaneity - get a band/drummer in! and come to think of it someone needs to kill the music at the end of a decent match. We're all cheering,celebrating and singing yesterday, only to face competition from Kool & his fecking Gang! (I'd also knock goal music on the head as well).

Has to be the absolute worse thing about SMS. We need a new "PA Partner"! On that note didn't like the new clocks on the big screens (took too much of the picture up and was hard to see because it was sort of white on white) and what happened to the actual clock we were supposed to get? They've taken down the Omega one but haven't replaced it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Its a good idea imo, but doesnt go nearly far enough. What St Marys really needs is vuvuzelas, they should be issued free of charge at the turnstiles and it will be compulsory to use them throughout every match. Imagine the atmosphere then!!!

Bearsy Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 There has been talk of an official St. Mary's Choir.

Now they were entertaining, IMHO. The jazz band, leader in top hat and evening suit, always amused fans of both sides, and actually played 'the Saints' more or less as it should be played, and not with three guitars and a drum. The PA system at SMS has always been a bone of contention abetted by moronic 'Maestros of the Microphone' who seem to think everybody is on the Itchen Bridge, or stone deaf.

John Boy Saint Posted 11 February, 2013 Share Posted 11 February, 2013 Not sure a guy holding an eagle is that exciting... 2 That Eagle almost caused a comedy moment when we played there last Easter, the teams were being lead out by the Ref and his assistants as the Eagle was sent out on another fly past, being such a big bird on a short flight it had its flight plan for landing on the the other chaps hand worked out so it's approach arc took it straight towards the procession. The referee seeing such a massive bird flying towards him at suddenly took fright and stopped dead and the two lines of players nearly piled into the back of him and each other like pile up on the motorway!!

WokingSaint Posted 11 February, 2013 Share Posted 11 February, 2013 It would be great to go back to the days of proper bands eg military style, marching jazz bands American style and of course the wonderful Romsey Old Cadets.

Crazy Diamond Posted 11 February, 2013 Share Posted 11 February, 2013 Yes. Let's also bring back Tom Hark when we score goals and allow Turkish to sell foam hands outside the stadium.
