Mighty Quin song came out late sixties before the player Steve Quin played, they were singing it at WAKEY ground well before Steve Quin, I was there with the lads under the old wood score board & behind those goal
Posts ! Also in the early sixties before kick off Telstar record was played at every match !
All facts,
However my favourite was when chanting of champions was done/carried out by all supporters as we were champions then & went on to be double champions consecutively ! But what price memories, I wou!d love to see us win something again in my life time, up the Trin !

Trin Trin bang on there.
‘Mighty Trin’ is what we sang after ‘Mighty Quin’ hit for Manfred Mann.

Ooh ahh Fifita! Ooh ahh Fifita! Ooh aah ooh ahh ooh aah Fifita!


We'll drink a drink a drink
To David the King the King the King
He's the leader of our rugby team
He's the greatest
Prop forward
That the world has ever seen

So, time to revive this old favourite?

“The Mighty Trin”

(Whistle Intro)

Chorus 1
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin

(Whistle Interlude)

Verse 1
Everybody's building dreams and hopes
Some are building stadiums, others are jotting down notes
Everybody feels despair, every girl and boy
But when Billy Tupou gets set free, everybody's gonna jump for joy

Chorus 2
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin

(Whistle Interlude)

Verse 2
I like to go just like the rest, I like my East Stand seat
No jumping queues and blocking views, just eatin’ pies wi’ meat
Everyone's beneath the trees, Tommy Johnstone's on the wing
But when Dave Fifita gets good ball, all defenders’ gonna run to him

Chorus 3
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin

Verse 3
Let me do what I wanna do, I came to see 'em all
Chez tells you where he’ll put 'em and I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep, there's someone on everyone's toe
But when Pauli runs to the North Stand, everybody's gonna wanna know

Chorus 4 (Repeat to Fade)
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Trin


Based on the Manfred Mann version with minimal changes to allow a sing-along to the original.

I'd suggest...

Come all without, (clap clap) come all within (clap clap)

bit of clapping always adds to the appeal

Start singing at kick off and should finish by half time.

Truth is nobody will hear it as the club insists on playing bland music far to loudly just before the kick off. I'm probably alone on this but I think it ruins the atmosphere a bit.

Ideally, I would envisage it being adopted more 'officially' by the club. So, it could be played over the sound system before/after the game as a sing-along. A bit like 'sweet Caroline' at Cas, but obviously much better

Even better if we could get a local band to record an official cover version with an accompanying video of action.

I agree that the pre-game stuff with all the lining up and flags seems to subdue the atmosphere. As a regular feature, a rendition of a club 'anthem' could build anticipation and increase excitement.

Impromptu a capella bursts of the chorus from the north stand would always be a bonus.

It looks long when you write it down, but the original song is only 2 minutes 48 seconds long.

There is a Trinity rap kicking around somewhere, early 90's. It old hat now but the guy who did it is still around I think though he doesn't activly post on here. I think he was called Benny the Ball??? If he still views every now and then he might want to help as he did have access to a recording studio, I say did.

Best of luck but if you need any help let me know.
