1) Eagles - Sung to the tune of Amazing Grace?
2) Drink Drink Where ever we may be
We are the drunk and disorderly
This used to be sung by a few people at the back of the old Holmesdale

Eagles to amazing Grace is still sung in the Upper Tier at alot of games.
Tenous link time: I once saw a programme about a reformed drugged addict woman who was illiterate and had spent time in jail (US)for murder.
She had found god and to sing his praises she used to sing Amazing grace to the tune of house of the rising sun by the animals on the guitar, the former being the only hymn she knew and the latter being the only song she knew on the Guitar

What about 'Hello Hello we are the Palace boys, and if you are a Brighton fan surrender or you'll die'? This used to be sung on the old terrace.

We did sing Hello, hello we are the Palace boys at Norwich.
The 'Chelsea Wannabees' started to sing Chelsea's, The Rule, The Rule, we are the Palace and we are the best we are the Palace so f**k all the rest....etc.
Anyone else heard any new songs recently?

LP how are a lot of our songs nicked off Chelsea? Anyhow..Blue Flag was nicked from Man U, "we are the Chelsea" has been sung by various clubs like Leeds for years.

And their celery song was knicked off of Bournmouth or some south coast club like that. I remember reading their fans moaning about it in a paper or a fanzine.
Stick the blue flag up your a*se.

How about singing "I'm Palace til I (they) die, I'm Palace til I die, I know I am, I'm sure I am, I'm Palace till I die"
Lots of other clubs fans sing it, and it's somehow so apt at the present time.

My old man said be a Brighton fan
I said F**k off, bol**cks you're a C**T.
We took the north bank in half a minute,
we took the shed with the Chelsea in it.
We hammered the hammers...etc etc

for some reason that one grates with me. i sing it sometimes, and of course it's true, but i think it should be taken for granted that i'm palace til i die without need for reaffirmation.
'english til i die' is even worse in that respect, as if i'm gonna wake up a bulgarian one day. :confused:

it's an old Irish drinking song called 'the Wild Rover' and was first sung by Aston Villa fans in the late 70's.
