Best TV Sports Theme

[crodonilson]

There are too many for a poll but what's everyones favourite?? We were discussing this in the Dog and Duck last night, personally I very much miss the Grandstand theme and love the Ski Sunday and Soccer AM themes as well.

Although I hate the "sport" and never watch it, I like the BBC's theme tune for the snooker. On a recurring theme, the old Pot Black music was good too.

The best one though is definately this

The Grand Prix tune (Fleetwood Mac) when the Beeb had it, and Ski Sunday.

 

[Seagullible]

BBC always have the mother of themes with Cricket, Ski Sunday, garndstand, MotD etc

I love Ski Sunday

But also Wimbledon as well...

Well obviously, as has already been pointed out, the answer is the BBC cricket theme Soul Limbo.

However honourable mentions do go to Fleetwood Mac's F1 tune The Chain, The Snooker theme (don't know who's responsible for that one) and Grandstand.

Shame we rarely get to hear any of them anymore.

Do Sky have music for their sports coverage? I only ever catch it in the pub so wouldn't know

Superstars rocks and is my ring tone.

Sky seem to use crappy contemporary music most of the time. The Sky Sports News themes particularly annoy me.

It is by The Doug Wood Band and called Drag Racer

Oh yeah of course, all that shit on Sky Sports News, hadn't thought of that.

BBC are the SHIZZ for sports theme tunes. I have Grandstand as my ringtone (ripped from Limewire), and for my text messages I have the ending to the Grandstand theme (where it goes derr der der derrr der der der DUM DUM).

I\'m fighting em off, me.
