birchfest 401 Posted October 8, 2020 When did the Club stop playing 'Daydream Believer' before the match? I just have memories of the mid-90's (when I was about 8-9) of going to games and always hearing it played, and a section of the Barclay singing their slightly re-worked version. Anyone else remember this? Why did it stop? I just heard it on the radio and it set off the memory of it again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenerationA47 864 Posted October 8, 2020 Don’t know! only heard it once , was at a derby obviously. Always thought it was surprisingly ‘naughty’ from the club Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure I would now, as I’ve become middle aged and boring (back then I was just boring) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIL 1010 5,246 Posted October 8, 2020 It was a pi$$take at George Burley the Scum manager who left in 2002 so obviously no point in singing it after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty much what I was going to say. Not much point in playing it after Burley left Ipswich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faded Jaded Semi Plastic SOB 1,223 Posted October 8, 2020 Not sure when it was dropped from the match day play list but the fans were signing it to Mr Lambert........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarydan23 4,762 Posted October 8, 2020 You say it was naughty of the club, but they also played it in the playoff final at the Millennium Stadium in 2002. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And a while further back (mid to late 60s), Morningtown Ride holds fond memories of pre-match - when did that one get dropped? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
