The fact that Ulster can never, ever get anything right. At my instigation, music was brought to the bars of Ravenhill a few seasons back. It started ok, with the prematch qunes being fairly subdued when folk, not FOLK, are meeting their pals for a chat and swally, but yesterday I marched my retinue out of the Grandstand bar as some talentless gowl was playing guitar to a series of backing tracks including women's voices as he stood alone, the volume was entirely too loud and people were truly pi$h'd off with it. Turn it down clowns, nobody gives a toss after the match but before is for chat.
Don't tell me there's a connection between your reasonable request and the abomination of music during breaks in play? A few bars of anything while an injury is tended to or a tmo decision is being made is just wrong. If you are in any way responsible, you're off the Christmas card list for good.
While I'm on a roll,n a similar theme, I watched a bit of the Westies in SA. How long have they been having commercial breaks DURING the match? Not at half time... during a break in play, at least I assume they had the decency to wait for a break.
NO Solids, that innovation was done without prior consultation with yours truly. I did perk up when I heard the old Van Morrison/ Bill Clinton epic, Days like this, but sadly I have to agree with you, all unnecessary............ but LOOK..... I did wonder was it an attempt to rein in the worst excesses of the horrible band, not The Band.
I think that would be a trade-off I could live with. To never again hear "I'll tell me Ma" would be awesome, I've grown to hate it. It may surprise some but the "Belfast City" is just a local adaptation and the horrible thing is thought but not proven to have originated in Lionelland, albeit it appears only Irish artists/Influenced artist have ever recorded it, including sadly, the aforementioned Sir George Ivan Morrison.
As for the Road to Amarillo, or as we call it in Spain Amarillo, translating to yellow, Christ sur une bicyclette, I loathe it.
