Teams and their music

[cityontheup]

I have been wondering how particular songs or pieces of music are associated with particular teams, for example ourselves with Blue moon, I have to be honest and admit I don’t know how that has become attached to us, can someone explain. I have added other examples below, if you know the history behind how they got picked up by the teams please let me know and add any others you can think of. 1) West Ham - I’m forever blowing bubbles...2) Liverpool - You’ll never walk alone...3) Everton - Z cars theme... What about making new ones up like the Scum and the Neighbours theme....or Yesterday by the Beatles

Honolulu wednesday was adopted after a sheff wed end of season fancy dress away game.

watford use z cars because the manager liked it in the 60's and everton because it was set in liverpool.

Annies song is disputed by sheff U and rotherham but fuck knows how that came about.

“Liquidator”, it’s a right tune that
