You can email the club requests for songs to be played.
In fact, give us a list of your songs so we can see how the club can improve.


Respectfully, I don’t think we should trust the average stags fan to pick and email in songs that fit the purpose of generating a good pre-match atmosphere. It’s absolute tripe every week, culminating in Mansfield Magic and the Wonder of you.

Genuinely never paid any heed to it and we get there early so hear most of it. I do find it odd that this was the thing that stood out to your friends.

I would be loathe to get rid of Mansfield Magic though!

The wonder of you remake is the most tragic thing that’s ever happened in the history of not only our club but football in general.

Mansfield Magic is one of the greatest football songs ever made. If we were in the top league it would’ve sold thousands of copies.

It's the absolute toe curling pits. Every recording of it needs to be thrown into the fires of Mount Doom.

Mansfield Magic and On the Ball are uniquely ours, the Wonder of You is horrific and embarrassing. It needs the treatment Sneag suggests and then pissing on.

it would be a great opportunity to create an atmosphere pre-match

The one at Sheff Wed was embarrassing, masking the fact home supporters don’t sing and playing out crowd noise.

I think a few are overthinking this. All football anthems are pretty naff. Perhaps the best of the bunch was first sung by Liverpool fans in the early 60s But even that was taken from a 1940s stage musical. So it doesn’t get much worse than that.

Apologies in advance if I embarrass anyone, but I’ll be belting out yellows yellows on Monday, probably followed by a song about a tin pot trophy we won in 1987. Naff songs perhaps but at least they’re ours. Or alternatively, perhaps it best just to sit in silence like the bad old days!

Nothing wrong with on the ball to walk out too and anyone over the age of 10 caught dancing to goal music should be lined up and shot.
