These things are organic. After Friday, we're stuck with the "Glenn Murray's On Fire" number now, for better or worse.

Speaking of Friday's songs, just GRAND to see the ever-crappy "Ring Of Fire" binned before kick-off together with all its associated scarf-twirling show of muppetry :wave:

Is was there...

Just a terrible version played by the club.

Happy to move on from RoF, but what on earth was the relevance of The Great Escape BEFORE a match? (0-2 into a second leg, the obvious exception)

Strange thread.

1. Newcastle sang it first about mitrovic.

2. We stole knockaerts song off Newcastle. And then West Ham took it and we basically copied their words.

So why is it wrong to do it for this?

In fact, had they not binned work-experience places, I'd have suggested that it was a work experience kid running the PA all evening on Friday - TGE before ko, and then by mistake for a few seconds AFTER ko, terrible effort at fading the volume in / out during GOSBTS, and worst of all, NO gosbts for the second half.

Yea it was pretty shocking all round, made worse by the reduced crowd/atmosphere due to no trains.

Wigan song - get your 90's dance albums out and find another tune for Murray

Murray left us in and we caught him red-handed
Playing for the club next door (It wasn't me)
Picture this he was so so hated
The dirty skanky Palace whore (It wasn't me)

Please stop the Will Grigg song. Please. Cringeworthy.

Too late. It's caught on now, complete with in-seat bouncing in the North. It'll be sung time and time again as Murray surpasses Hemed and Baldock's joint total of goals for last season. In fact he'll probably have surpassed Baldock's total by the end of this month :lol:

Pretty much this. It's easy words so more join in, init.

Get over it, who gives a fu*k if the song snobs on here don't like it I'd imagine most of those don't even sing

Build a bonfire... :jester:


Jiri Skalak, Jiri Skalak,
came to us, from Boreslaw
He's a headcase
But he is ace
He'll feed Murray, and we'll score

Jiri's ****ing mental, etc

Skalak's chant is just Skalak shouted to the attack, attack, attack attack attack chant. No point messing with what is already genius.

Leeds - but not the dirty bit
What's the odds those moaning about songs never sing anyway, they just want to be sung to in an original way

Someone needs to adapt this into some appropriate words...

Hey you, don't watch that
Watch this!
This is the heavy heavy monster sound
The nuttiest sound around
So if you've come in off the street
And you're beginning to feel the heat
Well listen buster
You better start to move your feet
To the rockinest, rock-steady beat
Of madness
One step beyond!

Exactly. Songs and chants have been copied and altered since I first started going to football in 1966. Everyone used to sing "you'll never walk alone" with scarves held up like Liverpool and no one batted an eyelid. I believe Celtic still do it. Yeah sure, it would be great if we only sung brilliantly original songs - but that's never going to happen. And it's FAR better that we sing SOMETHING as opposed to just sitting their in silence.

This reached it's nadir a few seasons ago when we used to have that "We are the north stand the north stand the north stand ..." chant. The songwankers complained because Palace had used it. Good job they weren't around in the 1970s when we nicked Palace's "Eagles" chant!

I'm probably nearly your age, but I completely disagree. There again I am such a snob that I pretty much never sang anything at football apart from OUR SBTS until I turned 40. I cringed when the 'seagulls' chant started. The Palace just laughed at us. Fortunately the present lot of Nigels have short memories. But in my dotage I have come to terms with my inner naffness, and will belt out pretty much anything these days. 'Oh Gary Hart', one drunken afternoon, probably started me down this path. I quite enjoy it now. What was the question again?

:lolol:

I tried to start something in the North once (er, Withdean) and was shushed. Shushed! :ohmy::O

We were surprised to see Glenn's suitcase by the door.
Remember the good times, now he's back for more.
