And I think Gymnastics might be best served with one poll for them. (And this also works as a fantastic two fingers to my games teachers!) Same with the Equestrian (statue... Bonzo Dog, no?...) Any more ideas? Keep them coming! And a flag to represent them sounds good, if someone else does it first. * This is the first time ive been on here in ages, hope I got the idea right?? added a few with black bold type, think it's a good idea. Valley Boy sounds like Volleyball Tennessee sounds like Tennis What sport do Australia usually win? Don't forget GOLD Against The Soul, GOLDen Platitudes. Bronze and Silver must be lyrics in some songs too... THis Joke Sport Severed could surely be in for all events...endless possibilites for this... |

Add to that: Black Horse Apocolype (Nat west Barclays Midlands Lloyds)
for any Equestrian/Horse related event. REPEAT for any event that does the same thing again, like if they have an 800 metres. Did we have a previous event in Montana, in Autumn 1978? * plus off topic, but maybe a football World Cup is in order with 6 groups of those countries mentioned in MSP songs (including cities - use the country they are in): Poland, Russia (Sleepy Moscow- Let Robeson Sing), Cuba, Wales (Cardiff Afterlife), Mexico, Northern Ireland (Belfast Wall - Democracy Coma), Cambodia (Kyhmer Rouge), England (F**k Queen and Country - REPEAT), Australia, USA (countless songs). Any footy fans up for that? Or do we have to wait for 2014? |

ulstermanic, thanks for your input! You can set up a European Manics songs thing if you want to. I thought seeing as it's so long since London has had the Olympics and given that the Manics won't be getting a look in at any of the ceremonies (Losing out to Keith Moon...) I thought a thread like this would even things out.
But keep the titles coming! I'll edit them into my post nearer the time. With most Manics polls, it's usually A Design For Life or Motorcycle Emptiness that wins. If this comes off right, the results will be more unpredictable. |

Water Polo - Tsunami

I'm also thinking "Montana/Autumn/78" for another one for Wrestling.
Keep them coming. (And Tsunami is water related so...) |
