There is no connection whatsoever, it's total crap will never be sung by the crowd

Did you not actually watch the video of the players who won promotion singing it in the dressing room?

Yes I did , it's efing rubbish, what's more I can play the violin a dam site better than this rubbish being belted out

Bet you can’t. Bring the violin on Saturday and play it to prove us wrong

He also said the prayer group is up to about 12 now

Monks said 2 more joined today

Has God had anything to say yet about Brother Moncur running around in his bra and pants at Gillingham in a paganistic celebration of a non godly nature?

Good little song with a good beat but I doubt the good people of Leyton will be able to remember the words

Its organic. The players were singing it. There’s a connection to a historic moment in Orient history.

I’m fully behind it.

Come on it’s infectious. The club are going to play this just before the start on Saturday. The words are simple and the crowd should sing along with the team.

It's not infectious, it's total crap, the crowd won't sing along to it, the words are not simple. Where on this planet do you think there is any connection between a song written in the deep south of America to a football club set in Britain in northern Europe that has no cultural connection to the deep south of America, it won't catch on, It's total crap RUBBISH

What, like Swing Low Sweet Chariot? A slave song from the Deep South seems to have caught on with a National Rugby Union team based in Britain in Northern Europe, with no cultural connections. Apart from England’s role in the slave trade obviously.

Having heard it more than once, I can confirm it’s utter sh*t.

Embrace it -oh lord George Moncor -someone’s scoring my lord George Moncur -
Wagon wheel has plenty of wheels after today
Some of you need to Liven up we’ve just won the league you negative cnuts

We done well in the slave trade played for both teams and came out winners.
That allows us to nick it from the deep south, Swing low Sweet Chariot easy to remember tune and words nice and simple you can sing along after just one hearing don't even need a record playing, belt it out at top of your voice
