In 1985 I'm sure they had a parade of past players to celebrate the match being the 50th final to be played at Wembley, so they sidelined the full community singing to make way for it. Jim Mills led 'Abide With Me', I do know that.
I'm pretty sure Vince Hill led it in 1989 and a year or two before or after that.
