    Posted it in another thread, but it was about Leeds so now doubt it won't get the traffic.

    Always thought we could do something with Don't Stop Believin'

    Just some small town team
    Livin' in a League One Dream
    They took the midnight train going anywhere
    Just just some Reds as per
    Born and raised in South Yorkshire
    They took the midnight train going anywhere

    Colliers waitin'
    Up and down the Ponty End
    Their scarfs wavin' in the night
    Floodlights, people
    Livin' just to find promotion
    Singin', with all of their might

    Don't stop believin'
    Hold on to that feelin'
    Highlights, Barnsley and 3 points....

    I don’t understand why ‘my love, my town’ by Civic Green. doesn't get played before kickoff. A song about Barnsley, written for Barnsley, by a band from Barnsley… seems a no brainer. Plus it’s a right tune.

    I don’t like that every club uses hey Jude. I want something original. Plus the novelty has worn off and no one joins in now anyway.

    Margarita Time by Status Quo because every time you visit Oakwell you feel like the players are on holiday.

    Every time you see a win you'll wonder if it was a dream or a fantasy.

    If we lose you'll take your chance next time.

    Been trying to flog this for a while, but seemingly no interest. Can't understand why - great song, memorable 4-line chorus that easily repeats and most importantly, they're 100% tarn.

    If a certain German Head coach does arrive, could we do something with AC/DC Thunderstruck. Instead of chanting Thunder chant Stendel.
    I'm no song writer etc but could a member on here play around with some of the lyrics and come up a song for us.

    I like songs that make you want to get up and do something.

    Thunderstruck - AC/DC

    Of course, replace the thunder with Barnsley.

    Can work with that… although think we could alternate Stendel and Barnsley where appropriate

    I was caught,
    In a terrible league one trap
    I looked round
    But all the other teams were crap
    My mind Raced
    And I thought, who can steer this ship
    And I knew,
    He’d get us back to the championship

    Excitement he brings
    Beating in my heart
    The Ponty End Sings
    Opposition fall apart

    You’ve been
    Thunderstruck


    Or something similar
