What the hell was the wheelbarrow song all about ? Heard it for the first time at Highbury in the City end and thought I was still in an alcohol induced parallel universe from the night before

One of my favourite songs from about ten years ago was
Away, away, away,
We'll follow the City away,
No matter how far,
Train or by car,
We'll follow the City away.

Simple, effective and kept going for a few minutes. Was brilliant for one season and then stopped.

We still sing that occasionally

Haven’t heard for a while but always enjoyed the “shhhhh” until the away fans gave us a song then ironic cheers. I’m fact about half my enjoyment of live football comes from ironic cheers come to think of it.

A lone wolf whistle after a shocking miss never fails to raise a smile as well

I have a vague recollection of being in the west terrace and a couple of the women who worked in the bar (or somewhere) would walk along the side of the pitch, behind the goal. every match with about 10 mins to go. they’d get a load of ‘good humoured’ abuse…”who ate all the pies” etc without fail.
Then final game of the season they got a standing ovation.

I might have dreamt it all.

Sang at opposition keepers (i always remember it being sung at Thomas Mhyre most of all)

Mhyre is his name,
Myhre is his name,
He stinks of piss he's got no mates,
Mhyre is his name.

That sounds familiar tbh Terry, I don't think you've imagined it.

Going back to the JH days who remembers the two fans at away matches who used to stand on the perimeter wall facing the fans with their scarves round their heads like a turban and do a Hokus pokus Jimmy Hill chant false beards and all and had the fans doing allah style salutes.

And the little fella I think his name was Reg with a rasping loud voice, who used to get on a couple of lads shoulders always just before kick-off shouting give me a c, give me an o, give me a v and the whole fans would v sign the nearest coppers, when Coventry was spelt at the end the fans would chant City, City and end with the Sky Blue song also at away game.
Good old days.

Been some good ones from the oppo over the years too. After hearing “your ground’s too big for you” week after week from every away crowd I thought Wolves’ alternative was pretty clever;

“They're here, they’re there, they’re every fucking where empty seats, empty seats”

He's here, he's there, he's every fucking where, Ernie Hunt, Ernie Hunt.

When we were asked to keep it clean for T. V.

“He’s here
He’s there
He’s every fuckin’ where Ernie Hunt”

Was changed to
“He’s here
He’s there
We’re not allowed to swear”

I remember being at Wembley for the cup final, and the players came out bout an hour before the game for a walk on the pitch, and were greeted by 40k City faithful singing "there's only one Brian Borrows" in honour of our injured right back,

the players instantly responded by applauding the SBA

I swear that was the moment I knew we would win the cup.

I still get a stiffy now thinking about it.

............ I'll be back in a minute!

I remember Cov fans giving Oldham fans in the pen on the Kop the old...

"Did you come in a taxi?" ...routine.

It did make me chuckle when they retorted....

"We came down on our skateboard."

I also remember Cyril Regis in his West Brom days having a banana chucked at him from the West End just before a WBA corner.

He nonchalantly bent over scooped it up, peeled it and ate it. Then gave the West End the thumbs up.

we also sang in bad taste "Kill Kill jimmy hill"
and when the ITV cameras came "Jimmy hill and BBC"
Linked to that and the cup run " Are you watching jimmy greaves"
then the leicester song "your mums your dad, your dads your mum, you're interbred and you're leicester scum"

I used to enjoy the mass whistling of the Laurel and Hardy theme tune as the old bill walked in front of the West End.

Also, whatever happened to the second verse of 'In our Coventry homes'?

i.e.
you look in the dustbin for something to eat,
you find a dead dog and you think its a treat
in your (insert away town/city) homes

For the scoucers

In your Liverpool slums,
You look in the dustbin for something to eat,
You find a dead rat and you think it's a treat,
In your Liverpool slums,

In your Liverpool slums,
You s**t on the carpet, you p**s in the bath,
You finger your grandma, and think its a laugh,
In your Liverpool slums,

In your Liverpool slums,
You speak in an accent exceedingly rare,
You wear a pink tracksuit and have curly hair,
In your Liverpool slums,

In your Liverpool slums,
Your mum's on the game and your dad's in the nick,
You can't get a job 'cos you're too f***ing thick,
In your Liverpool slums

It was a Liverpool song we nicked. The Liverpool fans used to sing that verse back to us
