It's a cool song and he's got a lovely voice so I re-tweeted purely in the hope that I will hear it playing while I'm in the loo at half-time! 8)

Maybe I'm imagining it but I'm sure I've heard a rockier version of this, complete with video, before?

Great Lyrics.

Can't we play some rock to get the crowd going rather than this drab sh☆t?

Apart from the fact it ignores all our success after 1995, makes no mention of anything relevant to our current Play Off campaign and McGhee actually left for Leicester it's ok.

Make some effort and make it relevant ffs.

Odds of this getting played at Wembley?

(Don't have a twitter account so can't give it a retweet sorry. Not particularly a fan wasn't really my cup of tea but good luck)

"Left us for wolves"
idiom. fig: "to put someone in a situation where there is nothing to protect them"

Also, the first game we had to play after he left us for Wolves was against Wolves.
Are you even a Reading fan? :)

Make some effort and make it relevant ffs.

I wrote it 4 years ago and I specifically wanted to write it about the Elm Park era. I haven't written it for this year's campaign.
I'm not even going to Wembley and didn't go to either semi-finals. I haven't been to a Reading game since Clarke got sacked. It seems the song has caught on with a lot of fans and I haven't really made much effort at all tbh. It was recorded on my phone in one take and that's the only version. There is probably zero chance of it being played at Wembley as it's 1) a shit recording and 2) derogatory to another team threatening extreme violence. :)

I would like to thank everyone that's got behind it though. Especially Seahawks and Thames. Nice one guys.

Not really a inspiring , uplifting pre match choon is it?

Maybe someone can do a RFC tune mashup. This one , the one they play on matchday, Sassi's effort , and whatever else is out there.

So that's how I'd seen a video of it. I only imagined the rockier version then!
