I still think
 Time for action, by Secret Affair is the perfect song, listen to it lyrics a couple of time
Great tune!

The pronunciation of Bovril was a hard listen.

Big inadvertent 'Nigella Lawson at the tea-hut' vibes

A great effort by the OP, well done you.


Absolutely, I like it.  If we had a decent PA it could catch on.

New attempts at football songs are like Xmas songs. Never going to beat the old ones

Didn’t do owt for me. The cockney accent didn’t help.

Hearts’ Sunshine on Leith is a proper anthem. Just need some ‘Donny lyricist’ to tinker with the words & make it appropriate to Rovers.

Not for a moment suggesting any of these as anthems, but some alternate Rovers themed lyrics here:

Edit: Probably only worth looking at ones where you know the original song

Thanks for some of your wonderful words and comments about the song!

Just to be open and transparent I sent the song to the clubs media team on Monday and I’m currently awaiting them to respond!

If I hear anything I’ll up date you!

I’m from Doncaster!
This is my city, my club, my one true love!

Sorry if this is spam!

But after spending hours on social media I noted that there has been calls to have our own song like Arsenal do with North London Forever.

After several attempts I feel I have come up with the answer.

I came up with This is my city! The song is currently :( available to stream on the link below before it official release on 21st March on all major streaming services

I would love to hear people’s thoughts and if any one can help get this played on match day that help
Would be deeply appreciated!

Just wanted to provide an update.

The song has been re-recorded to capture my vocals being more reflective of being from Doncaster and will now be released under my actual name. The chorus has been lifted a bit to give it a bit more oomph.

The club are on board with the song and will play it during the prematch build up.

Here is a link to the new version:

I’ll keep it active for a few days for you guys to hear.

The song its self will be released on 8th August with the help of the club with all profits from digital sale of the song being donated to Doncaster Foodbank.

So if anyone wants to help with getting this song out to as many people as possible so we can raise some money to help people then let me know.

Thanks!
