An ode to Mr WILDER

[Benny and the Blades]

We'll be back at the Lane next season, Albert our Lee an me,
cheering for Mr Wilder and the lads that have filled us with glee.
We're all feeling top of the morning, our problems forgotten for now
looking forward dead chuffed to the Premiership
And for that -
......................TUFFTY LAD ,TAKE A BOW

Now I'm sure plenty out there can do better, so come on let's have em

UTB.

Sandy, you're the first...

Nicely composed, rhythmic and informed, take a bow lad UTMB!!!

 

[PokerBlade]

One day I will see an amateur poem that isn't in rhyming couplets. One day...

 

[BritishSteel]

Here is a limerick.

There was a young man called Chris
Who took the lads out on the piss
When they won promotion
It caused a commotion....
With some deluded twats in S6.

Who needs Shakespeare, eh?

 

[Barney]

Sheffield United are Premier League,
Sheffield Wednesday are Championship,
Ha ha ha,
The end

 

[BritishSteel]

Haven't got the foggiest idea what your on about, give us a sample Mr Shakespeare .....

Shakespeare LOVED a rhyming couplet

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Shakespeare LOVED a rhyming couplet

He also loved iambic pentameter but I don't see much of that on here.

Here’s one I scribbled down yesterday...with today’s fucking date on it...

 

[Yank]

Wilder, Wilder what a guy
Took us to the Prem oh my
Wilder, Wilder what a team he made
Will always and forever be a Blade

 

[BigBed]

Sheffield United are Premier League,
Sheffield Wednesday are Pub League,
Ha ha ha,
The end

Just sorted that for you fella!

 

[Sean Thornton]

Good writer , shit pub.

"Good writer"


Praise indeed

 

[Ricky]

Funny Little Wilder is a funny little man,
Wins promotion, whenever he can
Signs the right players,
Plays the right way,
He's no Nigel Clough,
What more can I say

 

[BritishSteel]

"Good writer"


Praise indeed

Wouldn`t make it as a writer in this day and age as his work glorifies knife crime and toxic masculinity.

Chris wilder, I love you, cheered the pissed up throng, along London Road. Me 'owd.

Old school is new school he proclaimed to the throng with a wink in his eye and Morretti by his side.

We'll have a reight go at them premier league Jessie's he thought but aught not to say, not yet anyway

Just a word to the wise, Morretti is lush and the problem you'll find is in the final push as you get full to your ears and the Mrs clobbers you for having too many beers, too many in years.

 

[Isaw Joeshaw]

" Up a league , up a league , up a league onward
Into the Premier the Mighty Blades thundered
Piggies to the left of them , Dirties to the right
But they just trampled over them
Because they're fucking shite "

With acknowledgements to Alfred Lord Tennyson . ( But not a lot )

 

[103SecondsOfMagic]

Lord of all Sheffield, lord of the Lane,
Lord of the Shoreham Street, Wilder's his name,
We'll follow United wherever we go,
He's Christopher Wilder, he's one of our own

[Trigger Blade]

Our football was bad
Then Chris came to manage us
Now we’re in The Prem

[Weasel]

When Wilder signed on at the Lane,
Hurrah hurrah
He saw the club in lots of pain,
Hurrah hurrah
He signed some players and that was it,
He turned us great after we were shit,
And we all cheered for Chris
when Wilder signed on at the Lane...

 

[Bergen Blade]

The lyrics of this song always make me think of Wilder's arrival at the club. After numerous failures, we were desperate for someone to 'get' us and be exactly what we needed:

 

[RammyBlade]

Here is a limerick.

There was a young man called Chris
Who took the lads out on the piss
When they won promotion
It caused a commotion....
With some deluded twats in S6.

Love it !

And we all cheered for Chris

Not sure everyone will know the tune, but as a helpful sould I'll provide some musical backing from a top rock combo:
