Wanderers Songs

For my sins I often pop into see the opposition and, when I do, I often think we're off the pace - musically speaking!

 

Examples are:

 

Liverpool sing " Maxi -Maxi Rodriguez goes down the wing for me" to the tune of heartbeat and Spurs sing "na na na na na na na na na na Rafael Van Der Vart - Rafael Van Der Vart" to K C and the Sunshine Band's "Baby Give It Up"

 

These are in a different league to "come on you whites" "oh wanky wanky" etc. I remember the launch of "here we are - super whites" back in the 70s which was unbelievably naff...

 

Are we northern monkeys doomed to produce bland boring dittys - or are there a few musically minded folk out there who can dream up a few examples to make us proud to be Wanderers.?

Oh goodie! Undies is going to get himself over excited! :D

Yes

No

What exactly is wrong with " We are the one and only Wanderers?"

Call me miserable,. but I'm more concerned about our inability to defend.

 

Singing a song about Chris Eagles to the Brokeback Mountain theme tune won't stop us conceding from set pieces.

i think we need a couple more windowlickers to join the plantpots on the drums.....then a couple of flag wavers ...and some shitty music when we score ....that'll get us all going...won't it?

a bit of passion on the pitch would also help...

 

How am I supposed to shout abuse at our players if I'm busy singing songs? You've not thought this through!

Facepainting, that's what we need!

we aint got no songs

I remember when i used to sit in the East Lower and tried on a number of occasions to get the slow version of "Oh when the whites go marching in" going, the same one Spurs do. Everyone just looked at me like i was a tit then only joined in when it got faster. The vast majority of Bolton fans are an unimaginative lot.

Sad - but surely not true. Come on fellas!

I know, the unimaginative lot not joining in with a song stolen off another team.

We need better half time entertainment to get the crowd going.

 

Can I suggest balloon benders.

bolton were singing the slow version in the 70s

Thats a shit song anyway, whats wrong with the old songs, "walking down the manny road" "The Wanderers are coming up the hill boys" "It was in the year of 58" "Oh when the whites go marching in" all better than the shit sang these days, why do the kids corner never sing any of the old classics?

Nothing - but we don't have many others - especially creative ones.

 

Can anyone shoehorn the word wanderer into a well know tune - what about using the proclaimers 500 miles classic tune to get us started.... "we're the Wanderers, we're the Wanderers, were the Wanderers, we're the Wanderers - the reebok stadium is better than the bar"

 

Ok it's a start....

 

I'll get mi coat.

They don't know them

The Walkden Whites Happy Al's away trips used to be a real ear opener, football singing at it's very best

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

we're the one and only wanderers we're the one and only wanderers

 

 

 

 

and thats all the reebok era fans can muster up

Oh goodie! Undies is going to get himself over excited! :D

 

:jump:

20 years since, it seemed there was a song for each and every player. Today we haven got one for players who haven't been with us for 10 years.

 

We couldn't even muster up a decent Gary Speed tribute,the fookin apathy is deafening.
