Not run out music but we used to have Del Shannon, Runaway. Always played in the build up pre kick off back in the Twerton Park days. Fairly sure it got played every week as we got in the habit of not losing so became a bit of a superstition to always play it. No doubt someone can confirm this It's still used now before most games.

We used the pirates of the Caribbean theme when Buckle was in charge, about 2011.... I remember it being about as popular as Buckle himself.... I quite liked it tbh. Dramatic, relevant and relatable for young fans. Rocky's been done to death IMO. Same here, fits the pirates and a nice change

As women remember everything, I'm gonna text my sis in an impartial way: What time would rovers play 'runaway' at twerton? Doesn't prove much but she's remembers everything....

The ever reliable, fountain of knowledge, that is the sister of mine replied: It was quite early I think, maybe 2:20. I wasn't really looking for the exact minute but she wouldn't get twerton wrong....

Thank you to everyone for commenting and sharing your memories, its invaluable to the project. To answer a few questions... In terms of the funding of the study (and the wasting tax payers money ), these studies have very little costs, and any costs they do incur are funded through statistical training courses Chris runs privately. This is essentially a hobby project - Chris's day to day work is in statistics for more worthy causes such as workplace related health, Nick's a teacher, and I work for a running company. The reason we're doing this study is because football fans who are all interested in the game and what it says about the wider culture we live in. We're not only interested in what the music is/was, but the why - we're keen to see how changes in style, type of music used relate to a club's status, wider music fashions, the wider fashionability of football, how clubs have attempted to commodify the match going experience and the battle between globalism/localism. If anyone else has any other songs to share please let me know. If you remember roughly what season a song was played in that's very helpful too! Once again, thanks for all your help, Cheers

The Rocky theme has been used as far back as 1990 and I don't recall us using many others. I have some vague recollection that we may have used Chumbawumba for a handful of games possibly around 2007? We used chumawumba for a whole season in 98/99. Was great lol

Did we ever run out to 'Hi Ho Bristol Rovers' (can't remember the proper title) or am I tripping?
