joeheadland Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Good afternoon everyone, I hope this is okay to post here – if not, moderators please move or delete as appropriate. I’m part of a team at the University of Sheffield, led by Dr Chris Stride. We've published a number of academic papers and magazine articles relating to football history, on subjects such as statues and replica shirts (see, for example sportingstatues.com, and https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17460263.2019.1578255). Our current project is investigating the music that football teams have run or walked out of the tunnel to over the years. We are looking for the music that Bolton Wanderers have run out to, for as many seasons in the past as you can recall. We are simply interested in the title of the song, the artist who recorded it, and for which seasons Bolton ran out to this. Any help you can give us to piece together the different songs that your club has run out to would be hugely appreciated. If you have any personal anecdotes around the reasons for the songs being used, or the changes between them, that would also be fantastic. I should also add that we are not interested in goal music, or a song that is played at the final whistle, but just the song that is on the tannoy system as the players enter the field. If you think someone else may be able to help, or you have any questions, please let us know! We would be very happy to discuss the project. Thanks for your time guys, Joe Headland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwfc2003 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Preferred it in the seventies, when they just ran out to the roar of the crowd, particulary when we were up near the top of the table to the terrace chant of "Bring on the Champions" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghana White Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Off topic slightly but does anyone else remember the PA bloke playing a song at halftime one match that two little kids had made up and recorded in the bedroom about BWFC it was as good as you'd expect. It was at Burnden I'd say about 94.. it was that surreal I keep wondering if I made it up in my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted February 10, 2020 Moderators Share Posted February 10, 2020 Around 96/97 seem to recall Children by Robert Miles was played almost every game but can't remember if we ran out to it or it was just played before the game or at half time That carnival de Paris championes one as well, played a lot anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
