Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but according to the Standard we will be asked to wave our mobile phones aloft to create a son-et-lumiere in time to the Champions League jingle. Further, the ladies team and "fanbassadors" will be handing out glowsticks and the like to add to the atmos.

My views on all this are curmudgeonly in the extreme. And I can't imagine the men's first team on hostess duties at a women's match. Anyway, will anyone here own up to being a fanbassador? And will you all wave glowlights when asked? Just to check, because if so I can tell my children to watch for me on TV, the single spot of darkness on the fifth tier.
:D Sorry this is just the first thing i thought of reading this.

I do agree though about the glowlights , that's a bit over the top but i will keep an eye out for the dark patch somewhere in the stadium.

This is one of the reasons I dislike Wembley. Forced atmosphere bullshit.

The end is nigh gentlemen! See you all in league 1.

They would be doing the same if it was at WHL.
It's about corporate marketing, and looking good to a wider TV audience.

I agree. It's the end!

It is not the end. It is the beginning of the end. The end times bring cheerleaders, and they are dressed in the national costume appropriate to whatever route Air Qatar is launching that week. And if you don't join in with the fun then you don't get loyalty points.

Nothing wrong with cheerleaders :).

There should be 'spurs song books' under each seat. Then the stadium announcer could tell us what and when to sing...:

"if you could all turn to page 8 for 'Arsene Wenger is a Paedophile', and a one...two...three"

I personally don't care and don't think it's a big deal at all

If they want to give me a glow stick or whatever shit tomorrow I'm happy to do my part and help the club's plan for whatever visual effect they want to promote on tv

I will probably be pretty drunk by then anyway

Wow, the Dortmund fans are amazing. I love how they all get behind the team to display amazing imagery before the game.
