I don't know why, but the other day I was thinking about our theme song. A song I've loved for approx 45 years.

It occurred to me that lyrically it's quite uninspiring, it has two good lines that are good to belt out as a supporter.

Is it tired and dated?

Maybe this is just off season musings of a mad man.

The confusion between "send up" and "send us" is a frustration

Unlike some other clubs, the great thing is that it isn’t overplayed…

I struggle singing the line ‘never let us down’

The musings of a mad man for sure . ....................you must be joking KingK . A fantastic uplifting inspirational song . " K " , have a rest mate or see a shrink buddy . This would have to be the most crazy thing i have read on this site EVER .

One thing's for sure.

For many a year now, the players themselves (male and female) have not known the lyrics (We'll keep our ends up ).

Pathetic.

I changed it years ago to "always lets ya down".
Hopefully my version is less applicable this season and onwards.

Sometimes less is more.

A bit like this post as I initially thought we were going to revive the unpleasant connotations from eons ago

Why confusion ? It's ''send us'' that's it ! Not really confusing.
Reminds me of an old mate of mine, a Collingwood fanatic, who confessed one boozy day at the footy how much he liked the song.

I hear what you are saying KK.

When you compare it to the Tigers song for instance there's is clearly a better song for getting the energy levels up..

Maybe it will return when we start winning, or maybe even dominating in the near future.
