Keith Edwards. Is he our greatest ever player...

[John Street West Terrace]

He did, you can’t remember. you’re stupid and the question was invalid.

It went:

“Keith Edwards
Keith Edwards
Keith Edwards

Keith Edwards
Keith Edwards
Keith Edwards

Keith Edwards
Keith Edwards
Keith Eswards

Keith Edwards,
Keith Edwards!”

All to the tune of “Stars and Stripes Forever”, by John Philip Sousa.

We were innovative in those days.

Yep I was definitely singing those innovative lyrics with great vigour & regularlity … along with nobody puts the ball in the net like Edwards .. Keith Edwards … as it was weekly event of him putting it in the onion bag .. top player

 

[wavy-blade]

Get your Bob Hat on , GetyourBobhatton

Jeez -chirpy chirpy cheep cheep , if you can remember that tune in the charts your seriously getting old , never heard of it me sen

 

[Maidenhead]

You've done it now!

I'll be seeing images of Sally Carr in my head for the rest of the day.

I still sing it to myself from time to time

 

[Alan Birchenall's hair]

You've done it now!

I'll be seeing images of Sally Carr in my head for the rest of the day.

Yeah, images of her in tight hot pants featured heavily in my tugging years as a 13/14 year old

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

More ‘spoken word’ than song but I frequently heard:
Edwards you idle git”

Closely followed by:
Goooooaaaaaalllllll

 

[tincan]

Its incredible to think of the scale and innovative adaptions that such songs and chants have. Yet the originators remain mostly anonymous.

 

[LondonRoad]

did we have a song for Alex Sabella? UTB

Yes, but once again just a chant of his name followed by clapping, on repeat

 

[blade too long]

you missed the

Keith Keith
Hes got nice teeth song then

 

[blade too long]

to be fair Keith Kettlebrough had that song first

 

[Stanthemanfan]

As the players took to the field for the 5 minute, pre kick off warm up, the Division 4 personal song hierarchy went something like:

Keith Edwards
Bob Hatton
Tony Kenworthy
Ian Porterfield
John Mcphail
Steve Neville (if he was lucky)

.... all songs no-nonsense, with no excuses not to know the words.

In my day mid 80,s it was....
Budgie
Rambo joe
Stan the man
Colin Morris(on the wing)
Kenworthy
Edwards

 

[TCsLoveChild]

Yes, but once again just a chant of his name followed by clapping, on repeat

Yes that’s right, thanks…….but of a rubbish chant for such a brilliant player though. UTB

 

[bladestrivia]

Back in the day when I used to travel with the sportsman there was a Donny Blade think he was called Noddy ? He used to sing, and it's Keithy Edwards Keithy Edwards the king he's by far the greatest player the world as ever seen I'd like to think IAM king Keith s number 1 fan along with a certain Mr Brealeyand I don't mean Reg Ps what a player

One Robert Atkins coming out of Millmoor after that wonder goal

 

[WORKSOPBLADE]

Yes, but once again just a chant of his name followed by clapping, on repeat

Oh,Alex Sabella

Ahhh ‘Noddy’
- a somewhat ‘eccentric’ & dishevelled fella with longish ‘tousled’ hair & spectacles ?
One of the original ‘carrier bag firm from recollection
