[Albion] Clubs anthem

[The Major]

it would be great when the crowd sing Sussex by the Sea they didn’t clap! You don’t hear other clubs anthems spoilt by clapping.
Just a thought

 

[Goldstone1976]

It would be great if Palace fans didn't sing 'Crap all over', even though it is of course true.

Absolutely.

 

[BevBHA]

Now now we can’t have everything at once I’m just happy they’ve taken the tin pot words off the screen, it was embarrassing !!

Yes, you are correct.

I've already started the trend. One fan at a time, we'll get there.

(After that we'll work on slowing down the singing of it during the game)

Seconded (have never clapped)

 

[Mad as my Mother]

I didn't clap this week, my hands were way too cold to take them out of my pockets, hope that helps.

 

[lawros left foot]

Never clapped SBTS.

As an aside, my seat at the south end of the WSU overlooks( kind of) the away supporters.

The amount of away fans waving their arms as if conducting an orchestra is quite surprising.

You would think they’d realise what pricks they look.

I had a Bovril to hold, sorry lads

 

[lawros left foot]

This has got me thinking now. Is SBTS the oldest club anthem?
Written in 1907, is there any club anthems , still regularly sung, that pre-date it?

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Yes, you are correct.

And in 5 years time we'll have a descant section for the ladies and the schoolboys.

I'd rather the crowd managed to sing 'oh Sussex' and 'you may' where relevant but hey ho.

ESU ?

Our average fan likes Strictly come dancing, it’s what they do…

No.

Crystal Palace have been singing Beowulf since 838 BC

 

[pigmanovich]

ESU ?

Usually sit in north but was in south this time.

 

[LamieRobertson]

ESU ?

Nah we were holding our poppy cards

 

[LamieRobertson]

Can’t remember clapping before but now you’ve mentioned it I’ll make sure I do in future

But, but, but we’re unique don’t you know? Just because no-one else doesn’t (I’m sure some do) doesn’t mean we shouldn’t, after all, we always have done.

 

[Deadly Danson]

I don't mind GOSBTS being where it is now but does anyone feel that the players coming out now feels soulless and dampens the atmosphere? Can't we ask Fatboy to write a stirring new singalong anthem for the boys to come out to?
