Numero Uno Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Not to mention “Necko” Williams on the bench for Forest!! He did eventually get his name right when he came on but it doesn’t half come across as tinpot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree.....its just white noise that follows deafening music that's played to the point of cracking. The whole AV / Media set up at AG is cringey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole AV / Media set up at AG is cringey. They were fiddling with the music level (for the Dolman anyway) prior to KO last night (it might have been quite early as I was there at 7:10). Turned it down to pretty tolerable then straight back up to bloody unbearable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 One thing I only realised last night that is utterly bizarre, why do they blast whatever is happening in the half time ‘entertainment’ through the speakers in the toilets? No one can see what’s happening, and even if they could, no one needs to hear Downsy screaming at the top of his lungs commentary about the apple race thing.

Bobtherobin Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Who cares? I dont remember walking away from the game thinking that the stadium announcement ruined it for me. Im sure all of the people having a pop in this online pile in dont make mistakes, but most others do make quite a few, and thankfully most normal people dont worry about it. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhombrecito Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 It's his Robins TV stuff that annoys me the most, as he is hosting a football show when he clearly knows absolutely nothing about football. A few games ago they had Naismith and Wells as pundits, and one of them happened to mention 'being brave'. Downsy then proceeded to spend the entire half time analysis asking a a variation of questions on being brave as he had literally nothing else to add, or any kind of analysis himself. He should stick to rugby which he is passionate, and no doubt, knowledgeable, about. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The volume actually in the stadium is too loud, you cant talk to your mate next to you most the time as it is absolutely deafening, and i'm not even old! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
