loonylatik Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I quite enjoy the atmostphere the drummer gets going during the game, but when we get a corner the COME ON OLDHAM used to be a lot getter than the Drummer drumming and then OLDHAM ... You know what I mean. Can someone have a word and get him to learn more songs ..............Please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what I mean. Can someone have a word and get him to learn more songs ..............Please Think quite of few, like me, are sick of mentioning it ........... love the away days as he's usually not there. I suspect many people's dislike of the drums stems from this particular issue. I still shout com on oldham!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedOwl Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 There were no chants on sat at all. No atmosphere...except a slightly hostile one towards the players after we were losing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Ritchie Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 The Come On Oldham chant used to be to encourage the corner taker to land that ball on the first defenders head. Now we are skilled enough to do it with every corner the chant isn’t as important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yard Dog Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I personally like the drummer and it think it helps with the atmosphere BUT I really wish he would keep quiet when we take corners for this reason...it's tradition to shout ''C'mon on Oldham'' and he's ruined it. Other than that Drummer boy, keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snookmeister Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 The only problem I've got with the drummer is that he drums too slowly. Most people give up the "Carnival de Paris" (I think that's what the song is called) tune after a few bars cos it's so slow. It was always sung quicker pre drum.....

This leads me to think several of the following may be true: We sang more then so that at least away fans heard us There were more of us then We got a lot of corners when I was a lad Orrrrrrr We enjoyed them more because we occasionally scored from one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
