Cheers for posting the words to this. I was stood with captain 13 and neither of us could work out all the words. It sounded brilliant though and can't wait to singing it myself. Great effort fellas

And when we win the league again we can finish it all off with:

The work is done, the scene is set
The Wigan dream can now be met
In a sea of red, we're here today
To sit and watch, the champions play

Ancient & Loyal upon my chest....

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Take out the words Wigan & red, swap it for Celtic & green and its the exact last verse of the Celtic version. It'll be on that video sharing site thing.

The good thing about the Celtic version is that fortunately, the story comes full circle, back to success. The Wigan version is stuck at 1995. It needs something about today. OK, not success, but something about the future perhaps.

ANCIENT & LOYAL UPON MY CHEST

Ancient and loyal, upon my chest
they are men of wigans best
a team that plaaayed, the wigan way
and won the championship in may

jim sullivan, he was the king
brian mctigue and johnny ring
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the championship in may

when eric ashton was alive
and billy boston by his side
with dave bolton and billy blan
oh what a time to be a fan

in 85, at wem-ber-ly
john ferguson and brett kenny
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the challenge cup in may

in 95 we won them all
tuigamala, faz and paul
a team that played the wigan way
and won the championship in may
