I agree to an extent (and I'm 34), but the volume of music at sport is really getting a bit annoying. Stops you being able to talk.
You’ve got me wondering now. The music link will have totally gone over my head.
I’m fairly certain the term (whichever) was used after a game vs Torquay (?) around 2002, when we managed to wind up a certain Gary Brabin (playing for them) to the point he got himself sent off.
Fulham Brighton, both much the same to me.
I remember being it sung predominantly away, in the grim Dolan years. I also recall Adam Pearson trying to make it some sort of anthem of ours too.
Definitely 90s and as you said, in the twilight years at BP.
Sunderland claim they sang “can’t help falling in love with you” first at Boothferry Park after some fans were amusing themselves at the recent passing of Elvis. (From a recent Sunday morning radio 5 segment with Colin Murray off Countdown, interviewing Sunderland fans). No idea what the truth of it is and who was responsible but it a song I remember from going to matches from around that time. Or have I just convinced myself? I also remember a misspelling of AGRO in another chant, that hasn’t survived.
On the DJ before the game - it’s much louder in west upper than in North stand, as I discovered at the Chelsea cup game. Definitely not too loud for me in North.
The Adele song is not one of my favourites, but I’m not against giving it a try. That clip Brady posted was a high tenor 1 voice that most of us won’t have. I’ll be bass, below baritone and low tenor2. Whether that works as a crowd, without Adele being played at the same time will need testing.

The villagers would be up in arms.
They carnt use the slip road anyway at the moment. think what it would be like with all those high powered cars turning right out of there.
Could get messy.
As an aside. My daughter, when she was at Beverley High School , did some baby sitting for the previous owners ( also had to serve sherry to the riders at the hunt whilst they were mounted on their horses. - we didnt know this at the time otherwise she would not have gone!). When it came to payment they said they didnt have any cash and would "drop it in".
It never arrived.
She is 41 now.
Should have placed a Lien against the property but never got around to it. That £20 would be worth a bit now.
Got me thinking about youth exploitation - Whilst our son was looking for work as a condition of Universal Credit he got sent to a job in the kitchen of a restaurant down Butcher Row (he was sent there by the Job Centre). He was told to do the washing up for a week to see if he could do it. after the first night he learnt that he had to do this for a week without pay to see if he was any good.
He never went back.
The restaurant will have just got the next one in. Rinse and repeat. Washing up done without ever having to pay.
Now then, long time no see. Tickton Hall has been empty for a while, don't know how long. If you look on the Hull Live site they have a feature on it and it is truly fabulous with access to the 80 acres of paddock land and outbuildings. The lot is offers of £2m for the Hall in 6.4 acres of its own and £1.25m for the paddock ( the old Beverley Polo club). The Hall's owners sold the Crown and Anchor pub quite recently too, so I hear, which they originally bought to give another access point by the side of the river Hull.
I see your point about the access from the main road but I also hear there are some rumblings about improving the road junctions at a couple of points along this stretch and a public meeting was held only last month so something is happening.
It cannot be any worse then the current bottle neck they have at Mill House Woods Lane with the lane reduced to the width of one car for its full length.
I mentioned the availability of this site because it would make an ideal training ground IMO.
If the owner is seriously looking to add some value to the club with a new training ground in mind I doubt if they would find a better site then this at this price..
I just wish I was in the position to bid for it because I think it is a snip.
As for 'cannot use the slip road' I have no difficulty at all with it and the only people who do seem to be those who don't know how to use one.
I agree with all of that. I was thinking about the small cohort of people who "Just drive on the roads I know" and dont know who how to use the slip road and stop at the junction. They are probably the ones who only ever use their car to go into Beverley. Almost certainly they have never joined a motorway.
Great news about possible junction improvements.
The council would no doubt build into any planning consents and the club could pay for it out of the premier league money.
The pub and the hall are about a mile apart and on opposite sides of the road so don't think that is a possibility .
I haven't made it up. There is a flyover carrying the road over the river Hull and the access was underneath it alongside of the river. It was mainly access for the Hunt but it is access none the less. The main access is off the main road directly into the grounds.
I’ve walked under the bridge from the pub.
Nice walk down the river and back
Then you should join the group that do a walk from the pub carpark at 10am every Sunday. They mix the walks up each week, but often walk to the nature reserve. They normally pop in the pub for a pint afyerwards
The Premier League are installing the VAR equipment from West Ham’s ground into the MKM this week.
