At a funeral next week for a City fan. We leave the crematorium to the sound of the city song Blue Moon. As a County supporter of 65 years, I have realised that there is no popular County song I could use to confirm my allegiance when my time comes. Slightly morbid I know, but I am sure all concerned would be proud to hear a song, and say “ That’s County’s song” I can only suggest the overpopular ‘Sweet County Time” by Neil Diamond.

Our version of blue moon is much better This is true of 'Delilah' as well. Anyway, you can't hear 'Snoopy Vs The Red Baron' without thinking about the skies over Edgeley. I prefer just not to hear Snoopy vs The Red Baron, tbh. It's shit. (The original, not the CBS version). Remember when it was played as run-out music? Peak Skrill North, that.

As said, been going for 65 years. A season ticket holder in the geriatric wing. Still do not know a recorded song that could be played when I leave. Hurry up, I’ve got a headache......

I'm all for a nice jaunty tune at the end of a funeral, how about 'United's shit, City's worse'?

I was banging this particular drum on Twitter recently without much success but I get misty eyed over "Streets Of Stockport." That smirking horror Nick Hancock poked fun at it but his opinion is worth roughly the same as any other Stoke-supporting Z-list has-been. Obviously people don't necessarily think of the tune as "County's song" but that was true of "Blue Moon" and City once. Streets of Stockport is a classic. Used to love belting that out, arms aloft, with gusto at many an away game.
