Steven Schumacher hopes Plymouth Argyle fans adopt The Janner Song as club anthem
Plymouth Argyle have introduced a light show before their evening games at Home Park this season in a bid to boost the pre-match anticipation and excitement.
Now, Pilgrims' boss Steven Schumacher has been the driving force behind another change to get the Green Army in good voice before kick-off.
He hopes that playing The Janner Song, made famous by Rick O'Shay and Dave Banana (aka the Sensational Barnet Brothers) at Green Taverners' Fan Fests, over the PA system will add to the atmosphere.
Schumacher came up with the idea after attending the well-received Field of Greens play which was staged in the Green Taverners Suite over four nights last week with coach Kevin Nancekivell.
Field of Greens was a comedy drama based around the events of Argyle's time in administration in 2011.
As a result, The Janner Song was played over the PA at Home Park in the final few seconds before kick-off when Argyle played Portsmouth at Home Park on Tuesday, and went on to win 1-0.
Just when you think we’re clawing ourselves away from parochial nonsense...

i strongly disagree, the atmosphere was already pumped and the away fans contributed to that also.
Agreed, didn't need ramping up for previous Pompey matches at HP and didn't need it on Tuesday either. That dope arsed light show is a complete flop as well, all that's needed is a bit of Sister Sledge or Chic to complete the 1970's primeval techno zeitgeist. And as for that fecking flag....
Apart from that the build up was very enjoyable though.
Bleddy Hell John, you're grumpier than I am.
I quite like the light show, something a bit different.

All these displays drown out the actual real atmosphere of twelve thousand fans singing their hearts out. Well two thousand anyway.

Your right the atmosphere was already bouncing but a significant portion of the crowd joined in the chorus which was the contribution I was referring too.

Having that Janner song is pretty much the same thing.
Maybe its cause I'm not from Devon, I don't get it.

Said for a while the light show is tragic, Just seen the Wolves one looks a lot better.

If you played Dancing Queen, a significant portion would probably join in the chorus! That still wouldn’t make it worthy of a slot in the pre-match build up.

Does Schuey actually know about the village/shyster/arse lickers connections with the "song"?
