Christ. It got the North Stand bouncing and rocking didn't it? Using NSC logic, we best stop singing songs to the tune of Go West or Sloop John B then, which is er, all of them. Even the Amex's favourite son "Waaailllbi-yawn" was nicked from Liverpool.

Who's that man we signed from Rochdale
That man we once again adore
Glenn Murray is his name and he scores a goal a game
And we don't miss Poyet anymore

Can't sing that. Man United came up with it first.

The internet suggests you are correct, if only one of their lads had banged it out with a tambourine on line eh.

Spot on. We are so precious when it comes to singing. People would actually rather sit in silence than join in, then come on here and moan about the lack of atmosphere at games.

But at least it will make Burton Albion fans feel welcome.

Think many are missing the point with this one. Will Grigg's on fire is different in the sense it is very much, "WILL GRIGG's on fire". It is Wigan/Northern Ireland's song, it is his song. Stealing it is embarrassing, and not the same as taking another club's song and reappropriating it for our player, e.g we've got Knockaert...
Because this song took of in a huge way, everyone knows it as his, and Vardy's on fire got its deserving cringe reaction as theft and laziness at the Euros.

Glenn Murrays on fire, someone get a hose and pipe.

Mackenzie · Aug 13, 2016

Funny isn't it, people only cringe with embarrassment at the songs sung at home games. When we go away, have a good old sing along we get none of this.

Wasn't it a Newcastle effort originally for Mitro (Mitrovic, or however you spell it) ?

It's a football song. You don't need to overthink the situation!

Not seeing how it's any different, sorry. Just subsititue a different name in there as per all other player specific songs. Also didn't realise Wigan had fans, you live and learn.

I don't like it myself but if it gets going then fair play, couldn't care less as long as we're making noise. The origination of songs is usually one of the more cringeworthy debates.

The annoying thing is I posted a thread last season about getting it going for Hemed just before he scored a hat trick.

A few of us in the WSU tried to get it going but we were just looked at like a bunch of nobs. Queue Murray and all the mongs were joining in now its a well known and established song for one player. Oh well. My opinion is it doesnt Work for Murray and there are much better songs that can be created for him.

Muzza's on fire?

God awful rip off from another club and player.
Like others have said previously it's so cringey.
Ripping off this chant is something MK Dons fans would do.

martin tyler · Aug 13, 2016

This thread is funny. I didn't realise singing a song at football made so many people blush.
We all know it's not original. We all know Newcastle actually started it. We all know Wigan stole it and it was sung At the Euros. At the end of the day all decent songs at football get adapted for your own club. This is no different.

Ah well if I'm a 'mong' for celebrating a 3-0 win and our player scoring 2 goals, so be it. Happy to join in most songs if they get the supporters up and dont hurt anyone.

Wouldn't have been mongs if it was your song though?

The first team to sing it were Stevenage, fun fact for you all.

Looking forward to the Palace version.
