The tune is catchy but the words are shit. Why would I care about Wigan or chelsea, , and why would they care about me?

Why would I care about Wigan or chelsea, , and why would they care about me?Yeah but, honestly, who gives a shit.It strikes me that we moan and moan about what the fans sing, but ultimately, they're the ones there, making the noise.I totally understand the point about why we'd give a shit about Wigan or Chelsea etc etc, but this evening, while they were singing it, I was sat on my arse on my sofa. I just watched the highlights and our fans made a right racket, and that's the most important thing. I'll defer to their judgment.It's like when people ask "why are we singing about Blues?". We're singing about Blues because we loathe them, and that's what football supporters do, they sing about their own team, and they also sing about teams they don't like - that is what fans of all teams do, not just us.The next step from moaning about that is "why do we sing that we're by far the greatest team the world has ever seen, when you could make an argument that we're the greatest club, but we'll be happy with finishing 8th this year, which is entirely at odds with the suggestion we're the greatest team the word has ever seen".I honestly don't get why people moan and whine about what is being sung so much. Maybe if they were belting out the Tracy Andrews song, yes, but over something like this?
The words are shit. As I think so I'll say they are. I'll be there Saturday singing but I won't be signing that as it's a crap song. Saying I don't like a song is hardly whining and I'd appreciate you not claiming I am.
Haven't heard our lot sing this yet, what are the words?

Saying I don't like a song is hardly whining and I'd appreciate you not claiming I am. I was not referring to you so much as the whining in general about songs that are sung when I am not there I have no right to whine about.Apologies if it seemed I was PWS. It was more the general point.
