When we visit other clubs, before the match they play music, songs etc that encourage participation from the crowd. It creates a “bonding” atmosphere. Clubs play fun music when they score. Can we do something similar? Rap music doesn’t inspire togetherness, we need songs like Hey Baby, Silver Lining.
I know the youngsters will be horrified at the thought of sixties,seventies music but at least everyone can join in. I have tried to join in with rap but it is just a monotonous drumming. I expect some abuse because I don’t get rap. But there must be something we can do to create an atmosphere.

Dont get me started. I admire the work Jim does in the main but that (c)rap music he plays used to do my head in. As far as I could see it was someones personal taste being foisted on the public.

But isn't that exactly what you and Lady Robin want to do? Foist your personal tastes on others.

I used to sit in the CF stand, and if you look at the average age of the regulars not many used to appreciate the bashing our eardrums got every game. I dont go now (health issues), so I cannot comment on what it is like now.

I am not trying to tell anyone exactly what to play.

Doesn’t matter what is played as the CF sound system is inaudible.
