    DId we play this sometimes in the past? Sounds great loud. probably even on our system. (For the young ones, it's a song about going into battle.)

    Not as entrance music but a favourite of mine is one from the sixties Rainbow Valley by Love Affair. They used to play it pre match about a year ago but not heard it since.

    Im on the fence, its a foot tapper but personally would prefer something heavier, get the lads gee'd up. We should bring back 'My gang'....

    I think Arsenal have used a few WWE songs. Usually for second half return to pitch though.

    If Sparks asked me our song for next year then Im picking Enter Sandman by Metallica.

    Hey Jude
    Glad all over

    My Fav….High Ho Silver lining



    Great beat to clap to and an easy song that comes to a peak


    You're everywhere and nowhere baby
    That's where you're at
    Going down a bumpy hillside
    In your City hat
    Driving across the country
    And getting fat
    Saying everything is groovy
    When your tires are flat
    And it's high ho Bradford City …..

    Just about get the teams to the half way line up?

    Banger. That and Whiskey in the Jar would get me going.

    also think Thunderstruck by AC/DC would be great when the crowd’s bellowing ‘THUNDER’ na na na na na na na na

    I like my rock and metal but I must admit, I did buy BBCC’s album to support Bradford lads and actually grew to like it ha ha

    I was just about to post Thunderstruck myself! Maybe even play the intro on a bit of a loop so it lasts even longer

    Absolutely Not!

    Jeff beck on Hi Ho Silver Lining, “I just hated singing it,“ Beck admitted in reflection when talking about his ironically begrudged solo hit. “It’s just a bit embarrassing, when you’re trying to play your moody guitar. Mickie told, he said: ‘You’ll be hearing this for a long time.’ We did it as a joke, I think it was for the Prince’s Trust, and it really got the crowd going. But I’m never going to sing it again.” https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/the-song-that-jeff-beck-regretted-most/

    I have 14 Jeff Beck albums, plus saw him live, so I know a thing or two about his music.

    Think at moment they’d swap it for ours. Just got record run of home games without a win.

    I’d be all over the club cranking this up before a match. Right tune. So is Wunderbar (single version).

    I first heard it when South Carolina “gamecocks” were playing Tennessee. Impressive.

    Answered by this Bradford Band track.



    In fact if Terrorvision re wrote the lyrics on a City line and recorded it, guess it could be a hit and great intro music. I recall some things the lead singer Tony Smith said about watching City, back in the day on the ‘Never Mind the Buzzcocks’, and him talking about City games.
