Doodle Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Steve bloomers watching and poems like this are dog poo. We need to attract young people to the club. This is aimed at 70 year olds not 17. Get a recent “anthem “ and stick with it. It is embarrassing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't really fit with the working class hero bit...it was trying to proclaim us a place of train makers, fitters and foundry workers etc. unfortunately much of that heavy industry / industrial heritage is long gone. not sure who under 70 actually buys Royal Crown Derby.

It is embarrassing I agree we probably need something better than SBW to rouse the crowd (and it needs to be played when most people are in the seats rather than when many are still in concourse) but I wouldn't describe either SBW or the poem as embarrassing. Also, I'm not sure recent and good songs always work that well. It seems the more naff the song the better it works. Blowing Bubbles, Mull of Kintyre and Delilah are hardly classics but, sadly, they work quite well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The young and their petty obsessions are all that matters? Get stuffed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiddingsRam Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Still plenty of us in Derbyshire grafting and getting our hands dirty for a living ! Working the typical working week and looking forward to a release come match day . Personally think the poems excellent , not sure on the Steve bloomer lyrics being sprayed over the big screen. The only people wanting too look at it would be kids and the majority of whom sit in the North making it uneasy to see the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 You can't win really and you can't please everyone. I'm not knocking the poem, it was the first time I'd heard it, nothing wrong with trying new. Only thing is it sounds exactly the same as the one written for Manchester after the arena attack, same style and words. I'm for less is more... keep SBW or pick a tune (The Dambusters or The Great Escape) and stick to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mind me when you're banging out your poo pretence of music that only approx 1% think is ok. It's not tuneful. It's not music. We're not South London. We're Derbyshire. Someone needs to get a grip. No problem with modern music. But it needs to be music FFS. But I know nothing. @Tamworthram was more than clear about that.

Igorwasking Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 What’s wrong with the Dam Busters? Why not have a traditional song for a traditional club (and you don’t need to learn the words!) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
