If they must do it then they should at least try to personalise it to each player and have a bit of a laugh with it like we did in the late 90's if i remeber correctly
Signing I I iffy iffy I HAY! you've got to hide your love away
Cant remember any others. I think we were shit and never scored then The Mighty Quinn was always played just before the teams came out under Jimmy Quinn i think?

I heard it for the fitst time on Saturday too, probably because I normally go in the Townend and the PA is a little bit shit in there but had tickets for arkells on Saturday.
For the record, I hate it.

We've been doing it for years. Always used to be 'eat my goal' which I quite liked, but the James Brown number is a bit cringeworthy and just reminds me of Jeff Stelling making a tit out of himseld on Soccer Saturday.

It could be worse. A lot of teams recently have been playing Chelsea Dagger by the Frattellis. And a lot still have Tom Hark, which has to be the most annoying song ever.

Cant remember any others. I think we were shit and never scored then The Mighty Quinn was always played just before the teams came out under Jimmy Quinn i think? I used to hate that with a vengeance. It was a perfect example of how the club lost its connection to the fans in the McMahon years. Jimmy Quinn wasn't especialy popular amongst the hardcore, after the manner in which he jumped ship to Leicester, after a good season in 87/88. This was, of course, the second time he'd done this , after going to Blackburn.. He was one of the few ex players from that era, who got fearful stick from the South Ciders. Most others eg Kammy, Bambi got their due approbation.. Coincidentally, he pitched up twice the following season, firstly with Leicester, then with Bradford City, we beat them both, which added to the stick he got. The following season, or maybe the one after, he played for the Hammers at the CG, bagged a brace, one of which included a blatant foul on Digby. Didn' t notice the muted celebration thingy. It ended 2-2. By the time Quinn arrived as boss, there was no one left at the club, other than Eddie Buckley, who knew anything of these days.

We also play a big train horn. That's fine, music is a no-no. The same applies at cup finals after the final whistle...we can make own noise without singing along to Queen. I've just realised I'd love the chance to be annoyed by this, as it would mean we've won a cup final (and yes I include the Paint Pot...be delighted to win it).

I can't remember music ever being played after a goal in the last couple of years. I don't like it.

I think the bloke is just trying to get the crowd a bit hyped up. However it never really works
