Both times it happens, there wasn't any chanting.

I don't really mind them trying to get the crowd engaged in other way. I'm not really a fan of it, but I'm just 1 of 7-8K people there. I'm (we the Fever) are no more important than anyone else there. I don't think it worked for substitutions because the game restarts quite quickly. Think it suits injury breaks better when a physio goes onto the field and the delay is longer.

I agree, although often the crowd are actually interestied in what's happening on the field during injury breaks - especially if they are serious, so starting a "eeeeeeeyo" chant using the big screen might be a little inapproproate. Football isnt the same as rugby with big breaks for lineouts or scrums and the crowd is generally more actively noisy than a rugby match so there is no need for additional music from the announcer. I'd prefer it if they focussed on getting their basic role right before trying to drum up noise ie getting the players names correct.
The timeing was weird too as he continued the queen clips into the 80'th minute which is generally when the Fever fire up. This ground announcer celarly needs to work on his game a little bit, timing is everything. If he is trying to drum up noise then he shouldn't be using his speakers and video screen to drown out the usual noise the fans are making. I note that the fever fired up when he did it a second time.
