InverAlly Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Hi Folks, I'm afraid you're going to have to put up with my questionable taste in music, gaffes and mispronunciations this season as I've accepted an invitation to return as regular announcer. David will still be about filling in when I can't make it and assisting where required. We will continue using the @mortontannoy twitter account which you can DM or Tweet your announcement requests. Non-twitterers can email me direct inverally@hotmail.com or email the club admin@gmfc.net. We are hoping to mix things a bit this season with regards to pre-match/half-time features which we are looking at and hope to develop in the coming weeks. One subject which regularly comes up is goal celebration music. I received a message from Graham our SLO this week as he'd been asked the question. It's a difficult one which everyone has varying opinions on, I'm 50/50. The choice of music, the timing of hitting the button, embarrassment if goal is disallowed etc. The view from trackside can make it difficult to make a quick decision. Jim McAlister has been asked to gather the players views on it. If they're "up for it" we will take it further, resulting in a fans vote. More on this to follow... As a nod to DDF I've decided the players will run out to Live is Life tomorrow, and tomorrow only, never to be played again. So please don't despair, it will not be the regular run out tune, that is also being discussed. If anyone has any ideas on any aspect of related business please let me know either on this thread or drop me an email. Here's hoping for an enjoyable and successful season. Cheers Ally p.s. Can admin do some sort of link to this topic on Twitter please? I have no idea! I will copy to Facebook pages. Mon eh Ton #TL:DR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deego Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 No fucking music. Let the drummer do the music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LargsTON Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Your return is the worst kept secret in Scottish football and the real reason I've renewed my season ticket. I hate goal music though, kills the moment for me. "CORNBEEF IS A BELLEND" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoonTon Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I'm not a fan of goal music, but if it's going to happen then only when the players are returning to the halfway line for the kickoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
port-ton Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 No Goal music for me. When we score is about the only time Morton fans make noise and sing these days so no need to ruin it. Wouldn't mind comedy sound effects during the game though e.g. the noise of someone slipping on a banana peel if a player falls over etc. Good people will do good things, bad people will do bad things, but only with religion do good people do bad things!

Madton Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Welcome back. Agreed, no need for goal music, too real radio for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneCornetto Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 One of the best games I've been to was Kilmarnock at Cappielow in 2007. We had goal music that night and the place was jumping. I'm all for it if it helps the atmosphere, but no more 'Rawhyde' pre match please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_M Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 And no more 'we follow Morton from Cappielow, we're the pride of Greenock town' to play us out the gates when we have just been pumped at home by some bumpkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bewilderedbeast Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Have to say it really gets on my tits watching home fans celebrate to some catchy tune or other when they score against us, so for that reason alone I'd have a bit of goal music. As for run out music, I always liked Everton's Z Cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
port-ton Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 To be fair was it Chelsea Dagger we used to sing along to back in the day? That was alright at the time. Did Falkirk not play is this the way to Amarillo when they scored? I'll take a hard pass on something like that. Good people will do good things, bad people will do bad things, but only with religion do good people do bad things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EanieMeany Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Goal music is pish. Stick on Supersonic for the teams coming out. AWMSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ton in Shawlands Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Goal music, jesus. As a long term music & football fan my mind freezes just seeing those two words used as a 'thing'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 If we have to have goal music it should be Guile's theme from Street Fighter cos that goes with everything. Peter Weatherson is the greatest player since Ritchie, and should be assigned 'chairman for life' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for run out music, I always liked Everton's Z Cars. Z Cars is my ringtone and the anthem of Tony Bellew. Dunno if I'd like to see Morton coming out to it tbh.
