it's a football terrace song that has been sung for years and years. it's not something exclusive to hatton and his fans.
The British mentality is that if a man does his best, but isn't good quite enough, then he still deserves respect and praise for trying in the first place. That is why they would keep singing even if Hatton lost. Personally, I hate all the singing and chanting at any sporting event, I wish everyone would just shut the **** up and let me watch my sports in peace and quiet
I'm not saying they should boo the guy. I just found it weird that they kept singing after the fight was over and there boy had lost. It was just strange to me.
Its just the way we are, he had a go and lost it happens. I mean is first fight back and he got 58000 fans, that how fanatical we are.:good
