Can't we have Hitler sings the GCB after the fall of Berlin?

German Chancellor’s Bunker?

Call me thick but why would he sing it

Please don’t slaughter me

 

[1889]

Call me thick but why would he sing it

Please don’t slaughter me

Thick!

 

[Bruce Wayne]

I like the kop version best when we are on it.

He loves dem blades. I've seen him sing it live at two gigs in Sheffield now. Maybe we should get him to a game. If we can get Mick Foley to a game then how hard can it be

 

[Topplayersleave]

I thought Flea had been to a game.

I'm not sure why he's a fan or what made him pick United

 

[metty]

Nobody picks United. United pick you.

Being a blade is like having herpes. You’ve got a rough idea when you caught the bug, but can’t be sure, you’ll always have it in your system, you can pass it on to those close to you, it can make you unpopular, even went you think it’s died down; it flares up, it can be very painful, there’s no cure for it and it’s ended a few relationships

 

[1888to1889]

Asked for that

I think you've confused UTD with STD.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

I think you've confused UTD with STD.

There have been quite a few seasons in the past where its been very difficult to seperate them.

If memory serves, he was over here playing a festival a few years ago and saw us play on the TV (we might have been playing West Brom). He's supposed to have come out on stage raving about United.

Basically walked on stage and said something like “what about that Sheffield United performance” and was met with total confusion of about 50,000 stoned/ pissed up/ not interested in football festival goers! Pretty sure it was live on BBC

I thought it was during one of the amazing cup runs we had (I'll plump for the Clough one), valiant underdogs taking down tougher and tougher opponents, until finally cut down just before glory.
(Also I reckon being The Blades had a lot to do with it, I mean imagine saying to your mates, 'did you see The Lilywhites performance last night?')

I actually know the real reason why Flea came to play the GCB.

A friend of mine who was in my class at school called Antony Genn is in a band called The Hours and is also a Blades fan. He also worked with Pulp on Different Class and co-wrote the Mescaleros album with Joe Strummer. Anyway he got to be friends with Flea and was telling him about the Blades and the GCB. Flea liked it and decided to play it onstage. I'm not sure he has actually become a Blade himself as a result.

Genn is also big mates with Damien Hirst, Noel Gallagher and Ronnie O'Sullivan. O'Sullivan used one of his songs 'Ali in the Jungle' as his entrance music at the Crucible.

He’s best know for getting his meat & two veg out & dancing like a loon on stage during elastica’s set at Glastonbury ‘95.

*fact check that Percy Pedantic & your fellow Pudding Pullers.

Very true. Not proud of that and was not surprisingly completely out of it on substances at the time. Cleaned up about 10 years ago and now doesn't even drink. One of those where he explains if he had one, it would be a problem.

Another fact is that he and Cerys Matthews once got married 'for a laugh'. - they are no longer married.

I read somewhere (probably on here) that he has family from Sheffield who are Blades

I was going to post the video, but thought better of it. I can well imagine that it seemed like a good idea at the time. No matter how embarrassed he is about it, he's not as bad as mike hindert from the bravery who stripped off at glastonbury in '05. To make matters worse it was a warm day as well. The fact check comment wasn't aimed at you C71.

I’d say it’s impossible. He committed suicide in a bunker in Berlin in 1945.

This is getting ridiculous!
