Kay 3,709 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 I was reminiscing with my Dad the other day about going to the Wolves ground as an 8 year old, we laughed about his almost ritualistic routine on a Saturday morning before we set off ..... All normal life stopped until it was time to get in the car & go , then I mentioned the crowd chanting & the club anthems .. whenever I hear liberator I always think of the Wolves , not really an anthem as there's no words .. I loved the atmosphere & the sea of black & gold scarves , we are talking the mid 70's here It brought back some very lovely memories of me & my Dad & how exciting Saturday mornings where getting ready to go & my glimpse of the ground & how big it seemed to a wee 8 year old ... all the singing & the roar of the crowd when a goal went in Thought it might make a different topic to break silly season up a bit So whats your teams anthem , I know a few already such as the West Ham & Liverpool anthem's 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AKA-BRINDLE 879 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Our 'anthem' is "on the ball City!"...we sing it when we go up...and we sing it on the way down...we also sing a lot of songs about how much we hate Ipswich 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember how excited my dad was when Emlyn Hughes signed for Wolves , it was a big deal to get a fairly big player & personality play at the Molineux Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jacknife 2,005 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Blaydon races Atmosphere at St James is unfortunately not like it used to be standing on the galowgate or leazes end All seater stadiums take the excitement away Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,534 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Wolves was always one of my favorite grounds to visit i still have nightmares about that subway going across the big main road whatever it was called .....smashing little ground though they could make some noise as well,couldnt really understand what they was saying but i liked that area it was a good competetive footballing area. As for anthems.......well theres only 2 clubs with old traditional anthems that any fan of any club knows ........i mean i hardly think " we,re by far the greatest team the world has ever seen " counts as a club anthem does it !!

gnasher16 30,534 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 I used to like that Leeds one years ago......" marching through ooops and darns " or whatever it was they was saying Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jessdale 416 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 "marching on together", the anthem for every Leeds United fan, even got into the top 40 charts in the 70's. Is there a better football anthem???, very much doubt it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
