X-Factor Reds or Kop Idol - it's the future!
When applying for tickets they must stand in front of a three person panel and at least sing four songs, with two being at least classics, poor scouser tommy and Liverbird Upon My Chest should suffice.
Excellent idea Huyton Red
When I was at the A.Madrid game last week, I was getting very frustrated at the lack of people around me not singing, in fact at one point I turned round and said in a rather loud voice "come on you miserable bas**rds, sing will you"
I just got a blank look
There was a row of young lads in front of us in their late teens/early 20's..............not a peep hardly from them all night.
What's wrong with people
One of the reasons I love going to the match is that I can have a good old sing, I can't believe that you can sit there when there are people around you singing, clapping etc and not join in............FFS what's wrong with them
I think when you first get in the ground you should say to everyone around you...............you are going to sing aren't you ? shame them into joining in.
Are people embarrassed to sing?
I don't know what it is or what the answer is, but I get well and truly pissed off with it.
Those photo's you took JD? where they actually whilst the game was in progress? Cos I saw someone sitting eating a bag of crisps, people texting on there phones, and some looking decidedly bored.
I tell you what, when I've driven 100 miles to watch my beloved Reds, paid £38 for my ticket...........I'm going there to bloody well enjoy myself, join in with ALL the singing and not leave before the final whistle, or disturb others by going out every ten mins to get a drink/something to eat/or the bloody loo, and not coming in 10 mins into the second half either
And I tell you something else as well, there is absolutely
NO EXCUSE WHATSOEVER for anybody not to know the songs these days.
