Sebastian the Red Like all of you I have spent my last few months doing little else other than analysing every single aspect of the club to work out what went wrong.

When Billy Beane used mathematicians instead of scouts to analyse what was going wrong for the Oakland A's baseball team, everyone thought he was mental, but the film Moneyball showed that he was 100% right. In a similar vein, I decided to apply a rigorous approach to the club's recent failings.

Having accounted for a fair amount of fuzz in the stats, and excluded a lot of irrelevant factors, I have been forced to conclude that the club started falling off the cliff when we stopped playing "Ashes" by Embrace at home games.

I think we should bring it back. Not only is it potentially thematically relevant, but I think it would guarantee the club promotion. I hope that the powers that be see this.


I'd prefer Brimful of Asha personally.

Does anyone under 25 understand that last question?

You're wrong, our demise started when they started playing Sweet oxf*rd Caroline before kick off.


You're both wrong. Our demise started in the last Premier League season when this dirty harlot turned up and wooed Kingsley. It has been downhill ever since.

Think Reading FC, think Metallica.

Half of the West Stand would keel over and die if Metallica blasted out before a game.

Well we did start playing The Ecstasy of Gold before kick off at the end of last season, which has been Metallicas walk-on music since the 80s. So it might fit.

Sure - as long as it is Jacques Dutronc or the Bolan Boogie.
