Me and the boys are fed up of being the only ones in our block to know them
(the English lyrics that is)

Men Of Harlech are easy lyrics to learn whether it's in English or Welsh, Half of our fans are just too lazy to learn them they enjoy eating their prawn sandwiches instead...

Good idea if true. Sound great with everyone signing the words loud and proud instead of humming and arring tune

I learned them when I was 12, so there's no excuse for people not knowing them. It would sound awesome if we sang it before kick off. We just rely on the ear busting tannoy speakers

Haha.

Would be great for the whole ground to sing it loud and slowly during a game!

They're easy to learn but as someone has said, people are too lazy to learn them

Hopefully this pushes it (unless the steward who told me was lying)

It would sound beautiful. Hymns and Arias IS a rugby chant but it gets a lot of love in from neutrals. If we sang Men of Harlech with the lyrics it would be incredible

I've known the words since I was about 12 and I'm one or few who ain't them by where I stand, our fans moan about having a club anthem but MoH IS our anthem, would definitely sound brilliant if everyone sung it, a main song at the start would really get the crowd and players pumped for the whole game I think

Am I right in saying they did this at Ninian Park at some point in the past?
