The ERS corner singing section (Good move)

Wholeheartedly disagree with those who say Yma O Hyd is depressing. It's a fantastic patriotic anthem and it makes me proud to be a Welshman when I'm singing it against the (usually) English opposition. It was absolutely class on Boxing Day against Salford the whole tech end belting it out, far from depressing, the complete opposite in fact.

Despite everything
We ARE still here

Most enjoy Yma o Hyd being played and sing along to it so there's no reason to ditch it. Some of the music choices are more than questionable mind. At least we're not blasting status bloody quo out after every game anymore.

I’m enjoying “Wrexham is the Name” being sung (and clapped) pre game as the players come out. Usually it’s just background music.

Yes to this.

Like a proper club, the announcer should NOT talk over the clapping.

Proper identity

No your right - we got the Quo at half time instead.
Roll over lay down - from the Wrexham FC 1973 vinyl collection.
Things could be far worse - lets hope the Bay City Rollers greatest hits don't turn up anytime soon.

I am Welsh and very proud, but these songs are just not the kind to inspire the overall atmosphere. Think back to when songs such as sweet Caroline and Dakota are played, really gets the crowd going and joining in and creates a great buzz.
As I said music has been mentioned on many occasions and suggestions made, but for some reason notice doesn't appear to be taken. Just my opinion.

Agree on every level, yma o hyd is garbage...yes yes I understand the sentiment and everything but to put it bluntly it kills the atmosphere and generally sounds dire. Brighton do it properly I remember from the FA cup game a few years ago, gets you in the mood for the game.
