| Right I have just spoken to someone at the club who informed me that the idea of reviving the song has already been discussed particularly in relation to the heritage day at crusaders game and hinted that that song and some other classics may make a return that day. He gave me the impression that they had already got a copy. So watch this space it may be making a come back! In relation to getting it to Wembley the club said that they do not have control over that it is the RFL/WEMBLEY that commission that so not sure where to go with that if anywhere?
Thanks everyone for the awesome contribution and ideas lets keep it going and get it echoing round Wembley. Hunter 81 I was thinking the copy we do have could we get that to the coaches get it played on the way down? And is there anyway to share that MP3 on here on digitally-I am not very tech savvy!!!

| Excellent the lyrics are on here if you wanna take down the full song by all means do so but I think realistically we will only get the chorus really going which in itself will be IMMENSE

| Quote: Champions "Not 100% on all the words, I've had to guess a few, especially some of the players mentioned, but roughly speakingChorus[/i
Wigan Rugby Club, best in all the land,
Marching on to Wembley, and singing with the band,
At home we are unbeatable, away we are supreme,
So give us a cheer, the lads are here, the Wigan rugby team.
Our players are invinsible, their talent is the best,
With Hanley, Edwards, Wayne and Gill, Goodway, Case and West,
Dermott, Bell and Lydon, to mention but a few,
The greatest rugby football team, oh Wigan we love you!
[iChorus[/i
Our squad it is a mixture, of international skill,
From all 4 corners of the world, a team that's bound to thrill,
There's Aussis, Kiwis, Africans, Welsh and Scottish too,
When they're out there on the park, They're Wigan through and through.
[iChrous[/i
Although the game is tough and hard, the crowd is good as gold,
Happy family atmosphere, safe for young and old,
So come on down and join the crowd, within our famous walls,
We're more well known then Wigan Pier, or Uncle Joe's mintballs.
[iChorus[/i'"
WOW!!!!
Not heard the full version for year and years, used to have it on a home made cassette until it got worn out
EDIT - This thread is immense!!
Loving the new version - Well done Cadoo
I'm always surprised how much of the original song people actually remember, we got nearly 3 verses coming back from Leeds this year (well 2 and the chorus!!)

Fantastic
The genius that is Shaun Edwards.
just watch 1 minute into the video where he is when Gill gets the ball, and then where he is when he gets the ball to provide the final try scoring pass to Lydon.
Just for our younger posters that was in the Lancashire Cup Final V Oldham at Knowsley Road in the 1986 - 87 season.

| Quote: cadoo "There is a place in Wigan, right next to Robin Park
Where legends such as Radlinski Faz and Dallas made their mark
Our boardroom's back with trophies, this year we'll win some more
The other teams know what we mean when they hear the Brigantes roar
Chorus
Wigan Rugby Club, best in all the land,
Marching on to Wembley, and singing with the band,
At home we are unbeatable, away we are supreme,
So give us a cheer, the lads are here, the Wigan rugby team.
They'll take us to Old Trafford, racking up the wins
With Deacon, Richards, George and Finch, Joel and Sam Tomkins
With Madge and Wane beside them, nothing can go wrong,
We're going back to Wembley, back home where we belong.
Our history is untouchable, we always won the lot
From Eighty eight to ninety five, it will never be forgot
We hammered our arch rivals, twenty seven nil
And sent the scousers crying, back over Billinge Hill
That day we went to Brisbane, brings a tear to my eye
As we took it to the Aussies, those times will never die
Wigan is my present, past and future too
Like everyone around me, I'm Wigan through and through'"
Like it a lot
'There was a place in Wigan, known as Central Park,
Where legends such as Ashton, Gee and Boston made their mark,
Although the ground, is no more, it's legacy never died,
For every Wigan heart remains, down at the riverside.'
