| Don't know about you but I get really annoyed at the "don't swear" preaching we get at every game. What a pleasure it was then yesterday when the PA system played all of Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name", complete with the repetition of "F*ck you I won't do what you tell me."
To top it all, the new announcer then actually did the "Rugby League is a family game - don't swear" speech straight afterwards! Highlight of the most frustrating day I've ever had as a London fan.
Incidentally - in case the announcer visits this forum we have Interchanges in our game not Replacements. And learn people's names before the game - Mark O'Melly!!

| Well maybe this might make someone consider the quite dreadful noise that apparently passes for the music played out over the PA. Whatever it is that is played as the teams are preparing to kick off is especially awful.

Had to laugh at that, no-one cottoned on for the swearing that lasts a while at the end of the song.
The Leeds game a few weeks back was the best for the new anouncer; Danny Bude-erus. Please just someone give the guy a sheet of pronunciations before hand, it is a little embarassing.

| Having drunken stag parties roaming around is not exactly good for the family image either. On a risk assessment basis we are not far from a PR disaster. But hey ho we need the money.................

You can't have a go at that music - it's Motorhead!

It's make your mind up time Quins.....either it's a family sport or it's any money from anyone......you can't have both.

Not to everybody's taste though, Jeff. I'm with Grundy.
Out of interest, what is it? I've managed to train my ears to tune into none of the cacophony of sounds played over the PA. Hence I also didn't hear the obscenities referred to with puzzling pleasure by the O.P.

| It is easy to go on Itunes to check the lyrics of any song, the questionable ones are flagged up. I know cos the Skolars insist on any song that is to be played is checked before broadcast.

Presumably there's no way that Eamon's 'F**k it (I don't want you back) will get past the censors then!!

It's "The Game" by Motorhead. Last year (or was it the year before?) they used "Kickstart my Heart" by Motley Crue. Just out of interest I googled the lyrics for both songs and surprisingly there are no naughty words in either of them!
The trouble with playing loud music at sports events is you've go the whole spectrum of people in terms of musical taste and whatever you play you're always going to irritate a fair few people. Personally I can't stand rap/dance/europop etc. At least we haven't reached the same state as ice hockey where every stoppage during the game has to be filled by a ten second blast of recorded music.

I'm pushing for Metallica's So What against Bradford.
What seems funniest about this is no-one at the club seems to notice.'"
I'm sure I've got the original version of "So What" by the Anti Nowhere League on a vinyl disc somewhere at home.
I usually feel like signing this at our matches these days:

Just change the word "job" to "team".

| While we are on about music, what was the classical sounding piece that they use to play just before kick off last season. It started off slowly and built up speed (best description I can give)

[url=http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/moulin-rouge-collectors-edition/id62020932Closing Credits: Bolero[/url (iTunes Preview) from the Moulin Rouge album. Scroll down the bottom to preview.
Have played it every year I think since we've been at the Stoop. At least since 2007.
