A FORMERLY ghostly tune will be coming to life throughout 2011, when the revitalisation of the long neglected second verse of the Club song continues.

Article from last year.

What happened?

Couldn't find the group to re-sing the song?

 

[Bluelegs]

Maybe its in reference to David Bridie's cover

The players probably have enough trouble remembering how the first verse goes.

[CM Sean]

Oh, the team played fine in the year Thirty-Nine,
We're the Demons that no one can lick
And you'll find us there at the final bell
With the spirit of Twenty-Six

something like that... I think. lol!

 

[Supermercado]

Was this at the same time they were going to hoist a flag after every win?

There's tradition, and there's just being silly.

Least we were able to hold onto the trumpeter.

Thank god, I don't know what I'd do if he were torn apart by a pack of wild dogs.

Norwood Redleg's second verse:

Oh the team played fine in the year 29
The Redlegs that no-one could lick, lick, lick
From the crowds first yell to the final bell
The spirit of old forty six, six, six.
Every heart beats true for the Red and the Blue
As we sing this song to you
What do we sing?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
Keep your eye on the Red and the Blue.

 

[Spirit of 39]

My username (Spririt of 39) actually came from the second verse.
