[davek]

You said you didn’t like it ?

Oh, how droll.

That's the end of the ceasefire I had with you. Get your tin hat back on...

 

[davek]

Erm...

You think football club anthems are unimportant too?

YOU'RE POSTING ON A FOOTBALL FORUM NAMED AFTER ONE.

Yeh and lots of us also used to post on a football forum called blue kipper mate.

 

[davek]

Those with the right answer so far...

Are you saying the owner of this forum took an inconsequential decision to name his forum Grand Old Team?

I'm saying the name of an Everton forum does not matter. Like the anthems chosen in the ground do not matter. We can sing any of them.

This is the most Dave of things to fume over.

GOT is a better song than the others, I'd pick it, but I also do not give a crap if it isn't.

Personally, I prefer the simpler Everton, Everton, Everton, Everton, Everton, Everto......n, chant. Direct, straight to the point, memorable lyrics, no BS.

I was brought up on just that. It fades out very quickly except for a few stragglers trying to keep it going. Which suited me fine as i'm a bit lazy.

Did you complain about the name blue kipper then?

Why on earth would I do that?

I think you're confused here. Again.

But you said the name of an Everton forum matters? It's not a song, why didn't you complain.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

Absolutely not. I'm sorry but GOT is an uninspiring dirge. It's sums everything wrong with the club. Even our song we have to talk about those scumbags over the park. We don't need to be talking about them in the clubs anthem. A fan favourite that we can always go back to? Definitely, 100%. I love the GOT chant, but no way should it be the clubs official anthem. Collectively singing spirit of the blues has been one of the few good things to happen in recent years. I'm sorry if that offendeds the boring old bellends that never sing at all (or even go the match in most cases) but you'll just have to live with it lads.

I'm not complaining about any forum name.

Blue Kipper was a well thought out name and so is Grand Old team.
