Good God, what have they done with that? Why the need for some cheesy 80's style singer? They could have just stuck the Holte Ender's efforts over the music. Appalling.

This whole thing (scarves as well) was a recipe for an embarrassing disaster right from the start.

Somebody has to find a way of sabotaging the PA system (that bits that still work) by about 3.45 on Sunday.

Failing that - call the game off, give Newcastle the points, and lets all go to West Ham with some of our credibility still in place.

That is shit. The intro was promising but then it turned into some US MOR wank. Fuck me, I hope they don't play it on Sunday, we'll be a laughing stock. I can't think of anything less inspiring than that bilge to be honest. Anyone brave enough to tell the General that it's shit and should be accidentally mislaid and never looked for again?

I'm gutted that it's so fucking shit, and some knobber got paid to come up with that!

Totally agree, it was fine until the singing started. Why can't we have a loud and proud Sabbath type version?

Ouch.

Still, if everyone shouts along then it might sound......not too bad. And if everyone learns the words then they can remove the cheesy vocalist. And then the backing track. And then all of it.

The mix is all wrong. I can understand why they might need to embellish it a bit to okay over the PA but that effort just kills it.

It's not often they say anything funny but a bluenose has sent me a txt about this, titled "Alarm bells are ringing".

Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans, what on EARTH were they thinking?  Lerner has lost it, it's the only answer.  Every single thing they've done this season has been an utter shambles.

That final version is cringey so theres only one thing for it, we need to sing our own bells are ringing at the top of our voices when it's played so you can't hear it.

The back beat is pure 90's
Reminds me of that fucking D:ream song 'Things can only get better.'

As Chris said, the mix is all wrong, it makes it sound like everybody is pissed.

What's wrong with a hearty, "Shit on the City"? Has to be better than this dire mess.
