Bring Back the Bell ?

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

I had trouble getting into the ground ( tickatek ) and missed the players running on . I saw a message on Demonland today saying Bring Back the Bell . Surely they have not stopped this essential

calling of supporters that OUR team is coming onto the ground !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate unnecessary noise like GOAL ,GOAL ,GOAL  BUT IF it is true it is a threat to civilisation as we know it . Ha ha .

I listen the the AC/DC clip regularly and stop when the singing starts .   I love it and want it louder ( I am 61 ) .

Nothing I could find on google so will relax and find out on Sunday .

Go Dees .

Nobody's interested in hearing about your IQ, Craig.

With all due respect Hutchy you do not need to start a new thread for every thought that comes into your head.

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

Good one demon . I have some a lot of good laughs today . Do you know the answer or just having fun ?

 

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

I take your point and will stop AFTER the weekend . Sorry ! Please put me on mute !

Hmmm. I smell a ? 

Methinks there’s something rotten in Denmark. 
Never mind me, just thinking aloud. ?

[Deemented Are Go! 3,677]

Go home Craig, you’re drunk.

What about the bugler Hutchy, keen for your thoughts on that pregame that is no longer. 

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

Good question re the bugler . Still trying to think how to smuggle it into the G . Even the smallest bugle does not fit " where the sun don't shine " . Any suggestions 13 ? What do you mean by " pregame that is no longer ?

Does anyone know the answer to the original question ?

Shrek is an Ogre, not a troll. ?

Love the enthusiasm Hutchy, but all these threads are the equivalent of a meeting that could have just been an email 

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

Sorry Paul you are right . On a another topic a few others think I am a troll so , in jest , I signed off Shrek Troll/ Ogre .

My mistake .

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

I prefer face to face meetings smokey . It will be all over soon and this tread will exorcise Hutchy .

The tread would be much shorter if you all stopped avoiding the question . If you don't know no need to contribute .

Muting me is another option .

Tongue in cheek mate, no malice intended 

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

The second sentence was for everyone 13 . No malice felt by me at all ! Go Dees .

[Fork 'em 6,983]

With the way we're playing ATM coming out to the pre-game bells would be brilliant.

[Craig Hutchinson 126]

That is sooooo funny . If ANYONE messes with OUR Bell we can all become Senor Ding Dong's !

I will !

Not wanting to derail your thread Hutchy... but I’m more interested in the question - How early is too early to sing the song (our song, A Grand Old Flag)?

I sit with a rabid singer, and we love going early when we’re up in the last with a Chorus or two of it’s a grand ol flag, to bring the boys home with. But some, MFC supporters around us will look at us like we’re insane, inviting defeat or embarrassing ourselves (all valid possibilities). Sometimes others join in, and it feels really good...

in as far as singing traditions to be established, this “the early singing of the club song” gets my vote.

thoughts?

I think the issue was that Carlton were also using AC/DC's Hell's Bells

Never ever too early IMO

But the best time to start is when the opposition  supporters start leaving for the early tram. They know when its a lost cause.

So take your que from them. You gotta love it!!

It would appear that Hutchy’s raising of this question has doomed the bell. That would make him figuratively the bell’s end.
