My God!

The green lines, the corner flag and now this?

Did nothing go right today?

I said I was NOT going to complain Daggs :D

And it was good to hear the original PHG

... and they played Heroes in Blue and White loud enough for people to hear the lyrics, too. It got a much better reception today. What with that, and the PHG played live, the pre-game was the best we've had in a long while, despite the PHG actually not being played all that well! Needs more than one outing per season, I think.

Yeah that was great played loud, I have said it before and i'll say it again I prefer normal 'proper' PHG played but the recorded version, When Henry played it he was out of tune and pretty embarrassing, I saw this young bloke and I could see he had a horn and though he might be better than Henry (Being younger, got better lungs, can hit the notes, e.t.c) but he was poor aswell - Don't get me wrong it must be a hard instrument to play, I couldn't and have no intention too.

Everything was perfect today. Good choices by music (Ranging from the volume of Heroes in Blue & White, To the original PHG, to the delay of playing Chelsea Dagger - Ok that bit wasn't perfect but better and tbh today I couldn't have a gave a fuk! lol), to the atmosphere, to the game, the how the players player, to the last goal.

thought the live PHG was better then the remixed rubbish, but how many dud notes did he hit? :crylaugh: mind you, maybe it's time we just accepted it's a ****ing hard tune to play on a ****ing hard instrument (esp. in front of a crowd and tv cameras), and just played the old PHG. then again, that would be sensible, so hasn't got a cat in hell's chance of happening... :rolleyes:

the chelsea dagwank was the only thing that spoilt it for me today. oh, and playing 'rockin' all over the world' at the end :sick: other than that, great day :D

You mean the same sort of music they play when teams such as Man U, Chelsea etc are celebrating winning the FA/League Cup.

As cheesy as it is, it has the desired effect. You only had to look around the stadium to see that for yourself. As normal post match, I went down to the advertising barriers at the bottom of the Kop to applaud the players. The steward standing on the pitch suggested I turn around and look at the Kop in full voice banging out the famous Quo lyrics. It was a great sight. I wouldn't want it every week, but as I've stated, it produced an atmosphere that was great to be part of.

I felt proud seeing them playing the PHG live again as the players came out, made it feel like we're different and have some tradition that other teams don't have. Shame he couldn't get all the notes right but it had the desired effect, hopefully he'll do it every week and will get better!

Agree with everyone else re the PHG....... loved it and it makes me so proud to hear it.

Im not gonna diss the guy for missing a few notes - I couldnt even make one note! I dont think it matters to be fair.

Is Henry no longer with us? Bless him.

I wish to God they would drop Chelsea Dagger ffs I detest it.

Yep - I also noticed how an air of despondancy descended upon the whole stadium when that was played.

Totally agree, absolutely terrible.

Also, liked the PHG and I didn't actually notice the Chelsea Dagger lol

"Rockin all over the world" was fine.

You should've been in such a euphoric state that you didn't care what was being played over the PA system.

Except the bloke was woeful! I was laughing at his rock star one handed lift of the horn at the end too. But I would love it if they had a guy with a horn every match.

The guy with the horn should stay (although a little more practice or even a couple of stiff drinks to calm the nerves would be in order).

What was the club thinking with the club singer joker at half time. Did he win some random karaoke compitition in order to get his 5 minutes of fame?

The competition must have been appalling, truly awful for him to win any competition.

From some interview with Kasabians Chris Edwards

Presumably if Leicester got to a cup final, you lot would write a song?

Ha ha, probably not. I'm sure we could but it's more a matter of if we'd want to - though the rest of the band might insist. We have done a 15-second edit of our single 'Fire' and sent it to the club, though. We quite fancy the idea of 30,000 people singing 'I'm on fire' every time Leicester scored. Now that would be pretty cool.

is this the end of the horrible Chelsea Dagger? lets hope so!!
