1997 Club
Well done everyone at Build A Bonfire at Komedia last night. Absolutely FANTASTIC. Here's the poem I started with - the sequel to 'Goldstone Ghosts'
FROM HEREFORD TO HERE
With sheer determination
Without a hint of fear
We made the noise which brought the boys
From Hereford to here.
First - BISA. The fightback begun.
Concorde Club, Monday night.
We called for help to save our club.
We got it. Thanks, Dick Knight.
So many colours joined with ours
On Fans’ United Day
And then we drew at Hereford
And drank the night away.
A joyous celebration
Washed down by lakes of beer -
We made the noise which brought the boys
From Hereford to here.
Homeless. ‘Right, Brighton Council.
Find us somewhere to play.
‘Cos we’re the Seagulls Party now
And we’ll vote you away..…’
Withdean. Bobby Zamora.
We really cut a dash.
He scored the goals which took us up –
I cheered and played the Clash![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
With pride and dedication
A vision fine and clear
We made the noise which brought the boys
From Hereford to here.
To Falmer now, our final goal.
It took so bloody long!
Petitions. Demonstrations.
A Top 20 hit song…
Our lovely Falmer Stadium.
The Board may not agree.
I’ve never had a credit card.
It’s still Falmer to me.
With hope and expectation
And yes, a little tear
We made the noise which brought the boys
From Hereford to here.
The fight is won. We're fans again.
All cheering on our team.
A glorious end to twenty years.
Fulfilment of our dream.
The Albion in the Premier League -
And we’ve all played our part.
We’re more than corporate football here.
We’re football’s beating heart.
With sheer determination
Without a hint of fear
We made the noise which brought the boys
From Hereford to here.
With hope and expectation
And, yes, a little tear
We made the noise which brought the boys
From Hereford to here.
This is our celebration
So have another beer -
We’ve made the noise and brought the boys
From Hereford.....
To here.
