Brian,
I'm fully with you on the crap that's blared out from the tannoys on the terraces, but don't underestimate the cop, the true fans. They even try to outsing the tannoys. Here at Hull City we have the god awful 'Tiger, tiger' poem blared out at us by some demented idiot with an overdramatic slur. BUT all of this goes on only before the match and in the interval. The match itself is left to the lads on the terraces. We've even had the temerity from some upstart wanting to usurp the cop distributing the words of their songs. Totally ignored of course. I know one or two prem teams have commissioned a fan or two to provide new chants, but the vast majority come from the lads who sing 'em and make 'em up on the spot, largely to the existing tunes. They're certainly not on the decrease, not in my experience, and long may that continue.

And it's Hull City, Hull City it is,
The finest team the world has ever seen.

One Brian Peters, there's only one Brian Peters,
One Brian Peters, ther's only one Brian Peters.
