Do we need an anthem?

[Rita_Poon]

professor dockhead*? surely.

 

[Vaughan]

we already play forever everton before kick off in a similar manner to the two anthems mentioned

i hoped there she goes would take off a bit more after the southampton and brighton games but it barely gets a single along now. remember being dumbfounded at the villa home game when i ripped it out and absolutely no one else joined in

maybe for united and liverpool we’ll get more bounce for that

Shame no one though to print the lyrics out on the backs of the yellow 'area warning abusive language' cards they've mithered some people with.

Gotta seize the initiative.

Surely the question is….can we please play a match to stop these mind-numbing threads?

Dance, dance wherever you may be...

I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts
There they are, all standing in a row
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head
Give 'em a twist, a flick of the wrist"
That's what the showman said.

Gerry Marsden tho

I read a biography of Paul McCartney in which he decided not to buy an ostentatious house in the 60s on the basis that it was the type of house Gerry Marsden would buy. McCartney buggered off to a rambling falling down gaff on the beautiful Mull of Kintyre instead. Any anthem we have should be more McCartney than Marsden.

We could tick all the boxes, play the Ukrainian national anthem while drag queens abseil down from the roof on to a pride flag coloured pitch and they’d still ignore us. The bias isn’t going away, we shouldn’t pander to the media scum

Powerfully erotic stuff! The Everton das will love it.

The old WW1 song sung in the trenches :



Well that's cheered everybody up.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Perhaps we could have Maxine Nightingale’s ‘right back where we started from’

And the entire crowd could shout ‘GET RIGHT BACK’ as loud as possible every time the chorus came round. Maybe the board would think ‘you know what maybe 2 permanent right back signings in 20 years is a bit on the low side’

Been thinking of this for ages now. Dare I say it Liverpool before every game get every tv company to keep quiet whilst they sing you’ll never walk alone, even Arsenal now have North London forever.

As much as I love z cars as it’s our tradition it does do my head in that we don’t really have an intimating style anthem that gets everyone on their feet singing before a game. I love spirit of the blues but we only tend to belt that our if we are winning.

Any ideas? Oh and there’s she goes just doesnt cut it for me, just a song, nothing to do with Everton.

I would rather serve my balloons for tea and have the mother in law slice them into 8 portions than have a club hymn. Thanks.

So that’s a no then

There she goes needs to get in the bin now. Its a decent song but nowhere near a footy anthem. It served its purpose at the last Goodison game, it should've been left there.

I can't stand the siren because it instantly reminds me of Bellew.
