Hello everyone The Battle Song that has been sung at the end of the players on field warm-up will not be heard at tonight's game.
The song is meant to be a call to arms and as such needs to gather behind it everyone who supports the team.
It has become clear that this particular song will not be able to do that. Perhaps it is the song itself, or we failed in the way we introduced this innovation.
It was certainly not the performer - David Aston is a passionate Panthers supporter who wanted to contribute to building atmosphere at our games and support for our team. I am certain his awesome talent and passion can be harnessed in a way that leads to a far better result.
Personally, I think David should receive a big cheer for his resilience - it demonstrated his passion for the team. How many of you guys would have been able to withstand the sort of treatment he was given in delivering the song.
I believe, though, that all the boos were not directed at him but at me and the administration team for persisting with it. I am happy to accept all the criticism but ...
Our decision to stop this song will not in any way deter us from introducing new elements to our game day. We will always look for improvements and we will often make mistakes. I am happy to make mistakes and undertake to make plenty more of them.
The idea of having a "call to arms" delivered as the players finish their warm-up is also something that has not been discarded. We have already have a couple of options but will be taking a closer look at this over the next couple of weeks.
In the meantime, thanks to all fans for their feedback (positive and negative) on this particular innovation.
cheers
