Not a complaint so no high horses required - it sounds totally deafening and amazing when sung a bit slower, but last night it was like fans in the North stand were having a race to see who could finish first :eek:

People then cant keep up, others start the next line early, different stands then try to join in but its all over the place by then and it ends up fizzling out way before it needs to

It would sound incredible to the players on the pitch if we nailed it and continued it - knuckles in lets do it for the Wigan game :albion2:

We're on our way
We're on our way
How we'll get there I don't know
But we'll get there really, really, really fast.

I just assumed everybody wanted to get back to:-

'We're on our way'

as soon as physically possible.

If we want our players and the away fans to feel it in its full spine-tingling force, we have got to slow the 'how do we get there bits' down so more voices can join in

we don't sing any other songs at double speed do we? can you imagine 'go left go left' sung even faster :laugh:

The worst one was the Craig Mackail-Smith chant

The "do do do's" literally used to make my jaw ache. It was exhausting, like verbal morse code or something.

LA...wishing it was devon..
well if youdve heard the chap at the west lower / swc border last night and HIS rendition of we're on our way... you wouldnt be complaining of the speed... it was his own special version in his own style... mightily amusing.... although would def pass on an evening of karaoke with him!!

Really? Don't think I'd say it's anything like spine chilling.

Huddersfield fans are singing it too now apparently. One of the teams isn't on there way...

And I'm in the North and I shan't be singing it until we're actually on our way. Bah humbug.
