Newcastle and Gateshead

I promised myself only 1 football related thread I would start today…..

Right….. David badiel says the song should now be retired after the win yesterday

So… should it? If so replace it with? Is it now to be sweet Caroline from here onwards?

No, he’s just a grump. It should be used whenever a major football championship is won. It’s not like it’ll get over played.

I love the song. I play it on repeat during international tournaments but if one of the men who wrote it wants to retire it then I guess we should.

World in motion is better anyway.

I remember in the 80s and 90s when the team sang a song and released it.

John Barnes wasn't a good singer

They should bring this back x

With the money that club makes I highly doubt it

Rather than retiring it - why doesn’t he hand the rights over to the Lionesses/womens football and let them use the money?

I don’t think Sweet Caroline should replace Football Coming Home I think we should stick with Football Coming Home.Also Sweet Caroline has been the darts player Darly Gurney walk on music for the last 5 years or so perhaps it’s best to share it between them

Stolen from NUFC. Mitro’s on fire. The problem was he never scored so it was only heard on live TV once

Retire it, please !

Tho tbh I always saw it more about the euros being in England than bringing the trophy home. So it long out stayed it's welcome.

Together, stronger.

Now that's a football tune.

Nooooooo I love how pessimistically British it is with the overtones of optimism. It's how every fan feels going into a tournament regardless of how recently something has been won.

Also, fucking William Hill with their fucking gambling ads ruined Sweet Caroline for me

He changed the lyrics for one performance so it was all about the Lionesses, maybe that version should continue from now on?

One that should retire is that really bad England Supporters Band that insist on playing at every single England game playing the same handful of song. 22 years is enough! Please retire!

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

Telling football fans what they can and can't sing.

That's always gone well in the past....

Fat Les and Vindaloo was the best. That's what I was singing yesterday about 18:50 at least.

Considering the Women's team won I think this could work

Can't believe the song is nearly 30 years old itself!
