Music Grimsby have run out to

Hello everyone,

I hope this is okay to post here – if not, moderators please move or delete as appropriate.

I’m part of a team at the University of Sheffield, led by Dr Chris
Stride. We've published a number of academic papers and magazine
articles relating to football history, on subjects such as statues and
replica shirts (see, for example sportingstatues.com, and
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17460263.2019.1578255).
Our current project is investigating the music that football teams have
run or walked out of the tunnel to over the years.

We are looking for the music that Grimsby Town have run out to for as
many seasons in the past as you can recall. We are simply interested in
the title of the song, the artist who recorded it, and for which seasons
Grimsby ran out to this. Any help you can give us to
piece together the different songs that your club has run out to would
be hugely appreciated.

If you have any personal anecdotes around the reasons for the songs
being used, or the changes between them, that would also be fantastic.

I should also add that we are not interested in goal music, or a song
that is played at the final whistle, but just the song that is on the
tannoy system as the players enter the field.

If you think someone else may be able to help, or you have any
questions, please let us know!  We would be very happy to discuss the
project.

Thanks for your time guys,

Joe Headland

Secret Affair.

In 09/10 we definitely ran out to Madness - One Step Beyond. Perfect soundtrack to our comical performances.

We run out to The Boys Are Back in Town now, right? Which is perfect for us...(the boys are backing Town )

Not sure we’ve ever really had a proper track associated to us in recent times that we’ve stuck with for years (ala Sheff Wednesday and Waterfront by Simple Minds).

Did we used to run out to Tina Turner - Simply The Best in the 90s, or am I remembering wrong? Also remember PJ and Duncan-Ready To Rhumble getting blasted out a fair amount haha, might not have ran out to it though.

Europe - The Final Countdown?

Always look on the bright side of life a couple of times in the late 1980s.
