Ok I'm biased, but in my 51 years of supporting palace, Glad all over still makes me feel so good when palace come on to the pitch.
But recently I have noticed how many guys I work with, who support other teams, think it's so good. Many ask me who it was by as many weren't even born when it came out.
So is there any other 'pitch entry' songs used by other clubs that come near to being so uplifting?

Been racking my remaining brain cells and I think we win this hands down . Also the theme from The Long Good Friday needs a mention, not too sure about the Holly Johnson tune, what was that all about ?
A Spurs fan I know said that use to come out to My Name is McNamara I'm the Leader of the Band, not sure if he's winding me up ! And of course !its well known that Arsenal come out to Simon &Garfunkels The Sound Of Silence ,

Still behind "You'll never walk alone" especially when sung by 50000 Scousers.

However it's a good second as far as the Premier League
is concerned. Is Brighton's tune YMCA??

this reminds me when Neighbours first came out I seemed to be one of only a handful of people who didn't like it - Glad all over is a sh*t song - Bubbles beats it by miles, 'We Love You' as a chant is top draw, glad all over is bouncy and catchy and boisterous but its lyrics are lamentably cheesy - I do love it though, but mainly out of duty

No its "Sussex By The Sea" - Unknown band (written by William Ward-Higgs, 1907)

Can't understand you lot. Why are you so gushing about a song that's 50 years old?

Had anybody sang a 50 year old song when I started attending matches in 1969, they would have been laughed out of town.

Us oldies have heard it too many thousands of times, I for one am bloody sick of it.

We're in the 21st century now.
Get modern.

I agree, I want a bit of Little Mix.

Their songs are bollocks though.

1969 and you call yourself an oldie - not in my book - after 60 years of suffering maybe and GAO is in the club DNA and didn't you sing Daisy in the Holmesdale?
