I see what you're both saying, but football songs don't actually have to match up exactly to the songs they are based on. I'd prefer the 'proper' version to be sung, but if it makes it easier for it to catch on as a chant with non-1882ers then it might be better just to repeat the same line over and over. Plus then you don't have different people thinking we're at different points in the song and singing different things over one another.

I WANT IT EXACT OR I'M NOT PLAYING.
 
I know it doesn't have to match up exactly but I think the slight variety that the original song gives would make it a song that's easier to sing for longer.

It's not like AVB's Blue & White Army (Yids), where you there are three bits of the chant and people keep switching between them (eventually just shouting Yids) - it's just one line that everyone can sing over and over. Has potential but the reason the Eriksen song is quality is that it's a full chorus that you can get into.
 
Just re-watched the highlights, nearly forgot about the hull fans shouting handball everytime we passed the ball. In fact they only stopped shouting it when we passed the ball.......................into their goal. :baletroll:
