Football Songs.

The T.V. is on in the background and 60,000 Celtic fans are singing "You'll Never Walk Alone". I hate these sentimental, downbeat  songs. I'd like to hear them sing "Nellie The Elephant". Or "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair".

My own adopted home team's 'choir' still enjoy regular renditions of "We're Blue, we're white - we're f****** dynamite, Super Saints, Super Sa-a-aints"...to the tune of...er...well, there's not really a tune, but it brings a tear to the eye.
I apologise, in advance.

I've never actually known of any public house called "The Black", but I often hear football fans singing songs asking who the Bar-Steward in there is.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

The Celtic and Man United fans have an alliance of sorts, but when they play a friendly, a testimonial, for instance, the Celtic fans do insist on singing You'll Never Walk Alone, which really pees the United fans off, because it's a Liverpool song.
Yet the Celtic fans keep doing it.

Could they just be thick, d'you think?

I imagine it pees Rodgers and Hammerstein off even more. Liverpool song indeed.  ::)

Rogers and Hammerstein wrote You'll Never Walk Alone! - I thought it was Gerry and the Pacemakers.

Wasn't that "Freddy and the Flintstones"?
