"Stand up if you're top of the league" 20:00 - Apr 9 with 3873 viewsDubtractor

Was I the only person in Portman Road not having that?

Sure, celebrate being top if we were there at the end of the game, but midway through the game when other results were hugely unlikely to both stay that way? Not for me.

I loved the atmosphere on Saturday though, felt like a real buzz around the place in the second half, and I appreciate that chant was part of it, but much like I wasn't one getting too stressed when we had our iffy run, I'm not gonna be chanting 'top of the league' on the basis of a 5 minute spell mid game!

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.

I agree with you.

I was told to just enjoy it, so I guess I'm miserable haha

Hell yes.

No, I did have a smile on my face, but stayed sitting!

Might be the only 5 minute spell in the next decade we can sing that so why not fill your boots?

We could get double promotions and not be top at any point to put some perspective on that.

I said to my Dad, they're bound to score. But still stood yup, sung and enjoyed it for the brief time.

I found myself at Notts County with my Dad sat in front of a Morcambe season tickets holder (yeah I know ) and I did find myself singing it in my head !

Enjoy it

Most fans seem to stand up regardless of where we are in the League.

I fully appreciate that my annoyance at this makes me even more miserable and grumpy than you! You're welcome!

Chill. It has so rarely happened in the last twenty years or so that I think we're allowed to enjoy the moment whilst it happens. As you rightly allude to, it could be a fleeting moment.

Indeed. Never felt like we would be there at the end of the day.

Still, I liked it got everyone up and singing at least.

It was pretty dead on Saturday to be honest.

Friday on the other hand was a bit more lively…

Ha. I refuse to sing that whilst we are in division 3!

Just for the avoidance of doubt, my OP is slightly tongue in cheek. Only slightly though.

I had no real issue with it. It's been such a long time since we've had anything to celebrate and given what an incredible run it's taken for us to briefly get back to the top, I can understand the fans being a bit overexuberant.

Watching it, it looked great. Can only see it as a confidence boost for the players. Makes more sense singing it at this stage of the season than after a handful of games.

One of my most shameful moments....started off thinking who the hell gets a phone signal in here and anyway Plymouth always get a late goal and then just gave in to the herd and wanting to see! BAAAA!!

Edit... and in the Cobbold too....I nearly spilled my flask.

I was thinking the chant was slightly tongue in cheek. That's how I was taking it anyway - enjoy the moment, have some fun with it, but not for one minute expecting it to stay like that.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.
