The post horn gallop....

[city-faithful]

That bollocks (and I mean that sincerely, its garbage, absolute garbage) that we trot out to....why is it still there? I remember when they played it for the first time, and they said it was only for those girls to dance to? Wheres our sense of tradition gone....get 'Enry and his horn out again, the guy obviously enjoyed it, and he won't be on the inflated wages of the players!!!

Tucka

its just tradition isnt it!

i dont like the jazzed up version

 

[city-faithful]

Exactly my point, i LOVE the old post horn gallop...i.e the horn on its own. But all this crap we're forced to listen to, pah. Its modern city for ya really. More Gimick than owt.

 

[Scarby]

im not sure the reasoning to change to the jazzed up, does anyone know why the club did this?

 

[city-faithful]

the only reason I can imagine is to appeal to children a lot more, get 'em while they're young and all that. But to be fair one of my fave. memories of city is hearing the Post Horn Gallop at my first match....a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Oxford!!!

 

[Scarby]

good old Filbo!!!

 

[city-faithful]

Yeaaahhh, good times there
Shame we couldn't have extended the "cowshed" and kept the stadium, its true what they say, whilst these new stadiumds look shiny they lack any character! Remember the old Kop! FAR BETTER atmosphere than this current Kop.

 

[Scarby]

couldnt agree more

 

[Boy Genius]

No...........

They should get Henry and shove his horn so far up his arse, so that every time he farted it would come out his ears.

Tell me why do we need music or some twat blowing a horn?

 

[Scarby]

what was so wrong with Henry?

 

[M17TT C]

we should definately without a doubt get rid off the crazy frog remix of the post horn gallop because it makes us a laughing stock of the division having such awful music to run out to. We don't need to bring Henry back either, just stick the old Vinyl on and press play as that was fine whilst we were at filbo.
Also, someone correct me if im wrong, but isn't the post horn gallop one of the things about our club to make it unique, i do not know of another team to run out to it.

Peterborough also have the post horn gallop.

Looks like we're not the only club having the pre-match music debate...

I like the PHG, I do object to having 2 unlimited playing right up until KO though

 

[fitz]

the original post horn gallop is crap, the new one is much feckin worse. how about we just announce the team, let the crowd make some feckin noise as i fail to see what this gees them up for, other than a game of hide the sausage

 

[Fox Fan]

Bring back the original or even bring back Henry.


While were at it lets sack the Birch - got I hate him and his fcuking whistle!

The jazzed up Gallop was nowhere near as bad as the awful 90's techno...

Was it just me who thought this but was that the Mortal Kombat theme tune that they played until kick-off? Absolutely awful. I mean was it the players choice or something, because it seemed very odd.

I thought it was Get Ready For This by 2 unlimited. Dunno if that was used as the Mortal Kombat theme too though
