Just watching the the game & Bolton are singing shit support m'lord to the noses! lol
Must have heard our lot last week!
UTV
-
Well there was only 20,000 noses there which collectively would make as much noise as 4,000 of ours.
-
I think our 'bla bla bla' my Lord chant has caught on and been used by other clubs for a good couple of seasons. Nothing to do with last week. Incidentally I was at Vale Park today and Oxford brought more fans than Blues took to Everton. That's in the Fourth Division.

what were the Utd fans singing last night to the tune of "the city is ours"
I've noticed over the last 25 years Brummie reds always nick Villa songs and port them up the M6

We are the trend setters in terrace songs.

We stole "the city is ours" off Man City.
-
Bolton fans ? How many ?
Their 'support' is down there with the worst in the league !
As for us, a few new songs wouldnt go amiss ....
-
Heard BOlton sing the song a couple of months back at Blackburn.

To be fair Oxford have a pretty good away fan base
Iv seen carlisle bring more down to Cheltenham on a friday night in league 1 than Blose to Everton though, thats gotta be up there?

'we'll do what we want, we'll do what we want, we're man united, we'll do what we want'
blues nicked it off them when they played at OT the other week and have been singing it since. and i heard stoke fans singing it today after their first goal. villa fans also attempted it in the pub before the bolton game, replacing want with like.
horrible song. and cringeworthy for clubs like stoke and especially blues, who regularly take about four hundred away from home. if only a few more 'wanted' to support them..

But quite apt when thousands of them are walking round town abusing shop workers and looking for Sherlock Street. Or was it hundreds? Okay, tens then. In small groups. With their carers.

I think we nicked it off Liverpool who started singing it when Everton were talking of moving out of the city boundaries into Kirkby. Fuck off to Kirkby, the city is ours.
If anyone has the slightest interest.

The only club who should sing it are Manchester United. Because with them, it's true.

All I was thinking watching that yesterday is some of those bolton fans might actually turn up for away games in the league now given they only bring about 500k to Vp most seasons!

Thats one hek of an away following!
-
Bolton are a small club competing for fan numbers with some of Europes biggest clubs who are within twenty miles of their ground, their away following is understandable. The excuses we hear for Small Heaths pitiful home crowds are harder to swallow.
-
Who the fuck are Man United ?
Looks like a Manchester final - ManUre v Bolton , watch Bolton become a football hotbed much like Kidderminster did when they went to Wembley ( with respect).

I'm sure no-one cares, but stoke were singing "we'll play how we want", in response to some HOOF noises from west ham. The manure version is massively cringeworthy though, agreed.

My understanding - I was still in the UK then - is that Liverpool appropriated that tune with their "We've won it 5 times" song, which they love to lord over Man U and, to a lesser extent, Chelsea. Man U then riposted with "we've won it twice - and nobody died"(now revised to thrice).
Man City then adopted "the city is ours" lyrics and we acquired it from them. I think the "we'll do what we want" songs are very recent adaptations.
Re the first use, a Man U fan I know claims that they were the first club to use this tune, taunting Man City with "what a waste of council tax, we paid for your ground" back in 2001-2.
-
What tune has that been adapted from? It's starting to annoy me every club having a version of it.

Sloop John B - Beach Boys. Although even they nicked it from a traditional folk song
