It was mentioned the other week by a director who (KM)! that red red robin was boring and they were thinking of getting rid of it!

We'll this resulted in it being sang numerous times out in Belgium to show this said director that we weren't having it :)

If you like it and want it to stay before kickoff it might be time to sing up lads!

Thoughts?

    I always sing along at the start of games. It's one of the few things I enjoy about the pre-match build up in the ground (which is why I don't tend to get to the ground before the players leave the tunnel). God forbid we replace it with some jumped up trance music like they have at Man City.

    Is this some kind of sick joke? The song is legendary and part of the fabric of the club.

    C4FC4L1f3, don't be shy. The fool who suggested this needs to be named and shamed!!
  • its my ringtone ,get some funny looks sometimes

    My ringtone too but not so unusual in these parts as it's the club song for Hull Kingston Rovers too. Doesn't endear me to the other half of Hull though.

    It must be saved - end of!

    Isn't that when Derek Hales turned round and said..."no, but I am Mickey..." and it all kicked off?? ;-)

    It will be forever a tribute to the great late song

  • I have to admit that it irritates me a bit. It is a bit wet - I do wonder whether it is worth a goal to the away team and explains lack of form at home :-)

    Why why why does the Covered End sing Carnival de Paris over the top of it? Madness.

    If that goes, then I really will consider never going to a match again. Just can't happen! I love the song.

    I don't understand it. The players don't get fired up by it? Players shouldn't need a song to fire them up. Opposition fans don't find it imposing? Oh, but trashy Europop will work. It doesn’t work for us fans? Try surveying us, I’m sure the Trust would be happy to help.

    In short, on a scale of 1-10 I’d give this idea a **** off.
