GOSBTS- nsc's most controversial poll?

[kevtherev]

Keep, but can we get a copy of it, that does not sound like its a 20yr old vinal with scrathes. Or maybe thats just the crap Withdean sound system, I imagine the Amex will have a quality sound system.

 

[Simster]

The club will NEVER ditch Sussex by the Sea, and rightly so. I don't think Naylor even suggested doing so.

This is an absurd poll.

 

[Lush]

Does any other team run out to music that directly relates to WHERE the team is based? Can't think of any off hand.

 

[Brovion]

Weren't they forced to go "snazzier" because they went bankrupt and reformed under the new name?

No, it happened in about 1973 and it was purely for marketing purposes. They changed the badge as well! I think it was the John Bond era and they were trying to modernise the club. Not sure about the club song!

 

[Giraffe]

Only one answer, keep it.

 

[desprateseagull]

103 votes (so far), and 95% say KEEP!

so do one, Naylor

What did you vote, Simster?

 

[Kent Seagull]

Does anyone else remember when Mike Bamber tried to modernise the image when we got into the old first division. Not only did he get rid of the stripes but he had some dreadful fanfare crap played for the team to run out to. Fortunately neither lasted. A football club should never ever forget its roots. GOSBTS is a unique song that is so deep rooted into our history that it must be played forever!

 

[porkypie]

Keep, f*** of naylor!

 

[Gerbil]

The 6 people who voted bin are f***ing IDIOTS.

 

[Bulldog]

I don't go to that many away games, but at those I do go to there is ALWAYS a group of supporters FAR younger than me prepared to belt GOSBTS out with a passion that only a teenager or twentysomething is physically capable of.

What are you basing this statement on?

You don't muck around with an ANTHEM just to make it trendy. We don't NEED to change it.

Hi Spiros

My comments were based on my experience.

I am getting a bit deaf, but I don't hear people, of any age, singing the words.

I hear good, heartfelt renditions of, were going up to win the cup, for Sussex by the sea. But I dont hear people singing the actual words of the anthem.

 

[Notters]

This poll really should be public so we can hound those who vote for "bin"

 

[Cheshire Cat]

95.2% in favour. No controversy here.

name and shame

 

[Ian Bairds Fist]

Whoever voted BIN must be either:

a) VERY young

b) Clueless

c) uneducated in the history of Sussex / The Albion

d) A new fan

e) a f***ing idiot

or a combination of all the above...

This.

 

[Screaming J]

Why is the poll controversial?

Quite. Given the current %s (94% keep) it's about the least controversial poll ever !!

 

[The Mole]

Does any other team run out to music that directly relates to WHERE the team is based? Can't think of any off hand.

Forest have the Robin Hood theme - quite appropriate for their history and Everton have the Z Cars theme tune - which is a bit more obscure, but the programme was based in Liverpool - something to be applauded.

Neither as uplifting as GOSBTS though

 

[Lush]

Really? :safeway

[The Modfather]

Spot on fella.

I notice that they are unable to offer any suitable alternatives.
