Paul McCartney & Wings - Mull Of Kintyre
Nottingham Forest supporters have two main anthems, snippets of both of which are played on the tannoy before each half of a match begins at the City Ground. One of them is "City Ground", sung to the tune of Mull of Kintyre by Paul McCartney and Wings. Forest fans have adapted the verses, and the anthem features lyrics such as "Oh mist rolling in from the Trent" and "Far have I travelled, much have I seen, Goodison, Anfield are places I've been".

The Animals Went In Two By Two, hurrah!
To the well-known tune "The Animals Went In Two By Two, hurrah!" is sung the words "When Derby go down again and again, we'll sing, we'll sing". The song goes on: "When Ian Moore scores a goal, you can shove your Hector up your hole, and we'll all go mad when Derby go down again". This refers to '60s Forest favourite Ian Storey-Moore, and Kevin Hector, a similarly prolific goalscorer for bitter rivals Derby County.
