AW said in his post match that he thought the stadium was flat before kick off, IMO theres 2 reason for that.
1. Most people already know what drivel we are going to get served up.
2. That god awful shite song we walk out to, made even worse now weve put our own 'spin' on it and the songs pre that. Get something on to get the crowd pump up and ready to go.
You go to decent away ground and they got the atmosphere buzzin b4 kick off
When the new version of the song was played I did say it was way better than the horrible dirge of the original...but it's starting to grate a little. And we can't even get the timing right each week so the teams walk out at the same point of the song.
For the enthusiastic young lad on the music duties...look at your crowd fella. Get back to the pub rock. Leave the grime and the techno-shite for your ride home. If they want the crowd bouncing, give them something to bounce to! note:nobody bounces to sleep-inducing Oasis. Ever.

People talking about budgets are brilliant
people like Mahoney, Barkhauzen , Canavan , MJ Williams , Ben Jackson , Harper , Walker all must be playing for free after they dropped down from bigger teams. Stop buying into the budget tale. Yes it’s not the same as Notts County & MK Dons but we are not paying peanuts

Agreed about Oasis, Anything else is better than the shite we play now.
Whings a defeated man IMO, he needs to go

Agree about the walk out song, it’s getting a bit cringe now, need something like the stone roses, all across the sands (didn’t they reputably play at the cross bar once, swam, got sick, and vowed never to play here again) used to be a decent indie scene in Barrow back 20 odd years, or just any song with more passion.
Not that we get anything like a Newcastle crowd, but listening to Blayden Races gets the hairs on the back of the neck standing up, but if we’re not getting the results, the general buzz is just missing.

Dr. Feelgood Roxette or Milk and Alcohol should do the job.

Yeah you're probably right. We need someone with a lot of experience in the mold of Rob Kelly. Just can't think of anyone suitable. Hopefully Mr Wood has got someone in mind.

Given some of the songs suggested above, the existence of a barrel must be in some doubt.
