Fans of Glasgow Celtic FC have adopted the song, and Pete St John has performed it for them at Parkhead. Other fans who sing it include those of the Irish national soccer team, GAA teams and the Ireland, Munster and London Irish rugby union teams.

Glasgow Rangers fans have their own version - Low lie the fields of Ballynafeigh. Liverpool fans sing;
All round the fields of Anfield Road,
Where once we watched the king Kenny play - and could he play,
We had Heighway on the wing,
We had dreams and songs to sing,
Of the glory round the fields of Anfield Road.

It's become a folk song!
