The first time I heard this done was by the German fans at the Euro 96 final at Wembley. The Bayern fans did the same at the Champions League Final in 2001 (and didn't take kindly to me and a mate shouting for Valencia while they did it).
A couple of Arsenal fans I know have said the replay is on Tuesday 18th -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of JONATHAN WYNNE Sent: 09 January 2011 11:16 To: [email protected]; Ian Murray Subject: Re: [LU] Leedslist Digest, Vol 7, Issue 28 Thay do that all the time at Arsenal, even bisecting the names of (overseas) players who only have one name, a la Denilson. The kind of cheesy razzmatazz I'd be ashamed of if I were a Gooner. --- On Sun, 9/1/11, Ian Murray <[email protected]> wrote: From: Ian Murray <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LU] Leedslist Digest, Vol 7, Issue 28 To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, 9 January, 2011, 10:48 "What was the team announcement all about yesterday. The stadium announcer called the players by their first names. Odd stuff." Think the idea is the announcer says the first name and the notoriously partisan and loud arsenal support does the rest! What a great day! Unlucky not to win. I though we'd lose five with Howson and Johnson in midfield. Great to be wrong and great to be Leeds! I filmed our penalty on my phone.
