"Those were the days my friend" song

[Didsbury Dave]

"Rangers", "Celtic", "Rangers", "Celtic"
"Swap shap", "Tiswas", "Swap shop", "Tiswas"
"Stockport Blues, we are here, oh-oh, shag your women and drink your beer"
"Helen is a big fat football hooligan"
"Helen helen ring your bell"

"Helen is a big fat football hooligan" lol priceless! well remember that, didn't Heln relocate from the front row of the Platt lane to the Front row of the North stand?

I only remember her in the North Stand

 

[levets]

is this another debate brewing? Edited to read as I know it...

We`ll drink a drink a drink, to Colin THE king THE king THE king
He`s the leader of MAN CITY
He`s the greatest, inside forward
That the worlld...has ever seen

"Leader of our team" was definitely the original verse sung by City fans in the late 60s/early 70s. Stop fucking about with our heritage. ;-)

As I said... I've been wrong before... Oh and I'm probably as old as you, so don't start presuming I'm some JCL..;-)

I keep going over one song but can't remember the words,

the line
"with hammers and hatchets, spanners and ratchets" is in there.

Is it a line from "we will fight fight for City, til we win the football league" ?

anyone? Come on Levets, you seem to remember them all well.

'From the Banks of the river Irwell, to the shores of sicilly,
we will fight fight fight for city, til we win the football league,
to hell with man united, too hell with Liverpool,
we will fight fight for for city, til we win the football league...

Think the hammer and hatchets is part of verse 2 of 'my old man'

" Last night we chased the reds all over the town,

Ooh-We, bovver boots and braces, kicked their fuckin' faces in "

From the song.

My old man said be a city fan

Don't dilly dally on the way

We took the Stretford in half a minute

We took the Kop cause there was no fucker in it

with hammers and hatchets, razors and spanners

don't forget your meat hook on the way

don't dilly dally or we'll fu@king batter you

On your way home.
