I have probably missed this but I like to know where did this song come ?
Who ever made it up is a star because it really is Magic and for me sums up the whole of last season........

UTB
 

Other teams have used it before.

Kenneth decided to put JOC's name in it though.
 
Didn't it come from Leeds originally?

Not a Blades original for sure. Half the teams in the league were singing it last season. Its a good song but I prefer Blades originals. And while JOC was a star last season, so were many of our other players whose contributions were more "unsung"
 
Thanks, haven't been to an away match for years so it was new to me, and although I know JOC was part of a team the song will always remind me of last season....

UTB
 
No he didn't Jim, that was "I'll get more loving from that dumb dumb dummy than I ever got from you"......:)

Loads of teams sing a variation of it.

Man U sang it for Roy Keane. Boro sang it for Juninho. Chelsea sing it for Fabregas. Stoke sing it for Arnautovic.

All of those variants say "he could've signed for {insert team}, but he said no fuck that"

Unfortunately our version is a direct copy of Leeds United's for Pontus Jansson. We literally changed the name.

Villa sing a similar one to us - "Nathan Baker's magic, he wears a magic hat. And if you throw a brick at him he'll head the fucker back. Chester is his partner and he will do the same. And when we get promoted we'll sing this song again."
 
The Fleck one is better.

But with regards O'Connell's magic hat song, what the chuff do we sing now? Do we sing "now we've won promotion, we'll sing this song all night" or do we reset with a new season to "and when we win promotion, we'll sing this song all night".

WE NEED CLARITY PEOPLE, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

i think they started singing it about pontus Jannsen (however you spell it) when they started looking like they were going to nail a play off spot
 

Of course it was, Lonnie Donegan's "My old man's a dustman he wares a dustman's hat", fancy me not seeing that..

I must be getting old.......:(

When we beat the Wed, we'll sing this song all night.
 
Should be -

Putting on the agony putting on the style,
that's what all the Wendy fans keep doing all the while
and as I look around me I some times have to smile
seeing all the Wendy fans putting on the style...
 
Oooooooh Martin Smith is magic, he wears a magic hat,
and when he got to Bramall Lane he said "I'm having that",
he didn't go to W*dn*sd*y,
or Barnsley 'cos they're shite
he came to Sheff United 'cos we're fucking dynamite.

Now is is just me, but i'm sure I remember us singing that, (albeit not for long as he didn't hang about long before Bruce stole him off to Huddersfield).

Lonny Donegan Jim, I'd have thought you'd remember it :) They played the original at one of the end of season home games and I'd forgotten how terrible it is :)

'My old man's a dustman' yeah, I'm referring to Max's little known cover version, banned from the wireless due to its 'fruity' lyrics

I only vaguely remember Smith as I was younger. But was he any good? How did his career pan out? Was he decent before and after United too, or did he have a purple patch for us?

Well liked at Sunderland as he was a local lad but also known as a drinker. Looked good when we put him up front and scored a few goals. Sold on to Huddersfield quite quickly.

Cheers mate. What was the story and the context back then then? How come we flogged a family prolific striker so soon after him arriving?

I remember it being sung about George Graham. First by the gooners and then it was changed to 'and when he saw the fifty grand, he said I'm having that' and sung by everyone else.
 
I was in the supermarket with my teenage son who goes to the matches with me the other day and from the other aisle behind the cornflakes we heard a young girls voice (guessing about 5ish) singing:
'That jacks magic and he's got a magic hat'
Me and the boy smirked at each other, and then the song continued...
'and when someone threw a brick at him....'
Then a booming blokes voice (assuming her dad) shouts 'Oi don't you dare'.
Me and the boy couldn't stop laughing all the way round the supermarket.

My little girl regularly sings a censored/3 year old appropriate version, its not the same, but lovely to hear her singing United songs any road.

....and if you chuck a brick at him he'll head that brick right back...

SS censored version when kids are there - full version on Tuesday nights though, as the sensitive ones should be in bed!

Magic
