soccer ground songs

[HOSE B ROMERO]

Just watching the Sheffield derby (fantastic atmosphere by the way) being played at Hillsborough and the crowd is singing Hi Ho Silver Lining by Jeff Beck before the game which i guess is a tradition. Off the top of my head:

Ynwa -gerry and the pacemakers - liverpool
theme from local hero - dire straits - newcastle
glad all over - dave clark 5 - palace
tubthumping - chumbawumba - bolton (?)


What others are there?

The Liquidator always starts the Bridge games. Parklife is also played a lot, Damon Albarn is a big Chelsea fan.

Didn't know that. Parklife's a ripper.

Thanks Lemmon, i'd never heard of this one so just watched some youtube videos. Love it. Great lyrics! Could just imagine Stephen Fry on the terraces at Yarrow rd belting this one out.

Hibs Sunshine on Leith

Google Hibs Sunshine on Leith 2016 Scottish FA Cup.

It's spine tingling. Martin Flanagan refers to it in "A Wink From the Universe"

"While the Chief
Put's Sunshine on Leith"

C'mon the cabbage and ribs.

We borrowed one that used to apply to Paul Gascoine and sing "Who ate all the pies?" to Scott Cummings when he was still playing.

Noticed Wolves come out to Slade's 'Cum on Feel the Noize'. The band was from wolverhampton so totally appropriate and a cracking song.

It's a beauty, isn't it. I stumbled across the 2016 post game celebrations during lockdown, reflected on the significance of 2016 to underdogs. See Below. Any footy club that has a 114 year drought emphasises the regularity with which the 'Dogs win premierships. Here's a list of the mainly football codes' drought breakers of 2016.

13 years. Welsh Rugby Challenge. [i]Llandovery[i]

15 years. Euro Cup. [i]Portugal[i/i] Its first.

21 years. Super Rugby Cup. Wellington Hurricanes. Its first.

46 years. NBA Championship. Cleveland Cavaliers. Its first

49 years. NRL Premiership. Cronulla Its first

54 years. Ranji Cup. Sri Lanka Cricket. Tamil Nadu

62 years. AFL Premiership. Bulldogs.

108 Years. World Series. US Baseball. Chicago Cubs.

109 years. English Premier League. Leicester City. Its first

114 Years. Scottish Cup. Hibernian.

How could you not write to Hibs, pony up and buy a shirt ?
