semion 2,192 Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) JC, Micman I can feel the man love coming through. You are of course right. The bar was set back then. Sadly the standard has fallen way below that level, but of course, as always. Buster knows best. Still here we are new year, a new kid ( well You know what I mean) on the block. Hopes are high. Can They deliver..... Over to you Buster its time to walk the walk. Edited March 20, 2018 by semion 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously guys, I'm halfway across the world and speedway people I know here have tears running down their legs laughing so much!Whoever thought this was a great way to inspire/motivate/put the fear into the opposition needs to reconsider when their meds kick in! Yes, I know it's nothing to do with me, I'm long retired from speedway and live in Aus but I still care about the club where I spent many a happy evening on the mic from way back in 1988.Hell we go rid of the war crys in 1990 (sorry Wild Wayne and Mother T!) because they were old hat . . .let along a choral extravaganza. Back in the days of the PL when the club were feared home and away it was 'Welcome to the jungle' that became the parade truck theme tune and even that sounds dated now so, for what it's worth, whoever came up with this idea. . .maybe ask the paying public for once - or as that just stating the blindingly obvious? Wishing everyone a safe and successful season ahead. . . now where did I put my Vera Lynn records???? It does make you wonder, how this anthem was conceived. Unfortunately all to often fans complain 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel Smith 5,661 Posted March 22, 2018 I'd love nothing more than singing on the terraces but never ever ask anyone from Norfolk to think up a chant. Just look at Norwich City, they love 'On The Ball City'. I can't think of a more dreary football chant anywhere in the World. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just look at Norwich City, they love 'On The Ball City'. I can't think of a more dreary football chant anywhere in the World. When I go to Anfield, nobody sings 'you'll never walk alone' louder than I. With 50,000 fans singing, it makes my hair stand on end, and I'm only a supporter. Imagine what that must do for the players.... I'm all for verbal chorus for the fans to cheer. But surely in this day and age we could have something more modern than that new anthem . I'd rather we went back to 1.4.2.4 who the hell R we 4. we use to sing at the Firs 50 odd years ago..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

semion 2,192 Posted March 23, 2018 There is far more than that we have been lacking in recent years Trees. Let’s hope for the wind of change starting in April. Good to see you are back blowing the trumpet again this year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
