Champions of England

[ThatJa]

Leicester City fans were singing "Champions of England, you'll never sing that" which got me thinking, didn't we win Englands top division in the 30's? Maybe my History is bad (it probably is) but I recall reading at some point that we had a decentish spell as the top club in England..

Any historians available?

I think maybe you might have misheard. We sing a song for our late chairman which goes 'Champions of England, you made us sing that'

Although it's entirely possible they sang your version as well

Sheffield United won the league in 1898.

Ah right, that makes sense. Sorry about that.

Nah don't apologise. We've sand your version to teams like Huddersfield etc and it's so cringey

If we hadn't just lost to them I'd probably think this was catchy.

Lets be honest if we had won the league 4 years ago we'd be right wank jets about it and rightly so!

 

[madeinsheffield]

We’ve won all 4 tiers

 

[jaybee]

Leicester fans were singing?!?!?

So that's Fatty Foulke's dinner plate, where's the trophy?

I'd still be getting over that hangover...

Sounds like this tune - (four men had a dream) sung by Rangers. This clip has been posted before;

They look right happy about it.

Did you not know that football only began in 1992?

Sheffield United won the league in 1898.

Remember it well!

 

[nopigfansintown]

United also won the war time top flight. So 2-1 the other way this time.

Slightly disappointing to see none of those chaps are smoking a pipe

It’s actually triply cringey because Huddersfield were Champions of England three times in three years (1923–24, 1924–25, 1925–26)...

 

[Punk Blade]

Our game against Leicester was the first top flight meeting between former champions who didn’t win the title in the 20th century.

Now, that’s a PROPER celebration. None of this tipping beer on heads and calling Leeds muppets nonsense for these lads.

Bet they can't wait to get down the pub and douse each other in bitter, porter and stout

"Every three weeks I get the horse and cart into town..."

"Here we are lads, League Champions. You mark my words, this will be the first of many league titles for Sheffield United."

Sang both versions.

The one about the chairman is a great song, has to be said.

 

[mattbianco1]

I like Wednesday's version though.. Carlos had a dream... I particularly like the ending of that version "Sheffield Wednesday, we're on our way back!"

 

[10-0 win]

Won first division north 1945, unofficial though.

Clue. One is on the front row hiding his erection with hat as Miss Sheffield United has just shown a bit of ankle.
