PJH - Keep Right on 09:21 - Apr 28 with 603 viewsDinnernotTea

Brilliant to hear your 1962 memories. Sir Alf is my football hero and the Class of '62 are criminally overlooked (look inside Planet Blue, not a mention of them). In reality it's probably the top 3 biggest shocks in English football history. Sir Alf and his men seemed to get overlooked by Sir Bobby and his stars which I think is a shame.

Anyway, you mention the song Keep Right On To The End Of The Road which is obviously Birmingham's anthem now. I was there in 2001 League Cup semi and it sounds incredible when all 4 corners of the ground belt it out.

What I want to know, why the hell did it fade away as our anthem? And do you remember when it stopped being sang?

I don't remember when it lost popularity at Portman Road but it certainly boomed out in 1961/62.

It was Birmingham's song first because it originated with them prior to the 1956 F.A. Cup Final apparently.

'Rousing chorus of Keep Right on' is mentioned in the Supporters Club notes in some of the home programmes from 62'.

I remember my dad belting it out in the Vic Reeves club style at the 75 Leeds Cup game at Filbert St
