GET RID OF THE GOAL MUSIC!!! PLEASE!!

[ruprecht]

You just have to accept that the Stadium is a complete mongfest these days. I find the best way to cope with it is to
quaff as many fosters before kick off as is possible, attach some white and blue ribbons to my headstick and march on in.

HATE the goal music but can put up with it.
HATE the drummer but can put up with it.
HATE the band and I really cannot put up with that. Fecking hate the brass band. They've ruined an even shitter atmosphere.

Not ignoring you, far from it. I observed with my own eyes and it is what it is.

Amazing how you can judge other people's motivation and intention, whilst jumping up and down, celebrating a goal to music. Psychic multi-tasker.

Think the same applies to both of you guessing what peoples emotions are. The musics here to stay so we'll have to put up with it.

I'm not saying it isn't 90% or 4/5ths. I'm saying he can't know it is. And I'm basing it on my experiences. I'm sure I look like I'm joining in from a distance, but I've only done it half a dozen times out of scores of games I've been to since we started using it. Normally I'm just jumping up and down and shouting waiving my arms.. nothing to do with the music.

I agree the music is here to stay and I do put up with it. It's clear plenty of people do either like it, or join in anyway.

To be fair, I don't think I ever really hear or notice the brass band. Still an embarrassment. Drummer, meh, goal music, it's grown on me. Although it's not a shade on Fleetwood Town and their Captain Pugwash theme music....

Ok, repeat away, totally ignoring what I said.

Maybe I can help you.

Just watch and see. We score, the crowd goes mental and celebrations begin to fade, the music starts and people join in. It is as clear as it can be, there IS a response to the music that is separate from the normal celebration.

Does that clarify things?i

Perhaps we should change the goal music and have them play a recording of 'Bill Oddie'

Would be original and great fun to see 20,000+ jumping up and down and joining in with that! Would almost make the PA goal celebrations excusable.

Superficial Atmosphere.......Yuk It's just shit.

Really?

[Haag Royal]

Couldn't give a damm about the music....too busy enjoying myself

what really gives me the ache is that I can't leave my seat once the half time whistle blows, go down, queue up for one cup of tepid Bovril and not get back to my seat before the players come out. Must be the slowest service in the whole Prem.

So get rid of the caterers not the music. PS wrong thread I know but ......

Just out of interest, how many of you moaning about the band, drummer and goal music have actually written to make your grievance official?

There's absolutely no point moaning on here. Write an email and send it to the club and if you want something to change, do it numbers!

[Mike Hunt]

If the band was a fully fledged, American College football band, then yes. It just sounds like 3 guys with trumpets on the TV, playing the same song over and over.

If anyone knows one of the three amigos, please ask them that Mike Hunt wants them to play "Ants go Marching".

Chill pills chaps, if you worry about little things like this then you really should chill out.

I don't mind goal music as such, but the goal music we have now is absolutely oxf*rd terrible. I mean absolutely oxf*rd holy shit oxf*rd twating oxf*rd terrible. I cringe every time I hear it. God knows what the away fans must think of it. Anybody who actually dances looks like a complete spastic and should be shot. The brass band can oxf*rd off, what do they think this is? Some sort of fête? A day trip for old people? Fak off....

This club makes me sick sometimes. Really oxf*rd sick. oxf*rd plastic handclapper-using cunts.

Then you could always go to another club that didn't achieve this level of nausea for you. That would leave the rest of us to get on and enjoy continuing to support Reading.

I'm not really arsed. I do think we were better off with Tom Hark than the darts music though. Strange choice.
