I think talk of having nothing to cheer is a little silly, that is the whole point of cheering to get the team back on the front foot,  that is a major part of being a fan for me, it is easy to keep the singing going, when you are winning, but it can have its best effect when you are losing or drawing, to give the team something to play for, to inspire them to do it for the fans, to run that bit harder or make that 50/50 ball.

We had a post sometime ago about songs from years ago and I do not remember this one being mentioned, but it is relevant to this post, it was song to the tune of Lord of the Dance and went  "Sing, Sing, wherever you may be, for we are the boys from the Black Country, and we'll lead you all wherever you may be we'll lead you all in a song said he " (there was another version about running and another about fighting, but I preferred this version.)

As much as I love The Liquidator, and yes it does stir the fans up and brings back many memories, the fact that it is not played, at the request of the police if my memory serves me correctly, should not be any reason why the fans are not getting behind the team and supporting them as vocally as possibly
