I’m gobsmacked by the attitude that we are somehow awful fans for enjoying the football and the moment. If we‘re top at that time then let’s celebrate the fact. I really can assure you singing that song has ZERO impact on what Plymouth and their opponents do. It’s not a cocky attitude in the slightest. Oddly, we can sing “We’re on our way, we’re on our way” since Feb and no one bats an eyelid. Surely that’s more pretentious than singing about being top??? |  |

It's ok singing "the Town are gonna win the fecking league" in the 'KM knows exactly what to do' song, but when we're actually top, even if only briefly, we're not allowed to say a word?! Nah, feck it. Enjoy the ride I say. |  |

But it’s just jinxing it all the time now and hasn’t really contributed to the atmosphere. Wait until FT, because we aren’t technically top of the league until the games have finished. |  |

You're a reasonably intelligent fella, Sitters. You KNOW there's no such thing as jinxing. |  |

I am not a… on 09:30 - Apr 19 with 2008 views | dirtyboy | You're none of those, but just feels like every time we sing that particular song, it immediately bites us in the backside. I can't risk it. I can't risk not eating wine gums at half time. I can't risk not eating a hotdog from the stand outside the NS before the game. Eurgh... I'm not superstitious....am I? Eugh, s**t, I am aren't I?! ffs. Sorry. |  | |  |

You’re free to have your rituals and support the team how you want! I just don’t want to be abused for enjoying the best football I’ve ever seen my team play!! |  |

WTAF?! You think the players notice, listen to chants and then get upset when they find out other scores have changed?! Good old nonsense Frimmers is back! You've been a bit sensible lately and it didn't feel right! |  |

Where have I said I worship it?!??!?!? It's just there. And I sometimes use it to navigate my way home. Hence my user name, from the Carter USM song that goes "I was walking towards the flashing smile of the Crystal Palace tower". There's no jinxing or superstition involved! |  |

Anyone with half a brain knows that if it's being sung during a game but not after then it probably didn't stay that way. I doubt a single player goes off thinking we're top due to crowd chants. |  |

Such an aggressive poster. Cheer up. We're going up |  |

I am not a… on 11:19 - Apr 19 with 1355 views | J2BLUE | Completely agree. Do people think Plymouth fans aren't singing this when they go ahead? Do they have fans on their site saying they have jinxed things if we temporarily go top in the next game? Enjoy every second. As long as it's good-natured stuff, sing whatever the hell you want and ignore people. [Post edited 19 Apr 2023 11:19]
