Why not? It's another example of the sterilisation of matchday experience. Massively tin pot.
Just because you don't care there's no need to thumbs down other views.

Famously the 6-0 cup replay at Highbury versus Rotherham in 1960
Words fail me (pun intented), the JCLs are taking over the club, what next a bloody drummer ?
To those moaning it is tinpot or cringey. STFU and sing your heart out, 20,000 plus Albion fans singing this in harmony should sound amazing. How people see this as a negative I have NO IDEA.

The choice is between modern style and a bit shit or modern style done well with tradition respected and a good atmosphere...
Was sort of hoping that in time (and literally.. in time) it'll be sung with a large number of fans holding scarves aloft, therefore making it impossible to clap along. But that might just be a pipe dream of mine.An unpopular key factor for me will be whether people can be weaned off clapping. The soldiers didn't clap and it will be infinitely better sung without clapping...
Wish I was old enough to have been at that game. 'Greatest ever performance by an Albion team' at the time, I believe.

And they will do again.The original words were sung at Albion matches before Norman Wisdom's version. I know it's a long time ago but I have a clear memory of it being sung when Albion briefly led Burnley (then Div. 1 champions) in the cup tie in 1961. Unfortunately the lead was short-lived so the singing abruptly ended. In those days many fans knew the words of at least the first verse.

This. There is no doubt that ultimately it will be brilliant. I'm going scarf aloft full volume belting out today.Great stuff. Even more wonderful that it won't take long before the people against it will look like PLONKERS for thinking its a shit idea. Give it a few months.
