On the subject of football songs, it was great to here the crew at St Andrews singing the original words to the great song.

I've written a brief blog about it, including Kipling's original verses to Sussex.

I'd love to hear the song sung at the AMEX in its original form. It makes the hairs stand up on the back of my head.

[MENTION=29098]Sussaxon[/MENTION] will be proud.

Especially as they realised rather quickly that the newer version wasn't as popular. Sounds like you missed the attempt to change it a little. I hope you are flying down, that's a fair old trip.
