Club song

[edit]

If you are a Wanderer, then sing along with me
We are the Eagles on the road to victory
All for one and one for all, will answer to the call
We're the greatest team of all

Good ol' Wanderers forever
We will always stick together
We will always do the bestest we do
For the good ol Gold and Blue!
