PJH - Keep Right on 09:21 - Apr 28 with 603 views | DinnernotTea | 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? | |
