maydrakin Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Goal music is something I really hate. One usually gets the initial bit of passion and enjoyment of the celebration before the crappy music comes in and pours water on it. It usually curtails my celebration and I would gladly see it consigned to the depths of history. It’s just too much like forced “fun”, which is another thing I can’t find time for.

Goal music is a very close second. Also we've been saying it for years, TURN IT DOWN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No proper coat, just body warmer. Same for the first half of the walk home, then as I got to Jaguar, on that new exposed bike path adjacent to the A52, the hail battered me. My face was red raw! I remember thinking to myself... "OUCH! That smarts a little"! 👀 "Sunshine and showers" my arse! 🤬 Ram-Alf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BathRam72 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I am positive that if they removed the music. There would be a thread asking to bring it back. I for one am too bust celebrating and only notice extra noise in the background Kathcairns, LazloW, Bessie1 and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfway to the Telegraph after the game the heavens opened...I was glad I put my coat on 😁 Mucker1884 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maydrakin Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I think the issue is that everyone is there because they are supporting Derby - that is the common ground that unites us. To a football crowd, music is subjective (and, in fairness, I don’t care what they play before and after the game) meaning that what someone likes is anathema to someone else. For instance, I love music and I love football, just not together. I really like Drone Corpse Aviator by Archspire, however I also appreciate that many others do not. Why should that be blasted over the speakers when we score? (It shouldn’t) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester40 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 11 hours ago, Mucker1884 said: Nope. It's not meant to be taken seriously and/or be based on factual evidence. It is catchy, easy on the ear, and fun. What's not to like? I find it a bit cringe tbh. West Ham fans were singing constantly in Europe... that was a bit naff... singing it against Blackpool in League 1 is worse. Very little chanting about promotion etc... think no one wants to dare say it as we seem to have a self destruct button we daren't tempt into action.

By the tome we had walked round him we were totally drenched. And the cars didn’t move for another 10 minutes, so he could have let us get to our car dry. The wassock!

The idea in itself is not the problem, likely it’s the execution. All of the big clubs across Europe have either goal music or a stadium announcer that gets the fans going. So it’s not surprising we are trying to do the same. Perhaps the problem for us is that we don’t have a song that feels authentically ours or a stadium announcer that captures the mood? Porto, for instance, play the same goal music as us and also have a stadium announcer, but it feels very different as everyone gets involved and embraces it as part of the atmosphere.

I’m sure it works for them, but not everything translates from Europe to here though. All the mad pyro in Turkey is great, for example, but it just wouldn’t work here.

Wolfie20 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Am I alone in not realising there was 'goal music'? Haven't a clue what it is - too busy celebrating to be concerned with such nonsense. LazloW and archram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I’ll be twirling my scarf frantically to the goal music when CBT bangs in the winner to send us up v Carlisle. DarkFruitsRam7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had got a second it would have been better, its always nervy af with the one goal imo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
