I like it, but I only get to a couple of games each year, so can understand it might get old and dirgey?
I say bring back "Una Paloma Blanca" and "It's Magic"

For those who think it’s a ‘dirge’ there is a more upbeat version here:

My advice to others is don't click on that link and listen! Jesus.

I personally don't care for it, but I wouldn't be upset if it stayed.. Although it should definitely be played before the 15 minute run up to a match!

If you want a suicidal mood ahead of kickoff then yes.

Yes! Would be nice to keep some of our Welsh roots at a time when we’ll be increasingly pulled towards Stateside influences

Yes, because so few other Welsh songs are played at the Cae Ras.

I don’t mind hearing it at like 2:30 (not that I’ll be in the ground), but as the teams walk out, it’s a no from me. Hopeless task for whoever has to choose the song to replace it. There will be a poll next season asking if we still want it.

It's a no from me ... as someone else said, let's keep the politics out of it ...

And besides, just what exactly is wrong with "Wrexham Is The Name!" ?
