THAT Ollie Norwood chant

[BettingBlade]

Think it needs more verses. Like one for every player I reckon.

Anything is better than that god awful ‘oh what a night’ song.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

That’s fine.

You sound like Alan Partridge having sex.

 

[Rodley]

You sound like Alan Partridge having sex.

Kidney dish & two egg cups?

 

[YES Blade]

I can’t see it catching on but we’ll see.

The best songs are generally simple with plenty of repetition.

 

[Dnblade]

Pass the ball
Pass the ball
Ollie Norwood
Pass the ball
Pass the ball I say
Pass the ball
Pass the ball
Ollie Norwood
Playing Football the Wilder way.

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

Could have my John Fleck one, change it to Norwood

Nor-wood
Forever may he be
Right at the heart of our midfield 3
And he'll cheer us up
Wherever we may be
When he rifles home from inside the D

What do you reckon?

I reckon that you won’t be needing to find a space on your mantelpiece for an Ivor Novello.

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

I'm no Mary Whitehouse but surely there's enough imagination out there not to have to use the word 'fucking' ?

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

I'm no Mary Whitehouse but surely there's enough imagination out there not to have to use the word 'fucking' ?

If the word is good enough for Geoffrey Chaucer, then it’s good enough for John Street.

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

If the word is good enough for Geoffrey Chaucer, then it’s good enough for John Street.

Can't argue with that

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

I've updated it to modern 'English'

So, yeah, no, we’ve got, like, Ollie, like, Norwood
So he is like, fucking, like, reyt, like, good
So put one in the, like, box son
So, like, whoa
So time, like, I'm not gonna lie, like, flies by in the, like, red white and, like, black
So don’t you know Sheff, like, United are, like, I mean, back

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

It's not bad, it's just too short for my liking. The start comes round again soon. It needs to go round twice...

So...

We’ve got Ollie Norwood
He is fucking reyt good
Put one in the box son
Whoa

We’ve got Ollie Norwood
He is fucking reyt good
Put one in the box son
Whoa

Time flies by in the red white and black
Don’t you know Sheff United are back

Time flies by in the red white and black
Don’t you know Sheff United are back.

 

[HighfieldBlade]

* Old bastard alert *
George Ezra? - never heard of him.

 

[bromtom]

I reckon that you won’t be needing to find a space on your mantelpiece for an Ivor Novello.

I want a South Bank Show and nothing less.

 

[JohnDenver]

Here is the video for you, fella.

A real catchy tune.

A wealthy and successful young chap apparently singing about his nice holiday in Australia.

I’m not jealous at all....

 

[Stanthemanfan]

Ooooooh
Ollie norwoods magic
He has got magic boots
And when he knocks the ball about
He's just as good as coutts
He'll spray it to the left
He'll spray it to the right
You'll never get the ball off him
He'll keep the cunt all night!

 

[Bonzo84]

Ooooole olé olé olé,
Norwood Norwood
Ooooole olé olé olé
Norwood Norwood

 

[boo radley]

If the word is good enough for Geoffrey Chaucer, then it’s good enough for John Street.

If he's signing for us shouldn't that be in the rumours section?

 

[SUFC Guy]

Looks good fun but wtf do they have to thump the ceiling?

Banging on tables and co-ordinated kidney punching with wheel chair tipping is preferred

 

[HVR]

what about to The Smiths 'there is a light and it never goes out'

Score a goal tonight!
Score from anywhere
We don't care we don't care
cos if Oli Norwood
Should score in front of us
and it's not offside
Well the pleasure - the privilege is ours

 

[Wandsworth Blade]

A song that will bring the house down. Or at least the ceiling.

 

[Dnblade]

Who's that playing on the desso
I can't believe my very eyes
Oliver Norwood is his name
He can really play the game
Cos i thought it was Pirlo in disguise

 

[Champagneblade]

A wealthy and successful young chap apparently singing about his nice holiday in Australia.

I’m not jealous at all....

I thought it was Simon Moore at first!

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

I suspect that if you play a George Ezra album backwards, rather than hearing hidden satanic messages like the good old days, it sounds better.

"Oh come on Nicolaus, it's George Ezra! Don't pick on him; he's so good, he's so clean cut & handsome and it's such a catchy song for us to sing!"

F**k that! When did mediocrity and banality become a good image for our club? I want us to sing a song by someone who f***ing meant it! Not by someone playing ping pong & eating a fruit flavoured gelato! I don't care if they died in a puddle of their own urine or choked on someone else's vomit, I want to sing a song by someone who played from their f***ing hearts! Saying that, I quite like Fairport Convention.

 

[mattbianco1]

Excellent.

Still think it's bang out of order not to sing Billy Sharp to the Baby Shark tune!

Pigs sing it to Lucas Joao.

 

[mattbianco1]

It's not bad, it's just too short for my liking. The start comes round again soon. It needs to go round twice...

So...

We’ve got Ollie Norwood
He is fucking reyt good
Put one in the box son
Whoa

We’ve got Ollie Norwood
He is fucking reyt good
Put one in the box son
Whoa

Time flies by in the red white and black
Don’t you know Sheff United are back

Time flies by in the red white and black
Don’t you know Sheff United are back.

Or...

We’ve got Ollie Norwood
He is fucking reyt good
Put one in the box son
Whoa

Billy Sharp will smash it
Into the top corner
...and we'll go fucking mental
Whoa

Time flies by with the Shoreham boys
and you'll know when we're making some noise

'Cos we all follow the red white and black
Don’t you know Sheff United are back!

'Cos we've got Ollie Norwood....

I do so miss my kids at that age. Your own kids are always the best, however old. But at that age kids are the bestest of the best

It’s a “yes” from me for a Billy Sharp song.*

Yep. The best cover versions usually remain true(ish) to the original ... while reinventing far enough to make the new version their own.

The original structure works.

I’m in

 

[BLADES1988]

All these new songs are shit! At least the younguns might actually start singing along though if they know the songs, if they can distract themselves long enough between vapes.

 

[Keef Chedwyn]

Pigs sing it to Lucas Joao.

Just had an opening a speeding fine feeling reading that. Gutted.

How good would Billy Sharp sound though?! It's nearly the right words!
