The op is changing his mind every few posts. Everytime someone points out we've sang it for decades - "I know, I'm just starting a provocative thread" (banning offence by the way). Then someone else says it's too slow - "yes, that's what I mean".

Your initial problem with it was that it was scouse. Now it's just too sad.

never let it be said that i am not contrary, hehe.

i had a kippax season ticket, early 80's onwards,
i've sung the chant countless times, it is indeed a very special chant,
i'm not saying we don't own the chant,
but what is the point in playing a fucking beatles song when nobody joins in?

it is a sad scouse song & in my opinion doesn't lift the players or the crowd.
shirley there are other songs that would do the job better,
just sayin'.
 
here's a sad scottish song that we sing a wonderful chant to the tune of

and thankfully we don't play the original over the tannoy before kicking off or i'd be asking...

what the fuck have we got to do with rod stewart?

It most certainly was, that night will go down as one of my best experiences at a football match ever, it even compares to 93.20, but if there was a poll, what would you go for that night, Hey Jude or Wonderwall? I'll start, Wonderwall for me. ontent://media/external/file/28695c

what the fuck have we got to do with oasis?
oh, hold on...








i wouldn't have any problem with the rousing part of this song being played over the tannoy before the second half kicks off, rather than the fucking beatles.

Scousers are world renowned for nickin' stuff. Time they had summat o' theirs pilfered and ending up on this end of the East Lancs for once. Payment for all the stereos they've nicked!

Nickin stuff: YNWA being a case in point. Mind you, the song was sung in the musical carousel to comfort the recently widowed wife of a theif.

Second case in point that ridiculous song they sing with the same tune as the fields of athenry which is about errm... A theif who gets caught and deported.

Shirley there is a theme developing here.

Couple of clash songs they might want to try next:

Police & thrives
Bank robber
 
Would we even have all those Oasis songs repeatedly on loop wherever we go if it wasn't for The Beatles ( a band acknowledged by Oasis as being very influential to them)

One of my favourite bands (Oasis) but it's fucking overkilled at the stadium, in Mary D's, in some random Irish bar last week in Turin they just threw on the same Oasis hits....

No wonder the club have funded music projects with CITC as they are probably desperate for some new bands to associate with the club.

a fair point indeed, brother.

what song would you like to hear before the second half kicks off?

The sound of silence - Simon and garfunkel [emoji6]

I personally don't want anything pre kick off for the 2nd half.... Just a more coordinated effort between 1894 and the 50,000 or so blues in other sections.

The 1st half is fine with Right here, right now.... Then we should all break into a Bluemoon YSMSA.
Nothing else.

If beer was allowed to be consumed on the terraces atmosphere would be better as every man and his dog is still on the concourse pre-game supping, and just as 2nd half is about to kick off... People are still crawling back to their seats.

This is the real issue... Alcohol service.

Finally at full time the club should implement a Juventus style appraisal for the fans with players linking and running towards everyone... This will keep plenty of people in the ground at the end.

you raise some very valid points.

the very fact that people are still on the concourse, or making their way back,
may actually be the reason the club feel the need to seemingly create an atmosphere by playing an old faithful.
as you say, this problem would more easily be solved by the club sorting the drinkers out quickly,
so that they'll return to their seats in time to start a chant up, without help from the tannoy.
 
Same tune but with the nana bit replaced by Yaya, and the Hey Jude bit replaced by Toure as chanted at Wembley Park tube stop after the semi final.
