Memories of Blades chants from the past

[brownie4583]

What are your memories of Blades chants from the past?
He's fat,he's round,he's takin Wednesday down,Atkinson Atkinson!

Harry Haslam,Danny Bergara bibbly bobbly boo,put 'em together and what have you got,top of Division 2!

 

[Maidenhead]

We are the Sheffield United
We play in the red white and black
and we are so proud
we shout it out loud
Division one we're coming back

And here we still are ;-)

 

[sitwell]

Cheer up david Pleat
Oh what can it mean
To a kerb crawling bastard
and a shit football team .

 

[Caveblade]

I loved that one sitters!!

 

[Kenilworth]

I remember we sang more when we had standing on the Shoreham and there was more spontaneity as the humour spread that much quicker.

Songs would spread more quickly as the lyrics could be passed on quicker as the size of the group singing them would be larger as the group had the freedom to collate in a critical mass.

Nowadays we get stuff orchestrated through the PA - most Tannoying that is.

Bring back standing you Lilly Livered, sanctimonious set of politically over sensitive, weak willed apologists.

Alan Cork, Alan Cork, Alan Alan Cork,
He's got no hair, but we don't care,
Alan Alan Cork.

Sublime imaginative lyrics! But boy they sounded good ringing round Wembley.

 

[Ivanhoe]

United...United... The finest football team in all the land... In all the land...

Sang to the theme from the film The Vikings

 

[Paulus]

The Rotherham (substitute as necessary) sing
I don't know why
but after the match
they're going to die

You're going to get your fucking heads kicked in (repeat)
After every goal scored by the opposition

We are Bladesmen, we are Bladesmen, we are Bladesmen from the Lane ...

Sad I know, but I still sing those words if that song ever comes up when we're out.
Also remember the kids nursery song Five fat jellyfish sitting on a rock, sang repeatedly at Grimsby one year. Same group of lads sang the Bobby Ford song ad infinitum at the same game. I believe he'd left us by then too.

Agree (to an extent - properly policed, no admission to pissheads etc.)

The South Stand at Borussia Dortmund holds 25,000 all-standing and is always full. Awesome atmosphere and the reason why the Bundesliga is rapidly overftaking the PL.

I am exactly the same NYB, I do get some funny looks!

I remember when that started. It was away against Reading and 2 guys at the back started and before long the whole terrace had joined in and that was pretty much all we sang for the rest of the game.

 

[broomhillblade]

In my young days the best we seemed to be able to manage was "Ilkley Moor Bah T'at"

Even then I couldn't understand why - Ilkley Moor is miles away from Bramall Lane.

(I know it's supposed to be the Yorkshire anthem)

They need to do something, the average age of a football STer is about 45 and atmosphere is a disappearing completely. If I was 15 to 25 again I'd want to be having a few bevvies, standing on safe terracing and larking about. We need to be careful or we'll miss out a generation of fans - football will be on its way out!!!

 

[Guesty]

'You're so shit it's unbelievable!'

Just because it's been so long since we've made anyone but ourselves look shit.

 

[alcoblade]

Who's your father?
Who's your father?
Who's your father, referee?
You aint got one,
You're a bastard
You're a bastard, referee.

Wonderfully politically incorrect, and should be resurrected.

I was chanting this at our players at the end of today's match

 

[Northyorksblade]

We also sing to hey baby, hey Sheffield w*******ay you're shit hah, very childish

 

[Dnblade]

We - are - the - Shoreham Boys
We make a lot of noise
We've travelled far and wide
We've been to Merseyside
But there's one place that we'd rather be
That's the Shoreham Street
Where it's magnifique
and all the Wednesdayites lay dead at our feet
Nah-nah-na nah nah nah....

Ha,ha..Not heard that one for a long time.

 

[yuley82]

He'll shoot, he'll score
He'll eat your labrador
Sun jihai sun jihai

i mentioned recently i've been going to see Sturm Graz.. at their ground you buy a ticket for the end and get a place (early) and stand where you like. i say stand. noone sits down.. you can buy a beer and have a cig at any time. the average age is around 20. they only get 10k per match but the noise is incredible

 

[torridon]

All you need is a shovel and a pick
A hand grenade and a walking stick
A Wednesday fan to boot and kick
Wooouldn't it be lovely

A group of Blades were singing this constantly during a 3-1 away win at Notts County in the Prem in the early 90's, always stuck with me, it didn't catch on.

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Sweet molly malone
She wheels a wheelbarrow
through streets broad and narrow
Singing clap clap clap clap
The blades

 

[Northyorksblade]

Were at a wedding do tonight, groom was a man u fan. That song came on and we were singing the above, groom and mates were singing a variation about Peter Reid! The old ones are the best. I don't think any of them were old enough to remember Reid as man city manager

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

My all time favourite was when we drew at the sty a few years back (the season they went down under Irvine). They carved out a chance towards the end that was skied over the bar from a good position.....followed by a Blades rendition of "der der der der....fuckin useless, der der der der fuckin useless"

 

[pommpey]

You're going to get your fucking heads kicked in (repeat)

Do you mean like this?

Occasionally commuted to 'he's fucking crap, he needs a cap' during our lesser exciting performances

Have you forgotten ...

Aye, aye, aye, aye
Hodgy is better than Yashin
Mick Jones is better than Eusebio
And Wednesday are in for a thrashin

Never heard it.

But then I left the country in 1966 and didn't return permanently until 1984!
