Whilst discussing our very solid performance against the shit on boxing day, myself and a very good friend of mine, stumbled across a slightly awkward topic of conversation...
Every away support that comes to the Brit always sing to us 'You've only got one song' and we both thought it and looked at one another and said..
Do we use Delilah to much!?
Whilst being an avid attendee of the paddock at the Vic - i was too young to ever go into the Boothen End, however what i had was the privilege of being able to see it and hear it, watch it sway and erupt.
And i recall a vast array of songs being fired out of the Boothen End. You do get it in pockets nowadays, on the bus on the way up to the boxing day game - some stokies had a very amusing song about Tevez which had me in stitches.
Another interesting fact pointed out to me by my friend who sits in the South Stand was that the shit fans sing songs about great ex players. I kinda like the idea of 'Oooh Georgie Berry' popping up every now and again, or even 'Pride of the Midlands'. If anything, i feel more attention needs to be payed to 'We'll Be With You'
I do think that the atmosphere we have managed to create and the Brit this season has been second to none - however more variety may be called for..
What are your thoughts?

We've got two: "Delilah" and "We'll be with you". All the others are just generic football chants which several clubs adapt for their own use ("When the reds...", "We are Stoke", etc.).
At least we're not as bad as Derby!

We've got more than that. We get two Delilah's for the price of one to start with.
One from b19 and the one a few seconds later from the rest of the ground.

hahhah that is true 'Laughing Gravy'. And of course the Sidibe song is massive!
I don't know if this has come from recently watching Old Stoke Dvds, but i swear there used to be loads.
There was the one about Birmingham and Barry Fry which could easily be re-appropriated for West Brom...
(Kinda to the tune of heads Shoulders Knees and Toes)
There's a circus in the town (IN THE TOWN)
Tony Mowbray is a clown (IS A CLOWN)
Frank Skinner is shit Cat Deeley is a slag.
Boing Boing West Brom are going down (GOING DOWN)
hahah probably needs a bit of work lol
Hopefully Mama will be back shortly an all!
