Whoooooo?

[WhingForPresident]

****ing yawn.

 

[Triggaaar]

I'm not a fan. The subs chance of scoring immediately doubles.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

As for the whole "Whoooo" thing, I guess it was funnyish when Birmingham fans started it many years ago. Along with calling Palace fans "Nigel", perhaps this is another habit that the new Brighton fans are adopting from what they've watched/heard on TV and read about on Twitter/NSC/FB etc.

Who?

 

[coagulantwolf]

Reminds me of when keepers are about to take kicks and everyone goes 'oooooo ah you sh*t ahhhhhhh'.

Sometimes funny, sometimes annoying. Depends how I'm feeling!

 

[Puppet Master]

Brum fans shout "WHO" and the tannoy announcer responds with "You 'eard!"

 

[hans kraay fan club]

It IS funny.

And the fact that we now know that it annoys various humourless grumps, makes it even FUNNIER.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Only funny when used ironically, for example where Walcott got brought on as a sub.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

When Matt Smith came on for Leeds last night, I was expecting everyone to shout "Doctor Who"

Who?

 

[Badger]

It did make me CHUCKLE when Steven Gerrard came on for Liverpool

 

[WATFORD zero]

When a sub comes on.

Was this ever funny?
Does it continue to be funny?
Will it be funny forever?

I think you have made a very good point and in future we should greet all substitutions with a respectful silence. Also when the opposing goalkeeper takes a goal kick

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Did it wind up the Leeds fans last night because ALL their players are world famous ?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Brum fans shout "WHO" and the tannoy announcer responds with "You 'eard!"

Now that IS funny

 

[tinycowboy]

My kids love it. I like it too - it's so naff, it's funny. If we genuinely thought it was hilarious, it'd be rubbish. We know it's rubbish and we enjoy the fact that it is so. I love people with a sense of the absurd - fellow BHA fans, I salute you!

 

[Superphil]

Who?

 

[amexee]

both the "whooo" and the "your shhh", are unoriginal and quite childish and both make me grin.

 

[martin tyler]

Not really, but that's largely because often I don't know anything about the players coming on However, it will be when Aguero, making his return from injury, comes off the bench against us in the Cup

Lol this. 1-0 up at home to city. Aguero Toure and Silva come on.
Whoooooo?

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Surely the whole point of it is to say "who?" when it's someone brilliant and well known coming on? Not when it's someone unknown.

"And coming on, number 7, Luiz Suarez"

"WHO?"

 

[Papa Lazarou]

When Matt Smith came on for Leeds last night, I was expecting everyone to shout "Doctor Who"








No? Suit yourselves

I did just that. Made me chuckle

 

[Codner pharmaceuticals]

It is only mildly amusing in an ironic chuckle way when it is someone well known e.g. double sub of Walcott and Wilshere against us

 

[dougdeep]

My only surprise is that this hasnt been mentioned before.

My only surprise is that it was mentioned at all. Stop sodding moaning!
