You're comparing apples with pears and I for one am glad I'm in with the apples. The day Ten German Bombers or the theme to the Dam Busters or the Bouncey comes to Ravenhill is the day I send my season ticket back.

Having never heard of "Ten German Bombers" I foolishly looked it up & now hate Saracens even more. :thumleft: Result.

As for the Bouncey, I'm far too aged and riddled with pains for that bullshite. That leaves the Dambusters, I know all about Barnes Wallace & his ingenuity but as for sporting application, I think I'll remain ignorant, there is only so much hatred for Saracens one man can cope with. :D

I thought the band were outstanding, possibly their best performance of the season.

As for the new music when we score a try, magic, I was doing a one man bouncy in my seat. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

All in all, musical heaven today.

Have to agree. The band seemed to pick up the occasion with much more sensitivity than usual and once or twice they started and we all followed.. I'm not yet convinced about the post-scoring music but more than willing to give it a go.

How less annoying are the band when you've had a drink and your team is walloping the banditos, found myself clapping along to "I'll tell me ma" near the end.

Have said it before when Ulster are playing well the band and thon eejit Sparky are bearable (pardon the pun) though that chube from Q radio still makes me cringe every time he opens his mouth, seriously leave the kids and the coaches alone and let them enjoy their 10 minutes in peace and another thing spend 5 minutes before the game learning how to pronounce the oppositions names :duh: On the subject of the minis yesterday a special mention to the kids, parents, coaches and everyone else who helps with those special needs teams to bring us some much enjoyable entertainment, Outstanding >appl >appl >appl

Team announcement was back to the cringeworthy again yesterday with mispronunciation of both Kearneys and the attempt at Nacewa was atrocious.
