    Who Should Replace Rafa?

    It's 6pm on Sunday evening in Merseyside. The last supporter trudges out of the Anfield turnstiles, his head hung low. Red scarves are left strewn amongst the litter in the aisles of the Kop. Somewhere outside you can hear the gleeful chorus of 'Glory, Glory Man United'. Liverpool have been...

    Can anyone tell me the name of the song played before the teams come out? It is an instrumental track that increases in tempo as it goes. It's been stuck in my head since Saturday afternoon, a real ear worm!
