Steve Diggle Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Can somebody tweet and advise old cloth ears to read this thread then? Failing that can we have him dope tested? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 The thing is, it's one thing to sit and think "I think I'll play this absolutely ganting mash-up of the Proclaimers", but to sit and think "I think I'll this absolutely ganting mash-up of the Proclaimers against Hibernian" is another. I looked forward to the inevitable mash-ups of Tina Turner and Wolfe Tones for the Rangers and Celtic games respectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellfan1984 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 TBF least he didn't use "Sunshine on Leith".... No, no small give on that one? I agree though really is awful! Saying that why is there music before the game and at half time? You'd think it would to get the atmosphere up to bubbling point but it fails badly at Fir Park and most other Scottish Stadia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Wellfan 2k7 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Why has the complaining only started now? I thought the tunes sounded better the second time round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Diggle Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I notice a distinct "holy fuck he's playing the proclaimers . . . . . . .against hibs" moment l last night. This might be the tipping point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Wellfan 2k7 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 On saturday there was the "thats brilliant, playing proclaimers v hearts" reaction Honestly can't please some..... Gotta say, its pish nonetheless haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-fan Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I thought it was only me that was irritated by the 5 tunes mixed into one! I assume it gets pumped into the away side dressing room to completely bamboozle them before the game starts?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
du_du_dubordeaux Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 He's went crazy up there in that box on his own. Think MFC lock him in there aw week and feed him cold pies. He just sits in the skud polishing his cassette collection itchin to play samba de janeiro next home game. Last night he's only went and fired aw the tapes on at once to create a mash up bodger and badger would be proud of. Lost the plot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 IMHO its been going downhill since we stopped playing "Rose Garden" by Lynn Anderson in the early 70s So smile for a while and let's be jolly: Love shouldn't be so melancholy. Come along and share the good times while we can. I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden. Along with the sunshine, There's gotta be a little rain sometimes. Hey! That was my auld man that done the tunes in the 70's, 80's 90's Went by the name of 'Slimboy Fat' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modernist Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Lies. We should get an Al Jolson tribute act. There's not enough Blackface Cabaret these days. We'd also be able to put the "racist Motherwell fans" slur to bed if we had a genuine pretend black guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordon_mfc Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I was talking to Leeann Dempster at the AGM tonight regarding the volume of the tannoy in the east and the music selected. Im on it lads... watch this space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I was talking to Leeann Dempster at the AGM tonight regarding the volume of the tannoy in the east- We used too check the volume before every game. Only problem was that the stadium was empty @ the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sieb Dykstra Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I was talking about exactly this at half time, shite songs mixed in shitey ways that don't even work. The worst of the lot is the one where he "mixes" Sex On Fire and Dakota without paying the slightest bit of attention to timing. If the club must have a mixing type DJ rather than a radio type DJ, at least get someone that isn't fucking shit at it. I doubt there's anyone spending the first half thinking "hmmmm...I wonder what it would sound like if Rihanna was in The Proclaimers". Just play some tunes of the day, one after the other. It's no hard. I bet the Proclaimers would love to be in Rihanna though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Fir Park tannoy announcer guy, All will be forgiven if you belt out the Champions League theme after we beat Rangers on the 31st.* Cheers, Jay * - Assuming we're still looking alright for 2nd, and Rangers exist, and 'belting it out' won't cause the already shite sound system to explode. Disclaimer: Before folk start greeting, I am aware that in reality it would be a bit of a bad move given we could then spectacularly fail to finish 2nd or 3rd, but it would still be fucking hilarious at the time. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
