Follow, Follow, Follow...etc - what a rubbish song.

So if we really banned fans from singing any song slated on this thread BDTBL would be much quieter than it already is.

Agree with the 'follow, follow' nonsense but other than that as long as it creates an atmosphere I'm all for all chants.

Who said owt about banning? No need to get all Jean Hatchett about it.

I fondly remember singing "he shot, he missed, he must be fucking pissed, number 9, number 9" at Osgood when he missed a sitter in front of the kop from about 2 feet out in the middle of the goal with the ball at his feet. Still don't know how he managed to miss.

Maybe he was pissed?

I think the "Follow, follow, follow" one is a bit shit, but big shout out to whoever was able to write "Deigo De Girolamo" into a song.

Diego De Girolamo. Went to mow a meadow.

Sorry.

Or what about the classic to the same tune, 'you're going to get your f**kin heads kicked in'.

It seemed good fun to sing at the time (late 70's) but I had no intention of doing it but was more than happy to join in from the other end of the pitch! :confused:

I remember going to Udders' old ground (Leeds road?) and you had to walk down some dirt track thing to get to the away end, bit like Millmoor. Our lads were in full song which made me feel comfortable and secure as I walked down this alley until from all three sides of the ground came a massive roar of 'you're gonna get your fucking heads kicked in'. My arse did twitch a bit.
 
It's easy to make one up, just getting people to sing em is the hard bit..

"And you keep us going up and down but that's alright with me"
"Division two, division three, don givens penalty"
"But that's alright with me, yeah that's alright with me, Annnd that's all right with me, cause we're all blades aren't we, yeah We're SUFCcccccc...

Using a brilliant song living on the ceiling, blancmange for the inspiration here..


I'm sure others could do better
 
From the recent past but not heard very often is we are bladesmen, always thought when sung with passiion is still one of the best, and classed as one of our own?

I can remember being shepherded back to the station down that alleyway type thing, there were usually bricks flying over if memory serves.

He were pissed, clues in the song. :D
 
I like Rick Astley's hit "never gonna give you up"
 
no pig fans in town is the best song. totally unique to us.
why are we singing about mcnulty? he doesn't even play for us and is unlikely to again
i love 'barrel of money'.. it's self depracating.. and it's true.
 
Sometimes I wish I was old and boring like a lot on here. Saying it's not like the old days. Of course it's not, it's only the younger generation of fans trying to generate an atmosphere. They don't get much help from miserable fuckers

I vaguely remember the "If I had the wings of a sparrow...." and the "We hate Nottingham Forest we hate Sunderland too..." (to the tune of Land of Hope and Glory) - why don't these get sung anymore, is it just lost over generations?
Click to expand...
I think the 'Wings of a sparrow' chant was generally reserved for the Sheffield derbies and we've not had one of them for a long time. :oops:
Love that chant.

I don't like Barrel of Money either. Makes no sense anymore. We need to sign a player who rhymes with 'promotion is soon'. Or just change the last bit to something like 'with big George Long, we can't go wrong'.

The reason we can't sing "with big George Long it can't go wrong" is because frequently it does! Like on Saturday, for example!
 
I love to go a'wandering
Along the cliffs of Dover
And if I saw a Wednesdayite
I'd push the bastard over
Valderee, valderaa, valderee, valde-rah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

(sung to the tune of The Happy Wanderer)

True. What about 'we're going strong'?
 
I like the variety of songs and see nothing wrong with the "follow", song, and the others mentioned - as long as they aren't repeated endlessly. I thought the variety at ManUre, for example, was really good.

The problem at BDTBL is getting people to sing, not what they sing.

I have a vision of those who moan about the atmosphere, and it includes church mice. :)

UTB
 
Agreed, the 'Follow' song is absolutely wank.

I've said it before on here but my favourite is 'I'm a rambler'. I've never, ever heard it sung at a match but I wish we could get it going.

Few others sing the tune of "We Are Sailing":

Spuds sing "We are Tottenham, Super Tottenham, from the Lane.

Blues sing "We are Brummies, we are Brummies, yes we are" then a second verse "You are wankers, you are wankers, yes you are".

Wimbledon FC had an long version of it with about 10 lines, comparing the more salubrious SW London to places when travelling away:

"We drink champagne, we snort cocaine. we've got ladies over here,
you've got shit jobs, you shag your dogs and your wife is on the game.
we drive ferrari, we drink campari, we've got wombles in our lives,
you've got bus-stops, second hands shops and your mum's in readers wives.
we've got gucci and armani, we've got prada over here,
you've got buyright, your clothes are shite and your haircut's fucking weird.
We are wombles super wombles, super wombles from the Lane,
we are wombles super wombles, we are wombles we drink champagne..."

I'm a Rambler is the definitive Blades song.

I'm a rambler, I'm a rambler
I'm a long way from home
I'll follow United from Sheffield to Rome
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
I'm a rambler, I'm a rambler, I'm a Blade 'til I die

I'll try and get it going at Millwall away as I'm off on a Leo Sayer before that.
