The Billy Boys Poll

[Sket 13,610]

Up to our knees in postage fees?? Mega lolz.

I joke, I joke.

[Sket 13,610]

Has to be the original or nothing.

[themoodybloo 77]

3 for me as no one could take offence to that.

[BallycastleBear 3]

The original. Nothing else

[ManchestGer 347]

16 for me

[Rfc#1. 1,877]

For me. Its the original or nothing.

[jaywalker 377]

Cant be arsed readng through this to see how many of the "original or nothing" posts there are.

I suspect a few of the uber proddy fans are spouting this. Most people agree the original isnt an option, so therefore our best stadium rousing chant will be condemned to history. I bellowed this with the best of them in my time, would love to see it back, well it still can be just by altering one line that most of us didnt really think about.. Get it changed, get it back.

[Rfc#1. 1,877]

Different words and it ain't the Billy Boys. Sure it might sound similar and the new wee chorus may fit in. Maybe it could be renamed. "Billy boys pc version. Or "The non-offensive Billy Boys.

Hello hello we are the non offensive billy boys.

Ill just sing the original under cover of the new pc one.

[Misteral 2,932]

I like a few but number 11 makes it a classic new version

[rangersfc77 170]

7, 11, 17 are all great

[islandblue 366]

Be great to agree something and get our song back

[jamess 3,422]

Any version with minimal changes just to get it back.

[Thornliebanktrueblue 667]

Number 3 was the original... I have it on old LPs.

The offensive version was an amendment to the original words to wind them up

in the same way the original sash didnt have FTP in it..

so Number 3 all the way... i can sing it with my young son!!

3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3

11) Hullo, Hullo, we are the Billy boys

We’ll sing The Sash and Derry’s Walls

Surrender or you’ll die

For we are the Bridgeton Derry boys

thats my VOTE.....

Any version of TBB we sing will always have some fans singing the words which are deemed offensive. I would willingly sing any version because nothing gets Ibrox bouncing like TBB. No. 3 and 11 seemed the best of the choices. I never had access to the forum when suggestions were being submitted or my suggestion would have been,

Hello Hello we are the Billy Boys

Hello Hello you'll know us by our noise

We are the Glasgow Rangers

We're Rangers till we die

For we are the Bridgeton Derry Boys

Whatever version we sing let us sing loud and proud because WATP.

[RikkiMiller 87]

Whatever happened to TBB committee that were looking into getting the club to promote bring the song back in a new format?

Did this actually happen, or am I dreaming all up?

[Copland bear 7,966]

Never mind all this changing one line shite, One word and one word only needs changed.

Changing that one word keeps it as close as legally possible and would get it right up our enemys.

Now this needs sorted.

Would love to hear it in the semi final as the teams walked out the tunnel.

Just one word guys so come on.

No, they had a meeting with focus and nothing came of it.

They should have been telling focus that the one word was getting changed and if anyone tried to block it, then we as fans have the funds to drag them through every court in the land.

They would soon back off, believe me as they would not have a leg to stand on,

If people sing the original version? Then they would need to prove this, and anyone doing so should just put there hand over their mouths because of video evidence.

It' s time our supporters trusts took focus on instead of wanting to pay certain peoples legal costs.

how many days left to vote?

number 11 is winning, i suggest RM produces a great case for the new lyrics and hands it to Rangers.

after all they need supporters on side...

that's a good shout

[jaywalker 377]

Do you honestly see the management of the club suggesting we should sing about rebel scum or singing the sash or Derrys walls.

It aint going to happen, is it? FFS think it through.

[.Williamson. 82,224]

I prefer when we don't sing it. It pushes good Catholic people away from supporting our club

[CrackFox 245]

don`t think you can really have a version with `up to our knees in (anything) as the temptation to sing the original words would be too strong,for me anyway.

I went for 16 with small correction We sing rather than We`ll sing.16 keeps some tradition in the song which I like.
