Do we need an anthem?

Popped into the bogs before the game to hear the Soulwax for Despacio Remix of You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) by Sylvester coming through the speakers.

After my initial double take , I decided it was a good omen and lo and behold, Chelsea got tonked and I did indeed feel mighty real.
 
You wanna sing?

Z cars is the tune from a folk song relevant to both the city of Liverpool and the fact Bramley Moore is a dock:

Johnny Todd, he took a notion
For to cross the ocean wide
And he's left his own true love behind him
Walking by the Liverpool tide

For a week, she wept with sorrow
Tore her hair and wrung her hands
Till she met another handsome sailor
Walking by the Liverpool sands

Fair young maid are you a weeping
For your Johnny gone to sea
If you'll wed with me tomorrow
I will kind and constant be

I will buy you sheets and blankets
I'll buy you a wedding ring
You shall have a silver cradle
For to rock the baby in

Johnny Todd came home from sailing
Sailing on the ocean wide
And he's found his fair and false one
Was another sailor's bride

All young men who go a sailing
For to fight the foreign foe
Do not leave your own true love like johnny
Marry her before you go

I was going to go with ‘It’s Raining Men’ by The Weather Girls just because, but this works as well, mate.
