Title: Goal Horn
Post by: Tails on Monday, March 29, 2010, 20:52:00
This is a strange one, every time we score (barring mental celebrations a la Greer's last minute equaliser) I swear we play quite a long blast of a train horn. I've only ever found a few others who have heard it, has anyone on here heard it??

They don't play it every goal. It's even lamer than the "Gooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllll number onnnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeeeeeee for Swindon Town..."

And the farmer accent that accompanies it.

Come to think of it, it plays before I Feel Good when we score.

I fucking LOVE that! Can you think how annoying it must be as an away fan? Not only has your team conceeded, but the other team have got some bumpkin shouting excitedly that his team has scored. Fucking mint, we should annoy the other team as much as possible. That's why if we don't have one, we should have a goal horn. But only in the away section, and I want it to be really fucking loud as well.

We should release buckets of green gunge over the away fans, Tiswas stylee, synced in with some irritating tannoy music when we score. That'd proper annoy them

I quite like the way there appears to be an armed robbery in a disco going on in the background, though

I have heard some weird noise before, when sat in the Arkells Stand - never really knew what it was though.

I agree that the "goal number one" should be kept. I remember the Leeds fans saying how annoying it was to hear it three times :D

Either I've not noticed it, or someone has substituted the Oxo for something stronger. Mind you, I'm probably too busy jumping around like a nutter to be aware of it.

I don't hear music or a horn.

If it does exist it should be a steam whistle GWR stylee, not a bloody diesel loco horn.

We should release buckets of green gunge over the away fans...

... and at the end of the game, when we've won, the seats and steps in the Arkells all collapse to create a massive slippery gunge covered slide. This slide ends in a massive pool of green gunge as well. Is there any rule or law (that tony might have made) to prevent this happening? Watkins et al should think about this. We'd make Millwall look about as hated as Princess Di.

What about firing up the railway works hooter again? That way the whole of Swindon would know when we score.

I've heard that too, although I can't remember hearing it that often this season, last season it was always played then they would play I feel good

Technically of course they'd only have heard that once.

I have a feeling the blast of a horn (or whatever) only happens when Paynter scores.

Perhaps everytime we score a sniper on the roof of the DRS should take out an away fan selected at his dicression.  The board could give pre match pointers for his targets such as 15 year olds in tracksuits giving it the big one

I'm sure he has. The 'Elf and Safety brigade will be over that like a shot...unfortunately.

I've never noticed anything at all, though I'll try to remember to pin 'em back when we score from now on. I don't notice any music or anything, I think it's like when I laugh hard, or when I'm splurging population-paste - my mind just subconsciously completely clears for a short amount of time, while I'm lost in the moment.

Well, if you're going to treat a joke as a crap attempt to do Daily Mail style "Oooh, it's PC gone mad" then actually the laws on assault and criminal damage would cover it far before H&S  ::)

In which case we should declare the CG a Peoples' Republic and do what the fuck we want  :D
