[Albion] Colin Harvey asked Bill Skankly

[Jack Straw]

#'Cos Jeremy, the Sugar Puff Bear,
has bought some boots and cropped his hair...

 

[shingle]

Colin Harvey asked Bill Shankly if he'd heard of the North Bank Highbury, Shanks says no I dont think so, but I've heard of the Brighton North Stand. La La La La , la la la al etc , and as Jack Straw says ..... Cue the surge.

Is my recollection

None compares to the immortal lines of Go Left

"If you see a Palace fan, run him over in your van"

The sheer poetic simplicity of it...

Would probably get you banned in the future. You can't even advocate murder now without someone getting upset.

From the banks of the river Mersey to the shores of Sicily,
We’re gonna fight fight fight for the Albion ,
Till we win division 3,
To a hell with Aston Villa to hell with Notts County,
We’re gonna fight fight fight the Albion to we win division three.

Celery, celery....! One for the teenagers.

Another from that era

Oh we don't carry shotguns
And we don't carry lead
We only carry hatchets to bury in their heads
We're the heroes on the North Stand
Fanatics every one
We all hate Aston Villa
And Bournemouth, Bournemouth, Bournemouth

I miss singing football songs

I think the original version was sung by Citeh, according to my Man City supporting mate in the late 70's who sang it regularly after a few beers

Said Bertie Mee to Joe Harvey
Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?
No, said Joe, I don't think so
But I've heard of the Kippax, Maine Road.

FFS, every club did it. "But I've heard of the Burnley Longside" etc etc

But who sang it first?

But who sang it first?

I don't know, and I very much doubt your City supporting mate knows either.
