Why I Don’t Sing at the Amex?

I don’t sing at the Amex because…

  • I’m a middle-class southerner, for heaven’s sake, and we just don’t do that sort of thing down here.

    Votes: 13 26.0%
  • I’d rather chew off my own arm than sing in front of a bunch of complete strangers.

    Votes: 5 10.0%
  • I don’t start singing for no good reason in Waitrose. Why on earth should I do it at the Amex?

  • I’ve got a terrible voice anyway, and my wife totally forbids it.

    Votes: 4 8.0%
  • No one else in my row/block/stand/stadium does it, so why should I? Besides, I’d feel silly.

If a few more people joined in I'd keep going. No point when all I get is disapproving looks.

Mind you "oh we're going up to win the cup" annoys the flaccid 4r5e out of me. Bring back the 70s and get the words right.

I'd happily sing along if we sang this:

To the tune of:



Don't you ever, don't you ever
Stop being lanky, showing me you're cumbersome
Don't you ever, don't you ever
Stop being lanky, showing me you're cumbersome

Ince charging
Ince charging
Coordination is nothing to be scared of
Don't you ever, don't you ever
Stop being lanky, showing me you're cumbersome

Cheshire Cat

The most curious thing..
I don't sing because I don't go.

Where's the option for "Absent - hoovering"?

I don't understand why people sit in the North and don't sing. When they bought the ticket they must have known its the most vocal area of the ground. They cant be sitting there for the view! WSU wings are the same price for Season tickets and Family stand works out cheaper if got a kid with you too! With a much better view of the game.

Because most the songs are utter arse ripped off other teams.

Why the hell have we started singing Celtic's signature tune?

With all the excitement building of a home game (sorry, massive game) against Middlesbrough, thought it might be useful to find out why so many of our supporters don’t make very much noise. So, a poll. Hardly scientific, admittedly, but some horrible truths might possibly emerge from the woodwork.

Please be reassured that this poll is utterly anonymous, so your guilty secret will be preserved into eternity. So now, time to fess up.

I don’t sing at the Amex because…


How about this weekend singing the tune to the great escape to commemorate 72 men whom got out the camp.. On the 72 minute?

I don't sing, I chant. That is because I am very, very hard.

It's all going tits up - no one can be arsed to sing, most only turn up to watch 80 minutes of action. Are the chattering classes amongst our season ticket holders confusing Brighton and Hove Albion with a rugby union outfit?
