Goal music at Withdean/Falmer

[TSB]

Whats equally as bad is at Palace when they only annouce the first name of a scorer and the crowd shout the surname, an idea nicked from Germany. Fortunately we didnt have to hear it this season.

I quite enjoyed it the time before when they scored and it was disallowed. The PA guy obviously wasn't watching the game and started with the "The scorer of Palace's second goal: Tony" and nothing from the palace fans, followed by absolute derision from the Albion fans

On a similar theme, anyone fancy having a foghorn noise when we get a corner a la lincoln? Nope, thought not!

 

[Gully]

No, it is the height of naffness, which is something the men of Sussex certainly aren't.

 

[Normandy seagull]

I voted YES and good poll large one and well continued on

 

[Binney on acid]

Perhaps we should juat have music instead of football.

 

[Yorkie]

Rocket man wasn't stopped as he was never caught.
He gave up voluntarily because he nearly set fire to Brighton b0y in E block.

I still think he should come back though.

Come on Rocket man we need you.

 

[Dave the OAP]

I cannot belive anyone has actually voted 'yes'. Idiots.

 

[Bluejuice]

We could have "Once in a Lifetime" for whenever we score...

 

[Locky]

I remember how pissed off I was every time Palace scored against us in the 5-0 and I had to listen to that stupid music after every goal.

Seems to me it would be nice to piss off away fans when at Falmer.

Yes GOSBTS !!

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Make the most of Withdean being one of the last goal-music-free outposts in the Football League.

When we move to Falmer it'll no doubt be giant foam hands, cheerleaders, big furry mascots and Pigbag all the way, so enjoy it while you can

Pigbag!I hated it when QPR kept playing it against us last two years ago.We conceded four goals up there in all competitions and they had a weird guy with a drum and is celebratory dance was hilarious.We started singing 'the bell,you're worse than Pompeys bell'

 

[LANGDON SEAGULL]

I think Attilla should play before the game 'To Win Just Once' by the Sawdoctors

 

[Dave the OAP]

I think he ought to play


" Things can only get better"

 

[brighton rock]

there would be a lot of dust on the record

 

[The Large One]

So one-third of us don't mind a music-after-goals type celebration scenario?

That is just plain SHOCKING. I am shocked and appalled. Shocked and appalled and disappointed. No, I'm shocked and appalled and disappointed and shocked. This is a DISGRACE What IS the world coming to? It's just shocking. And disgraceful.

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Eeyore Eeyore,the Palace got to Wembley,they've never been there before.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Music during the game is something I detest.

Christ, if fans can't make enough noise when their team scores what hope is there?

 

[Finchley Seagull]

I hope we never have music after goals. It is just meant to wind opposing fans up. Even in a quiet stadium with no atmosphere you should be able to create some noise after scoring.

 

[sully]

For all the people who said yes:

think of all the great goalscoring moments in the Albion's history.

Think of Cullip winner against Chesterfield. That sheer, exploding joy, the feeling of the Albion really being back at last, the triumph of having conquered the cheats, the in-your-face schadenfreude towards Nicky Law. It went on for ages.

How could that POSSIBLY have been improved by some goon in the DJ box sticking Kool & The Gang's "Celebrate" on, five seconds after the ball hit the net?

All music does is dilute the moment, reduce the crowd noise from a lengthy, ecstatic, roof-lifting cheer followed by piss taking of the opposition, to a brief "Hurrah!", followed instantly by pantomime applause to the sound of Pigbag.

It's crap, it's embarrassing, it's Reading, it's the aural equivalent of giant foam hands, it's another step down the road of turning football into a recording of Gladiators.

We are one of the few clubs that doesn't have music: I say we stand up for that proud right!

 

[Storer68]

Why didn't Palace play the're "Glad All Over" music when McShane scored. We certainly were!

 

[Pavilionaire]

Edna - post of the day.

 

[Jam The Man]

Basically i'm apparently the only one who has had the balls to admit i think it would be good!.. I'm MASSIVELY outnumbered though, so I will stand down and respect democracy and the majority vote.

I look forward with intrepidation to my next controversial statement, and the subsequent dog's abuse that I received in my private messages.
