Wow, I seem to be the only one that quite likes it then, and I'm a metalhead!

I guess part of it was superstition based, we're unbeaten whilst belting this song out but I dunno, just kinda liked it. I wouldn't have it for all times though, maybe change it each season...

How about 'Master Of Puppets' by Metallica? That'd get everyone revved up!

Surely it would have to be Leper Messiah . . . . . ?

Unless of course Metallica entitle a track 6_8_14 or Walsho !

Although also from that album you could have ' Welcome Home ( Sanitarium ) ' from about 3 minutes in !

. . . . although I advise against ' Disposable Heroes ' . . . . . .

Thinking about it Enter Sandman might work! It'd have to be a Tallica track that people might have a chance of knowing!

I do like that Arsenal have tried to introduce a theme song though, it is needed...I'd go with Good Old Arsenal too...

Edelman can keep his filthy mits off!

I can just imagine the general bemusement as the teams stroll out with Damage Inc in full glory.

I like it! If people sang it maybe you would all like it. Lol, I'm not willing to look like a plonker by myself though.

I genuinely think they have done it for the right reason and the song is a lot better than some they could have played. We have also performed very well when it has been played and the supersticious side of me would not want it dropped just yet for fear of a change in results!

It is as dreary as dreary gets . . . if everyone sang it then we would be no better than singing the Kops anthem 'You'll Never Walk Alone ' . . . . . traditional now though it is and Gerry and The Pacemakers came from Merseyside, it is still a dirge.

So the only reason to keep ' Wonder Of You ', aside from superstition, is if Elvis Presley was born in N5 or N4 . . . . . oh go on then, N7 or N1, I'm feeling generous.

I like that too !

While we are on a MET-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-L tip how about something upbeat from Kyuss ? The opening track from Wretch maybe ?
[Begining Of What 's About To Happen] HWY 74 or ' I'm Not ' ?

From Blues fFor The Red Sun I would choose, ' 50 Million Year Trip ( Downside Up ) ', or ' Freedom Run ' . . . . . apologies to non-metal heads !

Anyway, it's not as if kyuss lyrics are that complex to pick up ! Just a few sweary bits . . . ' Son Of A Bitch ' . . . now there's a song to sing at the Grove,
instead of ' Who's The Bastard In The Black ' . . . I digress.

Go With the Flow by QOTSA would be good.

"I want something good to die for, to make it beautiful to live" would be a great line to sum up the way we play and the club itself.

Maybe it should be the ' Imperial March ' from Star Wars . . . . . surely that would put the wind up those pesky rebel teams from a footballing galaxy far, far away.

We could have our manager lead the team out as Darth Wenger !
