The slow bit is what makes the fast bit or-fuckin-gasmic.

By the way, if anyone doesn't know, and there are A LOT, it's 3 slow verses before it gets fast.

THREE SLOW VERSES.

3.

THREE.


indeed it is. Listen to the man

Yes I never realised it was supposed to be THREE verses, and I've sat in the Paxton since 94!

More people need to know it's three verses slow and the fourth we let rip because when we get it right it's just awesome.

The club should enforce it or print it on the toilet walls or something!!!

Like the song, hate the way we sing it, east upper start speeding up straight away, paxton look clueless, and people in the shelf and park lane are at different points and speed, sounds like a dirge or some cats have been strung up.

We are Tottenham pisses all over it.

I love it WHEN WE GET IT RIGHT but the prob is the same as when we do the team of Robbie Keanes - it's so long that inevitably something brilliant / exciting / dreadful happens and we run out of time. That's probably why it worked so well in CC semi-final - we were able to sing what we liked - no trouble from Arsenal there and plenty of time to finish the chant properly.

I assume it was Southampton's cos they're the Saints and obviously the original song is Saints Go Marching In.

We've been singing it like that regularly, with the fingers an' all, since the turn of the century. It was sung before that but never as much as the last few years.

Southampton couldn't have it back even if they wanted it. ****s.

i remember it being sung all the time but without the fingers back through the late 80's mid 90's then i stopped going every week for a while.
