Ian Nannestad has carried out research to show that I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles was sung at the Vetch Field in the early 1920s. Nannestad quotes from The Sporting News (8th January, 1921) that the Swansea crowd sung the song before a FA Cup tie against Bury. "Then came the ever popular Bubbles, and the crowd simply yelled. The spectators on the main bank took their cue from the Mumbles end, and there was one tremendous sway, together with the singing, on the part of about 25,000."
Northcutt speculates that the West Ham crowd might have developed this tradition after hearing the Welsh fans singing this song in the FA cup game played against Swansea in 1921. :thumbup:

they fly so high, they reach the sky, then like west ham they fade and die.
bristols always running
swindons running too
but when the grange ends running
its running after YOU

'speculates'

That's the key word there. Anyone can speculate.

As indeed West Ham speculate themselves where it came from! One things for sure. They didn't sing it before the FA cup game in 1921! :thumbright:
