Blues in Europe

Special nights these, under the lights.

Twelfth man? Seems more like thirteen
Attendance  irrelevant if you don't have the courage to dream 
Feeling blue. But feeling it through and through.
And one of our own, Is  surely feeling it too.
Bringing a city together, after so recently it fell
Is a tribute to history, heritage and hell, I'll say it: 

"Keep Right On"

A part of this city marches on.

Special nights these, under the lights.

The power of protest, from passionate fans
A testament to football that graces 
These lands,
Fathers and brothers and children and Mums
Keep st Andrews' heart beating
Despite dwindling funds
Far away tyrants, in distance and in feeling
To treat her like this, with proud wounds still healing.

They can't expect us to be silent.

I'll never forget today.

Were on our away. Were on our way.

Special nights these, under the lights.

A leader of men, a figure of hope
We've been wrong in the past
But give us the rope
Because were pulling harder than we've ever done before.
Attack! Attack! Keep hold of the ball!
A legend arises ,in just 90 minutes
Washing away the fear of failure
Were in it to win it.

Chim chim cheroo , the rest is on you.

Special nights these, under the lights.

The roar of the tired ,and weary,
Is Still a deafening sound
On nights like these, we're the best around,
The courage for humour and setting yourself up for a fall
But still pulling through and singing for all.
We've been through the mill, but we
Are haters of pity 
Who are ya? who are ya?
Were Birmingham City.

We've got Man U, then Spurs and then Liverpool,

Oh that's nice.

Were all going on a European tour.

Special nights these under the lights.

Special, special nights.

Thanks for the comments guys. It just dawned on me how important Europe was to a club like us. I might not get to see this ever again in my life and I'm going to relish and savory every moment win or lose.

Keep Right On.

pretty impressive.. your not really a brummie with a brain like that are you?? i'm guessing your 26/27 so maybe your still discovering yourself as-well as your team so with a bit of luck you'll grow out of it.. good luck with the yo yo

Haha okay Freud so I am 27. Please stay out of my garden and stop rooting around in my bin trying to find personal information. Your not the tramp they found living under the holte end are you?

Oh no that's right your a Wolves (walls, sausages) fan!

On that note then, I'm going to get my massive one eye out and only recognize the compliment of "pretty impressive". A skill that dingles have mastered.

On a serious note, cheers. SOTV

Great post mate.

I am with you on enjoying the European nights, as you say I might never see it again in my life time.

I have just booked up for Slovenia and Belguim and will be booking Portugal in October.

Roll on the home games too. Is there any news on when the home tickets go on sale for the first game?

Is the tickets for the Bruce game on sale yet? (away)
