You'll Never Walk Alone on the Bob Bank

Thu Nov 25, 2010 6:14 pm

As a kid during the late 70s and early 80s, I used to go in the lower family enclosure with my Dad. Believe it or not, the Bob Bank used to regularly sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" then. From the family enclosure, it was really impressive to see a sea of blue white and yellow scarves and flags on the Bob Bank. There were always loads of bog rolls being thrown on the Bob Bank too. Whatever happened to throwing bog rolls at football matches?

Last time I heard it a cardiff city home game sung by fans was around 1991 when Aldershot went bankrupt. It was very emotional for their fans in block a :D and en mass at the end the bob bank sung you'll never walk alone :ayatollah:

You would hear this being sang at almost every ground in the country back in the seventies.

But we are Welsh ! wouldnt it be better for us to sing something that really means something to Us? I have already posted a link about what I thing and many other on here thought would be great to sing. And I put some words to it , all we have to do is sing the Chorus to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WooUv0QttKs

WERE THE FAMOUS CARDIFF CITY WE WEAR A SHIRT OF BLUE

WERE FROM THE LAND OF CYMRU, WERE WELSHMEN STRONG AND TRUE

YES!! WERE CARDIFF CITY , WITH A BLUEBIRD ON OUR CHEST

OUR HOMELAND IS IN WALES , WERE BETTER THAN THE REST
CHORUS
Ry'n ni yma o hyd,
Ry'n ni yma o hyd,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.
Ry'n ni yma o hyd,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.

They behave a little differently when the worldwide media are watching them don't they? Maybe we should invite CNN to some Cardiff away games.
