If I can clarify one point , if you sing soccer songs , sing the whole songs that would be good , add to the atmosphere , not just 1 or 2 words. Mate I am being sincere ,good on you and your club for all your success. Just make sure you follow them when things turn a bit.


Not sure where this attack on arrogance came from?
None of the Doggies posters in this thread are being arrogant and are people I wouldn't regard as arrogant.
We aren't Johnny Come Lately supporters - we've been through the rough times and are very grateful for the period we're enjoying.

England didn't qualify in '94 so there was no song.

The song for Italia '90 was "World In Motion" with New Order (featuring the ever-delightful John Barnes rap).


Thanks fatal. Turned out it was from 1982. http://www.skysports.com/experts/expert_story/0,19793,12532_2867413,00.html

Yeah. Funny about that.

Its in the Dynasty book.
Of course like most club songs it was originally stolen from another tune.
IIRC in the SANFL Norths song is the only one not stolen and adapted from another clubs.


Wedgie if you could please tell me how in the hell the Eagles club song is stolen from another club. Which club would this be.

EHL, we've been through it a while back, CD came up with a few and the rest of us added to them, the one that always springs to my mind is South Sydney, Man U too I think.
