The only time I've heard it away was a friendly game against SV Darmstadt

Sure it will catch on eventually thou...PUSB

heard it at Watford last season, but it requires learning your lines…

What doesn't help the song is the long musical intro - during which most start clapping. Lasts quite a while. Unless you dive straight in with 'You spend your time...' It's just an awkward intro into a mass chant song, without the music imo .

Always sing it at home but I think the idea of singing it away is a bit jarring.

Don't imagine many of us will be living or dying in Darmstadt.

the CBS may as well play la cucaracha through the PA when it starts up, cant hear a word

Wouldn’t work. Singers corner (who make up a significant chunk of away fans) have an appalling understanding of tempo. They sing every song as though it’s a race.

Without the soundtrack it would just be tangled up mess

One or two renditions away from home last season and it was brilliant.

There's a lot of good songs our home and away support haven't been singing this year. Many of the older songs aren't getting much of a run out.

It worked so well at Darmstadt.

I went to Darmstadt . It was a really nice place. I walked back after match and has some really nice areas. Got soaked though with after match rain.

At times at home they somehow get out of time even with a backing track!
