Yeah ban em and everyone will start singing again.
Ban Westie too as it's his fault the atmosphere has been ruined.
How old are you? Do you not remember the late 80s or the 90s when he would never stop singing, blowing his out of tune trumpet, ringing that bell?
When others gave up he and his little crew got louder.

It pisses me off when younger ones think the passionate atmosphere started with the drum so you are right there phil. Facebook should be called Ar$ebook.

Resurrecting this old chestnut then

Must be a Scully Silent South Stand led one



Looks way out of date btw as reading the wording it seems to be referring to about 6 seasons ago when Westy & Co were indeed exiled to what became known as the Punch & Judy Hut in the corner of the Milton End.

What new songs btw ? .

I never hear any even when there is an opportunity for those who claim to want to start them and most of the younger element don't know the words of old ones that aren't sung anymore.

I seem to recall a couple of seasons ago Micah Hall and Dan Brett tried organizing a competition for those would be lyricists to come up with original words. Most examples ran to 3 verses with no chance of fans joining in

They then had a get together at the Victory Lounge for 'Choir Practice@ all 12 of them . It wasn't repeated such was the demand.

Anyway most fans of clubs who sing use the same songs with slightly different words i.e Red Army G
