"There's an English song, that we currently sing in Curva Sud, which is the Liverpool traditional anthem and it's from 60..It says:
Walk on, walk on,
with hope in your heart ,
and you'll never walk alone,
you'll never walk alone.
There was a guy, in our group (tells the narrator) that had a record with all these songs, and he was from a group which doesn't use megaphones. The songs in that group start spontaneously. In this record there was this *You'll never walk alone*, which is a very emotional anthem and we liked it. So much that we tried to learn it. Due to our bad knowledge of the language we had to write down the lyrics. The guys at the beginning said *welcome* instead of *Walk on*. We explained the meaning of the words to the guys until we learnt it. This song made us famous all over Europe because we sang it when the Liverpool supporters died in Sheffield. It happened by saturday and we had the match against Real Madrid on sunday (that we won 5-1, a truly memorable moment)
We prepared a banner "SHEFFIELD: YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE" and waited for the minute of silence. We were prepared to sing the song and put the banner our, but the referee whistled the sudden start of the match. We put out the banner believing it was over but the referee suddenly stops the players and tributes 1 minute of silence in honour of the victims. I (narrator) was there, without even a micro but I stood up on the barrier and we started with this song *You'll never walk alone* without micro. I have the video at home and all the players are there standing up and you see the whole stadium standing up, and clapping. You can clearly see the referee staring at me because the song can be clearly be heard by the pitch and the whole Curva starts the song with great powerful voice. When I tell this I'm still proud and emotional. On English telly they showed it for 6 months and we got bags of letters from England: "You're friends of us and you'll be forever" - Tales from Brigate Rossoneri (tõlge by Giovanni@Milanmania)
sauce (Istanbulis oli see muidugi juba meelest läinud)
