| The younger generation associate Entry of the Gladiators with clown music which is why it doesn't have the same effect these days, but the 'older guard' who remember the 60s/70s (not me but my Mum and uncles etc) remember it as a common RL entrance tune

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

I remember it being played at Wigan loads, and I'm 23.

that is quite possibly the worst excuse for a tune I've ever heard in my life. Its bad enough that someone wrote it but of all the potentially decent entrance tunes in the world the fact that this particular tune was picked takes the biscuit if you ask me. If there's any truth in the argument that music can affect people's behaviour then all the Wire players would be leading with the forearm, trying to decapitate the opposition with swinging arms and choking the life out of them with grapple tackles on the ground... Of course that's just a wild theory which I don't believe for one second along with the theory they played it in the dressing room at the DW a couple of weeks back. Lol

I remember at Central Park we once came out to Graveyard Symphony (the entrance music of The Undertaker) and the theme from Mission Impossible.
I like the Gladiator theme we use now but think we could also go with 'The Battle' which is quite good as an entrance song. (start from around 5 mins) www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgARus5JFQY
