really excited about this game! purely for the feel Bent has created! really wish i was going UTV 2-1 villa!!

yes, agreed that the forums don't account for all villa fans but at least its something. lets get it onto the other forums and facebook to see what more people think, if no one likes it then fine, we'll drop it.

like JPA said the general has said the club would be fully behind it. soi i think we should still try to get it going, there are over 100k fans on facebook, if we get it on there and the OS then why not.

great optimism guys. not even worth a try?

I think we need to get a poll on here, then someone asks on the other fan sites to set some up on them, then somehow a poll on facebook, add the results together, head to the general, I'm for song sheets, but not words on the big screen.

damn it.

no paul you're correct it is the link i posted above ^

Not really sure that Stand by Me is the right choice to be honest . I just can't picture the Holte End singing out ......

"Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday , I've gotta lotta things to learn "

not sure you're thinking of the right one mate. its this..

great temp and quite relative lyrics IMO.

thanks julie. not too sure that would make a good anthem, good chant, but probably not anthem. im all for Stand by me or ghostriders whichever one it may be.

also agree with you there Julie, all the fansites and facebook group need to be agreed on one.

Can someone please post a link to 'The bells are ringing' ? excuse me not knowing, im only 17.

The Cash version of Ghost Riders won't work because the "yippee yi aaaay, yippee yi oooohhh" is the wrong way round to how we sing it.

may the PA guy could mute it while we sing that bit?

General:

6. Club anthem: I have been pushing for some time for the fans to choose the anthem...we will be right along side of your choice.

I really can see this working! We just need to chose an anthem that the majority of fans like! either Ghost Riders or Stand by me, IMO.

some people dont like this,some dont like that. by the sound of things its going to be quite hard to find a song/anthem everyone will agree on.

I really would like this to come off a I'm just wondering whether or not avfc would play one. if we went to them with our research and that I think they probably would

Lets begin to compile a list of candidates, then make a poll.

what I was thinking but then thought lets give it till monday maybe?

Stand By Me w/lyrics

very good shout IMO, can see this really working. either this or the ghost riders i reckon.

to the people that think this is an embarrassing idea and do not wish to participate in this project, then can you move onto another thread because we would not like to hear the criticism and negative attitudes. i believe that what we are trying to achieve here is brilliant and that it would improve the atmosphere astonishingly. Plus it would give VT a pretty good press too, 'the forum that founded the AVFC anthem'

Okay. Good luck. Genuinely.

thank you

i think it was i that suggested calling it 'Project Anthem' on the chants thread, oh yeah!!

I think thats a very good idea.

Verse is pretty long but I guess thats the idea of a club anthem.

An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day

Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw

A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel

Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky

For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry

Yippie yi Ohhhhh

Yippie yi yaaaaay

Ghost Riders in the sky

Is there a google translate for football chants?

definitely along the right lines there mate. I think an anthem at the start of every game would be electric.

I think we need to get a whole 'project anthem' thing going where everyone tries to put together an anthem then we vote on the best then we concentrate on getting into the stands.

COME ON!!!!!!!

UTV!!!!!

where would the live conference be shown? would love to watch it.

im 17 and this has to be one of, if not the, best I've felt about a signing i can remember!!!! :D

UTV!!!!!

now back to studies...

Done?

You gotta love Makouns jumper.

I know GH gets a lot of stick but he means busines. Makoun, Fofana, Walker and Bent all could be and have be signed up. Fofana failed the medical which wasn't his fault. We could still bring in Adam. The guy is a work horse in the transfer market. Bent would be one hell of a signing. Man I hate January exams. Wanna spend all my time on here finding out about transfers!

what exams you doing mate?

I've just done an AS level maths.

Maths degree lol

haha nice! good luck with it pal.
