Home >Story Index> A Simple Message To The Players |
The message to the players from me is clear. They aren’t words that I wrote, but they are words we all know. We all believe in them and if the players do then we should be okay. |
Take Me To The Vetch Field. Way down by the Sea |
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City. |
Once Our City’s Football Team Were Known As Swansea Town |
And After Years In Division Two Slowly They Slipped Down |
But We All Knew There’d Come A Time When We’d See Better Days |
So Spread Your Wings You Silver Swans To Rise And Fly Away |
Swansea, Oh Swansea, Oh City Said I |
I’ll Stand There On The North Bank Until The Day I Die |
Take Me To The Vetch Field, Way Down By The Sea |
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City |
The Swans They Are A Super Team Of That There Is No Doubt |
And In The Stands And Terraces For Swansea We Will Shout “SWANSEA” |
Many Places We Have Been And Many Tales To Tell |
For Wherever Swansea City Go The North Bank Goes As Well |
Swansea, Oh Swansea, Oh City Said I |
I’ll Stand There On The North Bank Until The Day I Die |
Take Me To The Vetch Field, Way Down By The Sea |
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City |
In The League Cup There Came Tottenham Who Were Lucky To Draw The Game |
And Therefore for the replay we went to White Hart Lane |
No-one gave us any chance with Ardilies and Company |
But you should have heard the Cockerel Cry when the Swans scored number 3 |
So let’s go down to Swansea Bay and hear The North Bank roar |
And follow Tosh’s Super Swans wherever they may go |
The skill, the flair, the fluency will lead us to where we’re bound |
And once again all Europe will hear the Swansea City sound |
Swansea, Oh Swansea, Oh City Said I |
I’ll Stand There On The North Bank Until The Day I Die |
Take Me To The Vetch Field, Way Down By The Sea |
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City |
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City |
Where I Will Follow Swansea, SWANSEA, Swansea City |
Some of the words are a bit dated but most of them ring so true now. |
Don’t let us down guys. You can make the difference and we will be with you. |
TOGETHER WE WILL DO THIS! |
Many Thanks To Roger Evans for writing those words 25 years ago. |
