Just at the start and without the words on the screen.

Why did they decide to bring that back? Thought we'd moved past it like we did announcing the ****ing away attendance.

No words or tempo gauge on the screens, so much more fun 'away' when the clapping accelerates after the first line to demented seal proportions.

What we need is the fans to continue singing the song as it should leaving the demented hyper clappers looking really stupid. Much like the use of 'stand or fall' rather than 'going up', it has taken two seasons of persistence to the point that 99% of fans now sing the stand or fall line.

I am not a fan of it at the end, I like a bit of Praise You. I like how more and more seem to be joining in for the start of the game.

This. Should ONLY be sung at the beginning. Happy with the 'new' (old) lyrics and (for another couple of seasons) the words on the screen.

Not bothered what's played at HT or the end as long as it is by a local artist (FBS counts).

A must at the start.... but can we drop the lyrics appearing on the screen now please?

It was required for a while so the uneducated understood why there is a f**king big "Stand or Fall" sign at the back of the NS! But we are past that.

99% sign the correct words and the Police Box amongst other areas throw in a couple more verses during most matches so we are now past the point of putting up the words on screen.

Put them on the club website and in the programme if they have to be there for the JCL and football tourists, but the rest of us don't need them!

Am happy for it to be the music to come out to after HT, but not a full rendition by the crowds.

I like it's occassional appearance after the match when results and circumstance suggest, otherwise FBS.

When the players walk out for both halves and then again at the final whistle. Win, lose or draw - we're Brighton and Hove Albion and we represent Sussex by the Sea.

When the players come out for the first half is an absolute must. Second half I don't think it should be, as most people ambling back to their seats after half time.

I think at the end, it should be held for when we win 'big' matches. For example after the United game at the end of last season it was absolutely brilliant singing it, I know it came along with being safe from relegation, but just seemed to fit.
