im sorry, but i just cant stand it when a crappy 'i feel so good' tune is played after every bloody goal. it cheesy, american, cringe worthy and pathetic, oh and it also drowns out the actual celebrations of the crowd. oh, and that prat that goes goooooaaaalllll no.1 scored by blah blah just makes me want to crawl into a hole and die.

if anyone can stop this ridiculous americanism/plastic football crap please do so.

You'll be interested to know the man who does the tunes - Stuart - is a big Ice Hockey fan!!

can you tell the prat that its not wanted, in fact its a complete and utter disgrace

harsh but fair :D

i dont want swindon going down this plastic route, like reading with their plastic stadium and cheesy tunes, and southampton, hull, forest the list goes on. it has no place in england, let alone football stadiums

I swear every time he goes to say it he says: 'Goal number one for Swindon town scored by number 9, Super.. Sa..' then realises what he's doing.

I remember the Forest game for their music after every goal we conceded. Bad memories  :(

i never knew we had alan partridge announcing the goals  :D

TWAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS LIQUID FOOTBALL!

the music would be better if it didn't sound like someone had turned their walkman up really loudly.

i completely agree with what you say....not too bothered about the announcer but cheesy music should really be avoided at all costs.

Who gives a shit?

I'm just happy we scored, I couldn't really care if we play music or not, or how the announcer says who scored.

You lot are too fussy.

Happy clappy freak :x

Wasn't like this when I did the PA for, erm, about six games ......

Didn't like the Arkells. Too quiet.

The only time music at football has ever been cool is when they used to play ska at the hawthorns, molineux, and stamford bridge 8)

Music after goals is just plain wrong.

I fecking hate that tune
Quite funny in that game our fans doing the east chant at 6-1 down, apart from the football that was a great day out

I have to admit, I didn't even realise we played music after the goals at the CG!!!!

It is indeed shit, and now I will clearly end up hearing it it will annoy me.  Middlesborough is the worst, they even join in the song when the players come out.

I know this may seem odd, considering I'm involved with the Red Army L&P stuff, but music is, as pointed out, very American whereas we are trying to bring ins stuff done at football the world over.

What is the tune out of interest? is it really cheesy?

Announcer is ok, can't remember a time we didn't have one to be honest, although I'm sure there was.

But it was the football that made it an horrendous day(nay,weekend)out.

its a great song, forget the name but its waaaahhh! i feel good,  etc with that famous jazzy bloke. my point is that music should only be played in the interval and before the game. it has no place during the game, its cheesy, american, cringeworthy, childish, and downright pathetic AS IF WE CANT CELEBRATE THE GOAL OURSELVES!!!!!!! the announcer bloke is ok, i just wish he wouldnt do that drawn out stupid childish thing, cant he just say who scored the goal normally? and not as if he just wet himself like an over excited three year old?

I think your argument is invalid if you don't know who James Brown is.

but do you agree with me on this one?

I do agree with it partly. If we had music after winning every corner/free kick/goal etc it would be even more annoying and also even more American. As it stands I can tolerate it as it is because I'm usually celebrating our rare goals too much to even notice, even though it is a bit shit.

A lot of potential fans are going to come from the children of other supporters and their partners who might not be into football as much. For them it might make it a more fun day out. So I can see why it's done.

I wouldn't have any problem with post-goal music, if it was decent/funny/interesting.

we should play music when the opposition score something like karma police by radiohead would be good.

its was better when they pried to "personalise" the goal music back in the quinn era like "I I iffy iffy I" and "Hey! you've got to hind your love away!"

What's that music they play at Wolves called, is it "The Liquidator"?

It goes:

na na na na
na na na na
na na na na
na na na na

and the crowd respond (every last man woman and child - kids, mums, dads, grannies and grandads - the whole family):

"FUCK OFF WEST BROM,
FUCK OFF!"


Gold 8)

Yes, that one does work.  Sort of diddly tune which suggests it's very very very old.

Here we go. Good old Wikipedia, the world's greatest non-porn web site:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Liquidator

liquidator is a tune 8) we should play it

Harry J and the All Stars a tune from my early skinhead days of te 60's....of course Liquidator started off as a Baggies anthem....it was nicked by Wolves.

we should play the motd music

that is all

i think they played the old grandstand theme on sunday at the end of the game, although i may have imagined that.

We need to get rid of that fucking repubica ture when the players come out thats for sure.

They did play grandstand at the end of the game

I've heard that you will see changes in the style of matchday music and presentation from the first home game.

Mark D called both the 'music man' and pitch side announcer in for a meeting and they have decided to update the style a bit. Not sure wtat they have in mind , howerver, it will be changing in someway.

Grandstand has been played at the end of games for a long time.

infact ive changed my mind, sometimes its okay. they played the clash tommy gun after afew of mooneys goals i seem to remember, thats just plain  8)

What ,that famous jazzy bloke?

no, Aaron Browns dad

I hear he's got a brand new bag

Living up north and working stupid hours, I haven't been in ages. So I''ve not heard the goal celebration music at the CG.

As I read through this thread I was wondering what this "I feel so good" might be, having quickly dismissed the idea that it could possibly be "I got you (I feel good)" by T'godfather of soul, on the assumptioin that if it was there was no way this forum would allow 3 pages of discussion with him being referred to as "that famous jazzy bloke". (Jazzy bloke FFS!)

I am frankly dissapointed with you all (except the pie boy)

And thats fine, what they need to do is change the goal music, the entrance music and the music before the match and at half time.

Music after goals is shit.

Just take an IPOD with you, then you can play your own post-goal music.

Is sonic doing the scoreboard again? Perhaps he can put up subliminal messages when we score, somethng along the lines of "This music is wank"...just a thought

Sonic Youths ace on the score board.

To be honest, I really don't know or care what is played after we have scored.  If anyone, just after we score, stands up and thinks, 'oh, this music is annoying', they really ought to question their commitment and priorities.

Yeah, your normally to busy celebrating the goal then listening to the music but if the musics good then it adds to the atmosphere.

haha, the bloke sits in the next box along from me at the back of the arkells - he doesn't like me very much as it is.

i'll mutter about the shitness of the music on saturday 8)

It just winds people up unnecessarily.I hated "eat my goals" at MKD so much that when we equalised I turned into this uncontrollable rage-filled idiot singing "Eat MY fucking goals " at the entire mkd main stand.

feel the LOVE burn motha fucka burn!!!

THIS IS WHAT POST GOAL CRAPY SHITTY AMERICAN MUSIC DOES TO PEOPLE
