We should have a themed away day for the Batley game on Easter Monday, how about we all go with Misi Taualapap masks, as its the nearest he'll get to an Eagles game for a while!

After mine and dr brummie's chat last night I had a little play around on the computer and, well, let's just say Misi might be making an appearance in Dewsbury on Sunday

Nice one! There's only one real Dr B now!

We discussed this today and weve decided that all Eagles fans attending the game at Batley should wear retro shirts (in order that we fit in with the local area we should turn the clock back about 15/20 years).

The "Wembley" shirt from three(?) seasons ago is about as retro as you'll get from me, any older and the shirts are too small!

Gonna dig deep into my treasure chest of old eagles shirts. Got some corkers in there but the one that stands out has got TROPHY on the chest.


Ps. Is that Depeche Mode song sung at Wendy matches?

It is but that's largely irrelevant.

No it is not irrelevant. No pork at the Eagles. I ain't gonna sing no Blades songs and never have done since my first Eagles match in 1984. Respect, this is the Eagles, not wendy, not the Blades.

Great atmosphere today. EEEEEAAAGGLES will do. When I hear pig noises at EAGLES games I'm gonna BOOOOOOO.

The song is sung by Celtic, Liverpool, Burnley just to name a few, it has been heard at the last couple of Wednesday matches but not exactly wholesale chanting. It's not a Wednesday song, it's a generic chant that we want to try and convert into a bit of an Eagles anthem as no one else uses it in RL (as far as I know).

Booing while we sing it would be completely counter productive and completely pointless as you would be drowned out anyway. Eagleblade off here was singing it as loud as anyone today, further proving my point that it's not a Wednesday song.

EEEEEagles and Eagles! (clap, clap, clap) are all well and good but they're hardly original and are extremely repetitive. Just can't get enough is a great chant and will be continued to be heard throughout the season.

Also less of the pig stuff, I am a moderator you know...

Well, knock me out. Mod you may be. The power you are. Ban me if you like. JEEZ you power mad WENDY. Only posted on here 3 or 4 times. But my love for the EAGLES is Forever, no doubt much like yourself, but unlike you I ain't ever gonna bring my football habits to the beautiful EAGLES.

Fair play though, other than totally ruining a true 80's classic song todays atmosphere was ACE.

I thought the winking smiley would portray my sarcasm, clearly not.

You're right, I will be an Eagle forever, but I'm not bringing my football habits into the Eagles! This song wasn't my own exclusive idea it was you who asked about Wednesday singing it in the first place, I don't see why a particular place in which a generic song is sung should dictate whether or not you choose to sing it at Eagles games. Each to their own though, I just think booing through it would be completely and utterly counter-productive and make you look like a bit of a Wally!

Welcome to the forum

Fair play ESO. We all love the EAGLES. Just the thought of a wendy song being sung in support of the Eagles ain't my idea of supporting the Eagles and fills me with horror. I'm pretty sure you would boo if I started to sing the greasy chip butty after a Menzie hit. Would much prefer it if you lot from the dark side would save it for the dark sides away matches.

What are you dark siders doing for Batley?

Dark side at home or the mighty Eagles at Mount Pleasant. Got my vintage shirt all good and ready to go.

EEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAGGGGGLLLLLEEEEEESSSSS !

You dont have to sing what you dont want to, but booing any songs we sing just strikes of total immaturity. Like ESO says, lots of footy teams sing it, but we believe we are the first RL side to sing it.

Sing greasy chip buttie if you want, youll be the only one though.

Ill be at Batley, retro shirt n all. I havent been to a Wednesday game in ages, ive been to more Scarborough Athletic games this season.

Greasy chip bitty is an absolute Uni*ed anthem though, just can't get enough is just belted out by a few pre-pubescent kids at the back of our kop to be fair

I've decided I'm going to Batley, will be only the second Wednesday home game I've missed in five seasons but we have nothing to play for and if it's another day like today Batley will be a good laugh!!

The greasy pork sandwich song has been tried at eagles a few times over the years and has never taken off due to the fact that it really IS a footy song.
