Its about the only decent song they do play! Some of the cheesy 80's sh*t they play in the pre match build up is embarrassing!

I stand in Ealing Road so it's always a mystery what's being played or said over the PA.

Most apt choice was the theme from MASH (aka "Suicide is Painless") being played after a bad defeat last season, but musically Immigrant Song is a good choice.. sadly I'm in the target age group

Dazed and Confused would have been apt for the Butcher era.
Or we could have changed the words of Rock and Roll - "Been a long time since we scored a goal"
I'll get me coat.

Search for the Hero is a great song and is all about finding inner strength for your best performance. Lost on you though Smiffy

I bet you love the lighthouse familly too
As it happens. Search for the Hero, is actually about Swindon
the lyrics bear this out...
Sometimes the river flows but nothing breathes.
A train arrives but never leaves.
It's a shame.
Oh life like love that walks out of the door.
Of being rich or being poor.
Such a shame.
But it's then, then that train arrives.
To make you feel at least alive.
And that's why you should keep on aiming high.
Just seek platform 2 and you will escape
You've got to search for the train out of Swindon.
Search for the platform you need.
Search for the hero train guard.
Until you find the key to your compartment.

The words may be just dandy but the music is turgid poo.
I'd go with This Perfect Day by the Saints.

I always do a ~_~ face when The Liquidator comes on at half time because it seems to be a little bit too tongue in cheek considering the financial position. Anyone recall if we played it at half time vs Luton?
It was featured on one of the radio tracks in Grand Theft Auto London too, for anyone else on here who has no life
If anyone's got any good sarcastic songs we can play at half time in upcoming matches, might be a good idea to send them into Peter.

Only if someone bothers to switch on the PA in Ealing Road, otherwise it's pretty pointless!

I don't really know, but it might have something to do with the PA system being all crackly and knackered so they've turned it off. Either that or they had to sacrifice Ealing Road in order to get another tea urn plugged in

None of the speakers have been turned off anywhere in the ground but they are in need of replacement - but like the Brook Road scoreboard which hasn't worked for over a year now - these things cost money which can be utilised more efficiently elsewhere.
Everyone has an opinion on their favourite music but I have to agree some of the choice this season has been dire !! However I am with those that like the Immigrant song as the team come out - a suggestion from Matt Davis I think ..

As far as I know, the Brook Road scoreboard doesn't work because they literally have no spare electric to power it. Maybe it'll get switched on later in the season when we don't need the floodlights.

Makes sense I supppose as most of us 40 somethings also liked it first when we were a lot younger.

Heard last week that they play this at QPR and it was written or maybe performed by QPR fans, maybe that's why it's no longer played. A bit like us never hearing Elton John during the 70's because of his association with Watford....and probably also because there wasn't much that he did that would have been appropriate for a football game....'Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting' aside I suppose.

How about we suggest 'Hard to Beat' by Hard Fi !?! Brentford fans and a very apt lyric (well so far under AS!). Would have been an awful choice earlier in the season though

That is not the case....It has nothing to do with 'spare power' - that particular scoreboard has been checked out and is knackered (technical term! ) They originated from Germany and are now a defunct model .... another of Roy King's 2nd hand deals
..........has anyone asked Bliss if he can get replacement parts for us?............

We've been through this...
There is seriously something wrong with M People.
If you like their music, you may as well put a plastic bag over your head and end it all now.

It's all a matter of opinion - why not get a brass band a la Arsenal at Highbury !!
Or some music of my choice....Wagner or Mahler..now that would wake up D Block.... And some of that heavy metal sh*te as you call it is quite good !!

I naturally assumed that the speakers attached to the Ealing Road roof were new. For the last two games I wonder whether the standard at which the PA system was working in Ealing Road is up to the required safety standards. You can barely hear the music and you can't hear Peter Gilham at all - would we be able to hear an emergency announcement?

I'd rather pierce my eardrums with rusty junkies needles than have to listen to that at GP.
Andy Williams it is then.

The speakers in Ealing Road are new but there have been problems with the system which are due to be rectified before the next home game...

While it is generally a matter of opinion, in the case of the Lighthouse Family it is an established FACT that they are sh*t. :thetruth:

i won't go into the state of people's taste, but i will say that i know a couple of people who used to run out of gp at the end without clapping just to not have to hear the m people track.

:alcoholic Can't remember... maybe it's got a german plug on it and they're not allowed to plug it in without Earthing it?
Can we not even afford a big board with team names on and get the ball boy to change the number? Can't be any worse than the old Brook Road scoreboard which had an error and looked like a 4 when we'd scored 1.
