Blackpool have to appologsie for song

They faced Bradford at home today and played the song "we didnt start the fire"

 

What the f*ck is wrong with the world these days?

They obviously weren't having a dig about something that happened THIRTY years ago.

 

I think the DJ was being a bit mischievous IMO. A fine for the club though?

 

******* disgraceful if there are any consequences for Blackpool.

 

I think it's pretty insensitive myself. In the same way you wouldn't play Leaving on a Jet Plane if you played Man Utd. I dare say the fans took it in good humour........

 

Unless it was just a genuine mistake. I once played 'What a beautiful day' in a club the day Diana died...I didn't do it on purpose, i just liked the song and only realised once somebody had pointed it out.

 

Even if it's a genuine mistake, it's still about a sore subject. If I put my foot in my mouth, I'd say sorry. I'm not in the business of being offended on someone else's behalf, but I do think this warranted a statement from Blackpool. It doesn't deserve a fine tho'.

 

oh yes, an apology for a mistake is appropriate, which they have done. i don't think it should go any further now.

 

And it wasn't Bradford or Bradford fans who complained. It was actually the Blackpool fans who said it was insensitive.

 

Aberdeen DJ / Announcer was sacked when he played "Who let the dogs out" when Rangers took to the field.

Now that was funny. But the Blackpool one? Hmm.

 

Surely Billy Joel is the one who should apologise for that song!
