Just Southampton and Bournemouth, by the looks of it. All the others are well inland.

Always good banter with you, Loz, because you’re a good man…reasonable and rational.
I very much hope we do…slightly worried that they appear to be playing better recently. But, if there is a God, Ratboy Fernandes will get two first yellow cards and we can ease to a comfortable win.
How do you feel about playing Graham Potters’ ‘Ammers this afternoon? Does his BHAFC association mark him down as a permanent enemy of CPFC or do you not give a shit?
I don’t really give a shit about Potter TBH.
I think considering Potter never managed to beat Palace they are quite fond of him
Even fonder now I suspect.I think considering Potter never managed to beat Palace they are quite fond of him
I'm not starting a new thread about Palarse....
Football 'anthems' on radio 5 now....
Glad All Over, is the Palace Anthem.
Dave Clark is a Spurs fan
His company, that own the chune, is called Spurs Music.
Heartwarming.

I think he did a couple of times with Chelsea, annoyingly.I think considering Potter never managed to beat Palace they are quite fond of him
It’s a pretty popular song for teams to come out to ( I personally have never really liked the song )
Football clubs that use "Glad All Over"
- Crystal Palace: A fan favorite at Selhurst Park, the song is often played after a home goal
- Blackpool: The song is played after a home goal and is considered the club's anthem
- Rotherham United: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Barrow: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Macclesfield: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Port Vale: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Swindon Town: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Working: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Yeovil Town: The song is used by this English Football League team
- Rangers: The song is used by this Scottish Football League club
- Partick Thistle: The song is used by this Scottish Football League club
- Dunfermline Athletic: The song is used by this Scottish Football League club
- Shamrock Rovers: The song is used by this Irish football club
Wow.
Ours of course is unique albeit, like the national anthem, it is a bit of a dirge.
(There, I said it).
Part of the problem is the key. I can sing the the start of GOSBTS in the lower register, owing to my manly voice.
But others waver between octaves, and the start of the song always sounds like we don't know the words.
Given that so many clubs sing glad all over it was weird R5 spent nearly half an hour discussing this 'Palace anthem'.
It's almost as of they didn't do any research.

There arent many teams that have a unique anthem . Most people in England would recognise YNWA as Liverpool, but several clubs use it-Borrusia and Celtic for example. Its hardly unique and other than being sung by Gerry and the Pacemakers 20 years after it was written, doesnt have historical links to Liverpool
Sussex By The Sea must be one of the few anthems that is linked historically not only to the club but to the actual area , SCCC use it as well, its a proper Sussex Anthem. Is there any club with a similar link to their song? Even Z Cars is used by Watford and Everton

well...... Watfords manager in 1963 was Bill McGarry, and he liked the tune, and changed to it after they lost to Peterborough on Oct 5 1963. They then went on a 29 match home unbeaten streak , and didn't lose at home till December 1964.
