Pre-match music

[Coach]

Can I just say that it has gone seriously downhill. Whoever gave the Everton DJ a copy of Garageband should be shot. That "mix" of 5 seconds each of about 12 different Everton songs that has replaced the full version of "We're Forever" is disgusting.

MORE to the point - can we please **** off with the RE-spec Handshake if it means that Z-cars is compromised.

1. I want to see the Everton team RUN out onto the pitch.

2. I want to hear the full 2.07 of this as they run out

not have it cut short in favour of some ersatz ELP version of a Roman Emperor's procession.

I couldn't agree more.

I hate that "handshake" bollox.

We all do I think, but Premier League rules, init.

Handshake thing is pointless anyway, if you're going to break someone's leg shaking his hand before the game won't stop you.

 

[Coach]

We could still run out the full version and then do the handshake later, it wouldn't take much thought to do that surely?

Why knacker Z-cars?

It's to do with copyright. Helps the case with dodgy live broadcasts as the music is copyrighted. I think.

If enough people complain to the club I'd like to think they'd take the suggestions on board and change it. Someone complain for me, I can't be arsed :blink:

 

[GwladysBlue]

I said that to my Dad yesterday funny enough. That pre-match handshake pisses me off and it is bloody pointless. Having your team run towards the fans is much better.

 

[HibbertsLeftFoot]

The awful thing is the 'round the ground' camera a few minutes before kick off. Absolutely saps the atmosphere out of the build up.

It's a joke really, etc..

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I actually thought the montage they put on the big screen just before the players came out was pretty good, it got me more pumped for the kick off either way. The music that follows Z-Cars is the Premier League "anthem" that plays at every other ground when the players shake hands.

 

[MickM86]

Z cars sounded low yesterday, I want to hear those drums bang around the stadium at full blast.

Another thing that annoys me is that the people who sit around me always arrive late, I want to see the stands full when And If You Know Your History comes on.

I also hated it when I seen fans leaving early yesterday, come the final whistle the stands were emptying. We had just won 4-0 and played scintillating football!

 

[mrb85]

The prematch handshake should take place in the centre circle so that Z cars is played for longer. Chelsea do this, so should we.

 

[ijjysmith]

If these pre match bits are the most concerning thing at the moment then we can be sure things are going well!

WE SHOULD SET A HORSE ON FIRE AND MAKE IT RUN AROUND THE STADIUM

 

[MickM86]

I reckon we should just play Uncle Murda before kick off:

We're on the slippery slope towards playing viva espagna after every goal, whilst the goalscorer dons the club sombrero.
