Do Salford Supporters Have The Most Songs ?
A question my 9 year old son asked the other day.

Yes I surpose we have a lot, better we have variety than just one

I would like a signature tune like "old faithfull" or "red red robin" I surpose "I see the salford reds arising" is the nearest we have but personally in barton i would like "dirty old town" to take off with the lyric

"Dream the dream by the old canal" and "smell the spring on the salford wind"

I would also like them to play the "craft" version over the tannoy much more rocky than the original verson.

id like dirty old town to be sang more
maybe a campaign to make it our old faithful

No point having our own song, will just be ruined by people singing far too quickly then clapping

Followed by me getting irate and screaming, "FFS, slow down!" No, for the good health of the musically capable, perhaps we best avoid an unofficial anthem.

I disagree new shed new rules

Id even change the words slightly

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I Kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
Hear us sing, when the salford win
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Drop the original 2nd verse sing it in 40 seconds jobbie is a good one

Won't happen tho we will sing it too slow cos everyone else sings it too quick and clap all the way through as a protest

Just as long as you don`t lumber us with that horrible cover I `ll be a happy bunny, for what its worth 619 Red favourite song is I Am Salfordian .

And there's two reasons why i stopped standing in The Shed.

The lack of timing or timing nazis?

There have been some real belters over the years. Who can forget '**** off Myler, **** off Myler', although I always enjoyed its predecessor, '**** off Coley, **** off Coley.' And for the (slightly) older folks, who can forget the classic '**** off Homesick, **** off Homesick'?

I think the National Anthem should be "Take me home Willows Road" ala Huddersfield with their Fartown !

The timing Nazis.

Being told what to sing, when to sing it, at what tempo and whether i can clap or not did my head in!!

I'm a spectator at a rugby match!! I'm not attending choir practice!!
