has anyone got a decent idea about how to get new songs going?
and before anyone has a go or anything- i think this is something that seriously needs to be looked at because, as discussed on other threads and every week, the atmosphere is awful most of the time. This is due to a few factors - which have also been discussed in other threads i.e the need for a singing end etc- but is it fair to say that our songs are old and tired and fans are just bored of singing them?
We seem to have 2 tunes for new songs for players- either 'we've got Robinho/Ireland is Superman' or 'one Zabaleta/one Shay Given'.
fair enough, it's better than not making an effort at all but the same 2 tunes churned out time and time again? it's just boring and uninspiring.
how do other clubs manage to get new songs going that don't just consist of the same tunes and 2 or 3 words?
i'm not intending to be negative here- on the contrary i'm looking for positive responses to how the glut of great songs that are posted on here can see the light of day. Over recent months with new signings there's been loads of great songs suggested- but none ever get going.
I, along with many others, have e mailed the club with regard to moving away fans to create one end- but that doesn;t look like it will happen overnight- so in the meantime would some fresh, new songs inspire a better atmosphere?
Does anyone with a bit of clout and a loud voice have any ideas of how to get new songs going? Handing them out on printed sheets? Organising a meeting for a load of willing participants to discuss new songs then the loudest and boldest can get them going?
