I was eating my dinner in a corporate hospitality box before last night's game when the big screen in the ground started showing a montage of recent goals scored by the home team. Of all the sports soundtracks that they could have chosen - some of them by geniuses, apparently - what they actually chose was The Ecstasy of Gold. And not a cover, either.
Newcastle isn't my club, but I'm warming to them...
I do hope so - I have a client/friend who insists that we go to see all Leeds v Newcastle matches and we haven't been in the same division for some years.
That's cool (probably Rafa's doing) I've heard some JW a few times...either Duel of the Fates from PHANTOM MENACE or his 1984 Olympic Fanfare and Theme (which the bloody mancs played...of all people!!!).
Love the z cars theme at goodison. Just dont like the team. And they play same at Watford too. Quite what the connection is and why watford nicked it i have no idea!

Watford started playing it in 1963, apparently, (shortly after Everton introduced it) because their then manager liked it and asked for it to be played - and they started a long unbeaten run. The manager was Bill McGarry - who I associate with Wolves rather than Watford.
You looked that up, didnt you? To sound authoritative? Go on, admit it!! Next you will be telling us that Goldfinger is banal, you wont read a book unless its got a dust jacket on, cant watch a film unless its blu-ray and that farenheit 476 is a work of genius!!

Yes, I did look it up, as my use of the word "apparently" was intended to imply. I'm not so vain as to claim to know it all, nor so lazy as to wait for others to do it for me...
ps You appear to have raised the ignition point of paper by 25 degrees or so, but you know that. Thumbs up.
