Tune Four...
Or just give me the playlist.... I would blow the roof off!!
However I would STOP as the teams run out and leave it to the supporters.
Overloud and often (IMO) inappropriate pre-match 'music' has blighted home games for a few seasons..... rocking up to the turnstile 5 mins before kickoff is, I find, the best way to avoid having to endure most of it
yupGrouchy old man syndrome.

I agree although sadly I think football rarely has that big buzz before kickoff now aside from in important games. When there was terracing, there was a greater incentive to get in earlier to get a decent standing position and I think it generally is more conducive to singing. Having set seats means that people are more inclined to get into their place later and generally doesn’t encourage singalongs. Sad but true I believe.Overloud and often (IMO) inappropriate pre-match 'music' has blighted home games for a few seasons..... rocking up to the turnstile 5 mins before kickoff is, I find, the best way to avoid having to endure most of it

Ha. I used to get in early for the Beech Road Terrace (about 1-ish usually) but that was because I was a short-a**e child so needed to secure a place at the front of the top tier to be able to see. Not so much defending of the Beech Road required in the mid nineties as far as I remember!agree 100%...... and those of us from a particular era , you also got there a bit earlier to defend your 'end' of the ground .... in our case, the London Road end ..... those were the days !
