    And should be ours now, Liverpool apart no other club has the right to call this tune its own, Every season we have supporters saying why can we not have our own song like others when we have one of the very best in YNWA and should use it every game. Am sure that Liverpool supporters would be happy to share.

    I've still got the single stored away in the loft.
    Quite a list of celebs sang on it.

    I think your argument has nothing to do with
    the reason this match is being played.

    I believe Glasgow Celtic also claim it as their song.

    Absolutely, and I am sorry for your loss.

    In view of the reason for this match, I think it is sad that anyone can find a reason to grumble.

    This is my best friend when I was a teenager

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/news/8655336/Alistair-Banks-the-incurable-optimist.html

    @BingleyBantam@BingleyBantam will remember Alistair because we all went to school together. Sadly Alistair died several years ago.

    I have a huge respect for Stephen Darby for the way he conducted himself as a Bradford City player and also for what he is facing now.

    I know someone who intends wearing a Manchester United shirt, as although they are a City ST holder they originally supported Manchester United, were born in Manchester and went to Uni in Leeds (and live there now). Wonder how that will go down?

    It wasn’t his to give! Rogers & Hammerstein from Carousel a musical from 1945 turned into a film in 1956. Marsden ‘borrowed it’.

    Perhaps he could wear a City/ Man Utd half and half shirt to really make a statement

    Tell you what, I cannot attend the game and I’m gutted to be missing such an event.

    Instead, I wanted to donate the cost of my ticket direct to his charity but was advised the only way of doing this was to use the Bolton JustGiving page. Someone has set this up to raise funds because of the charity work they are completing.

    Should I take my bat and ball home and refuse to part with my cash unless it’s to a JustGiving page directly related to this game or Darby himself? If I can only transfer my money to the Bolton page, should I refuse?

    That is some list.
    I didn’t know that. How can he borrow a song? Did he have to pay for it?

    He will have had to pay for the rights to use it just like every other performer that uses a song that someone else has written

    Not for me, leave the song with Celtic and Liverpool. Feels like we are borrowing it when its ever sung at VP.
