Home <\/a>>Story Index<\/a>> A Simple Message To The Players<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

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.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

Take Me To The Vetch Field. Way down by the Sea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Once Our City’s Football Team Were Known As Swansea Town<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And After Years In Division Two Slowly They Slipped Down<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
But We All Knew There’d Come A Time When We’d See Better Days<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
So Spread Your Wings You Silver Swans To Rise And Fly Away<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Swansea, Oh Swansea, Oh City Said I<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I’ll Stand There On The North Bank Until The Day I Die<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Take Me To The Vetch Field, Way Down By The Sea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The Swans They Are A Super Team Of That There Is No Doubt<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And In The Stands And Terraces For Swansea We Will Shout “SWANSEA”<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Many Places We Have Been And Many Tales To Tell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
For Wherever Swansea City Go The North Bank Goes As Well<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Swansea, Oh Swansea, Oh City Said I<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I’ll Stand There On The North Bank Until The Day I Die<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Take Me To The Vetch Field, Way Down By The Sea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
In The League Cup There Came Tottenham Who Were Lucky To Draw The Game<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And Therefore for the replay we went to White Hart Lane<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
No-one gave us any chance with Ardilies and Company<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
But you should have heard the Cockerel Cry when the Swans scored number 3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
So let’s go down to Swansea Bay and hear The North Bank roar<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And follow Tosh’s Super Swans wherever they may go<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The skill, the flair, the fluency will lead us to where we’re bound<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And once again all Europe will hear the Swansea City sound<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Swansea, Oh Swansea, Oh City Said I<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I’ll Stand There On The North Bank Until The Day I Die<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Take Me To The Vetch Field, Way Down By The Sea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Where I Will Follow Swansea, Swansea City<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Where I Will Follow Swansea, SWANSEA, Swansea City<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

Some of the words are a bit dated but most of them ring so true now. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Don’t let us down guys. You can make the difference and we will be with you.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

TOGETHER WE WILL DO THIS!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Many Thanks To Roger Evans for writing those words 25 years ago.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
