The song "Shoreham Street, where it is magnifique...."

[Fulwood Blade]

The car transporter thread has raised the point about the old song from the late 60's

It isn't rude, it used to be very loud sung from the kop - it should be reintroduced ready for the next Derby game in November

Edith Piaf - hence the use of Franglais.


(was it Mary Hopkins' eurosceptic re-hash?)

I miss "you're going to get your fucking heads kicked in!" to be honest but I'm sure there is more chance of yours returning

 

[Gin&Juice]

I miss the professional's theme when we scored a goal.

Sadly we have quite a few songs harking back to the 70's and 80's that allude to physical violence against Wednesday fans. "Magnifique" is one. "Cliffs of Dover" is another. "We had Joy we had Fun". And what about "Slinging a Pig"? "No Pig Fans in Town" has the "Jack Charlton is dead" line.

Perhaps in the current moral climate, these song's aren't socially appropriate, as they could dissuade cultural integration and even worse, encourage violence. Should we stop singing them?

We've travelled far and wide London to Merseyside but there is only one place we'd rather be and that is Shoreham Street where it is magnifique where Wednesday ites lay dead at our feet, nah nah nah nah nah nah, well thats what I used to sing anyway!

Time for a poll me thinks, but I already know the outcome

Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly,
have you heard of the North Bank, Highbury.
He said, 'no, I don't think so,
but I've heard of the Shoreham Aggro'

 

[Dkc]

Is it time for this classic from the past to make a comeback too?

"He's only a poor little pig fan
His face is all tattered and torn
He made me feel sick
So I hit him with a brick
And now he don't sing any more"

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

'I would rather be a Packie than a pig' was always a crowd pleaser.

 

[Dkc]

Whatever happened to the grand old tradition of Blades fans infiltrating our opponents' end and starting a punch up? If that were re-introduced we could all sing "Shoreham Aggro, Shoreham Aggro" while pointing to the scuffling fans.

Daft song. It's no brainer really, given the choice.

You missed out the crucual 'Hello, hello'.

There was also the unforgetable:

"Shoreham's here
Shoreham's there
Shoreham's every fucking where
Na na na, na na na, na na"

I like to think that it suggests some Elysian Fields type Nirvana. Sadly I think it was more immediate and meant if you were on Bramall Lane, you had a few big blokes with red and white silk scarves around their wrists about to give you a kicking.

 

[CarlingBlade]

The below song off Ronnie Sharpe's album is very topical at the moment:

There's a boy, a little boy
Throwing acid everywhere
And his name is Richard someone
but the question isn't where

Is it me, or is it you
its hard to tell until it hits

But when it hits you, you will know it
cos it burns a little bit

here is comes
burning through to the blue

drops of acid for me and for you

Your getting burn't again, getting burnt again

Hello, hello

Shoreham Aggro
Shoreham Aggro

United are back

[COME BACK CHED]

We dont carry bottles , we dont carry lead , we only carry hatchets [not jean ] to bury in your head , we are loyal supporters fanatics everyone we all hate Man City Leeds and Everton .

We didn't sing that you lyin' hound.

We* did sing a version to the Scaffold's Lilly the Pink though:

We'll drink drink drink
To Lilly the Pink, the pink the pink
The saviour of, the human race
For she invented
Sulphuric acid
and we'll throw it, in your face.

* The 'we' is a bit of a lie. Heard some scary older Kivo Blades on the top deck of the 219 singing it. Me and my mate giggled but kept our heads down anyway, as you did when you were a young 'un.

For those under 50:-

Whenever I hear these cultural gems of old, I find it difficult to believe that the Kop never won a Grammy....

I remember when men used to propose to their girlfriends at BL and be greeted with " you don't know what you're doing".

Nowadays the poor cow is serenaded by "does she take it up the arse".

Whatever happened to the BBC inspired “Walking down Shoreham Street swinging a chain” ?
