Lots of funny 'handball' shouts after the dodgy Stoke support tried to claim one last night, though

Yes the handball did go on fir good couple minutes last night. Which is quite funny on times. Most corners we get we have a little oooh its a corner oooh its a corner chant mainly small section but to me I don't know why I just find it irritating

Was kind of a fun thing in Russell slade days and trollope etc when we couldn't win a corner. But imo now its gone and I hate it every time I hear it

You can guarantee that when you hear "Don't worry, about a thing" that it's already too late as everything has usually gone to shit before that crap gets an airing.

I just wish the fans could sing the whole song and not the same couple lines on repeat. Considering Ajax nicked it from us they do it 100x better than we do

Not at all, we played them in a friendly at Ninian Park and sang it. The Dutch loved it and took it back to Amsterdam with them and made it their club’s anthem.

Actually seems like I was wrongI’ll admit I only scanned the vid and saw a clip of Ninian park and Ali at Cardiff market so assumed it was a Cardiff chant first. Rewatching the full thing it turns out Ali played it over the speakers and the Ajax fans sang along so it seems we did nick it off them.
Regardless, I’d prefer our fans sang the full version. I feel like it shouldn’t be too hard as most people know the words.

Think we had some better songs back then, His name is Jimmy Scoular he's the leader of the blues, We don't carry razors, If I had the wings of an angel. and more.
