ok so I recall this from last year, but should we do the Nix team announcement where everybody shouts out the surname (apart from Daniel) or are we still at the pub when they are naming the team (or would there be too few people to start with)
I have a clip here that I videoed at the Romania v Italy game.
thoughts?

It only works if everyone inthe crowd knows all the players, and knows what's being done.
It would take a bit of effort from the YF to get it started and get everyone else in the stadium to join in, but I think it's worth the try. One problem with doing it in NZ is that people here traditionally turn up late, so the crowd is much smaller when the line-ups are being read than once the game actually started.
It's also pretty cool when a team scores a goal and the announcer begins by saying the scorer's first name, and crowd completes it by yelling out the last name. But again, I think this would need a bit of time and patience to catch on here.

Hopefully this season we will coordinate to leave the Bencher singing en masse so should arrive there in time for the players introductions (I managed to be there with beers in hand for almost every games team sheet last season).
We have proven that the voice of a few fever can be heard throughout the stadium (and clearly on TV) so it would only take a concerted effort at the first home game and it would catch on to those who wanted to join in.....

Fair nuff. I think last season there was always talk of leaving BB together at the same time, but never happened though.

We need some sort of alarm in the BB that goes off at a certain time before KO.

What if we arranged a Phoenix bikini clad hottie who appeared at the Bencher (with me) to tell us all it was time to depart and off she skipped down Kate Sheppard Place.....
Would she possibly have the Pied Piper effect.....?

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

To paraphrase a quality TV show, that would be hotter than three rats fornicating in a sock....
