I wasn't about when it was first made so got no nostalgic value for me really. Just sounds naff and a bit cringeworthy. I appreciate people's liking tradition, but some traditions - like OFTBC - are worth getting rid of in my opinion. If fans sung it and identified with it, I'd probably have a different opinion. I've never heard an fans sing it despite everyone knowing the words. Would actually sound quite good perhaps if sung at an away game.. This is City you're talking about. Fans don't sing along to anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything is better than what we currently have. Coventry City have also been a leader in the pre match music - but the MAIN problem at AG8 is our sound system is crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit - located !! Problem with Sweet Caroline for me is that Reading use it as their theme song too (when the teams come out, when they win etc). I've been married to a Reading fan for 5 years and she begrudgingly admits that it's good we have our own song to run out to, along with Drink up thy Zyder etc. I cannot imagine the grief I'll get if we ever start copying Reading....and don't get me started on the music they play when they score.....!!!

Unfortunately with me being in work on the 2-10 shift if I won't be able to hear it in the ground. Hopefully I will be able to hear it on radio Bristol.

On 25/09/2016 at 23:33, Xiled said: This was never 'running out' music but for a few brief games, Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis was played when we scored.... I loved that. But then everyone got into a bit of a rhythm and the stands literally started bouncing. Clouds of decade old dust started to emerge from the ends of the Dolman and I think it had to be dropped as a potential safety issue. Yeah, it's got Chelsea in the title but everyone knows it and you can't help tapping your foot. Okay, someone tell me it's sh*t. Maybe we could play it for Tammy?

Phileas Fogg Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 How hard would it be to do something like this? Allow fans to make the pre-match playlist and publicise it like Salford City do in the pic below. Their playlist is much better than ours and feels more collaborative in its creation.
