I don't think we should have an anthem. In fact, I get fucked off at Arsenal because they play loads of adverts really loud before the game and the atmosphere even get a chance to take hold.
By the time you can hear yourself think, the match is about to start.
Turn the adverts and music off, let the atmosphere build up pre-kick off. If you're going to play songs, play classic Arsenal songs.

This is probably the most apt at the momentHow about something from Faith No More?

People loved him so
And helped him to grow
Everyone knew the thing that was best
Of course, he must invest
A penny won't do
But he made us proud
He made us rich
But how were we to know
He's counterfeit
Now everything's ruined

I used to love "Midlife Crisis".
Now it's just too close to home

Why do we need music blaring out to get the fans going?
I find that playing loud music in the lead up to kick off kills the atmosphere. I've been to a few games abroad and the fans get in the ground early and create the atmosphere by singing. At Wigan awayaway our support was just getting drowned out by the volume of the PA's choice of music, and you could barely hear what was being sung, it deadened the atmosphere considerably. Instead of arguing about what song to adopt as our anthem, maybe we should just put down our pints early, get to the ground and do the job ourselves. It's amazing what a group of football supporters can come up with when left to their own devices.
