I put this in a grinding gears thread. I cannot stand teams that use pop songs to come out to. It really makes me cringe. Hi Ho Wolverhampton uuugh Hi Ho Sheffield Wednesday uugh.
I understand your sentiment. Are you saying the team comes out to no music at all...just the roar of the crowd?
To my knowledge it has been Macnamaras band. It’s traditional and synonymous with the club.
So effectively popular music from another generation. I personally am not a big fan of those and want something that all the fans can sing along to. I find most of our songs boring and un-motivational as they fade too quickly.
Never mess with tradition.
Yes it did
Ok maybe for the West Brom or Burnley type games the atmosphere was poor. But if you think a pop song for the players to come out to is going to make the atmosphere better throughout the game. I’d seriously have my doubts.
Did I say anything about pop songs? I've been to games where the fans cheered a pigeon on the pitch, because there was nothing else to get excited about. The best atmosphere was always night games and I'm sure part of that was there were a lot less kids and tourists.
Read the rest of the thread and who my responses were to. @FibreOpticJesus
Maybe it's the football on the field. Expecting much better atmospheres this season
That's a great song, good choice. But not sure how it'd be as a football song.
Not one I know. But I’m not sure I want to sing a song with lose in the title. The song needs to be an anthem and Sometimes has this in spades. I remember the crowd singing this song as we left the Ali Palais and walking down the escalators onto the platform at Brixton station after they performed at The Academy. Goose bumps when the whole crowd singing it.
