Heard a song on the Radio that instantly reminded me of Oakwell in the 70's

Stood on the Brewery Stand on a cold wet and windy Tuesday evening, John Peachey dancing to it

Rock Me Gently by Andy Kim... anybody remember it ??

What tunes remind you all of Oakwell ??

 

In the 70's ? Down down deeper and down.

 

Footsteps- Womack and Womack. Ten years of non stop playing!

 

Don't Cry For Me Argentina by Julie Covington......that was

the only damn song they seemed to have. It evokes memories of a wet, near-empty ground, night match under floodlights, smells of Albert Hirst's pork pies from the kiosk at the back of the West Stand, chants of "Iley Out" and sheer depression, and being able to walk from the back of the Ponte all the way round to a crash-barrier halfway up the stack on the Spion Kop!!!!!
I must be getting old, and have started to think of Graham Pugh's tache for some strange reason...........and Kenny Brown's.

Kenny Brown- theres a blast from the past, skinniest legs I have ever seen, used to work at Barnsley College after he stopped playing. Always a trier was Kenny Brownff

 

I remember Rochdale doing a warm up to "The day we went to Bangor" at Oakwell. They then went on to beat us 3-0 and the telly cameras were there.

Also always fondly remember the bloke on the tannoy introducing "braaaaaaaataaaas" by Art Garfunkle.

 

RE: All supplied by Cassa Disco of corse

That's Casa Disco mate - Used to work there! Great times

 

That Argentine melody was hammered to death around 1978.

 

Stopped shopping in Barnsley after EGS and then Casa Disco shut down.

Our Price mi arse!

 

What about that Bloody Organ Music

That Keith Barret or was it Borret used to play. Like having your teeth drilled with a Kango SDS.

 

Keith Borrett

Now there is a name from the past..

 

That france 98 tune

played a lot during 98/99/2000.

 

Can't imagine old Keith

Shouting over the tannoy system "Spion Kop , Paddock , Ponty End , give it up for the SSuuuuuuper Reeeedddss !!!"

 

At least Borrett, didnt have Half TIme Results!!!

The blokew we have now is a clown

 

Spot on

Not a patch on old Keith .

 

I once remember the Reds playing Chesterfield in the league cup in the late 70's.Just before the end of the first half, whilst the match was still in progress," Your the one that I want" by John Travolta & Olivia Newton John blasted out over Oakwell, Funny as ****.

 

That Rochdale defeat.....

The Ponty chanting "You can shove your effing cameras up your arse!"
