I was doing a bit of mooching around YouTube and found something very interesting. I've seen a few on here wanting the fans to have an anthem before the players come out. Much like Leeds and Hull do. Well as it turns out Wire have had one all along, but may have been lost over time. And here it is www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7EHJpRoFIY (mods I'm not sure about YouTube links, if it's not allowed then I apologise.) Has anyone heard that song before? I think it's amazing! I would love to see the whole home support singing that before a game.

Never heard of it before. Sounds quite old has it been used by the fans before? It could work with it being from our history rather than trying to create one and force it, shame it isn't well known!

Gosh shows how old I am, remember this well 1973 I think, for a short time we used to run out to it. Like the pictures to go with it Chissy class, Tommy Matin with a cigar. Sorry the game was more fun then, with far more characters in the game. That's just my opinion know it will upset some people

There was one made in 1974 from what I can remember, this must be it.

Don't see why that would upset people. The game was better then :/ I think it would be great for the fans to sing this before a game. Better than having cruddy pop music blasted down our ears.

it was recorded by the players,just before the 1973/74 cup final,we did run out to it a couple of times after. The last time being the last home game before the 2009 cup final.that utube clip transported me back to my miss spent twenties what a decade that was ,for me and the team.

Without the benefit of YouTube here at work, and having just read the posts about the year, can someone confirm if this is "Primrose and Blue" ....."for me and for you"?

Yes it is, could take off that

Primrose and Blue, for me and for you.
They're the colours we all love to see,
Reason to fear we are one the best,
winning our matches by beating the rest.

Primrose and Blue, we'll always be true,
when you watch us pulling through
So lets have a little cheer, you know we was here.
It's the boys in the Primrose and Blue.

Running the field, as the new Wilderspool
Doing our best to keep cool la la la,
Cheering us on when we're making a score,
How we love hearing you roar GO WIRE

Could and should catch on this. Beats bloody cheesy pop songs anyday

Got a copy of that very 7" vinyl at home

Well we have the lyrics, all we need now is the club to play it before each game.

If the club had their head screwed on they could even invite fans to come a record a new version with the current players. That version could then be played before kick off.

If they went a step further they wouldn't play any music what so ever and let the fans build their atmosphere then play this song just as the players walk out. The players may get more pumped up for the game as they were involved with the fans in recording it.

Surely Simon Moranovich has contact for mass song recordings.

So have I!!

Are you for real?

Christmas number 1??

All I'm saying it's an idea. I personally wouldn't do it. There's one recorded on vinyl that sounds like it's been done underwater. If they did it again that's just idea they could use. Geez, some people don't half jump down your throat on here.

I am all for resurrecting this. Didn't Great Britain release a similar song around the same time, up and under?

Not jumping down anyone's throat, just a bit worried that you might have the men in white coats knocking at your door.

And why would I have them knocking on my door? For having an idea about the club re-recording a club song?

Wow, now I've said it out loud it does sound like a nutty idea. Thanks for making me realize how stupid it would be for the club to include the fans and reach out to the community.

Lighten up.

I'm fine, I'm just explaining myself. I've merely posted a little video and a few ideas. I'm not the one posting negative comments. Now my original idea has been de-railed from its intended purpose (sharing what I feel is a good little song.) And turned into what sounds like us bickering like children. All due to sarcy comments, never mind though ay?

What you don't appear to realise is that it's a free world and people are allowed to disagree with what you say. You think it's a good idea, I don't, and I'm entitled to say that. If I were to throw the toys out of the pram every time someone has a go at me, then I'd be forever picking them up. My last word on the subject (almost).

I do realise that. As the saying goes, it's not what you say. It's how you say it. And that's my last on the subject an all.

Don't be so techy, it would be a boring world if we all agreed on everything.

However, one thing we can all agree on surely is that nothing could beat "We are the Wiremen" as our Anthem?

It's up there with Les Millais IMO get's my vote if only I knew/could remember what the composer had in mind for the melody
