Wasn't the Bontcho one an original at the time? Or did we copy that as well.

I never heard any other club use that at time, although it's not heavily used by clubs some 25 years later.

'Ipswich' song repeatedly to the tune of Amazing Grace may well have been ours from the outset.

We sing it every game in S6, but it’s over by the time it gets going.

It doesn’t really lend itself well for another verse and I don’t think I’ve ever heard it sung more than once through, but now I think about it, I suppose you could go straight into it again but start it off slowly..?

“But everybody calls me Ted... Myyyyy naaaame iiiiiiiis...”

Might try that at the next game to see if we can squeeze a few verses out of it.

Have we ever played the ITFC version of Blitzkrieg Bop? Would get the place rocking! Although probably too fast to sing en masse.

How many other clubs sing about 1962 and Sir Bobby etc?

The tune might be the same.... but the words aren't.

Exactly, other clubs singing 'We support the Ipswich' would just sound daft.

Bontcho was definitely an original - can remember its debut away at Leeds in a 0-1 defeat around this time of year in 1993.

I always sung Hegan is better than Eusebio but quite a while ago someone on here said that it wasn't Hegan-not sure they said it was Crawford either though.
That goes back to 1967/68 or thereabouts.

There’s that god awful Edward Ebeneezer that gets trotted out before every home game. I can’t imagine that would have been copied.
