...Fire Fire.
Fire Fire.
Stupid b@£tards.
Stupid b@£tards.
repeat ad infinitum.

North stand starts, then West starts, hence singing a "Round". Be great if East and South Stands joined in as well.

Songs about fires in impoverished areas of London? Maybe not.

Why anyone would be motivated to even think of it and then bother starting a thread is beyond me. I mean, it's not even witty.

Exactly. It would give the club bad press and then they sing their homophobic songs in retaliation. We've got more class.

I’m certainly not the song police

I think all songs should be given a crack of the whip in the flesh.

Massive pat on the back to anyone that starts a song especially a new song

HOWEVER

You got your timing all wrong here.
