OldBiscuit Not Caroline! My ex missus is called oxf*rd oxf*rd c*nting caroline. How about 'DA! DA! DA!' as in the Pepsi advert. Nice simple lyrics that no one can fail to learn, and, its catchy, and no matter how hammered you are, you can still mumble it. Simple eh?


Poor girl don't you think it's bad enough her being called F*cking F*cking C*nting Caroline without you having a pop?

Nameist.

Has no-one yet realised that we played that dire song last week and subsequently lost our unbeaten at home record. :roll: It's a bad omen. :wink:

I would really like to have a club anthem but the problem is people wont sing it. We've got to try and get the crowd singing it on Sunday and maybe it will catch on.

I was happy that they played this for the Charlton game but why oh why do they suddenly drop the music level so that hardly anyone can hear it? The music accompanying the video segment is quite loud and always gets people going a bit - so why don't they just keep it loud? No one is going to start singing it unless it's LOUD damnit!

Agree with what Schards says here: http://hobnob.royals.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=52686

I hope that Saturday was the last time we will hear it at a Reading game. Y25 joined in? No, a few people went duh duh duh after the Sweet Caroline line :roll:

A great Roy Plumley moment: you can choose this crap if you insist but I shall fade it out at the first opportunity.

Whatever happened to england_away? Will be a shame if he never gets to see his vision brought to life.

I voted for Kevin Girdler's Sing For The Royals because I'm a traditional old fart, but I do like Sweet Caroline. Be great to hear the fans singing it!
