Agreed...what a completely pointless thing to do. Game hanging in the balance, Michu through on goal and some tw*t takes the heat out of the moment by announcing how many people there are watching it. |  | | |

Agreed. It's making us look so small time, it was bad enough that it was 3-0. Especially now we have the lowest capacity in the league. |  | | |

I agree. It is cringeworthy in the extreme and makes us sound like a real bunch of small time country cousins. The announcers' enthusiastic tone makes it ten times worse, as if he's announcing that the club had discovered a cure for cancer, FFS. Just say it quiet and matter-of-fact if you have to say it at all. |  | | |

There's no reason why they can't put the attendance up on the scoreboard above the north stand at least then everyone in the ground except the away fans can see it. | |

Sounds like a great idea. Everyone can see it and we don't have to embarrass ourselves every game and give the away numpties a stick to hit us with. Or he could just announce "once again we've sold out" without mentioning any numbers. |  |

If we keep quiet about it no one will notice we actually do have the smallest ground in the league.
Only in cyberspace can selling out every week be classed as small time and cringeworthy (a good adjective for this thread by joyous coincidence).
I'd wondered what realms were left to discover for the malcontents of this world. The timing of the attendance announcement was something that would have crept into only the the most warped of minds. But then , when in Rome.... |  |

Can't disagree with that and if we'd have been winning 3-1 instead of losing 3-1 when it was announced there probably wouldn't be this thread.  | |

We should start singing in English accent, or there is a fair chance they will figure out we are Welsh. Then we will be in for it. | |

Great shout,I was wincing when the over zealous p.a fella was announcing it.Maybe it was because we were playing against the team with the biggest stadium capacity in England. |  | | |

Some great bending of the facts to suit your arguement there...no-one called selling out the ground 'cringeworthy'. What I said was that the enthusiastic announcement of the attendance was cringeworthy and makes us sound smalltime.
When we are on the end of a pasting, and hosting a club who regularly sell out a ground with a capacity over three times ours, what reaction do you expect from the travelling fans when our announcer comes on sounding like some Blue Peter presenter giving the Christmas appeal total and says the attendance is an amazing twenty thousand and seven hundred odd? Derision, obviously, and we hand it to them on a plate... | | | |

If you think trivialities like this make a difference then its your attitude thats comical, not the club | |

Who said they made a difference? If I find something irritating about my experience of attending the Liberty on matchdays, I think it's reasonable to air it on this forum. It's one of the reasons it's here, isn't it? Do you like being made to look like a provincial dickhead, then? | | | |

I didn't feel like I was made to look like a provincial dickhead because I don't feel like a provincial dickhead to start with. I'm guessing you cant say the same. [Post edited 19 Aug 2013 10:57]

If an innocuous event such as that makes you feel so inadequate, Id suggest the answers lie within. | |

There are no complicated issues at play here, just inferiority on a massive scale. | |

Can't see a problem with it, I don't have a problem with us selling having an attendance of 20,700. It's the highest in the Liberty era and people are embarrassed by it? I don't care that we're a small club. | |

If they have to make an announcement then lie ... "todays attendance is 45,690" jobs a goodun |  |
