Awful PA Systems.

Why is that with todays technology as regards sound and audio nearly all clubs have a terrible PA system.

Clubs have had all summer to sort it out but Worthings was awful Wokings was a litle better but the anouncer went so fast that you coud never make a note of the teams plus didn't announce any substitutions. This all goes towards customer comfort.

Withdeans reproduction of sound isn't much better or rather wasn't.

The PA system at Welling yesterday was terrible but one thing that did make us all laugh was when a shout over it was made that someone owning a black ford escort had parked up shooters hill (and that is long and steep) had left his handbrake off and the car was slowly running down the hill. 10 minutes later he just said the car is now gathering pace please would he owner go and stop it.

Made everyone laugh :lolol:

it didn't help that 3 of the players had never played before and had foreign names - it was impossible to right them down

The PA system at Port Vale when we won the championship I seem to recall was like a disco, shame they all cant be like that.

Personally I believe that the PA system at Withdean is ruined by the two clowns operating it, Paul Samrah screaming down it and Atilla playing his oh so trendy music that no one in their right mind has ever heard or even likes :angry: :angry: :angry:

I have to say I sort of agree as Samrah shouting over the tannoy trying to get the crowd going is embarrassing. It is so cringeworthy and the away fans must think we are a bunch of muppets having that happen.

Away fans have a good enough laugh at our stadium so the last thing we need is to give them another easy target to take the piss out of us for.

Even worse was that they specifically requested at the Swindon game that Samrah make his way to the press box so he could do his bit before the second-half of extra time.

Why we need him to do it is a mystery because it never works.

Albion & England forever.

I doubt the PA system will have changed much when we finally get back to Withdean. It really it s***e but I doubt whether the club are interested in doing much about it at present. They will be too busy - I hope - looking to strengthen the squad for the coming season.

:rolleyes:

PS. And, anyway, we don't want to disturb the peace and quiet of the Withdean residents too much do we.

:ohmy:

Never heard of the music that Attila played? Where were you living in the 70's and 80's then Ernest ;)
