I noticed for the Aberdeen friendly that instead of either Brian Cole or Charlotee Richardson as pitchside announcer we had Sky Sport's Dickie Davis (not no that one!) which I thought was a bit odd. Do we know if that was a 'one off' or a more permanent fixture. As 'professional' as he was, he did lack passion or feeling. Anyone know?

If Brian Cole is gone, does that mean the crossbar challenge is gone too?

I can't imagine a "full time" sports presenter/reporter becoming our match announcer. I assume Brian was on holiday, and I think Charlotte is working on the women's World Cup.HRBryan said:I noticed for the Aberdeen friendly that instead of either Brian Cole or Charlotee Richardson as pitchside announcer we had Sky Sport's Dickie Davis (not no that one!) which I thought was a bit odd.

Haven’t Sky Sports ditched a load of its presenters. Think I read that Bianca Westwood had gone so maybe Dickie Davis is part of that cull?0

Just asked my son who does the music on matchdays and he said....."don't have a clue". But Brian Cole will be back on Saturday. Nothing mysterious he says - probably just on holiday.
Son also says that there has been a request from Holden to have Valley Floyd Road played just before the teams come out (and before RRR) and definitely NO Addicks to Victory.

I saw a different half time challenge on YouTube the other day. Someone kicking the ball from the edge of the penalty area towards the half way line with the idea of trying to get it to stop dead on the centre circle. The YT clip showed it being done - but is harder than hitting the crossbar I would have thought.Leuth said:If Brian Cole is gone, does that mean the crossbar challenge is gone too?0 -
Red Red Robin sounded really loud on Saturday. Is it always like that in the posher West Stand, where they have new fangled kit like loud speakers, or are we in for this aural treat wherever we sit in the ground now?0

No way , it’s been the highlight in recent seasons , as we do the impossible and manage to find someone worse who can’t kick a ball for toffee , we must have the worst footballing supporters in the world , a proper parade of shitnessHal1x said:

Makes no difference who announces or what is played if you are in the North Upper. You can't make out a thing.
Its probably a good thing, but I had no idea what Addicts to Victory sounded like.0 - Sponsored links:

I see you took up the option of the premium seat offer, the cheap seats had it played on a loop in Dolby atmos 😉throughthickandthin said:Makes no difference who announces or what is played if you are in the North Upper. You can't make out a thing.

If we draw or lose a single game this season and I don't hear Theme For Great Cities as I file miserably out, I'm contacting the club4

I only discovered that banger thanks to Charlton, so the last 10 years haven't been entirely wasted.Leuth said:If we draw or lose a single game this season and I don't hear Theme For Great Cities as I file miserably out, I'm contacting the club0 -
It's just we turn our hearing aids to maximum in the west upper.1

Mull of Kintyre needs to be played at x3 speed to be in line with how the upper north sing it2

The bloke against Aberdeen was poor. When announcing the players he lost a lot of first and second names when looking away from the microphone, and it was too quiet what we did get.
Not impressed that he couldn’t get the basics right.0
