Doves to record a version of 'Blue Moon' for City

[Simon Le Tom]

I heard it last night, was pretty good. Nothing the team could run out to mind you - the trusted Doves 'sound', although superb doesn't get the blood boiling.

With reference to the "idiots" comment, the only idiots were MCFC for having those little PAs after the game. Everyone just kind of stood around and waited for it to end.

What the club should have done was do the bands before the game and have the parade of legends after the game, allowing the fans to sing our heads off and salute our legends.

Anyone know where I can get a copy of this badboy?

When they play 'Pounding' Don't you think the whole ground should clap there hands to the beat? I know some people do at first but then realise no one else is, so stop!

AND the latest score from Eastlands is...DOVES 1 OASIS 0.

NOEL GALLAGHER’S crew had been sounded out about recording an anthem for Manchester City – but their fellow City fans have nicked an early lead.

Doves have recorded a version of club song Blue Moon which will be played before tonight’s Aston Villa home match.

Drummer ANDY WILLIAMS said: "It’s going to be interesting to see how it goes down. It was flattering to be asked and I hope the City fans like it."

Frontman JIMI GOODWIN has nothing but admiration for Oasis, though, conceding: "I’ll occasionally hear ‘all right Jimi’ at a match, but it’s not like Liam and Noel when they go to a game.

"We just haven’t got that kind of profile."

I can imagine this sounding good. Great band. Hope to hear it tonight.

Is this not the same one they played at the Copenhagen match?

I'm pretty sure that the video for the next Doves single has some fella driving around in a car looking a little forlorn with things. And he has a City sticker in the back window of the car. Which may explain things?

(Yep, I need to get out more)
