What goes on in the changing stays in the changing room. Especially that!

In this instance, if it works for the players then great stuff, let THEM sing and enjoy it. Long may it continue.

However, Reading has proved just how it can sound when parts of the crowd 'give it a bash'.

We've come a long, long way together
through the hard times and the good
I have to celebrate you baby
I have to praise you like I should

is perfect as the players take the applause of the PROPER FANS who have stayed on to salute the team.

This could maybe be played on the outer concourse speakers for those dashing for the train:

Where it began, I can't begin to knowing
But then I know it's growing strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who'd have believed you'd come along (on a free)

Hands, touching hands
Reaching out, touching me, touching you

Steeeeeve Sidwell's fine (ba ba ba)
Good times never seemed so good
From halfway line (ba ba ba)
I believed he never would
But now I.....

Say what you will about Neil D (and you will) but what a legend.

Anyone who has been to Reading away should now HATE that song.

A big NO from me.

Now agree with not adopting it because of that lot. But it is a great song, just like glad all over is a great 60s pop song.
 




Could sing this one if we draw?

La la la
Pot, pot gimme some pot
Forget what you are,
You can be what you're not
High, high I wanna get high
You never give it up
If you give it a try...
La la la la
(teenage vocals)
La la la
Pot, pot gimme some pot
Forget what you are,
You can be what you're not
Do, do take a family cruise
You with your grass,
Mom and Dad with their booze
Ooo ooo
La la la la
(teenage vocals)
La la la
Pot, pot gimme some pot
Forget what you are
You can be what you're not
Tough, tough the world is so tough
And when it gets harder,
You can try stuff ,uh uh
(teenage vocals)
La la la
Pot, pot gimme some pot
Forget what you are,
You can be what you're not
Hip, hip you wanna be hip
You're no one at all
If you don't take a trip

Pot pot gimme some pot
Forget what you are,
You can be what you're not
Hip, hip you wanna be hip
You're no one at all
If you don't take a trip:moo:

Personally I can't wait to the left side of the north singing this at completely the wrong time as the right side of the north, the intermingled mumblings only occasionally broken by an out of time, and out of tune 'Ba ba ba!" :thumbsup:

I've loathed that song ever since Reading felt the need to play it approximately 27 times that occasion we played up there.

If it makes the players happy, I've no problem with that. I'll be grinding my teeth if anybody else does though :lol:

I suggested changing "Caroline" for "Calderon" 5 years again, it would have been brilliant but there you go.

Vividly remember this being played at Reading last October/November time when we were on that unbeaten run.

Think we ended up drawing but it was taking a while to leave the empty ground and this was playing. Remaining away fans joined in and sung pretty loud. Wonder if this was where it started..

You lot are a right bunch of bores. Who cares if Reading played it once.

Lets all have a big Amex singalong, to a humdinger of a tune.
