Atlanta_Red Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Here I am, sat working while listening to the French Open streaming commentary, and suddenly heard the commentator remark to a game-ending smash with "and there's Goodnight Irene". Which has now prompted a discussion about the origin of the song.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TinnionForEngland Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 I saw some highlights last season where they were playing someone like Nuneaton or Welling and genuinely heard the commentator describe one of their goals which was a tap in from 6 yards (which the striker did his best to miss) as a 'breath taking finish' I can only assumr I would of lost my breath at how shit it was.

Rich Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Is it Irene? I thought they were calling for their sister as in: "Oy Rene". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
