I have a vague recollection at the start of Super League we used to do that, with Stevo calling the players out on to the field individually....

The current way makes no sense, especially if the game is not televised. The players line up for no reason, at least if it is on TV the camera can pan down the line past all the players from both teams.

“At last, a real, Tory budget,” Daily Mail 24/9/22 "It may be that the honourable gentleman doesn't like mixing with his own side … but we on this side have a more convivial, fraternal spirit." Jacob Rees-Mogg 21/10/21 A member of the Guardian-reading, tofu-eating wokerati.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_755.jpg

About as annoying as when the announcer gives each of them a nickname to go with it. And then the name of the sponsor. The nicknames tend to get dropped when a team starts losing more than winning.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg



Quote: ploinerrhino " who ever decided this has never had a tingle down their spine .'"


Ooh, saucy!

T' Steam Pigs had at least one season when the players came out individually to their own self chosen music. It took forever and exposed an incredibly terrible taste in music.

I think the nicknames would get better after a run of defeats, 'butterfingers', 'turnstile' and ' for brains' would make a decent front row of nicknames! Bring it back!!

But I agree, bring the teams out one at a time, no music, just the crowd noise. That would intimidate a few, especially at the grounds like Cas where you're right on top of the pitch!

Indeed. It was painful. Only lasted a few games, if I remember rightly. The margin meter of its day.

There's Only One F in Wakefield:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_2334.png



Quote: tigertot "It was great at the old Odsal. Players walking down the terraces from the old changing rooms through the crowd, stinking of sweat, beer & fags.'"


Interestingly enough, that's the same smell I experienced walking through the Wheldon Road End 2 weeks ago. icon_wink.gif

I hate the modern way, it totally ruins the pre match atmosphere and build up etc.

there was nothing better than booing the opposition onto the field and cheering your boys onto it, the atmosphere built up from that. these days most people are just sat down waiting for the game to start by the time all the standing around looking bored and confused is done.
i appreciate it's for the kids etc etc but it's e!

Perhaps a bit disrespectful but a few years back I remember Trinity playing music to suit the away team when they ran out. eg Salford ran out to the Coronation Street theme.
I'm sure someone could have a bit of fun with that concept.

Yeh I think the build up to the teams coming out should be more dramatic. I would like 'hungry like the wolf' played at some point for wire games.
