Oldest song you remember sung at the lane

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

Not the oldest but not one many seem to remember

He shot, he missed,
He must be f*cking pissed
Charlie George, Charlie George

Probably a Spurs song

 

[Sean Thornton]

I don't know Sean but it was sung on our kop regularly mate

I know, l just thought it was something they did “first”.

 

[bypassblade]

I know, l just thought it was something they did “first”.

They possibly did fella makes no odds they'd claim it anyhow.

 

[Snake]

I remember Rotherham fans singing "Tha fills up mi senses................." back in early 80s. Never did catch on though.

 

[YouFUMS]

My old man
said be a wensday fan
I said fook off, bollux you're a koont

 

[Eskimo]

I do I do I do I do
I do, I love United
We whistled and sang
‘Til Shoreham Street rang
We’ll win the cup and the league

 

[coaxingstar71]

Probably earliest I remember was we hate Nottingham Forest we hate Sunderland to we hate Sheffield Wednesday but United we love you

To the tune of Land of Hope and Glory.

I recall one from possibly the late 70's/early 80's that went....
If I had the wings of a sparrow,
If I had the arse of a cow,
I'd fly over Hillsboro....
And sh!t on the bastards below, below....

I know the tune but can't think what the original song was called.

[originaltrueblade]

Klopp looks like Bingo

 

[GodricBlade]

"Harry haslam, Danny bergara bibbody bobody boo,
Put'em together & what have you got?
Dibbody doboddy doo"

I kid you not.

This was mine too.
But was there a 2nd verse......

Jackie Charlton, insert name of asst manager
Bibbody bobbody boo
Stick the boot in what have you got?
Shit all over your shoe!

 

[yorkshirecoast]

Joe is evil - to Joe Bolton who was a bit of a hard case and cult figure for us in the 80s. I can’t describe the tune because it didn’t have one! We had some great lyricists in our fan base at the time.

 

[Silent Blade]

This was mine too.
But was there a 2nd verse......

Jackie Charlton, insert name of asst manager
Bibbody bobbody boo
Stick the boot in what have you got?
Shit all over your shoe!

[VictoryBlade]

"Georgie Best superstar,,,,,,,carries a handbag and wears a bra".

Hands up if you were there and sung that song to Georgie,god bless him.

"Come over here,
Come over here,
Have a go o oh
Have a go"

&

"Come & av a go if you think your hard enough"

&

"You're going home in a fu##in ambulance"

Those were the days

[DiggerBlade]

Two Kop songs I remember from the late 60's for Colin Addison

Addy addy addy addy Addison
Addy addy addy addy Addison

2nd one to the tune of Simon & Garfunkel's Mrs Robinson

This is to you Colin Addison
We all love you more than you will know
Oh oh oh

 

[VictoryBlade]

Does anyone remember
Mrs Hall's toffee rolls are the best
Mrs Hall's toffee rolls are the greatest
She uses Strawberry milk from her breasts
And her husband does the rest

This was sung in 70's

No it was Mrs Halls sausage rolls...………………...honest

 

[bypassblade]

No it was Mrs Halls sausage rolls...………………...honest

I was thinking that when I wrote it but I believe they sang 2 versions

 

[Lawrence]

"Harry haslam, Danny bergara bibbody bobody boo,
Put'em together & what have you got?
Dibbody doboddy doo"

I kid you not.

Top of division 2

 

[Jason jacobs]

He's fat, he's round,
He weighs 400 pound
Fatty Foulkes
Fatty Foulkes.

He loved this song did William, he used to doff his cap and eat a ham in front of the Kop, to huge cheers and rattle waving.

And don't forget the cracking little ditty
Hes fat,hes round hes taking Wednesday down, Atkinson,Atkinson

 

[Jason jacobs]

always remember fans singing "all we are saying ,is give us a goal " in 80s ,most blades took offence to it and shouted for it to stop .

 

[Lawrence]

Started a few years earlier that one...around mid-late 60’s. Instead of ‘clapperty clap the Blades’ we sang...
‘M-i
M-i-c
M-i-c-k
Mick Jones!’
Who was out of interest for those who didn’t know, one of the finest CF’s ever to wear a Blades shirt.

