The New Ora Stand Band Poll

should we have a band again in the ponty end?

Just a simple yes or no

 

btt

 

We need one

It might make more noise than the 200 odd Southend fans did last night.

 

Keeley Hazel Could Play The Trumpet.......

because she is good with wind instruments

 

No. It's too Wendy-esque.

I'd rather have no atmosphere than have one forced on me.

 

I aint paying to hear a bunch of idiots banging drums! nt nt

 

I think the song goes...

"you can shove your fecking trumpet up your arse"

And I mean it quite literally. NO NO NO to any sort of band. What a load of ballax.

 

**** off ......

.... worst idea ever and ruined many an atmosphere in it's short-lived time, not to mention the band members being threatened with violence if they didn't shut the **** up (just before they thankfully packed it in).

If we go down that road again, put it behind Shepherd and his mates in the West Stand, let them listen to the racket whilst they are trying to think of some more feeble excuses for why we are in freefall, for those of us who are from 'outside of the game' and know nowt!

 

Go ******

Fake idea. John Dennis ought to have that fcking drum shoved up his arse for inflicting that on us.

 

It would have happened if they had been ......

....... allowed to carry on much longer

 

RE: It would have happened if they had been ......

I watched with glee the debate between the band and Cuz !!

 

Yes, it was building up a long time before ......

....... his lid finally came off!

 

It caused a bit of a ruckus at Everton Away i seem to recall

they were playing near where i was sat and a few large gentlemen shall we say took objection to them being there and told them so aswell

 

Noise pollution of the highest order...

...did they appear for the West Ham game in the prem? I remember it caused a near riot in the Ponty End bogs!

What we could do with is a social club under the ponty end where people can have a pre match pint and engage in some singing to carry forth the atmosphere to the game.

I know Manchester United fans who go to the Bishop's Blaze pub adjacent to Old Trafford and songs get "tested" in there prior to games by a chap called Pete Boyle. OT does have a pants atmosphere and the songs do end up being carried forward to the terraces.

Saying that most songs/chants do end up becoming Barnsley songs at away grounds. Burnden Park the first airing of "Just like watching Brazil?" etc... Probably because away fans have had slightly more to drink?

A song section on here would be good start.

 

RE: Noise pollution of the highest order...

I think that's a good idea mate, lets start a song thread and introduce a variety of new ones. Not that I can think of any, am pants! someone else will have to start!

 

Yes, they arrived first game in the Prem ..........

........ they were a pain in the arse, couldn't even play and if John Dennis wanted a frigging band he should have let them play in his earholes instead of ours!

 

There was nearly a ruck at every game that .......

...... they turned up at ............ it got to the point where we waited for them to start a song, then we started a completely different one!

It didn't help that they were a poor mans version of the Wednesday band, and they are crap, and to top it all, everytime I go to an England game I seem to get them pillocks sat behind me banging a drum in my ear!!

 

Well we need someone to hum the great escape then

or do you all want to join me and Gaz in the comb and paper band

 

I think the funeral march would quite apt at this time

Championship Football RIP
