New Order as football song ? — Forum Archive

15 Apr 2002, 06:34

Most football teams come out onto the pitch to a tune, many of which have become synonymous with that club. for example Liverpool ("You'll Never Walk Alone"), Everton ("Z Cars"), Man U ("Shit Ground No Fans"), Worcester City ("Time Is Tight").

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to select appropriate New Order tracks for various sporting occasions, in each instance giving a justification. It needn't be football (and yes guys from the States, we are talking real football here, not that poncey padded gridiron shite you boys play :) )

They should belt out "Murder" when CandytheBear's St Kilda run out onto the field because you know traditionally that's what they're about to cop.

:blackeye:

One premiership in 80-odd years and some of the worst floggings ever suffered by any team.

Bizzare Love Triangle when North Melbourne play ... I think only the Oz folk will get that one ...

15 Apr 2002, 08:41

Sorry, should of explained the above ... Wayne Carey who plays AFL for North Melbourne was recently caught out having an affair with his teammates wife ... Was found doing the dirty with her at a party in the bathroom ... Not that I know anything about AFL ... We play Rugby League in NSW !!

15 Apr 2002, 08:46

With his own team mates wife :nonono: Reminds me of Tommy Docherty (Man Utd boss in the 70's) he got caught out with one of his coaching staff's wife - he won the FA Cup and was then forced to resign!

15 Apr 2002, 08:50

Yeah, it was with his teammate and best friends wife. Im thinking, best friends no more ...

I used to do the PA for City - it was a rule that they had to come out to Time Is Tight, but I'd always play Regret at half time, along with a selection of other typically topical choons - Oh Shit by the Buzzcocks once when they were 2-0 down at the break :)

Have New Order done a song called 'thrown away promotion after fucking up at the last minute?'. If so, Mansfield can come out to that in the future.

"Every Little Counts," for any impending backstory moments to do with the mounting rivalry in F1 between golden boy Schuey and JP Montoya. :laugh:

Absolute quality mate - best response I've seen for days !!

Alright, a few years ago a friend of mine who played on a youth football team went to England to play some of the teams over there. He brought back some jerseys, and gave me a Tottenham shirt, and I've sort of followed them as best I can ( Soccernet and Fox TV over here). As a result, one choice NO lyric presents itself, from Regret.

Just wait till tomorrow I guess that's what they all say Just before they fall apart

re akinbaye - when he was still at bristol city there was some massive graffiti (about 20 feet high letters) drawn on a cliff on one of the roads out of bristol (the portway, by clifton suspension bridge) saying don't go ade.

16 Apr 2002, 07:25

& much like his performances at leicester - it was not very effective & didnt stay long - its gone now.

16 Apr 2002, 08:18

We had him on loan at Brighton (from Norwich, I think) in about 94 or 95 time. He didn't score for us either.

We were offered him on loan. We chose a wax effigy of the youth team centre-half instead. He didn't score either.

16 Apr 2002, 09:06

I bet the effigy could run faster, though.

16 Apr 2002, 09:10

Originally posted by Old Blue I bet the effigy could run faster, though.

Well in all honesty he was a bit shit. Used to bottle it at the prospect of a match. I think he's now in an Indian restaurant in Brum.
