I play it in the car and on my dog walks. “And my two youngest have really taken to it as well. My wife Christine, sent me a voice note of my daughter singing it before a game.” “I can’t speak for them, but I’m sure that, like me, they will have a lot of affection and feeling for it and how the fans react to it pre-game.” ‘We’ll Live and Die in These Towns’ recently became adopted by Coventry fans and the song is now sung before every match.

It is now considered one of the best club anthems in England. Lampard admitted it would mean “a great deal” to earn promotion to the Premier League with Coventry prior to the club’s playoff meeting with Sunderland.
