Tom Hark was the walk out tune in 1991/92, way before anyone had even considered goal music. A lot of teams used it after us, Sheffield Utd, for example. Trailblazers.

Re: Florentino Luis

The week we signed him I was in Lisbon and the guy who owned our airbnb was a Benfica fan. He said he’s a really good player if you need someone who just breaks up play and gives it simple. Underselling him a touch on what I’ve seen so far and he’ll only get better when fully settled into this league.
