Bring the Noise

I don’t know, I wasn’t born until the early 80s.

To be fair to those four Scousers: one was an Everton fan, one was an Arsenal fan and the other two didn’t like football.

And they all got out of Liverpool as soon as they made the money to do it. I don't really think of “Hey Jude“ as a scouse song. It's addressed to John's son, Julian. That's all.

That's what I console myself with too, but everytime I'm unfortunate enough to be over there at the inlaws, they ask why we sing a Liverpool associated song.
Not like we haven't got enough Manchester songs to go at.
 


Watch the first 6mins 40secs of this^:
No earsplitting adverts on a big screen, no daft microphone bloke coming out with utter nonsense like ‘Our Number 25, the Human Calculator, Manuuuuuuuu Akaaaaanjiiiiiiii’, ‘Our Number 19, Al Araña, Juuuuuuulien Ááálvareeeeeeez’, no Danzone Fanny or Natasha Spike, no pitch-side interviews with some random boxer from Azerbaijan promoting his fight at the Co-Op, no crap pop-punk version of a dreary song called ‘Blue Moon’, no light show with wolves howling at the Moon like we had last season, just Blues making a racket!

Not sure using an example from over 30 years ago, in a different stadium in different times is really helping your point mate.
 
We’ve been singing it since the 60s. We were the first set of fans to make it a football chant, coïnciding when we were champions of England in 1968, came out the same month we beat West Brom 6-1 at Maine Road in the Charity Shield.

Much like we were the first to make ‘City til I Die’, ‘Voulez Vouz/Bernardooooo’, ‘here’s to you Vincent Kompany’, Billy Ray Cyrus/‘don’t sell Joe Hart, super Joey Hart’, Amarillo/‘is this the way to Istanbul?’, Fleetwood Mac/‘I’ll follow you everywhere’… into footy chants.
I think Amarillo was a Newcastle chant first
 
so bottom tier i can walk to 110? or 010 nowdays, that works for me… theyre considered the singing stand anyway so anywhere close to them is mint.
Walk round to block 110, the tunnel club is blocked off and you can't get round to that side of the south stand. I've tried it myself
 
Got it on good authority before the tannoy is cut, purely for piss boiling purposes the last song will be " here come the men in black", Will Smith, in tribute to the mib's.
