I get that but why not do both songs?
We are not here to pander entirely to the 'mental' whims and sometimes overly complicated tunes of the fanatics, love 'em as I do.
What about something the whole ground (granted, bar the Main Stand librarians) can sing?

Much to my frustration (and yours?) our most simple songs are the ones sung by more fans around the stadium than the more intricate ones. (Pretty sure they won't be many under 12s or over 40s singing the those)

Like I say, why not have both?

The bloke is French after all and it's high time we had a decent response to Manure's Cantona cr@p.

For the record, the away fans cannot hear the Fanatics singing. It's only when everyone else joins in that they have to take notice.



Thats because the acoustics in the Homesdale are so bad.
If we had built a single tier stand like the one at Tottenham it would be a different story. In the Arthur, as soon as we lose that bloody gantry, the noise will pour out, but in the meantime at least the away fans hear us.

Why over think it. Did AJ ever wear a "magic hat"?

He wore a slippery party hat.

I've got Eddie the Eagle packed his bags and said goodbye to the Celtic, but I'm struggling with off he went with a somethingy something.

Off he went to the Premier League, Selhurst Park.

that's too good, actually if you know 'Milord' by Edith Piaf and sing 'Odsonne Edouard' to it, minding to restart a line with Edouard if the previous one has finished Odsonne, it actually works quite well.

Fair enough - not 100% sure I like it. I didn't like my suggestion either.

I was thinking - once he scores some goals we can adore/Edouard him. Otherwise, he can whistle to himself.

Are we sure we wanna be Edouard ?

[Link]

No doubt all a terrible understanding.

I speak good French, but to protect this website am not translating the story (in case I make any material error) but it is a troubling tale.

I'm sure motivated forum members will get the gist of the article if they want to...

As you all know the Ultras lead on all songs. Whatever they sing we all follow. Period. Just hope it’s punchy and wild cos if we sing it every time he scores we’re gonna sing it a lot.

He wasn't that young. It was pretty terrible behaviour...more than being a young scamp. He probably needs to address it in a grown up way.

2017, he shot someone with an air soft gun. Was ordered to pay 6000. The victim appealed the sentence which has now been raised to 20 something grand. Not really seeing how we are mentioned so much, absolutely nothing to do with us. Even the appeal is from April. The original charge from 2017. I make him, something like 19/20 at that time. Totally stupid but not exactly unheard of for young men. A lot of it is sour grapes over how much he earns. Suggests he gets 80k a week here. Presumably a French socialist newspaper. Fair enough - it's all over. I doubt he'll do it again - although the sentence is still lenient in my opinion. 30 days jail seems more appropriate for shooting someone from a car window. He better not try that in Croydon - as he won't be alive long enough to get arrested if he starts pointing replica guns from a car, when you consider it.
This is my rough translation and I don't speak French. Don't even have the O level. So please disregard everything I just posted. And autocorrect is doing my head in, have to edit every bloody post.

Yes, it is a disturbing story and, assuming it's true, portrays a worrying aspect of his behaviour. It was 4 years ago, but nevertheless we have to hope he has now seen the error of his ways.

Did we know about this before we signed him I wonder?

 

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
