PA Systems and Goal Music

[Chris001]

Watching Norwich on the FL show and they play loud music over the pa system after every goal. A load of clubs do this nowadays but I really really hope we don't end being one of them. Really makes me cringe when i hear it! What do you all think?

It seems to be universally disliked when the subject comes up on here. I had the chance to ask Martin Perry about this for the Amex, he said that the day we have 'after goal' music, will be the day he leaves.

at most premiership grounds after goal music is a rarity.

 

[Easy 10]

Surely Norwich fans must have been getting sick of it after the 6th time on Saturday.

I honestly don't know how they can stand it. It would genuinely RUIN the moment for me.

 

[Chris001]

Glad to hear we won't be going down that route. Knew we had more class than that!

YMCA for the pink-pound spending fan?

But theriously, we are The American Express Albion

I'd rather have a 40-foot Michael Jackson statue on the West Stand Roof than goal music.
Each time this one comes up we all say how much we totally deplore it - but you never hear anything from goal music victims at other clubs.

Surely there must be SOME real fans left at Norwich, Ipswich, Sheffield Utd and so on. Is it remotely possible that they actually LIKE it? Or have they all been secretly lobotomised and become Stepford Wives-style robots?

Forget about fans' opinions on gay footballers. Where's the national goal music survey?

 

[Seagull Steve]

I hope we don't have goal music, there's nothing worse than drowning out the crowd than that. I want to scream and shout for sheer joy. If I wanted to hear music, I'd stay in the pub.

 

[Icy Gull]

If we EVER play goal music I really hope the whole stadium Booos non stop for 5 mins afterwards. It's trite and offensive and is yet more American crap finding it's way over here

Keep it for the shite that is American football and it's requirement for a game which appears to be built around tv advertising and schmultz

 

[Easy 10]

Goal music = cancelled direct debit.

 

[clippedgull]

Another f***ing yankee import. I personally can't see why any music is played at football. If I want music I go to a gig or wear headphones with my Ipod.

 

[FlownWest]

I'm glad from what I've read on here about our fans and the club itself that there seems to be a consensus against ever introducing it. It really is dreadful, I'd like to know how many fans at clubs like Norwich actually like it

 

[hans kraay fan club]

I even heard it after a try was scored at a RUGBY match the other day. F.F.SAKE.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

If you need music to get you excited when a goal is scored welp, I just dont know what to say.

 

[Easy 10]

And what are the parameters for it ? If you're getting tonked 3-0 or 4-0 at home but scramble back a meaningless consolation goal in injury time, do they STILL turn on the disco ?

We should ask the Palace fans.

 

[The Large One]

They had goal music at Rochdale.

Which was shit.

 

[Superphil]

There will not be goal music at the Amex, end of story.

 

[Giraffe]

I would like to try and find a fan of another club who likes it. There are a lot of clubs that do it now so presumably their fans like it? I've just never met anyone that actually does like it.

Goal music = cancelled direct debit.

You're a parent, aren't you, Easy. That falls into the pantheon of 'The Empty Threat'. Another fine example is 'If you don't go to sleep you will NOT be going on holiday to Corfu tomorrow!'

Indeed... but BOOING loudly when it is played was very successful within the rugby fraternity.
