Why no Nonny Red Army?

[Allen]

Not at KO or start of 2nd half
Why?
Anyone know?
Looks like another own goal to me.

We were saying that just before kick off, as much as I like the Hollywood stuff, I think it kills the atmosphere before kick off and you can see in the tunnel cam how it doesn't fire the team up like Kanye and The White Stripes.
I thought the fans in the North Stand were brilliant to keep that Ireola's barmy army going towards the end of the game after such a depressing effort from the lads on the pitch.

Should the home crowd be relying on a man who has been dead for 3 years for a spark in inspiration and atmosphere or should they perhaps consider being creative by themselves and produce some noise without him in the future.

I'm not sure if this is advocating that the club should ditch the Nonny vid, but if so I'd disagree. At the very least it does no harm, but at best it keeps the legacy alive of a fan you couldn't help but like and who almost all of us looked to to raise the noise levels when the atmosphere got sterile. Like others, I hope they just couldn't fit it in after the silence.

Lol, tbf I expect most owners would. That's a very significant amount of money when yiu consider a box costs around 60k a season... 12 people per box.

The big 6 don't even charge that much for a box.

Economies of scale.

Economies of scale.

Boxes at Chelsea start at £90,000.

 

[Hoof_It]

We could do with Nonny right now.

 

[Mossy1]

I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that the club doesn't really give a toss about anything but money.

Taken this long to come to this conclusion?
It started with the st's womens matches ,and slowly but surely extended to all areas of raising funds.

Anyway I'm glad I got my club's sponsorship email on Friday, that started the weekend well.............

Is that a window box Stan? London prices eh!

I would have thought the announcer could have said just a few words about Gary O'Neil, e.g. "a warm welcome back" or something.

Seemed a bit graceless to me. We have a lot to be grateful to GON about.

Why on earth would we do that, we don’t even announce the starting XI of the opposition anymore.

You're right, Spurs are pretty much giving seats and packages away

New Spurs stadium: Photos, details & costs of premium seats and boxes in ground

It's certainly going to be an experience for visitors to the new stadium

This was 2018!!!!

Because he was a very important figure in our recent history. Maybe the club doesn't care about our history, our heritage, much anymore.

Did we do it for Eddie Howe ?

Dunno, but we should have done. We should always give a warm welcome back to former heroes and legends.

 

[DJ]

Neither would have wanted it. They have their new fan base to entertain and keep onside.

A warm welcome back for heroes and legends yes ....but not when they are with the opposition

It was nice to give Junior Stanislas a round of applause.

Ffs he was here now he’s gone!

There’s an supposed afcb fan podcast wetting itself over O’Neil if you like that sort of thing.

Graceless would seem to be apt more generally given the way in which our club is behaving towards its loyal fan base.
