Nay, I say. I actually enjoy hearing the players and coaches yell and interact.
Canned crowd noise during Corona - Yay or Nay?
- Thread starter Top
- Start date
No fan noise, bring back Fergie for a few weeks and enjoy
.Was expecting this to be quite cringing and not enjoyable, boy how wrong was I! For me this is soo much better than nothing or just hearing the managers and touchline talk which just couldn't feel anything more than a training match to me. For those who are skeptical of it - give it a try - whilst not quite the same as a normal matchday experience - it really does improve the coverage of these games for me and makes them feel competetive.
Gets a yay from me. And I usually hate any kind of change in football. I guess I hate piped in crowd noise less than no crowd noise.
Why don't they get an orchestra and make it like a film?
I played this
while watching this
and let me tell you, it takes football to a different place

I think it makes a big difference, I forgot the Bayern game was BCD earlier.
Man of culture
Yay for me, anything to bring it alive a bit more
EDIT I’d also like canned generic chants like the referees a w*nker and you fat b*stard!

What's wrong with just watching it for what it is? Football is football. Couldn't give a shite who's surrounding the pitch.
Anyone seen that Red Dwarf season they did without the canned laughter?
It just wasn’t the same

Nay
I was quiet surprised how good it worked at the Bayen game yesterday. Also the large banners of crowd images covering the empty seats was also a great idea.
With no crowds at football for the next year or so, they will have to do something.

Freudian slip?
What’s the point in playing football matches behind closed doors anymore when the streets look like this?
The streets don't look like that though.
I like it, I can deal without it too but it definitely sounds better. Might as well give people the choice.
Was sceptical before I sat and watched the Bayern game yesterday. Surprising how effective it was at making it feel like a proper occasion. So many football camera shots actually don’t have the stands in them.

Big yes from me, if you don't look at the stands you can't tell the difference. Hearing the players screaming and shouting just sounds lame. Like watching a film on mute, it's just flat.
You can still prevent further spread by limiting crowds but yeah the rules have been undermined (this happened before these protests).What’s the point in playing football matches behind closed doors anymore when the streets look like this?
No. No. No and Naaaaaaaaahhhhh.
Dortmund game felt creepy and fake.

We should definitely use it, I’ve mentioned it before but the canned noise in the NRL sounds really good
Mark my words one of Lingard or Pereira would thrive with the absence of a real crowd
Not a fan of it tbh.
it just doesnt fit with the rhythm of the match and you can tell it’s not authentic.
the singing keeps happening even if a shot happens or there’s a foul or a goal
maybe to the average viewer it helps but it doesn’t bring anything more to the match itself.

Home crowd cheers and sings.
It will be fantastic.
Just let the fans in, we've beaten Covid-19.
Covid could still win
It’s better than no noise.
Agreed, watching in silence is unbearable
Yeah why not give it a try
Not for me, that IS football but maybe that's just because I've played it for years as an amateur.
Hearing coaches/players is perfectly normal.
If they could make it feel "real" then I wouldn't mind it but just canned background noise isn't any better than a distraction IMO.
Enjoy the silence
Tbh, I was surprised at how reactive it was in the Bayern vs Bayer game. It obviously wasn't a real crowd, but I thought it kept up with the game pretty well.
I liked hearing the players communicate in the Bayern vs Dortmund game, but it gave it the feel of a training match or a pre-season friendly not the title decider it proved to be.
It's imperfect, but I think does add a lot.
Better than nothing. Don't see the negatives.
All about the crowd noise for me guys, our last game confirmed that to me. Nothing more than a training game without it
I really, really liked it watching Leverkusen-Bayern tbh.
It makes me feel less aware of why it has to happen.
Think all clubs should do it because empty stadium sounds are awful.

I did the same but I think that's part of why I don't want to watch professionals and hear the same noises. At the end of the the day, it's entertainment and there's more entertainment in hearing crowd noise than there is players and coaches shouting at each other whilst it echoes around an empty ground.
They should just play vuvuzelas really loudly as that way it will be the same as the World Cup in that everyone will just mute their tvs and watch the game in slience
It's fair enough, a bit like shit FIFA maybe?
I'd prefer to listen to the players and staff's voices now that's it's actually possible to be honest, it probably won't happen again for a hundred years.

Fecking dogshite the canned crowd noise is. Nay.
I hate when clubs play music when a goal is scored so fake crowd noise? No thanks.
