wow , this is class :thumbsup:

and to others , i don't get why you wouldn't wont to do this ???

and can i have a constructive reply please instead of 'im not 12'

Having seen it first hand, it does look class. It is obviously not original for Man City to do it. I believe Celtic do it also. To tell the truth I just dont get this whole " you have to be original stuff". OK we have good old sussex by the sea. ORIGINAL ... Good excellent. Now how about the other songs.

Coming down old shoreham road - thats from a newcastle song.

She wore that yellow ribbon during FA CUP - Every club sings it

Albion ALBION ALBION - Sung two different ways. Every club sings there team name to the same tune. Crikey I bet West Brom sing it with the same word.

THE ONLY ORIGINAL ONE WE HAVE IS GOSBTS

So now that we have got rid of this orginal rubbish we can get on with just doing shit that looks and sounds good. Personally I couldnt give a monkeys if anyone else does it or not. Its way better than sitting in silence with a shite atmosphere.

Unfortunately terminator the Albion has pretty much missed out on a generation of young fans over the last 15 years and so we have a club with quite a large amount of OLD FARTS that will not sing ( Other than seaguils ) and certainly do not have the energy to jump up and down.

Sure the NORTH STAND WILL. But the great thing about the clubs that do the poznan is EVERYONE DOES IT.

Oh and I am not suggesting anyone who has posted on here is an old fart before I get into a row.

f*** off it'd be brilliant. It's this mentality leaves us with doing the sane three chants over and over. It wouldn't happen but I'd love to see the whole stadium doing it. It'd look amazing.

I would also LOVE to see us sing something that just went on and on for about 20 minutes.

I remember West Ham fans singing Billy Bonds claret and blue army for an entire half of their FA CUP semi final match. Probably because they were getting battered at the time but it sounded great.

[MENTION=704]Tummy Burger[/MENTION] I actually agree with you! Most chants in football are re-cycled. However if we did the Poznan, all we would be doing is copying Manchester City - although I didn't know Celtic did it too.

We need stuff to get the Amex buzzing - but I do think we need to add our own twist to things.

You JCLs - obviously you missed the good old days, when we used to sing "Alan Mullery's Blue & White Army for hours", or multiple verses of "go left go, left...".

Why try to imitate some shit from a third world footballing country? Just get the old songs - and some new ones - going.

Yeah , I confess I am far too young and good looking to remember Mullery. Barry Lloyd on the other hand.......

Obviously Lecce Poznan were the originators but it seems to have caught on elsewhere. The reason it has caught on though is because it looks good. But regardless it will never take off at the AMEX. Just do not have that sort of fan base. However we are more than capable of making some noise. But I DO agree, anything that we can claim as our own will always feel a little bit more special. That's why GOSBTS will always stay with us, and rightly so.

Most importantly though, starting from Spurs game, we need to start how we mean to go on. Making a bloody racket. Everyone should make noise in the North. However WSU ( Where I am ) will be hit and miss. I am blatantly just going to get drunk tomorrow and let everyone sitting around me ,let em know what they are going to have to put up with for the whole season......... They may as well get used to it.

Noisy , drunk , young good looking type. LOL

I can remember 2 occasions where we have done the same but with "Nobby Horton's Blue & White Army" which also demonstrates how long ago that was.

As for the Poznan thing, from me it is a no-no. I understand the argument that not many chants are truly original anymore but this is a little different. That celebration has pretty much become known as Man City's thing in English football and is why no one else does it...So why should we?

I do actually like the 'Poznan' but we will just be copying City...But what it should do is act as an inspiration to to come up with something of our own...

Albion & England forever.

How about we try planking when we score.....most of the people I sat with at the Withdean were asleep most of the time anyway, so wouldn't be too much of a stress. Make a good pic too.

I won't be turning my back on the game personally but up for a jump if something original were planned. Needs a song to go with it maybe to make it original

How about when we score, we all shout YEAH! and start celebrating amongst each other the traditional way. But on consideration maybe that isn't original? But anyway no we shouldn't.

Not a fan of the Poznan and would be cringe worthy if we tried it. Although it would be hilarious to see the 1901 club do it!

I quite like "we're gonna score in a minute, score in a minute 5,4,3,2,1..........go mental" when the games a bit dull.
