The video is great. The first showing v Stevenage got a great reception before the lads came out. It’s a good piece of work, we just need a real walk-out tune to follow it up. Ignore the misery guts folk Justasmithers. Agree totally. And once the PA system is sorted, it will have a bigger impact |

I don't know. It's all about money. Does the Piece Hall hold 20,000 people? As mentioned the PH holds circa 5k but it won’t be able to attract the huge acts like a 20k stadium would. I love the PH and have enjoyed many gigs there but it has a limit to who it can pull in. Deffo room for the PH and the stadium to hold concerts, and why not have two great venues locally rather than traipsing to Leeds or Manchester? The Piece Hall is magnificent. An under-appreciated piece of architectural brilliance. If it was in Surrey the southern “set” would be creaming their pants. |

What happened to the flame throwers or whatever they’re called as the players came out for kick off.
I thought they were a great addition, shame they weren’t there yesterday

And once the PA system is sorted, it will have a bigger impact And until that’s sorted, it’s a dreary video 🤷♂️ I’d can it until the sound is sorted. It just sounds like a drunk man having an incoherent argument in the distance. |

We have to factor in the hyperbole that comes with the new ownership too. For example "Wait till you see whats in store...be prepared to be excited" noises doesnt really marry up to me with what ultimately is some nice murals and a dreary pre match video that saps any energy out of the game before kick off. The ‘nice murals’ and ‘dreary video’ have taken a lot of time and effort. Obviously wasted on some but have the decency to appreciate hard work even if it isn’t your thing. He/she doesn't seem to see anything positive at Town, every post** seems to be a negative of some kind. ** Just how it seems, maybe I've just not noticed the positive posts. |

He/she doesn't seem to see anything positive at Town, every post** seems to be a negative of some kind. ** Just how it seems, maybe I've just not noticed the positive posts. I think you've perhaps just not noticed, the negative stuff tends to get emphasised as if you post anything vaguely none positive, it tends to attract attention from lots of people who can't be doing with anything that paints Town in anything other than a golden shining light, and that gets responded to, usually with abusive vitriol or ridicule, which means it ends up in a longer 'conversation'. Anything positive tends to attract a "yeah, I agree" type thought only, so is a fleeting moment. I post what I see in the moment. -The video is pretty much a waste of time as part of the pre-match build-up AS THINGS STAND. -Bojan did look very weak from day 1 in spite of some nice touches and an obvious finishing ability. -If we can get him fit, Balker does look like one of the top 3 or 4 defenders we've had in living memory. -Wiles has been a let down and has NOT done enough this season to reflect the massive amount of  he's attracted, and HAS demonstrated that he's still weighed down by some of the negative traits he has which is part of the reason he's floated between League 1 and the Championship for so long. -Donal McDermott WAS rubbish, and it was obvious from day 1. and I'll be more than happy to post in the future that - the video is awesome now we can hear (and hopefully see) it properly, and feeds into some kind of decent uplifting music. - Bojan has put some effort in to get up to speed with the power and strength needed at this level and I hope to see him bag the 10 goals+ that his finishing could easily deliver - Balker becomes one of the top 3 or 4 defenders we've had in living memory. - Wiles delivers, consistently, for a period, and goes on to become a top half Championship player with us. - Donal McDermott WAS rubbish, and it was obvious from day 1. We all want the same thing here....excellence delivering results. I've not seen that excellence so far this season, and Michael Duff AGREES with that - is HE negative? We've played well in ~50% of all the games (which is a huge improvement on last season). Thankfully the results are still coming. |

It'd be really good if the smoke generators were blue and white next time, as opposed to just the white smoke 👌 |

What a biased perspective, if you'd like mine it would be the reverse, i.e. the negative is excessively argued, repeated & those who contest it are commonly ridiculed, while the positive is barely supported in comparison & those who do are commonly ridiculed. |

Has anyone heard any more on the indoor fanzone that was mentioned earlier in the year? It was discussed at the ATT on Saturday morning. Construction very much underway - I would expect info some time in the next couple of weeks but that's complete speculation. |

he's attracted, and HAS demonstrated that he's still weighed down by some of the negative traits he has which is part of the reason he's floated between League 1 and the Championship for so long.
