White is all hues on the visible light spectrum so really it is a shade.
Red and white stripes together make pink.
'Come on you pinks'?

Oh when the reds go marching in song can send tingles down your neck….but we ain’t the reds. We should stick with Delilah imo.

Red is the colour most associated with us having the red and white stripes I guess.
Majority of training gears been red over the years, official club website and even the oatcake site is predominantly red also. Most club souvenir related items are red. Perhaps our nearest neighbours being predominantly white has had a bearing on us associating ourselves with red more so than the white over the years. Red and White sounds better than White & Red so the Red being written first may have a meaning.
'Tell the lads in Red & White, everything will be alright'!

"Tell the lads in white and red - in 70 years you'll all be dead" - sounds just as good to me!  |

Doesn't even make sense, how can you be the Pride of the Midlands, and the cock of the North? And why on earth would we want be a load of cocks? |

Asked the same question on here before,then get shot down even thinking about it, stupid song, when was Pride of the midlands cock of the north,last sung ? Because if you sit and think about it for not even a minute, you can work out it just makes sense and that should be the end of it. At no point should someone think long enough about it, that it warrants an entire thread of discussion, because it’s a stupid question and that’s why you were shot down. You’ve suggested a song with Cock of the North in it, again, not surprised you were shot down 😂😂 |

I've been trying to research to see if there was some further meaning behind "oh when the reds" but it brought me to this thread from the other week 😅 I guess it is just the red stripe. I do love the chant and it's almost spiritual when sung in harmony but lyrically it does feel a bit odd. Also can someone possibly share the Bae Junho song lyrics please. Most away days this season I've been too pissed or hungover to fully grasp all the words. And at home games I sit with my fellow prawn sandwich brigade so rarely hear it sung around us. Thanks in advance 🤗 |

Was a bit annoyingly to hear “you must be shit we are winning at home”
Thought it was a terrible tbh especially given the performance on the pitch
