I agree, Spurs fans rendition of it is plain annoying, I've turned games off rather than listen to their over the top version of it. I remember even in the early 80s when we were crap and crowds had plummeted, if we were winning and we sang that song it still sounded superb.

Yes, difficult to put into words if you haven't witnessed it, the sound it made was absolutely unique and was a "being there" moment to hear it, because it was impossible to describe to those that weren't.

In my Lever End years, this was led by a lad called Tony Brooks: Wayyohhh, (crowd copies) Wayyohhh, (crowd copies) Gooba, gooba, gooba (crowd copies) Gooba, gooba, gooba (crowd copies) Hahahaha (crowd copies) Hahahaha (crowd copies) Then is started again with Wayoh. A Lever End classic. I can remember a few opposing mobs just standing and staring and appearing to shit themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Hunt Off Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) We are the Lever End & we are round the bend We are the greatest team the world has ever seen We are the boys in white & if you want to fight Come over this side! Anyone remember that one?,not sure what the tune is. There's a crack up in the ceiling & the Stretford End is leaking Georgie Best has got no money , he only plays because he's funny What are we living for ? To see United in division four! To the tune of Dead End Street. Jingle Bells Stepney smells Crerands on the booze Nobby Stiles has got no teeth & united always lose . We wished. As he lay on the ground slowly dying With the blood pouring out of his head As he lay on the ground slowly dying These were the last words he said Bolton Bolton Wanderers uja! uja! There's actually a ton of songs but not many originals.Most copies from other teams fans. Have to say Inter Milan at Parkhead were excellently loud but organised to the nth degree with chant leaders at the front.Made 2k sound like 10k. Apart from Brum have to take 1st prize at the Reebock. Edited January 4, 2021 by Take Hunt Off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, that night match when Juke won it for them, was the best away support I've seen at the Reebok They never, stopped singing, never bothered having a go at us. They just belted the songs out and got behind their team for 90 minutes. Respect tbf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 10 hours ago, Mr Grey said: 🎶 Your going home in a St John's Ambulance 🎶 🚑 Was always favourite of mine 😁 That's just reminded me of the Lever End in 83-84, the one year it was used for singing after being seated. It only lasted a few months but there were some cracking characters in there. An opposing injured player would be carried or stretchered off around the cycle track, these days they get a sympathetic round of applause from home fans. Not then. To the tune of "Those were the days my friend" - "We hope your balls drop off, we hope your balls drop off" while they were wheeled slowly in front of us. I'd never heard it before or since and the originality and childishness of it just adds to the amusement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted January 4, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2021 Every time an opposition player went down injured I remember the Paddock chanting, 'We hope your balls drop off We hope your balls drop off We hope your balls We hope your balls drop off' (this was when we had gone really shit, a bit like now) Remember as a kid the Goober Goober Goober chant, there's a guy in the barmy army at cricket does a similar thing.

Reminded me of another Lever End anti DMB classic: His name is Georgie Best and he's a fucking big disgrace, Runs down the wing in knickers made of lace, And when he scores a goal, he does a little twirl And curtseys to the Stretford End just like a little girl Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na................
