Town are scoring.
All around us,
Ipswich playing, having fun,
It’s the season,
Back to back promotions,
Merry Christmas,
Norwich Scum.

Seems to be a question around the 1st line, is it:

"Town are scoring"

or is it

"The Barclays falling"

?

Whatever the first line is or isn't, I want to hear 28,000 Ipswich fans singing this at Portman road Saturday

It is:-

The Barclays falling
All around them...

Which imho is better and makes more sense given the song is merry Christmas Norwich scum, i.e. aimed at them

No, no, no… doesn’t scan for starters!

Definitely the “Town are scoring” line, miles better.

Lyrics are ... "Barclay's falling ... " much better, highlights the overdue collapse of Norwich City Football Club which we should unconditionally celebrate.

"Ipswich scoring all around us" is a bit meh and happy clappy ....

Regarding Singin' The Blues if we must have that played over the tannoy can we please revert back to the original lyrics "when Ipswich win and Norwich lose" ....

The watered down "when others lose" is so bland and meaningless and makes us sound rather dull and petty.

This is definitely better than the Barclay's falling first line.

I know they blast out 'others lose' over the tannoy, but they kind of have to. No one sings that though. Everyone sings 'and Norwich lose'.

I absolutely defer to the people with the IP here, namely Blue Action, but I'd like to add another potential option here:

Delia's snoring,
In the library,
Ipswich playing,
Having fun,
It's the season,
Back to back promotions,
Merry Christmas,
Norwich scum.

While the Blue Action original does have one syllable too many, and there will be quite a few who don't know what The Barclay is (I thought it was rhyming slang until a couple of months ago), I do appreciate that it honours the 'all around...' part of Mr Stevens' original.

Scans better and is more inclusive (for want of a better word)) and positive to boot.
