Player of season awards dinner/Egan's song

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

I feel that you're trying too hard now nic. Reel it back a bit and it'll be more believable

If you listen very carefully to the video, you'll be able to hear my drunken basso buffo, quite low down in the mix.

 

[rompodebailey]

Allez allez allez

Turns out there was Grey Goose in that tonic last night

 

[SittingontheBall]

Just a bit of casual sexism from him there Linz. Enough for a ban?...
Norwich taking the piss out of United for celebrating our promotion because they didn't celebrate their own is hilarious. A strange kind of jealousy; the socially inadequate sort. I bet they're having a tea party today,with a meal of organic veg (carrots) and mineral water afterwards.

Followed by a nice night in with his sister.

 

[guancheblade]

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

That last verse ie the killer! If anything, Egan deserves to hear that being sung at Stoke away if nothing else.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

What a leader for the dressing room! Top lad.

 

[LJBlade]

21 clean sheets is it?

He's a big part of that, Looks like a leader, what the fuck we're Brentford thinking?

Apparently they're still happy about the transfer because he didn't fit into their style of play.

Their style of play must be conceding goals...

Absolutely fantastic!

This squad are going to bring a likeability and personality to the Premier League next season, combined with the fact that we have a likeable, straight talking manager and we actually play exciting football, I can see many people learning about us next year and growing to love us.

May that last for ever, and may we never spoil it with the soulless Pogbas, Yayas and whoevers of this world.

Love to see Lundstram poleaxe Pogba.

 

[Northyorksblade]

Didn't know you'd won the Championship so fuck off and come back when you have.

No don't bother

 

[broomhillblade]

Allez allez allez

What's all this French nonsense? I thought CW wasn't too fond of Johnny Foreigners in his team.
However, with a bit of tidying up, it might make a decent European Song Contest entry. (I'm joking, of course).

 

[Sothall_Blade]

Let's all join the Norwich forums and call your team a set of boring arseholes for celebrating with liberally sprayed Evian wrapped up some bizarre plea for inclusivity that somehow manages to be massively sexist - see what response we get.

Has "shenanigans" been officially declared yet? I always seem to miss out on it.

Knock yourselves out...

 

[Guesty]

Freeman, Stearman and Madine have just been snapped in the Copthorne lift heading down for Breakfast.

With Stefan Scougall in tow, apparently.

 

[penthouseblade]

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

Hibs do a good version also...

 

['Doc' Pace my hero]

I don’t know about the demographic of your board. What I do know is that all responses to my post have been anti it or abusive. That drunken behavior by the players in public is condoned encourages /engenders a similar culture on here and, by extension throughout the club. There will be plenty of people who agree with me but the macho culture out there discourages them from giving their opinion through fear of abuse. That’s not my definition of inclusivity. Shame really given the great season you’ve had that they couldn’t wait a week and let off steam out of the public eye. BTW it would be great if both teams could stay up next year it rarely happens though.

SUFC is a tight football club,a family,the supporters and players have a real bond.We are free to argue and criticise each other,but we will not accept stupid and ilinformed opinions from outsiders like yourself.We are from Sheffield,not Norwich,it is a working class northern industrial city and when we have something to celebrate we celebrate hard.We don't do it to impress others and we are certainly not ashamed,you don't understand what makes us tick and you never will,next time keep your opinions about our club and it's supporters to yourself !!

 

[Steve Mackan]

That John Egan song! Absolute legend

Anybody know whether a member of the playing squad has ever before come up with a chant that ends up being sung on the terraces?

 

[metty]

Yes, Its a little known fact that John Denver was on United's books as a youth. He had to pack football in because we wouldn't let him play wearing jam jar bottom glasses.

 

[Inter_blade83]

Now with lyrics via the club

 

[Booker4]

“If you haven’t got a song, get out of the pub”

I wondered what he said at the beginning? I couldn't understand what he was saying and ironically he got easier to comprehend when he was singing!

Jimmy Hill wrote a club song for Coventry when he was their Manager.
Other than that, probably not

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

John Egan, this be the stuff of United legend and folklore lad, you absolute hero. Consider yourself well and truly loved by the fans for eternity...

 

[CarlMcBlade]

Does this mean we’ve got to bounce now?

 

[Robby Blade]

Hibs do a good version also...

Wednesday also, but they've been holding it back 20 years.

 

[Bladepicker]

Mate you're a canary, go celebrate your own bloody promotion.

He will. With a good novel, some San Pellegrino bottled water and a star shaped crumpet.

 

[Rangoon blade]

Next you’ll be telling me the entertainment was Bernard Manning and Jim Davidson followed by strippers, scampi in a basket served with blue nun was enjoyed by all and everyone drove home. Oh and btw best remove the asbestos from the ceiling apparently it might pose a health risk.

You make that sound like a bad thing !!!

 

[shorehamview]

I don’t get the adulation for employees getting hammered in public. They are on duty at a club end of year award and to turn up for it incapable through drink would in any other walk of life lead to disciplinary action. Firstly winning the championship, as opposed to being runners up, has a healthy financial premium. Being in that state , when not regular drinkers, is not going to help that. Secondly you have a Saudi prince part owner to whom that sort of behavior is massively disrespectful. Thirdly the club wants to be viewed as inclusive to all. To default to getting shitfaced to celebrate success flies in the face of inclusivity for women , kids, various religions and anyone who can enjoy something without getting hammered. It gives succour to, and reinforces, the sort of macho boorish behavior seen around grounds on a match day and is a really poor example. Now before anyone tells me to jog on i’ve Got no problem with them getting drunk but it should have been at the end of the season and out of the public eye. Rather than a PR success I see it as something they might regret in the cold light of day

Go and have a few pints of whatever flat, rancid piss they drink down there in the swamps of of Norfolk, then get your stubby little cock out and wrap the six digits of one hand round it and have a wank.

It’ll feel better than all those times shagging your mum/sister/donkey (please delete as appropriate) and you might get some of that bitter angst out of your system.

When you’ve finished that, kindly fuck off.

You talk about inclusivity yet sneer at somebody drinking blue nun and eating scampi . Typical middle-class socialist - completely right on but actually loathe the working class and their lifestyle

They just showed part of the Egan song on Sky Sports News
