Crabbycanary3 994 Posted January 21, 2019 I know, I know, one game at a time and all that, but this may need a couple of weeks for some bright spark to work on this; Can you people come up with a verse (or two) to go with this tune, so it can be sung on the day?

splendidrush 699 Posted January 21, 2019 I've always felt the best songs are those with few words and plenty of repeats. Not a lyricist myself but.... (you knew there'd be a but) We're better than you We're better than you oo oo. We're Norwich City We're better than you. Simple, to the point and can be used at all games against any opponent. Ticks all the boxes. Maybe a take on the seventies hit 'When will I see you again ' just for the Binners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it would be best to have Down Town played around 15 minutes before the game - and followed by this so the binners don't feel left out volume ! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Six finger jokes and comments about sisters, you know, all the old classics. Shows the difference between us that we aren't so concerned 3 games out, yet they, with a relegation scrap on their hands are addicted.... mind you, it could be the last Derby for some time.

spencer 1970 207 Posted January 22, 2019 https://www.11v11.com/teams/norwich-city/tab/opposingTeams/opposition/Ipswich Town/ The thing I'm most gutted about is even if we beat them they still have a better head to head than us.

Jim Smith 2,314 Posted January 24, 2019 We had a good version of Down Town a few years ago. Would be great if the DJ could be persuaded to play it over the tannoy if we beat them! In the meantime how about a little twist on one of our existing favourites: 17 years in the championship Now Lambert's taking you out of it Your history doesn;t matter a bit Cos your Ipswich Town and your f***** sh** 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,314 Posted January 24, 2019 First two lines could be improved but..... When you can;t win and get your hats from the bin then you can always go, Down Town When you sack Mick and then replace him with p***ks then are bound to go, Down Town Think of Portman Road with 20,000 empty seats Lambert's off to Scotland while poor Evans starts to bleat "No-ones singing the blues" And the Barclay will sing with glee As the Binmen go down to old division 3 So go Down Town, things will be great when your Down Town, you'll find your place for sure Down Town, Fleetwood are waiting for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're going up the league, we're going up the league, Your're going down down down down down the league, We're going up the league, we're going up the league, You're going down and you'll be in League 1 next year or We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when But I know we''ll meet again one sunny day, Keep smiling through, just like you always do As you and Lambert go down to League 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
