It’s weird how the club have this  condescending “we know best” attitude. A while ago a few people complained about the goal music being too loud/wank, got in contact with the club via email and their response was, [paraphrasing] “actually some people think it’s too quiet, but we’ve noted your feedback and will review it at the end of the season.”

 

It’s like the fans are getting in the way of their ‘matchday experience’ rather than the other way round. 
 

Football crowds turned up in numbers and enjoyed themselves for well over 140 years before goal music & tshirt cannons.

Cup games have brought a real mixed bag in terms of different fans to the regulars and their behaviour. As @Bert outlined, and I had at the Watford match, several just go to be as unpleasant as possible. On the flip side you get a lot of kids making a real racket and really enjoying themselves which is great.

 

The drug use is very concerning, we need to stamp that out quickly.

Re Cocaine. If lestah oiks are tearing into the stuff you can be assured it's not Miami's finest. Cut with all sorts, the mental health and physical health of these chaps will be on the floor in a few years especially if combined with booze as the combination is very dangerous.

 

Have a word with yourself if it's you.

 

And don't blame the government, much as I loathe this wet con-lab colourless abomination it is all about the personal choices an individual makes and if they can afford to drop fifty squid on a gram (am i showing my age?!) then maybe the levels of disposable income in middle England are just fine.

 

Funny how MDMA ended hooliganism and cocaine is bringing a different problem! 

Rant over, don't shout at me.

If only there were dogs that could be trained to sniff out for drugs. Or laws against drug taking and an interested police force

The problem that boils down to though is the fact that joe blow (no pun intended) going the game with his mates and doing drugs isn’t the problem for the police. You arrest someone/ban them etc they’ll be someone else take his place and do it the week after. If you really want to tackle drugs/drug taking its starts much higher and quite frankly this countries approach is old fashioned and cock eyed to say the least.

They won’t get rid of the goal music as so many people sing along to it. Watched on tv last night and it’s embarrassing how many people actually join in with it. Club will just see it as everyone likes it when this is certainly not the case lol 


It’s a self-fulfilling policy though. 
 

The music is clearly designed to attract the sort of numpties that like it, who then populate the ground dancing along like morons to it when we score. 
 

I always used to think the music was a dodgy decision by some flunky down the food chain, but based on what is said here is clearly part of some grotesque matchday strategy…

I keep harking back to the title winning season and the way pretty much everyone in the ground would sing along to Hey Jude just before kick off. Proper goose bumps. Now the music volume makes my ears cower into my brain to seek relief. 

Brentford Away was a great throwback with our fans absolutely belting it out. Drowned the home fans!

In P there were actually kids (I say kids, I mean younger than me - probably still actual adults) singing and celebrating the goal music without goals. 

 

It was great to see them getting involved and enjoying themselves, but I can now see why the club think that a lot of fans think that goal music is a good idea.

I’ve said it before, the niche on this forum don’t offer a wider scope to our fan base.
 

The other night, I had loads of kids around me, singinf and jumping around to the music when the goals went in.
 

They’re the future fans of the club and it’s that demographic the match day entertainment is targeting. With the expansion looming, by giving away cheaper tickets now for games like this week, they’ll entice a new generation of supporters and income streams. 
 

Like it or not, it’s here for the foreseeable and it’s part of the changing landscape of our club.

You don’t need goal music and clappers to entice younger fans.

goal music being too loud

 

Fvcking EVERYTHING is too loud. I'm not sure the exact moment it happened but some time about 18 months ago everything pre kick off went up in volume by a good 60% at least. 

 

Its been awful. 

 

I've spoken about my dad on here before, he's legally blind, he's also quite deaf and it's been pretty much impossible talking to him once we're in the ground before kick off. He can't hear a word anyone's saying because the PA system is so overbearingly loud. It's insane. 

 

For anyone hard of hearing its got to be intolerable. 

 

Edit: just go be clear, no amount of crowd noise is ever too loud. We go home and away, I've been in away ends with him where (as much as it seems like a distant memory now with our current support) the whole end has been up singing and it's still never been too much. The PA at the ground is 10x louder than any amount of humans singing/chanting could be. Its horrific.
