I would rather have my testicles nailed to the wooden buffers at Lime street station, than sing this load of old cack.

People from Devon and Copenhagen may think they are indulging in some ancient rite, but we know different.

No mate. On a terrace when younger, it was usually a cue for my middle finger to start making gestures.

Ajax adopted it for a while when I used to watch them, and I used to stand in complete stony silence. At a red mates funeral, it would get the same - 'that's your kopite thing; nothing to do with me treatment'. Cannot abide that kopite dirge.

Under what circumstances would it be acceptable for that song to be played at Goodison.

This is the only version I have EVER sung.
Everton are a club with pride and honour and tradition. We have a motto written in Latin. Our theme tune is an old folk song from this area dating back to the 1800's,
That scum have a song from a Broadway musical from the mid nineties, and use the lyrics from it for their motto. And it is SOOOO original, they share 'their' anthem with about eighty other clubs. It's so the feeble minded can remember it.
I mean, history? Ask any one of them what their Latin motto was before they exchanged it for this commercial dirge. Or for that matter, ask them to name the manager before Shankly. Not a chance.
To my shame, a few years ago at my daughters school sports day, their prankster of a caretaker doing the disco put this on for the final song. I literally had to be restrained. If he had played the theme of both clubs I would not have bothered, but he abused the trust put in him by the Governor to keep an impartial and harmonious ambience, and instead misused the occasion and disregarded all others. Plus, he was a total t... long before this event.
So, no, no real feelings about it either way.

There, I feel a lot better now.

Our team comes out to the theme from a 1960s cop show that we share with Watford (?). Grand old team gets an airing quite a few times and not just on the terraces, on the tannoy, quite a few other clubs use that too. Playing devils advocate like.

Never not even at Wembley 89 respectful silence sufficed. It's been responsible for more damaged jukeboxes ,especially after matches . Hideous dirge.
On the hate thing ,I remember a brick bouncing off me mates head when they tried to ambush us on Walton lane after the Andy King Derby. They lost that one as well.
I did sing the Merseyside chant at Wembley, big V sign to the rest of the country as they all hate us anyway.
