WTF!! Charlton nick our nickname

[burslems finest]

thought that was leyton orient fans started that?

[Tone]

Charlton's name is after The Valley where they play.

 

But they have only been there since 1919 (the same year Vale apparently adopted the nickname The Valiants).

 

So who was first?

[Average Valiant]

same as Arsenal singing OUR song ..the wonder of you

.

 

That really hacked me off. They decided they needed more atmosphere at their morgue of a stadium. And of all the songs they could choose, they pick a not very well known elvis song. OUR ELVIS SONG!!

 

How many years have we been using The Wonder of You by the way?

Far too long. Arsenal are welcome to it, wish we could find something new and better

Haven't we got that Port Vale war cry or summit like that. Always thought it would be good if the players ran out to an original club song like the one they have at Luton and Everton. Think even Stoke have got one now, occassionally get the last bit of it on MOTD.

' Now Boys are you Ready'.

 

Don't quite follow mate

[Howjy04]

Don't quite follow mate

 

That used to be the Vale song.Please excuse me if the words are slightly wrong.

 

' Now boys are you ready

Let your voices ring

This is the chorus

So don't forget to sing

When we reach the finish

We'll make the crowd turn pale

Now boys are you ready

Play up Play up Port Vale.

[Valiant in Brum]

Charlton hae been the valiants as far back as I remember, due to the valley.

[Average Valiant]

There's nothing wrong with The Wonder Of You! When you hear that song do you not immediately picture Vale park on a cloudy afternoon with the smell of pies in the air?

 

It's better thay ****ing Delilah! And ours could mean (....at a push) somebody's love of their football team. Theirs is just toss!
