It really is awful listening to half the crowd shout 'Forward!!!!!!!!!!!!' at every opposition pass in the middle 40 yards of the pitch.
Although it does help drown out stevo and edie a little bit I suppose, every cloud has a silver lining.......
Given the fact you were watching it on tv i'll explain something which no-one else seems to have bothered.
As the Sky studio (at Saints this consists of a few sheets of metal siding, some 2 by 4 and a sheet of perspex on a scaffold gantry) and subsequently the microphones are above 'popular side' where the majority of noise at Saints comes from you will always hear shouts such as 'forward' pretty loudly.
It is the main reason why we have, in the past, been fined so much for bad language at Knowsley Road after being on TV.
Every club shouts the same things its just sometimes it is much easier to hear during TV broadcasts. The clan mentality at sports will always see people jump on the bandwagon upon hearing one person shout forward/offside.
