Old songs

[blue aura]

I always liked the Chelsea song.....blue is the colour.

We should nick it

That's one step beyond.

I'm sure you are right, but back in the day there was no "copyright" on footy songs, or shame related to pinching someone else's. After all, the Kippax did use to sing You'll Never Walk Alone.

The idea that songs are "reserved" for one team is a modern concept.

Talking of Everton reminds me of "You can stick your fucking toffees up your arse." sung at the girls who used to distribute toffees at Everton matches - at one time used to go round Maine Road for the "away" fixture of their team,hence the song.

I remember when the Kippax sang YNWA regularly. Quite a few other fans sang it as well back in the day. I also remember the toffee woman at Everton, and we sang that song quite a few times at Goodison.

 

[Jordie]

That's one step beyond.

We've nicked that one a couple of times.

I never felt more like twatting a red,
with a baseball bat around the back of the head,
Oh City...
You got me twatting a red.

 

[DTKOAG]

If your standing on the corner with a red scarf round your neck, City boys will come and get you and will break your fooking neck.. Nah nah nah

Ryan giggs, Ryan giggs cheated on his wife
Ryan giggs, Ryan giggs cheated on his wife,
She took it up the shitter.
Now it's all on twitter.
Ryan giggs, Ryan giggs, Ryan giggs.
It was sung at the pub before the league match at Bolton ,down Lostock Road near the ground. I think it was put in the press on the Friday that he'd been shagging his brothers wife.

David Oldfield walks on water nana nana na, na nana na

I heard it once, honest :-)

 

[Indaparkside]

Maine stand give us a wave

 

[blueday]

For me, the one to bring back is

You are my City, my only City
you make me happy, when skies are grey...

especially with the na na na at the end

Close second would be

Hello, hello, we are the City boys...

I agree. Its actually the start of the Viking chant (from the film The Vikings - I've written about it in Manchester City Folklore) and later evolved into The Best Team In The Land and All the World. The old Ccccccciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttyyyyyyyyy would go on for ages with the initial C being held for so long until it broke into the end bit. Dead easy chant and unique to us. Created by fans in 1976-77 season.

Started up usually when we got a corner

Over to fellow Blue Mooners.... Was it flick knives or hammers?

Hammers. 100%

What were the words to that one we used to sing when the coppers marched around the pitch ? 1980- 83 ish.

‘Harry Roberts’?

 

[levets]

Wasn’t it an old laurel and hardy theme or something. Ne na de na, ne na de na, na na na na.... or something like that.

Keystone cops theme

 

[BufordUSABlue]

Keystone cops theme

Benny Hill theme

 

[levets]

That's one step beyond.

What? ‘Blue is the colour’ is Chelsea’s theme tune. It was a Big hit in the charts too.

 

[AJ71]

Benny Hill theme

I remember it as Laurel and Hardy

I was kidding.. I said that it was "one step beyond as we've played it after spanking Chelsea a couple of times at home, much to their annoyance. :)
