Singing v Bahrain

I think security would understand as long as your not standing the entire 90mins,or going too over the top. Its more strict at nix games because there are those defined areas,and both are perfectly open to anyone,so behaving like you would in the feverzone in other parts of the ground you are a little out of place.

Security has no common sense, they're more interested in starting fights. I was doing security at NZ v Aus Chapell/Hadlee series game in Chch a few years ago, in the Tui stand, fans were having a great time but security were so far up their own arses it wasn't funny. Great view for me though

Am I the only person who cant stand Miles's song and is hoping that no one sings it.

I too believe that the security would enjoy starting fights, most of them are "scrappers" anyway. They'll just bait until someone throws a punch and then all 10 of them will intervein....cowards!!!

I don't think you should expect to be able to spend the game standing up anywhere but the White Noise zone, sing and chant absolutely but you will need to be seated.

I reckon BOPMan has pretty much summed up the whole "can i sing, if I'm not in the zone?" angst

[/QUOTE]Hmm, no offence. But do you watch non 'nix A-League games?
[QUOTE=Victory fans]We're the North end, we're the North end, we're the North end over here... Anyway you can imagine how the second bit goes :P To be fair I've been to a couple of Melbourne games, but it always seems to come through well on the telly as well.

For those of you not in the Zone, best of luck. We were asked by security to sit down in the 90th minute of the Galaxy game. No joke.

Are there any chants that work across the stadium?

As mentioned earlier, I picked up two tickets before I even knew there was a white noise zone. Will be two of us looking to make some noise up the back of Aisle 27 (although this seems to be by the Westpac boxes so not much echo), anyone else going to around there?

What is your name? I'll yell out to you from Aisle 30 ;)

I'm Rob Stewart, will be there with my mate Will. Up in Row P so we'll see if we can get things going. Will be a great view but in the more expensive seats so hopefully won't be surrounded by people just there to be seen.

Haha I was kinda kidding about your name. I just needed to know to yell out "Rooo-ooobb", and get your mates to yell back at us haha.

But yeah I wonder what we can get going.

Also, are Mexican waves considered lame these days?

Someone needs to make a ROF Etiquette FAQ!!

This is a HUGE game!

given that Mexican waves suggest that standing up and sitting down is more appealing than watching the game, i'm guessing that they aren't likely to do much to help our side lift it's game and get us to SA

Haha, once again, it would be so cool to have a bit of a cheat sheet for those that don't know what usually happens at these games :p

that's just my opinion, other folks might not agree with it

I reckon with the stadium packed to the hilt there will be so much noise that just about anyone will be able to start up a chant.

The trick will be how quickly it gets picked up and how long it will be sustained. That's where WN will have the advantage over other groups as it will have the hardcore who are familiar with the chant and the mass to get a good volume going.

It works well in the nix games with FZ doing the biz and the rest of us jumping in after the first line or two.

If others want us to be quiet they will have a very unsatisfactory evening (although the only counter will be that with nix games on 4 and 8 Nov I'm not sure how match fit my voice will be for 14 Nov).

Quote from the Barmy Army -

We're on the left side, we're on the left side, we're on the left side over here...

We're on the right side, we're on the right side, we're on the right side over here....

You are the convicts, you are the convicts, you are the convicts over there!

We did "You're the convicts over there!" and "We're the Phoenix over here!" away to Melbourne this season.

In working up a slogan for the banner I want to create, I discovered that there are HEAPS of words in the English language that rhyme with "Bahrain".

Here is a list of many of them:

Does anyone here have any thoughts on the intended banner slogan of:

BAHRAIN'S PAIN, ALL WHITES' GAIN

I need to finalise something in the next few days in order to have enough time to make it so I'd really appreciate help. This is posted elsewhere with no response so far.

Mexican waves at football   They usually mean everyone's lost interest in the match.

C H A N T

Please don't take this the wrong way, but ban.

Purely because I f**king hate that song.

Thats because you have never heard it played by a ukulele orchestra!

Just imagine RoF with 35k ukelele.

Oh the atmosphere, the intimidation! It would paralyse the opposition and whip our lads to a patriotic fervour.





Or not.

Nothing rhymes with Ivan Vicelich...

lol

is that a bolton chant?? WARZYCHA2009-11-02 16:34:01

You'll probably find all clubs have a version. For me it's a Brighton song about Gary Hart (with tart being the rhyme in the second line).

true posh spice is an obvious target....haahhaha

Ricki was asking me at the airport this morning if we've got some new songs lined up!

 if so, I hope hear lip reading skills are as god as yours SiNZ  

Probably not - but it is the time honoured tradition when a camera is pointed in your direction!

Just watching "Balls Out: The Gary Houseman Story"..... tHow about 35,000 doing this chant.... would be easy.... :-) Moose2009-11-03 00:06:06

haha we should do the posh spice one, that would aide us with the power of confusion!!!
