Entrance of the Gladiators on 21:02 - Dec 11 by Sibelius8
To continue: As far as I can remember, the Fučik piece was used at least to the early 70s. The away team did indeed go onto the pitch first, Then the Town ran on. It was uplifting to hear that tune blasting away. I should add that that music was also used in circuses. It gained another title - "Entry of the Clowns." Anyway, I do think there is a need for one particular musical theme to be played at PR for the entry of our present gladiators, preferably not a "pop" tune, to coin a phrase. The music should transcend popular culture. Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyres" would do nicely, for example.
Okay, yep - I only know that as the Clown song!! The suggestion that the team should run out to it is unthinkable!!
