    Saw them at the marquee in 1981 skids. Superb. Bystander I concur the original clash at Leeds polytechnic in 1977. Magnificent seven would be superb to run out to …. Cmon City.

    I always thought you'd be into that sort of stuff Rod, draped in a stetson and rhinestone cowboy boots.

    Get Zayn Malik to do a version of it with Taylor Swift and release it as a single. All proceeds to buying back the ground.

    Have you seen how tall he is. Rod on a chopper would be finny, either knees in his face or feet trailing a yard behind the bike.

    Time to play the game would be useful for our players based upon how long it takes them to get going!

    "Take me Home" was always a pathetic choice of music to walk out to. I have mentioned this several times over the past few seasons. It is so bloody depressing, how on earth do they expect the players or fans to be upbeat & raring to go when they've heard that as they walk out(!)

    Bring back "just can't get enough" by Depeche Mode. We all have fond memories of this being our walk-on music, fans sing along to it, and it is still used as a chant at away games to this day. I blame Sparks, no surprise to some of you i'm sure. As the saying goes, why fix summat if it ain't broke!

    Walking out and lining up should be banned. Lets ditch this woke nonsense and have the two teams running out side by side, to stirring music, and close enough to kidney punch each other on the way out.

    It's no wonder matches start slow with the mind numbing way teams come out these days.

    Nothing wrong with a bit of good country music, or bluegrass.
    I saw The Clash three times - once at Hammy Odeon or the Rainbow (can’t remember which) and twice at the Lyceum. The second time they were supported by Joe Ely. The Clash knew a good country band when they saw one.
