Quo have just got a mention on the Womens Euro final. RAOTW was being played loudly over the tannoy, then Gabby Logan says 'Status Quo, I think it's time to move on'. Obviously not a fan, I guess me lending her my Piledriver album was probably a bad idea!

Funny - alot of media types want all history erased and everyone over 50 to die off. Stupid thing to say really.
Get rid of Sweet Caroline and Twist and Shout as well.
Appropriate her name is Logan - check out the movie.

The way it came across to me was directed at the Lioness and the team. A play on Status Quo ( everything remains the same )
In other words Time to kick on for the team now they are European champs.

I was at Wembley with my daughter for the Euro final. What a fabulous day that was. It was great to see The Lionesses celebrating with Rockin' over the Tannoy. Great atmosphere and will never forget it.
I doubt very much that Gabby L was having a pop at Quo, a bit of over-thinking by some folk I fear. Football songs/chants etc are full of oldies as such. In fact current Arsenal fans have incorporated 'Saka and Emilie Smith-Rowe' into a sing-a-long version of Rockin'. Gabby did at least know it was Status Quo!
Newcastle FC are still playing Mark Knopfler's 'Going Home -Local Hero' over the Tannoy just before kick-off.

Just been mentioned at the Euro athletics by Steve Cram " I dont know why the Gsrmans like Status Quo but they play them (RAOW) everytime they win" |

Well, it's happened again. After the last race of the European Athletic Championship in Munich ( womens 4x100 metres relay since you asked), it was won by Germany. Over the tannoy RAOTW was played very loudly with the big home crowd singing along to it. The male commentator says ' Its Status Quo again, I dont know why the Germans like them so much'?. I could give him chapter and verse answer if he likes. I have also heard WYW played loudly over the tannoy as well.I am guessing Backwater or Big Fat Mama would be a bit too much for the athletics audience!

I think BFM would be problematic. Or Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls.

Or Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls. ... although if you check where the camera focusses after a women's race or during women's field events (pole vaulters and triple jumpers take a bow) you would guess that those songs are being played over the cameraman's headphones. I know it's wrong and I really do appreciate their sporting prowess but I can't stop myself being from the 70s sometimes! By the way, did you hear about the bloke who saw a sportsman carrying a long pole and asked "Are you a pole vaulter?". The answer was "No, I'm a german and how do you know my name is W(v)alter?" Look, I can only apologise!  |

Ant, I couldn't find a suitable Benny Hill clip, but I'm sure you will enjoy this?!  |

On the day we were impressed that sections of German fans at the Euro final didn't leave the stadium en masse at the final whistle and stayed for the duration of the after-match celebrations. Though perhaps it was a case of the German fans waiting for Rockin' to blast out of the stadium speakers! Rockin' played loudly at sporting events clearly divides Quo fans but maybe the track has the power to re-unite Europe?! (was going to say re-unite the 'world' but probably a bit ambitious) |
