I do. It's cringeworthy and in my opinion it flattens the atmosphere rather than adds to it. It was particularly noticeable when we scored in the semi and final last year and after a split second of unparralleled exhuberance, right on cue came Tom Hark and thousands of people stopped celebrating naturally and simply turned into performing seals.
Real atmosphere killed stone dead at the push of a button.
Leeds don't play music after they score a try and Headingley has argubly the best atmosphere in the league. There's a lot to be said for letting people celebrate naturally.

Personally I don't mind TH, as long as there is a delay. When it is played instantly, I agree with you, but when there is a decent period of time to celebrate and then they play it, it extends the celebration, and IMHO works well.
Either way, it wasn't really the point of my post!

because they haven't finished playing "Marching all-together" until 20 minutes into the first half.

That's possibly the most stupid statement on here for quite some time.

Forget any other people this is sung to, was this aimed at them because they were Welsh?
Yep.

| I find it ironic that Wire fans were disrespecting the Welsh national anthem considering that when I went to the England v Wales World Cup game at Old Trafford in 1995 all the Wire fans were cheering for Wales cause you had about 3/4 players in the team.
