Could Billy change the anthem

[Tyler Durden]

With reference to my previous post, no, it's fill. As in 'you fill up my senses, come fill me again'.

Annies Song may be, but GCB is a different beast.

But 8 pints of ale is far more appropriate and realistic and in times gone by, somewhat essential.
Football
Fags
Food
Beer.
That's the senses fulfilled.

You don't go fucking fishing on a match day unless you're not going to the game. Besides, 8 pints of maggots turns you from a fisherman to a bloody zoo keeper / river warden

I don't go fishing at all, it seems a totally pointless affair, pestering and catching an animal you aren't going to eat.

Defo Magnet my picture says so

 

[georgebernardshaw]

I always used to sing "come thrill me again" and was under the impression that this was another of the word changes - it seems to have gone out of fashion though and I am repeatedly told I am wrong. I prefer the "thrill me again" conclusion, I find it fitting for a football match.

EDIT: and can't believe maggots/magnet is being discussed seriously. Maggots is just a wind-up, surely.

More of a hook-up actually...

It often feels like that when I'm catching nowt..

A group of Norfolk Park, Arbourthorne and Helley blades claim ownership of the song...........A creation in the pub after an away game.

They say it is definitely Magnet, referring to the ready available pint that was found in the working mans clubs in the area as well as in the Captive Queen pub on the Norfolk Park.

Quite. Can't see the point in fishing if you're not going to eat it.
Love fish, me.
Want to eat it not annoy it

Has Billy done enough for the ultimate accolade, a change to the Greasy Chip Butty:

You fill up my senses
Like a gallon of magnate
Like a packet of Woodbine
Like a good pinch of snuff
LIKE THE FAT LAD FROM SHEFFIELD
Like a greasy chip butty
Like Sheffield United
Come fill me again

It would be the ultimate reward.

No.

 

[Danny_Boy]

Go to the match drink 8 pints have some snuff and maybe a chip butty. Why the fuck would you take 8 pints of Maggots with you?

It is 100% Magnet, maggots makes no sense at all and makes me worry that some people think it could even possibly be maggots.

Even the most keen fisherman I know would not go down to the local pond with a 8 pints of maggots not unless he was starting his own massive family of flies.

 

[HillmortonBlade]

And "maggotts" - are the larvae of flies. Sold in "pints" so I'm led to understand - but not gallons

When I were a lad and fishing for the truly industrial amounts of bream in the many waters of Fermanagh, you needed to buy a gallon if fishing for a weekend.

Damn greedy fish, those Irish bream.

Not sure if that informs the debate any though.

Maggots get lots of bites.......

 

[CarlMcBlade]

As we are supposed to be singing the song TO our beloved Blades. It always annoyed me that the words are; "Like Sheffield United" instead of Oh Sheffield United come fill me again.

Just saying........

 

[Sean Thornton]

Maggots (that's how it's spelt)

Definitely maggots

Maggots.

It's not but has anyone ever sung "magnate"?

Shouldn't you be in Vietnam then?
