It would be brilliant having a anthem of our own but the hard part would be getting it off the forums and into the terraces.

Bridge over troubled water - S&G



Wire could hire a proper singer not some x factor dog poop one and sing it every game before kick off



[iWhen you're weary

Feeling small

When tears are in your eyes

I will dry them all



I'm on your side

When times get rough

And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down[/i



A song about love and support, appropriate if you love and support the Wire.

we'll need 2 pinters after that, Yed, we'd fill 'em with tears, you big soppy sod (still a top tune, tho)

Imagine 11k Wire fans singing that at a game, that would be powerful, it would have the hairs on your neck standing up, it would make you feel immensely proud to be a wire

OKay Yed. I vote for anything by Meatloaf.



Can't think of anything off the top of my head.



Maybe 'For crying out loud'



[iCan't you see my faded Levis tearing apart. [/i That's pretty much how I feel watching Wire.

Thank you for the music by Abba -- with a very slight tweek



I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore

If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before

But we have a talent, a wonderful thing

'Cause everyone listens when we start to sing

I'm so grateful and proud

All I want is to sing it out loud



So I say

Thank you for the MAGIC, is the song I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy YOU'RE bringing

Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty

What would life be?

Without a song or a dance what are we?

....(or maybe Without out Sunday out, what are we)

So we say thank you for the MAGIC

For giving it to me

now for my final suggestion today...



Platters (or whoever) Only You



[iOnly you can make this world seem right

Only you can make the darkness bright

Only you and you alone

Can thrill me like you do

And fill my heart with love for only you

[/i

Rod Stewart....we are sailing. Great.

I'd rather be seen in a Wigan shirt, than have anything to do with flippin Meatloaf.

An anthem would be great - I'm a season ticket holder at Anfield, and the power of you'll never walk alone is so great, and near impossible to actually messure !!!!!



A few years ago I used to always be on here, banging on about how we're losing all our older, traditional songs. Saints, Leeds & both Hull sides have songs(i.e. marching on together at leeds, don't know what the other clubs songs are called, but I recognise them, when I hear them singing them)



Because our attendance dropped so low in the 90's, then the drums/barmy army moved in, and then we moved grounds and aquired lots of new fans, alot of the older songs were lost.



We should set up some kind of club, to get this going. Maybe a few older wire fans who remember older songs, to get them down, and then maybe arange standing together in the wire end, so that they can start the songs off????



They do things like this at LFC, they also hve a monthly newpaper, called the KOP, and every now and again they publish the lyrics to these kind of songs - maybe that should be done for us !!!!

"We are Wire,

We are Wire,

We are Wire,

Not the Wolves."



In seriousness I fully agree that an anthem is required. I don't like the idea of some singer singing it as that's tacky, but whoever does the PA could play the same song as a matter of routine shortly before the players come out for every game. That could lead to it catching on and it doesn't need to have it's words changed to Warrington words either - You'll Never Walk Alone works fine as it is for example, and it was written for a musical not football. As far as I know Stoke fans just sing Delilah as normal too and they sing it well.



Yed won't thank me for agreeing with him but I love his Bridge Over Troubled Water suggestion.



PS: Drums at sporting events are an atrocity.
