    Cardiff were singing it at the back end of last season. Maybe adopted from them. Or Ajax, as they also sing it.

    Ajax, Cardiff sung it after Ajax came over for a friendly.

    Wish we'd get past the chorus though....

    Why do we have to change the tempo too? It gets faster and faster. Rubbish.

    It's not as original as some people think, but nothing like this ever is in football these days.

    At the Wednesday game a few weeks back, some of the younger 'fans' of ours had been singing "Stand Up, If You're Staying Up" for about 5 seconds when a great big basterd behind em said "Sit the **** darn". They did.

    I thought it was amusing.

    First time I heard it was Blackpool away.
