Quote redpalace91 at 18 Feb 2014 10.29pm Every club seems to sing the same songs nowadays. Blackpool stole 'glad all over' - obviously they were too lazy to come up with their own song. That's the thing though, always been like that hasn't it? The 'here's to you' song is quality but yeah, can't claim that. Same with 99% of other football songs. The HF have done well with ones like 'my father said to me' though. I might be missing something or not heard where it's from though. But otherwise its a Palace original? Anyway, I get that some Palace don't like the self congratulating malarkey but for me, we've got to keep making a big deal out of the support. Being a Palace fan is a different experience from a few years ago and a lot of that is down to the atmosphere among the fans, which is so much better than at the likes of Man City, Arsenal, Spurs etc. I've seen loads of fans of other clubs saying it. Yeah alright, no point saying "we're great", but at the same time it should be seen as important to keep it going. Cos the longer we are in the Premier League, the more likely we will lose atmosphere and follow the likes of Spurs (who used to be known for an electric atmosphere - not any more).

Yeah and I agree and I never said we don't sing the same songs as other clubs and never said we should claim the song but like you said it's important to keep the support going. As shocking as this may sound as fantastic as out support has been this season, I still think we were louder home and away last season, peterbrough away had to be one of best atmospheres and that little stand behind the goal. Id hate for us to lose out atmosphere because at the start this season it's all we had and it's what I've always loved about this club the most. You'll never see me stop singing though, no matter what others decide to do around me - can't remember the time I left a match with anything but no voice We're the Arthur over ere!

Why would anyone be annoyed that we are loud and proud of it lol? Nonsense is a bit harsh - its based on peoples opinions, kind of the concept of a message board - if you don't like people praising our support and being proud of it then don't do it, I'm sure its not gonna effect you too badly if other Palace fans to decide to talk about how food our support is. Know one has become arrogant - if your the best team in the league and its clear for everyone to see, you would talk about how you are the best team in the world and its clear for everyone to see. Same goes for if you are the best fans in the league and its clear for everyone to see - which in my opinion is more important than anything else. In more than one occasion last season we were a 12th man and praising and acknowledging it does not make you arrogant or "not classy" lol thats just stupid. I know its off topic but having spoke to people at Selhurst on a Saturday but this season especially, more and more people have become whiny on the site and always want to disagree with everything people say just for the sake of it. That, I think, is more boring than someone who says we have the best fans in the league. We're the Arthur over ere!

They have, sing it about Vincent Company - in fact belgium even nicked it off them and were singing it in their world cup qualifiers.

Many fans have Infact... heard it in the bundesliga every other week for the past few seasons.

We cant claim the tune to that one im afraid... simon and garfunkel probably have copyright on that.

That's all

Or, as I've already explained, I heard them singing it alot more and alot louder since we went to the Etihad.

Yes, and as ive already explained maybe youve just heard them singing it more. Watch all 90 mins of every Man City games do you listening to the fans? The parts you watch they may just not have been singing it?

It's not the point I'm making at all. I fully appreciate they may have had it as a song they used for 20+ years, but us going down there has clearly inspired them to get it properly going at games, I never heard then sing it on motd until after we went there this season so we clearly have made an impact, which is brilliant to see. That's all Sorry but thats just nonsense, they way they sing there songs has nothing to do with us. And as someone else has pointed out all this "arent we the best fans" self promotion is getting a bit boring now. By all means lets sing and get behind team as we do well... but lets not become arrogant and over the top about it. Let's have a bit more class than that please. Why would anyone be annoyed that we are loud and proud of it lol? Nonsense is a bit harsh - its based on peoples opinions, kind of the concept of a message board - if you don't like people praising our support and being proud of it then don't do it, I'm sure its not gonna effect you too badly if other Palace fans to decide to talk about how food our support is. Know one has become arrogant - if your the best team in the league and its clear for everyone to see, you would talk about how you are the best team in the world and its clear for everyone to see. Same goes for if you are the best fans in the league and its clear for everyone to see - which in my opinion is more important than anything else. In more than one occasion last season we were a 12th man and praising and acknowledging it does not make you arrogant or "not classy" lol thats just stupid. I know its off topic but having spoke to people at Selhurst on a Saturday but this season especially, more and more people have become whiny on the site and always want to disagree with everything people say just for the sake of it. That, I think, is more boring than someone who says we have the best fans in the league. What I think is annoying people is the amount that everyone keeps going on about our fans. Yes without doubt we are one of the best around but its almost like there are a load of people going to games that havent been before/for years.............. Edited by akiisalegend (19 Feb 2014 11.06am) So your way to back your argument of people praising our fans being boring is by starting the whole "I'm a better palace fan then you" s***. Talk about contradiction Dont think I ever mentioned anything about better fans than other people anywhere on the holmesdale let alone this thread? Just stated that there are more people going to games this year so more people are going on about it so is getting annoying to some people. Perfectly reasoned point I thought with no contradiction and without anything to do with whether fans are better than others. Sorry misred the order of wording on your above post. Ignore the part about my argument Edited by akiisalegend (19 Feb 2014 11.13am)
