Hull City fans and Elvis

[indymackem]

It’s seen as our football anthem across the country tbf. When we’re on tv, the commentators regularly make reference to it.

If Hull try and claim it, the vast majority of others will tell them to stop being silly and choose another tune.

100% this.

Couldn't care any less if they want to claim it, everyone associates it with us. And we're absolutely massive. And they're Hull.

I'd be trying to claim a new iconic song if my team was most closely associated with a song celebrating tigers bothering people (or people bothering tigers).

Who cares what they think, nothing club.

Hull city

Went there in the 80s sure one of the ends was a f***ing supermarket man.

Used to be decent Boothferry Park with identical terraces with stands above behind either goal. Then they knocked the one down at the road end to build Grandways supermarket @Silly Point

 

[PrivatePike]

They should cover something by notorious locals Throbbing Gristle.

Hamburger Lady !

And it’s own train station behind one of the stands.

Six floodlight pylons and one of the best pitches in the country (unlike the new place)

 

[Sandman]

They'll be claiming Raich Carter next.

Yes...it was a canny walk to the ground from Hull Paragon station

 

[Hvwinkle]

I think pre-social media most fans wouldn’t necessarily associate the song with us if I’m honest.

Same as other clubs and songs/ chants that I only know of social media/ videos over the years

Wise Men Say magazine dates back to 1988

 

[Hot Since 82]

The Big Turk wants us to have our own thing. Some have suggested Caravan of Love (Housemartins version) which they tried for a while a decade ago. I like it and the group but some object because of the negative connotations around caravans and Heaton being a Blade.

Think as a city and a club we just like to moan.

Get that complete drip who did that North London Forever shite to knock Hull a tune up
