It was a Leigh Anthem then and still should be ,Liverpool dont change their music , neither should we .
Its the same with all these "Ideas " people are coming up with , nowt wrong with them but "Ideas " that make money for the Club are BEST ,we need more fundraisers, guys like Don Boyle ,the Touchdown Club , and LISA ,to put cash into the Club ,not sitting around thinking who can come up with another idea .
Jonny the Leythers polls are amusing ,and good entertainment ,but lets stay focused on what is needed ?Cash being raised for our Great Club .
Getting back to the Music , im a Traditionalist maybe Owd Fashioned ,but again it has to be "Entrance of the Gladiators " for me .'"
Amusing?
I'm offended!

| Don't be Jonny.
Charlie is stuck in the past. He still wears the same coat he did in 1961.

| He must be meaning me.
I got home from work yesterday and unusually got given the post to open, much to the amusement of the rest of the glows.
Cheaper insurance for the over 50’s from Help the aged! Why does it have to be all over the frigging envelop?
It wasn’t even the Cheap!

| I think it depends on what you are looking for and what era you are from, its all subjective.
If you play march of the Galdiators to my son he will fully expect to see Clowns appearing, and to be honest so will many under 40 years of age as that what's the song means to them.
Not knocking our tradition but sometimes a theme tune moves on (I’d have it in the match day build up playlist though acknowledging our past and the fact many fans still want to here it).
The idea behind Kasabian (for example) isn’t because its a fashion ‘in vogue’ tune, its a high pumped up high tempo record, lets not forget the tune the players run out to will last for no more than 1 minute – it isn’t about playing a full record, equally (for me in anyhow) it isn’t about getting a chant going.
Its about something that stirs the crowd, makes them realise the teams appearance is imminent and makes them realise that all the waiting is over, the build up , the suspense , the excitement , its happening shortly.
The players run out and it should be one hell of a roar for them to enter the field to, in essence its something that whips the crowd up.
If you look at Sunderland (as a example) its one of the best build ups to a sporting team entering a arena in the world, and yet none of the music is for chanting to.
Its designed to make the crowd proud and get them pumped up , if you look at the backing they get from walk out to referee blowing his whistle it really does get them pumped up and carries them for at least 5 mins (if not longer) , even as a opposition fan there it made me sit back and think wow that was impressive I’d like to be a part of something like that.
Probably one of the reasons Jonny and others like minded are looking at getting our match day experience improved.

I think the ole bit is a must at some points in the game,it might get the west stand going a bit more. the rest of the song i'm not sure about although i'm sure the kids would love.

Listen to the lyrics John;
"Bouncing souls no one can beat us
we drink beer and wear adidas
anywhere we get the itch
we're off to find a proper pitch
Lace your sambas get on out
off we go to kick it about
Win or lose we're having fun
we won't quit until we're done
We got heart when we play
Take you on any day!"
Now tell me that isn't Leigh RL in a nutshell!

This is what we should have to walk out to.

Again it's not necessarily about having a song to sing along to, but something of a theme song to call our own and a signal that the teams are about to come out - the fact that the song and lyrics tie in very well with us is just a bonus!
