Clermont (Away) - Sunday 10th April 2022

[Noggs]

Definitely need a thread for song lyrics on here!

We have had attempts many times in the past and all to no avail. To have any chance it has to be very simple; 4 lines at most.

We'd need everyone who is active on here to go in something approaching unison and it would need sustainment over several matches but, well, with the right attitude it could be done...

Get it put into the matchday program. Fans will try it and it will catch on eventually

Surely it should just be Tiger Feet by Mud.....works for foot stomping the Crumbie.

Perhaps a bit too high tempo to sing while "tired and emotional" towards the end of a match?

I was there and the 4 line “Take me home Welford Road, it’s a place we belong, Leicester Tigers, right beside me, take me home Welford ” version was ringing around the stadium after the game ..it was mentioned by Nick Mullens on BT and even Clermont fans joined in ! After the game the players were singing with us it was just incredible to hear !
It worked once at a famous victory so no reason it shouldn’t work again! Why reinvent the wheel!
Keep it simple
“It’s a place we belong”

Good that nice and simple but good lyrics. Was sang by Olivia Neutron Bomb, amongst others I believe

[KiwiTig]

It was indeed

[TigerFeetSteve]

Wasn't it a theme also that quite a few players were country music fans?

This works well and would remain timless

Could we maybe all agree a time in the match that we could start trying to sing this on Saturday? Maybe then if there was enough of us doing it the rest of the crowd would join in? I was also very impressed by the group singing at Worcester away earlier in the season from one of the ends: "Borthwick you're the one..." and "Nic Dolly, Dolly, Dolly, Dolly" spring to mind.

[KiwiTig]

Great idea
The group at Worcester were brilliant and it was all Welford Road staff apparently

I'm 80 next week, my wife and I were of the era and were semi John Denver fans, we loved it on Sunday I'm absolutely convinced that it will catch on.
Regarding Pithhead, John the Griff says he didn't know Pithhead was musical, he's obviously never seen him after he's had a bevvie or 2,

Just wanted to add that singing this during and after the Clermont game really did add to what was already a special afternoon on Sunday.

I hope this does become an adopted anthem at home, but have no doubt that the travelling contingent will continue to sing it at away days after Sunday's success, where it perhaps also has more meaning?

Quick question for those also in Clermont who may know, did the idea come about before or after the Clermont brass band briefly played the tune? Either way it was genius and my wife who is a reluctant fan loved it and is defo more a Tigers fan as a result!
