This is what happens when the support over the last 20-years have become terrified of some bad press in the media and from folk who hate our very existence anyway.
The fear-factor, for reasons unknown to me, catches on and a culture develops off the back of it where everyone is either frightened to sing or just think it's not worth the hassle.
This is just my view here, but the more newer, PC, friendlier songs are ok in small doses and when part of a songbook that includes new, old and Loyalist as a big mixture but when it's just mostly newer songs the intimidation factor and gusto just isn't there.
People need to realise that the SNP, Michael Stewart, the media etc - we could sing 3 blind mice and they'd be outraged and get pressure groups for blind folk involved.
Obviously there's some things and some add-on's we can't sing whether we like it or not but there's loads we can that get's it right up the haters but people don't want the negativity - the negativity that we get regardless. We need to realise that.
