Oh yeah they are still spelling Wilshere as 'Wilshire' on the scoreboard.

I'd echo the annoyance of playing the Viking tune during play - it's both irritating and embarrassing. I even found myself involuntarily saying "oh f*ck off" in my own living room earlier when I watched the replay.

It's the same complaints every season (week even). They don't care and it isn't going to change.

I'd be interested to know what the sheepish looking lad stood at the back of The Shed with the microphone was doing?

I think he was recording the crowd for GMR, cos they had some sound clips of the crowd on before when reviewing the match along with fans interviews and the like. The Jodie Marsh of Salford RL King of the Shed was on surprise surprise, 'media whore, media whore.'

4. GET RID OF THE MUSIC AT THE END OF THE MATCH.

the fans want to show there feelings to the players by singing the prasies and not been drowed out by a bloody song for ten mins, there is no need for it.

Totally agree about this point. I was totally infuriated with the music immediatley after the game finished. What moron decided that this was appropriate when the shed wanted to show their appreciation for the team. If this is going to happen after every game then everyone will leave on the final whistle and the team will troop of the pitch to an empty stand. Sort it out!!

All points have been covered in the above posts so i'm not going to repeat them.

All i say is, Walshy, the topic title Brilliant!!

Different topic (sorry) But I did think the floodlights were brighter last night and it does seem that somE bulbs have been bought! With seemingly all the lights working

I just hope we don't have any power cuts that have seemed to occur these last few seasons. (Gateshead and Widnes games spring to mind)

I thought they'd made improvements to the tannoy! theyve just made it louder, blaring out roll with it when the players are coming off doesnt help

You have to admit though, playing 'Johnny B Goode' when Wilshere kicks is an inspired choice.....lol

I've said it before and I will say it again, play Brian and Michael about 2 or 3 mins before they come out, it will get the atmosphere going and it is something to sing along to. Then turn it off completely!

i agree
