Several German and Dutch sides sing this song as well. Was it the Celtic or Liverpool fans who sung this song first?

[kathy2457]

[empiricalred]

According to the evidence, Liverpool adopted it in 1963 and Celtic around 1989.

[CELTICYNWA1967]

i kno celtic sang it earlier than that

my dad sang it wen e was a kid and he was born 1956

[empiricalred]

There is no proof that any sports team sang this prior to 1963. According to records, Liverpool and Everton were the first two clubs to sing it. It soon spread farther afield. Nor was it uncommon to hear it on big match days, such as cup finals, by many different teams: Arsenal, Leeds, and even Manchester have sung it on occasion. But Liverpool are most consistent. Celtic are relative latecomers, after Aberdeen and Hibernian.

[CELTICYNWA1967]

no im not saying who sang it first im just saying that celtic sang it earlier than 1989 thats all :)

[empiricalred]

That's likely true. Though Celtic certainly adopted -- adopted it -- around 1989, after playing Liverpool in a series of friendly matches. And even then it wasn't always sung at games. There were long periods (several months at a time) when it wasn't sung at all.

[CELTICYNWA1967]

no celtic sang it against leeds in 1971

[rathdeort2008]

I know you posted a while back, but Celtic sang YNWA in the 60s. Check out 'Celtic fans YNWA 1970' on youtube.

[eoooooon]

1970 is not the 60s.

[rathdeort2008]

I know 1970 is not the 60s but they're hardly likely to have spontaneously sang it in April 1970 out of the blue? Besides it sets the clock way back past the 1989 date mentioned by someone who knows very little and says very much. Take it from it's been sung regularly by Celtic for over 40 years.

[eoooooon]

No, it has not. Stop talking rubbish. Celtic copied it from Liverpool in 1970. And they sung it infrequently during the 1970s and early 1980s. There are countless reliable sources that confirm this.

[rathdeort2008]

So Celtic fans have to 'Prove it' and you just bumble along on your own opinion? Tell me these 'Reliable Sources' I hope they aren't just other folks opinions as that's unlikely to stand up in court eh? Go on real evidence please? Cos I know older Celtic fans, my Dad included, who insist it was sung at the 7-1 Cup final in 1957. Why would they lie about something so trivial? YNWA was played before every Celtic home game in the late 60s into the 70s. Your taking nonsense pal.

There is a mountain of video evidence in support of Liverpool. My user channel provides people with a taste of the information available.

Your Dad is full of anecdotal crap (much like yourself). Now where is your evidence? Put up or shut up.

[rathdeort2008]

You miss the point again my foul mouthed amigo. You are the one claiming Celtic fans never sang YNWA much at all, then it changed to 'Rarely in the 70s' I am telling you that I was there when it was sung weekly in the

70s, and older relatives tell me they sang it in the 60s too. Of course everyone knows Liverpool sang it from 63. You made the boast so prove Celtic never sang it...go on, put up or shut up! By the way My 'Full of crap' Dad died of cancer this year, cheers for your kind remarks.

[ynwa1963]

It's impossible to prove a negative, so kindly stop arguing backwards and falsify my claim by providing evidence. The burden of evidence lies firmly with you, especially as we have longstanding Celtic supporters reporting in The Guardian (The Knowledge, 2002 & 2003) that it was sung infrequently during the 1970s. I am sorry about your father. Nevertheless, if he spoke the words that you attribute to him, then he was talking rubbish.

[rathdeort2008]

How do YOU know? Were you there? Was the Guardian newspaper there? You can't believe everything you read in the press (i.e.'LFC fans pickpocket dead at Hillsborough'...utter lies)I refer it to you. You are so certain you are right based on what? Have you ever actually been to a Scottish game much less one in the 70s? As a kid, going to Celtic games from 1969-70 onwards we sang YNWA EVERY WEEK. It was played on the tannoy along with the 'Grand Old Team' every single home game and still is.

[eoooooon]

I agree we cannot believe everything in the broadsheets, which is why it's important to have multiple sources of evidence. Liverpool supporters can produce anecdotal, written and video evidence. Celtic fans, on the other hand, make assertions of fact without anything solid to back up their claims. Indeed, in this case, we have longstanding Celtic supports who are on record saying YNWA was performed rarely during the 70s at Parkhead. And if what you say is true, these people wouldn't exist.

[jimmyjoefro]

why is this song associated with football? there seem to be about 20 clubs who sing this

[BullyWeeKel]

more like 2

[jimmyjoefro]

i thought there were a lot of other teams outside of the UK who sing it as well

[goloceltic]

great !!!!

celtic 4-ever!
