In America, in College games, they sometimes announce all events. Including shots at goal.

Which can be hilarious when some donkey blasts way wide of goal and the announcer throws out:
Announcer: SHOT - UCLA number 5, Casey Anderson
Announcer: THROW IN - Maryland
Cue - Casey Anderson hanging his head in shame.
Brilliant.
Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

It's been suggested many times before, mainly for when the lineup is being announced at the start. Probably should give it a go some time.
You know we belong together...

I think we need to make something "our own" when we go through the starting line up. How about when they read out a players name, we do an animal impression?
Announcer: Number 1 - Mark Paston
Yellow Fever: *all make horns with hands* "Moo Moo Moo"
Announcer: Number 3 - Tony Lochead
Yellow Fever: *all assume meerkat pose, looking nervously around and occassionally clean themselves by licking the back of their hands and rubbing it on their heads"
I am not going to go through the whole team, but hopefully you get the idea
All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

Was a bit of a laugh on Sunday vs Perth. As the crowd started chanting "who are yea?" after the goal, the announcer kindly answered the question.

Any chance of adopting the model of the mighty Germany, whereby the stadium announcer says the goal scorer's first name and the crowd shouts their last name? Also, if it's an important goal - winner/late on - they repeat the name 3 times!
Makes for great atmosphere
I remember experiencing this years ago - went to an SC Freiburg game in the the 2nd division - was hilarious (at the time) as "Andreas ... FINCKE" scored a hat-trick
See - 18 years on and I still remember his name.
It works.

And people who come to their first game at the RoF will always remember Greenacre when he scores and 10,000 people sit around looking uninterested and don't get stiffies.
