Can't wait to hear this at Stoke.

We are Sheff United, they call us the Blades
We got Billy Sharp, he’s a legend at the Lane
Basham and O’Connell overlapping down the wing,
Duffy Fleck and Norwood with his fucking ping

ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ

Chris Wilder is our gaffer, he leads us all the way
Playing proper football, the Sheff United way

ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ

He stuck pink paper on the wall
They called us journeymen
Now we’re going on a journey, to the fucking Prem

ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ

I think it’s just “he stuck that paper on the walls”
The walls were pink, the paper was white

 

[Foxy]

ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ......

 

[AdamSufc1997]

What a lad, think he deleted a tweet about him and O'Connell being brentford rejects

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

I think it’s just “he stuck paper on the walls”

You may be right there, makes more sense but I can’t stop hearing pink too

[DI36O]

Love this! LOVE IT!

 

[sitwell]

Anyone know the lyrics, or tune come to that??

Egan struggled and he made it up
Just do the ole ole ole bit

Sounds about reyt. So proud of my Irish roots tonight. When he said it was a Liverpool song I thought it'd be something to the "Fields of Athenry" (The fields of Anfield Road), but this is the bollocks! Get it learnt Blades. For the Stoke game and the open top bus.

 

[Stretch]

That is brilliant!!!

You can tell this bloke comes from sporting stock, his Dad was an absolute titan in Gaelic Football and I recall Wilder referring to John as 'a Warrior' on many occasions. He just exudes energy, in a scary but also friendly kind of way.

 

[JohnDenver]

We’re a lucky lot just now. Imagine the multimillion pound leeches at our neighbour’s mob having this unity? Nope, me neither...

Doubt they could make it through a promotion party without Forestieri lamping someone

 

[harrierjames]

Technicalities and all that... but are the lyrics not
"He stuck *that* paper on the wall..."?

Aye, I can’t edit my post now and don’t fancy posting it for the third time I don’t think I’m the only one who heard pink tho as that’s now doing the rounds on twitter, defo the/that paper listening to it again

 

[bromtom]

Think Napoli did it before Liverpool mind.

 

[Montytheblade]

sat up just singing this song

 

[DaddyDozy]

Almost cried watching that! What a great bunch of lads. UTFB

 

[Foxy]

Allez allez Allez.....

 

[1889]

Good point, where is Madine?

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

Good point, where is Madine?

Think someone said earlier he’d been tucked into bed in hotel

 

[Foxy]

Good point, where is Madine?

Sleeping off this afternoon, top to tail with Stears.

 

[nopigfansintown]

Think Napoli did it before Liverpool mind.

It's a European football chant that's been going around for years. Liverpool anglicised it

 

[1889]

Sleeping off this afternoon, top to tail with Stears.

Probably for the best, don’t want him windmilling on West Street and missing for the Stoke game, Allez, Allez, Allez

 

[wavy-blade]

He's a bit out of tune Allez allez allez .

 

[blade789]

Lucky enough to be in attendance tonight. Fantastic evening. Couldn’t help but think Eagan will end up wearing an armband for United.

Highlight of the evening was when the auction prize was to be involved in next seasons team photo and Deano bidded on it!

 

[blade789]

Great night. Most of the players had spunked their loads afternoon drinking. By the time 7 o’clock came around most of them were ready for bed. Special shout out to stearman who was absolutely shit faced from the moment he walked in!

 

[Captain Obvious]

The final verse is:

He stuck the paper to the wall,
They called us journeymen,
Now we're on a journey,
To the Fcking Prem!

I don't think he's referring to the white paper on the wall at Norwich, sounds to me like it's a newspaper article where they referred to the players as journeymen.

Anyway, John Egan, take a bow - that was brilliant!

 

[Toronto Blade]

Pontus Jansson will hearing that in his nightmares