It was:
In Dublin fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I once laid my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
She wheeled a wheelbarrow through streets broad and narrow
Singing
M.I. MIC. MICK, MICK JONES

 

[Mansfield_Blade]

One I partly remember but I can't remember the name, went something like
I went up to ??????
I asked his name
He wouldn't answer, So I asked him again
I kicked him the head, and I kicked him again
?????? ???????, He's dead.

Please help me out it driving me mad

 

[Lawrence]

Back in the apparently the early Unitedites used to sing 'who ate all the pies' to a certain rotund Goalkeeper that we had on our books who weighed 22 stone, and I remember reading that the Blades fans (again late 1800s / early 1900s) used to sing a song called 'we are the Randy Dandy Boys'. It was about a group of lads going out on the piss all day at the races and getting up to no good. Never been able to track down the actual lyrics though.

But as there was reports of violence breaking out between Utd and Wendy's fans back at Olive Grove, it seems that we have always had a 'boisterous set of lads' following us. The original lads long since gone now though of course.

Who ate all the pies'
Who ate all the pies'
You fat basted
You fat basted
You ate the pies!

One I partly remember but I can't remember the name, went something like

He wouldn't answer, So I asked him again
I kicked him the head, and I kicked him again
?????? ???????, He's dead.

Please help me out it driving me mad

Walking down Shoreham street swinging a chain Saw a Wednesday fan and I asked him is name. I stabbed him in the balls and kicked him in is head Now that Wednesday fan is dead Something like that

 

[Lawrence]

When I were a lad, my old Dad and my a Brother in law’s Dad (who supported the dark side) used to have a sing off after they’d had a few jars at Christmas. One song they both sang started with...
‘Play up United/Wednesday boys, Wednesday/United play like toys....’
And ended with ‘So play up United/Wednesday boys!’ at which point everybody joined in and shouted United or Wednesday depending on who they supported.

I can’t recall any other words. I guess the tune has to be 80+ years old, anybody else remember their parents singing it or are old enough to remember singing it at the Lane?

Yes Grey Blade, Portsmouth still sing it!

Play up Pompey,
Pompey play up,
Play up Pompey,
Pompey play up!

'Play Up Pompey' - Portsmouth FanChants

One of the most famous anthems and a must have ringtone.

What years would that be? The flat cap brigade! 30s 40s or was it later?

 

[derfblade.3]

When one of our opponents got injured the crowd chanted...."Bring on the dustbin".

 

[bartman]

To Howard Kendall when he was still playing ( with Blackburn I think)...after a dodgy tackle the Kop chanted "he's just a bald headed bastard",

 

[GrayBlade]

Yes Grey Blade, Portsmouth still sing it!

Play up Pompey,
Pompey play up,
Play up Pompey,
Pompey play up!

Cheers for that. It’s similar but not the same. I think the song that I can recall went along to the tune of Knees up mother Brown or something very similar. It went..
Play up United boys
The Wednesday play like toys
??????
??????
SO play up UNITED boys!

I can’t remember the 3rd and 4th lines but pretty sure that the other 3 are correct.

It was the late 1950’s early 60’s that I remember them singing it at Christmas time but as they were probably the oldest 2 there and the only ones who seemed to know the words, I’d guess you‘re right, probably pre/post WW2.

 

[GrayBlade]

To Howard Kendall when he was still playing ( with Blackburn I think)...after a dodgy tackle the Kop chanted "he's just a bald headed bastard",

On the bald headed theme, I recall Mark Todd playing against us for Rotherham at Millmoor when we were top of the league by which time he‘d lost his mop of curly hair so we all welcomed him to the tune of Boney M’s Holiday...
Mark Todd
Poor sod
Where‘s your Barnet gone?
You've lost your hair
But we don’t care
Blades are number one

 

[Blade-on-Tyne]

Immediately after scoring in the mid 70's the Kop would always 'sing'

Der de der
Der de der
Der de der de der de der
Der de der der de der der de der

I can sing it in my head , it's to the tune of a popular refrain, but I'm buggered if I know which one.

I've got earworm with it now.

Cheers.

It’s the Tom Hark theme.
You tube it. A real ear worm.
