There are plenty of old Reading songs that would add variation..... but nobody sings them.

Finding a song that is associated with Reading is nigh on impossibe.
Didn't the women at AWE sing '...give peace a chance' as their swan-song.
Change it '...Reading are Class'.

Over and over will will see you through

Faithful through and through

If you go to Manchester you will see us there,
From Plymouth up to Sunderland we'll go anywhere,
We'll be there to cheer you as you travel round,
You can take us anywhere we wont let you down.

O-Over and over...

Does anyone else steal the national anthem?

We ARE the Royals after all. Plus it's easy to remember, as most people know all the words to the original and we're just changing a couple.

Inspired suggestion M4 but looking at that I hadn't realised Cilla was such a dreadful singer!. How did she ever make a career out of that?

a different Country m8. Or if you mean county - Liverpool are in a different county but you wouldn't want to sing You;ll never walk alone would you? I thought an anthem had to be unique. :roll:

Or to this tune

Lie-Low in the fields of Norfolk Road
Where once we watched the Shak, Quinn, Friday
(and Parkinson!)
We had Gilksey on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
But it's so lonley around the fields of Norfolk Road

Agree, the number of quality chants United had really exposed our support for what it is. Complete shite. As United belted our unique chant after unique chant all we could muster was chanting in time to a drum and the cringeworthy chants like 'Dud dud dud da Leroy Lita' and 'Dave Kitson what a bargain' :roll:

LOL.

Fields of Athenry is fine when Celtic sing it, but different versions are pathetic.
