Goal Music - worse than ever.

My email:

Dear Mr.Jones,

I am writing to you to show my dissapointment at the goal music that was played yesterday.

The Chelsea dagger to many fans symbolises the season that we got relegated and if you were to visit www.foxestalk.co.uk, you will see just some of the comments on the situation.

I am a season-ticket holder and sat in SK1 yesterday, the atmosphere was a massive improvement on last year but the goal music just killed it off. Fans were looking at each other in disbelief and shock at the thought of looking like a mug again dancing to a song that was played during a season that we had 3 managers, scored very little goals and the performances were a disgrace.

Even worse was that there was a 5 second break where everybody was cheering and celebrating their own way but was then spoilt when the tune was put on!

It has to be scrapped, it is disgusting that the club even dared to play the tune, it is already played at too many clubs and just spoils everything. I wouldn't mind us having goal music but please please please not the Chelsea Dagger! And instead something that gets the crowd cheering and jumping up and down and adding to the atmosphere instead of doing some silly dance. Maybe something along the lines of 'House of Pain - Jump around' would be a good option but then again, we might not be allowed because it may cause 'structural damage'.

Thank you very much,

Bob

I noticed a few people in L1 yesterday completely stop celebrating when it came on.

Tommeh, Kilworth and myself all looked at each and just stopped when it came on. It's painful. I literally cannot celebrate to it, it's now become impossible. Call me miserable or whatever, but I feel such a clown dancing to it like a mug.

I did exactly the same. It completely ruins the moment.

it might be an idea to put the same poll on TalkingBalls so the club can't just say that the opinion of 1 forum

It would, however some of the posters on here also post on TB (:o) and the results could be skewed with multiple voting.

But I will think about it.

I'm consider asking PJ if there's any chance we could trial for just one match without goal music and see what the general reaction is after that.

Not very useful if we don't score and it may take a few games before people realise they can actually celebrate in their own style without having to wait for some faceless arse to let them know.

I don't believe the music will ever disappear because it's a control tool and enables them to control the length of the celebration and to 'force' people to sit with out having to be told to by stewards.

Dont really care, as long as we keep scoring il keep singing!

That's the problem though you can't keep singing because you've either got the chelsea shit playing or you're having to sit down and shut up once it stops.

Yes, and yes.

Oh and btw I'm contacting the club aswell.

Call me a twat or whatever, but it's my opinion :cool:

It's not about calling anyone names, I just want to see what the real split of opinion is. If yours differs from mine, so be it, unless you want them to play "Come on Eileen", in which case, you are a bigger twat than Raj! lol

The thing that baffles me is that peopl are saying they dont want to have to do the silly dance - well you dont have to! You can celebrate in your own way. I dont like the music, but you dont have to celebrate when it starts and not celebrate when it doesnt (waiting until it does), its ridiculous.

I wasn't saying that you would...it was just half my post was replying to yours. I've been absolutely berated before for liking Chelsea Dagger as a goal tune.

Come on Eileen? Meh. YMCA would be quality though, as I've said before. :ph34r:

I know, but I wanted the chance to say something mildly amusing. :cry:

Of course you don't have to but the thing is so over powering and blots out all natural instinct and individual thought.

As for carrying on afterwards it seems pretty clear to me that anyone still standing after the music stops is at risk of being chucked out as witnessed yesterday when there was a string of expulsions from different parts of the ground following the second goal.

people were getting thrown out for standing up? what part of the ground was this in? did L1 or k block stand up through the game?

I sat down like a good girl, just like what the sticker told me to do.

There were people being escorted out of the ground, after the music had stopped for the 2nd goal from East Stand / Kop corner area. I may be wrong but it's somewhat coincidently otherwise.

Well I cannot do that anymore, you can say what you think people can do all you like but it's simply not true. I feel so awkward when it comes on now that I have no choice but to look at the pitch really.
