Curious as too when they started because remember us singing it occasionally in the 70's


I don’t recall either because it’s before my time, but both clubs say it was ‘occasionally’ sung in the 70s

 

In terms of signing it en masse, in the stadium I definitely recall hearing Wolves do it in the mid-90s around the time of the Pressman penalty 

 

I don’t recall us doing it at any point outside of the last 10 years or so

Watches a match on TV.

Hears a song from the stands.

Recognises the tune.

Storms off to social media to complain that’s “our song”.

 

Football fans are a wired breed sometimes.

We re all Wednesday aren't we was definitely ours we'll before the pigs and Leeds nicked it, as a saying or song. 

Not sure who were singing before us though?

I do, we sang it in the 70s when I started supporting.

What truly original songs have we got? 

 

I think the Gassama Tequila song was originally ours. 

I’m reluctant to provoke that notorious temper of yours FG, but Plymouth were singing that for Bali Mumba a year before Gassama signed for us. 
 

The plagiarists though,  have nicked the bounce song from us, so it’s 1-1.

Definitely heard Arsenal fans sing 'Saliba' before we signed Gassama!

I know mate, I was trying to be sarcastic and failed miserably. 

 

After a season of listening to away fans singing it though I can't help but bounce my shoulders to it when they do. 

 

Gassama!

I watched Everton win an evening game at Upton Park many many years ago, certainly the last century, and it was sung then.

 

It's a lovely notion that other clubs' fans are alive to what the supporters of a championship - league one yoyo club sing and copy it, but I suspect not wholly true.

Gassama! 

More like I failed to detect your………I prefer to call it irony FG!

 

Mind you, I’ve become reluctant to use the irony word ever since Alanis Morissette was pilloried for her misuse of it multiple times in her famous song 😀

Fans have be recycling songs since the dawn of football.  I doubt anyone knows where they originate.

That’s how Noel Gallagher learnt his trade, recycling other, more talented people’s music 😀
 

I love your recycled name btw.
