Vintage Songs

[Bernie]

I always wondered what Forest fans would sing for this. Coventry City apparently.

'Goodbye Horse' will always be a classic.

I was to,d they used to sing Aston Villa

.....or "Derby County"?

Old Fred Goodwin had a farm E I E I O
and on that farm he had some pigs E I E I O
With Francis here, Latchford there
Blue and white bastards everywhere
Old Fred Goodwin had a farm E I E I O

It's what a Forest fan told me when asked circa 1970. I doubt it would be 'Aston Villa' as we were two divisions below them and in no way considered to be competition.

 I heard our name used at a number of third division grounds, it used to piss me off.

Inverted sign of respect I reckon - look at the Bitter Baggies - can't stop singing about us!

Under the table you must go

If you catch you wanking
We'll turn you upside down
Come on Barbara
Come on Barbara
Get your knickers own
Oh my what  a rotten song

Skins!

Surreal, on the face of it. I remember Barbara being pointed out to me at the back of the upper Holte.

Vauge Memory about Barbara, before my time

[willywombat]

Always wondered why Barbara, didn't realise it was a real person. Maybe a friend of Poxy Lil

[Dio1874]

We're the villa, we're the villa. We are the champions.

Might be a year or two till we sing it again!!!!!!

Vaguely remember a song to the Boney M tune 'Ma Baker' after a Chelsea fan got run over in the City Centre.

Vaguely remember a song to the Boney M tune 'Ma Baker' after a Chelsea fan got run over in the City Centre.

I only vaguely remember that incident from a bluenose I once met on a bus. He told me he had been to Stamford Bridge and some idiots started singing a song about the dead Chelsea fan and as a result the whole mob got battered.

IIRC The original incident occurred after a Chelsea game at the Blues, not Villa Park.

I remember knowing of that song too, too unpleasant & distasteful to reproduce here. It was a black Chelsea fan living in Brum if memory serves

Here I am, sorry I'm late.

One day as I walked up the steps of the Holte End
As I walked up to the Holte End one day,
I spied a poor Blues fan all cut up in ribbons
All cut up in ribbons and shit on they say.

I said to that Blues fan what have they done to you
And why have they treated you in such a way
He said all I did sir was come up the Holte End
And say Aston Villa were old men at play

The Holte End dain't like it, they rose up to fight it
They kicked him in the bollocks, they kicked him in the head
And now that poor Blues fan is pushing up daisies
He's pushing up daisies he's so fucking dead.

Now let that be a lesson to all of you Blues fans
Who come up the Holte End to sing and to fray
If you say one word against our Aston Villa
Then they'll be the last words that you ever say.

Wow, fantastic. Always wanted to know the full version of that....

[peter75]

There's some say St Andrews is a wonderful place
To us at Villa Park it's a fucking disgrace
They say they've got showers, we know it's not true
They've holes in the roof where the rains leaking through..

Sorry to ask again but roughly what year did this song come out?

[Sunny Villa]

Well it was prior to 75 as I heard it on the train to Wembley
