Songs 'N Chants

[MrCelery]

It's easily the easiest one to join in on. Simple & punchy. Huge noise from it at the GF because it's so easy to get on board with.

Agreed. Huge crowd helps too!

I introduced that at a Newcastle away game earlier this season. It was never meant to become a full time thing. Disagree that it’s pointless - seems to spur people to go harder, the noise when everyone explodes into it is 10x louder than the chant being done normally. Very cool visually too - I had a pretty decent view of it on Saturday

Never going to make everyone happy. Tbh I don’t like the “we sing for yellow” response, I’ve always been in the “we sing for mariners” camp, but it ain’t up to me to change it now.
f**k it was loud on Saturday though.

Yeah I've never liked the Yellow response either. Unfortunately brought in by a previous leader who is long gone.
First time we did that chant was 08 and even though I don't like it. I'd take We Sing For Yellow over some of the other trials we did.

Not popular I know but I always thought having the same syllables as LFC made an easy transition for Mariners. Trying to get people to sing on mass and loudly requires something really simple, especially when they're not members. Replacing Liverpool with Mariners ???

Used to be done back in the day but people tried to go too fast and it fizzled out

This one’s much more simple and it’ll sound like Ma riners, Ma riners, Ma riners. Bit boring and probably won’t work but just putting out an idea

To the tune of: Heaven Is a Place on Earth

By the palm trees plays a football team,
Kissing the badge is what it means,
No matter what we'll always follow you,
Central Coast the yellow and blue!

La lala lalalalala, la lala lalalalala, la lala lalalalala, la lala lalalalala.

I've suggested it before but got no interest... the Arsenal song is perfect for ripping off as has a good tune and is very easy to learn.

Adapted for our use it would go:

And it was Mariners
Mariners FC
By far the greatest team
Australia's ever seen

And it was Mariners etc

Proper football tune that could inspire the non-singing majority to join in.

What is the name of the Arsenal song that you suggested?

We'd call it the Mariners Song.

 

[Wombat]

Leeds used to sing it as well.....i think alot of clubs did.



And it's the Ma-rin-ners
Ma-rin-ners FC
We're by far the greatest team
The World have ever seen

[Allreet?]

Yeah, a few have used it, but I suspect it was Arsenal first - not least as it scans best with a three syllable name.

You could use Australia's ever seen as realistic. No-one truly believes the Mariners are the greatest team the world has ever seen, although it might be suggested that you're not a proper fan unless you believe they are.

 

[Allreet?]

Of course, what we really need to help with singing is a roof at the northern end.

Maybe if everyone brought a brolly...

 

[LFCMariners]

Slightly off-topic, but does anybody have a link to the video/s outside the KB before the 2008 GF?

 

[yellowcake]

There was no GF in 2008

(When I was abducted by aliens and mind-probed, that day was the one erased from my memory)

There was meant to be a GF in 2008, we were all down Foveaux St at the KB then marched up to the SFS in great spirit and voice, only to find the gates locked and a notice advising that for unforeseen reasons the 2007/08 A League GF had been called off. Thousands of Mariners fans traipsing away to the nearby pubs or back to Central for the train home was a sight to see. Felt like the air getting let out of a giant balloon.

Biggest let-down since the ending of Monty Python & The Holy Grail...

Mind probed?

You were lucky...

 

[LFCMariners]

Mind probed?

You were lucky...

I'll say. They missed the crushing disappointment of being full of piss and song and ready to win the Premiership/ GF double at the expense of the Scum, only to be turned away at the gates and realise we'd never know for sure it would've happened.

The phrase sh*t for brains springs to mind for some reason…..

 

[Archie]

Could do a bit of improvement but I think the bay needs an Allez Allez Allez chant.

Allez Allez Allez

I’ll never forget that day,
That I fell in love with you,
A love that lasts a lifetime,
For my team in yellow and blue,

We are always written off,
But then no one sees it coming,
When the Coasties boys are charging,
Straight for the premiership,

Allez Allez Allez,
Allez Allez Allez,
Allez Allez Allez,
Allez Allez Allez!

Solid effort Archie.
