Sky Sports Crowds - Audio crowd sounds

[Robmc1 4,741]

Wasn’t sure how it would turn out when I heard Sky were implementing this, however having now watched some of the televised matches in both modes, Sky Sports Crowds does makes the difference from watching what could be an no atmosphere training match to the (imo) best way to view a bcd game. In fact, once I got tuned in to the match It was easy to forget it was bcd (well as long as you blank out the empty stands anyway:-)... Thoughts...

As an afterthought, on the upside for the Scottish game it seems like celtic have a head start on everyone else re this in already having the (well used) banners for covering half + their stadium seating with...

Yeh it’s fake but brings as much normality and atmosphere as you’ll get to watching a game on tv with no crowd. Not ideal but better than listening to the players shouts echoing through an empty stadium...

agree tbh, it gives it something. The first couple of games in the Bundesliga were really boring to watch without it.

Lost count of the amount of times they played Blaydon Races at the Newcastle game

Well I suppose in the current climate it’s a bonus it’s not Camptown races🙄...

An Everton player absolutely went right through a Liverpool player for the most blatant foul you'll see and they had the whole crowd booing the ref on full volume 

[Jamie0202 12,465]

Definitely makes a difference. So much better to watch the game with crowd noises, even though they're fake.

Its like a pair of tits. Fake tits are better than nae tits but obviously we'd all prefer the real thing. 

[Blueshoff 11,894]

Definitely heard the Billy boys with all the add ons. 

Points deduction coming up 

[ShanksRFC 3,870]

Tried to watch a few games since the restart but turned it off after 5 minutes. Pish.

[McEwan's Lager 30,701]

I hate it but it’s much better than the training ground atmosphere without it imo.

[ForeverAndEver 71,803]

Does absolutely nothing. 

[BertContraband 282]

Wonder if they'll fit an auto launcher at easter road to fire bottles on at the far side to keep it feeling real

[Bristol loyal 6,248]

It’s shit, but still better than not having it, and a lot better than having no football at all.

[Tom0411 1,226]

Noticed that sometimes the ref gets booed. God sakes we do that and it will be an instant fine.

[Tiger Shaw 30,679]

Fake crowd sounds fs

Would rather listen to the players shouts tbh would be interesting to hear who’s the most vocal in our team, hear what instructions or motivation our captain gives ect, much better than listening to fake crowd.  Like watching a game down the local park 😆

Same hear.

Listened to a couple of games on the radio ,and it’s just the same as normal radio games .

Whoever’s in charge of the premier leagues one is a mongo. Watched a few games and the balls went by the post by quite a distance and they’ve played the crowd celebrating audio 😂

It's great to only hear it for a wee while now and then instead of for the full 90 minutes though.
