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

[Jon Bon II]

Sadly we have quite a few songs harking back to the 70's and 80's that allude to physical violence against Wednesday fans.

Sadly? Sadly?? Did you say 'sadly'...?

 

[Wapping Blade]

We've travelled far and wide, London to merseyside but there is only one place we want to be, and that is Shoreham street , where it is magnifique , and where the *******ites lay dead at our feet na na na nar na .

I’m cycling on Shoreham St every week at the moment and sing that every time

 

[Dkc]

Will you come to Bramall Lane? Whoah-oh-whoah-ho
Will you come to Bramall Lane? No-oh no-oh
Will you come to Bramall Lane?
Get an hatchet in your brain
Whoah-oh whoahoa-a-ho.

 

[I should coco]

Will you come to Bramall Lane? Whoah-oh-whoah-ho
Will you come to Bramall Lane? No-oh no-oh
Will you come to Bramall Lane?
Get an hatchet in your brain
Whoah-oh whoahoa-a-ho.

Another Clash link!

An old tune, but most will know the Clash's superb 'English Civil War':

Great song but I think "Will you come to Bramall Lane" and "Shoreham Boys" are based on summat else - Camptown Races?

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?

***SNOWFLAKE ALERT***

 

[Boxer Blade]

An old one was when the other teams fans started singing and our response was, "I hear the sound of distant bums, over there, over there, and do they smell, like fuckin ell,over there, over there, Jim Reeves stole it and made distant drums .

And quite right too. Anyway:

'Alan Brown, Alan Brown,
Is it true what Ritchie says
your iron lung
has broken down?' (To the tune of Keith West's 'Excerpt from a Teenage Opera'.)

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

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.

Ah but they did! (Not me, naturally). The 'acid' song was sung to the tune of Leapy Lee's 'Little Arrows'.

Great song but I think "Will you come to Bramall Lane" and "Shoreham Boys" are based on summat else - Camptown Races?

'Will you come to Bramall Lane?' is surely based on 'Bread of Heaven? (To the tune of 'You're not fit to wipe my arse' )

Who can put the words to this little ditty.

 

[grafikhaus]

Ay, ya, yay yay! Hodgy is better than Yashin,
and (whoever was in vogue at the time) is better Eusebio,
and (whoever we were playing) is in for a thrashing.

 

[Jonboy60]

Ay, ya, yay yay! Hodgy is better than Yashin,
and (whoever was in vogue at the time) is better Eusebio,
and (whoever we were playing) is in for a thrashing.

At the time, I think I sang, John Tudor is better than Eusebio.

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

“When Tudor come marching on the pitch hurrah, hurrah, when Tudor come marching on the pitch hurrah, hurrah, the ball was hit and that was it, the Wednesday fans were in the shit and we all went mad when Tudor came marching on”. One of my departed Dads favourites as he ripped the piss out of his two Wednesday brothers on the bus back to Parson Cross due to the last minute winner.

 

[Yewsman]

Ay, ya, yay yay! Hodgy is better than Yashin,

I sang it to “mick Jones is better than Eusebio”

When Tudor was on the football pitch HB?

 

[Boxer Blade]

When Tudor was on the football pitch HB?

Also I seemto remember the ball was hit and that was it Shoreham Street was in a fit

 

[boo radley]

My sista Belita, she passed her excreata ........

 

[Yewsman]

When Tudor was on the football pitch HB?

Yes.

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Yes.

Dunno lol!! Song was just how my Dad would sing it!

 

[SHOREHAMST.com]

The song that inspired the brand - Shoreham St. Magnifique.

I have recently heard the odd rendition of “Fuck ‘em all” from the back of the Kop which always makes me chuckle. Reminds me of Sam Kydd (Mick Kinneston) that one as he was always singing it on Shred Tours.

 

[Boxer Blade]

Dunno lol!! Song was just how my Dad would sing it!

Looking at your dad and his brother whatever you say is ok with me

 

[TCsLoveChild]

Flecky, Norwood and Wednesday would fit very nicely in those gaps UTB

 

[Rodley]

With your iron lung and your legs of plastic...

 

[Cerberus Blade]

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".

and the way things are going, this won't even be posed as a question soon.

fuck that .. pig fans in town is a masterpiece and exclusive to us

 

[Newbury Blade]

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

Along with that other classic, “you’re going home in a fuckin ambulance”. Happy, innocent days of yore!

 

[LS16Blade]

And quite right too. Anyway:

'Alan Brown, Alan Brown,
Is it true what Ritchie says
your iron lung
has broken down?' (To the tune of Keith West's 'Excerpt from a Teenage Opera'.)

To the same tune, the heartfelt lament to a hero sold to finance the building of the Bramall Lane stand...

"Michael Jones, Michael Jones
Is it true what Dick Wragg says,
'You won't come back'?
Oh no-oooooo"

 

[Ivanhoe]

My sista Belita, she passed her excreata ........

Or a version I heard “my sister Belinda, she pissed out the window”.

 

[GrayBlade]

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

UTB

This is the song FB. Good owd Edith

 

[Jonboy60]

Was this Eskimos bird, did she get this song going on the kop.
