Please get rid of it. It's bloody embarrassing. And the view must be shocking.

I thought it would perfect for todays match.
Highlights how most of Football fans sit on an armchair / sofa to watch a game via Sky now5 -
It's going to be returned when the sale at DFS finishes.2

If you were picked out from the crowd to actually go and sit in it would you take up the offer?1

No chance. Just another ingredient in the melting pot of things to hate at the moment. A fucking sofa? Cheerleaders? No identity anymore. Very rapidly losing interest in the club I love.CAFC Luke said:If you were picked out from the crowd to actually go and sit in it would you take up the offer?

I am sure I saw the occupants of the sofa today looking down the side for loose change.1

Doesn't embarrass me or annoy me.
It just does nothing but that's the point.
It doesn't make us money or bring more people in.
It's a pointless gimmick.6 -
Went to to a LA Dodgers game last night and got some ideas for KM:
- Get three fans and on the pitch, they choose a coloured hotdog in a car and whoever gets the loudest cheers wins the race on screen and a pair of shoes
- Get a fan to guess what a player is drawing on the big screen and win a hat
- Get a fan to name as many pizza toppings as you can. If you beat the player's attempt you win beer
- Get a fan to guess the nominated player's favourite cartoon character to win a lounge pass
Great one off event and decent atmosphere but the whole "fan experience" thing was horrible.
Also, one of the interim inning questions was "What year was 'Glad All Over' released?" And they played it for two minutes. Threw my foam hand in disgust.25 -
I think it's very embarrassing.
What is the point of it? The fans looked proper pillocks too.0 -
It's not that bad, I think the cheerleaders are worse.1

Agree, much worse.Charlton Road James said:It's not that bad, I think the cheerleaders are worse.

Perhaps the cheerleaders could wear loose covers, anti-mocasars as headwear, and use cushions for pompoms and really help promote the sofa.2

You lot don't know how lucky you are. I've now got to go and buy myself a new outfit for when I appear on the sofa at the Brentford game.

Wear a bofa costume!2

Seeing a human sized cigarette watching a bunch of cheerleaders on a football pitch was way too much brain power for my hangover this morning.4

How do you get picked? Can't believe it is at random as all very 'safe' choices so far.
Is it a bit of a 'who you know' carve up?0 -
Next time, they'll dress someone up as a pink elephant for you.cafctom said:Seeing a human sized cigarette watching a bunch of cheerleaders on a football pitch was way too much brain power for my hangover this morning.

Ridiculous. No room for a poufee.3

A lot of Liverpool fans and are all tuned into Sky sports and so was I waiting for our highlights. Then there it appeared...in its full glory. honed right in on it whilst commentators made some jokey comments.0

It isn't as contrived as that, but there might well be a bit of prior planning. There is, at the moment, a limited range of places that the cameras can focus on, so people chosen will come from those areas. Sometimes there might also be a bit of a look around for possible candidates before doing the sofa choosing section. How much, I couldn't possibly comment.AFKABartram said:How do you get picked?

So it all gets sorted just before KO then ?
That's a shame, I'd need a couple of days to get my props organised.1 -
We were picked at the Huddersfield game from the crowd. My son's frantic waving did the trick and the rest is history as they say.AFKABartram said:How do you get picked? Can't believe it is at random as all very 'safe' choices so far.

Will put a different spin on watching the game and fully intend to enjoy the day. I just hope that Lifers can find it in their heart and forgive me for "selling out" like this.6 -
I was offered the chance to sit on there after a twitter competition, somehow I never made it onto the hallowed leather.AFKABartram said:So it all gets sorted just before KO then ?

No, not sorted, but there is a sort of script for people to follow. There always is when filming. Make sure you are sitting in West lower, probably near the North West, or, on other side of North West in North lower. And catch BDL's eye at the right moment.AFKABartram said:So it all gets sorted just before KO then ?

If we can solve better zooming of cameras at a reasonable price it might all change and bring in other parts of the ground.0 -
I have to confess we cheated - my son is cross eyed so was able to catch the eye of both cameras simultaneously.henrythecat said:
