"My Way" coming on at the end of the game yesterday made me think about what music people like at the games. I much prefer "Tote End Boys" coming on after if we don't win but I can only assume that "My Way" was played as a tribute to someone? Also before the game... I can't stand "One Step Beyond" by Madness. Really detest it and I am now getting bored of Hugo the Elder The Elder 's favourite "Sweet Caroline" "Seven Nation Army" seems to work quite well. And "Hi Ho Silver Lining" has to stay. "Goodnight Irene" for obvious reasons but I would be tempted to change the others. A bit of Oasis or something would be good I think. Half Time music is crap and in general I get so bored at HT's. Half time entertainment is crap and I have mentioned this before to the club but nothing seems to be done to improve it. I love "Glad All Over" after we win  What would YOU like? |

I’d agree our buildup music is a bit like listening to classic gold but the half time and pre-buildup music is alright and generally a good mix of generations. I’d say oasis is starting to get a bit old school too now though - Don’t look back in anger is approaching 25 years old now.
That said modern music is rather horrific so wouldn’t want us to change to that for the sake of change.
I don’t think poor half time entertainment can be blamed on the music, as you need something a bit extra beyond - it has been fairly poor this season. I do like the Ability F.C. slots, and the kick it for a season ticket was always good.
What I don’t like is little girls with Pom poms dancing around on the centre circle. Not for me thanks. Think it’s a bit weird.

After we win I’d like there to be NO music for at least 5 minutes.
All blaring out the music does is drown out the fans singing the players and DC off.
And unless it’s Tote End Boys, it’s not a Rovers-specific song anyway, so why have some generic rubbish like Glad All Over drowning out Goodnight Irene etc. from the Blackthorn?

Yeah, really, really annoying. Whoever does that, get a bloody clue. |

There are at least 50 different versions online of Irene by many famous singers - just stick Goodnight Irene into Youtube. They could play 2 at every home game and still have some left over at the end of the season.
Glad all Over is awful and Delilah is about a bloke stabbing his bird to death.

Mind you, nearly all of the pre game music is just as bad. |

I love "Glad All Over" after we win What would YOU like? I've Said for years I can't stand the medley of songs we play pre match. Caroline was amusing for a couple of games but it has more than run it's course. I'd rather we just played different tunes each match but with GI played 5 minutes before KO. Also can we not find a version of GI that isn't played at 100mph? I'm sure in the early 2000s we played a much slower version. |

Think it’s a bit weird. I think it's very easy to say modern music is rubbish. I agree that the trash you hear on Radio 1 or Kiss is terrible but 6 music plays loads of new bands which are brilliant. |

Suggest Twisted Sister "We're gonna make it"or Thin Lizzy' s "The boys are back in town".Also on the occasion that we lose Lily Allen "F**k you" (although I think that one is highly unlikely knowing the sanitised era we in).
