Because we are watching the footy you gronk. Here in Australia we have teams capable of winning. We don't have to sing to try and cheer ourselves up!!!!!!!
You wanna sing? Stay home and watch Glee. You want me to sing? Get Iron Maiden to play at halftime.
I'd say the alot having this attitude has something to do with it. Being an ex a-league supporter (until NQ got the ass) during summer it is great fun singing and chanting the whole time and makes for a great atmosphere. No matter how hard it is tried it is something that will never pick up in any other australian sport and also in our international games (including soccer as for everyone that is keen to get songs happening there are 10 AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI people that will drown them out and not want a bar of it). Spending 4 days at the sydney ashes was painful because of this, can definately do much better then Aussiex3 Oix3 as our only response to anything.
Back to the point, wasn't having a dig at you loudstrat, just using you as an example of the mindset that will stop it from happening, not that its a bad one as you still putting in the hard yards and making it to games. Ive sat at parramatta staduim with my brother for a cowboys game and had a few songs lined up that we sang for most of the game but found that you break song for every line break, big hit, held up, defensive set on the line as i tend to shut up and watch nervously, sideline conversion etc etc. Plenty more happening on the field when compared to an EPL sort of atmosphere but would still be great to see as if you watch some big derby games over there with 60+k crowds doing it it sounds great and being in the middle of it would be an awesome experience.
Pipedream but aslong as the games remain exciting to watch then everything else is a distant second
