The Richard Gough one came from stories from the Scotland squad when they played a friendly at Pittodrie

 

 

[graygo]

Daft one for me was singing, as a spotty 11 year old, "you're gonnae get your effing heads kicked in" to whoever we were up against.

 

Edit: Same tune - "come and have a go if you think you're hard enough"

To Bill Shankley

Have you heard of the mid bank highbury

Shanks said no, I don’t think so

But I’ve heard of the Gorgie Boot Boys🤷‍♂️l‍♂

I've been trying to recall the opening line to this song for ages, love it. I thought it was the west bank Highbury though, no? Whichever it is/was, it should be reinstated.

[Inchgarvie]

When playing Motherwell and wining, remember chanting, “The Wells gone dry” 😂

[Inchgarvie]

Playing Dundee United and chanting,

 

“There’s only one united and that’s a chocolate biscuit” 😂

The version of that one I remember was

 

Oh the Hibs are going down

McNamara is a clown

Gordon Rae is a f****n g**

and Eric Schaedlers 6 foot down

 

Bang Bang

 

When you look at some of these songs. How the heck did folk get away with some of them

 

Remember up at Montrose in the mid 80s after there had been an article about their casuals beating up u Boys Brigade camp 

 

BBs are here

The old ones are the best mate. That’s what really reminds me of Tynie, the old classics👍🏻

Mind when Siuness came to Tynecastle after his wife left him

We're the best team in the town 

Gordon Durie is a clown

Gordon Rae is known to be gay 

Oh the Hibs are going down.

 

Is my recollection!

[PortyBeach]

Mentioned earlier in this thread but I remember the bad days of the later ‘60s/early’70s when we couldn’t buy a win against Hibs and we’d sing “Send the Hibees to Vietnam…Peter Cormack’s a f*****g p**f”. 
We must have felt it eased the pain!

Younger fans might not get the reference to Vietnam which was then clearly viewed as a place to avoid - as was the Dundee Arms (or whatever it’s called now) which bore the Vietnam nickname 😊.

We’re all going to Europe, no one can deny.

With players like Robertson, Craig Levein, Mackay.

Everybody’s happy, Gorgies on a high.

I’ve never heard that sung. What are the words. Or are they proper naughty? 

[baron of ness]

We had joy we had fun we had hibees on the run

But the fun didn't last because the b******* ran to fast.

We threw sticks we threw stones we broke all the b*******bones, but the fun didn't last because the b******* ran to fast.

I mind hearing a couple of horrendous songs in the early 80s Re Johnny Doyle. IIRC he died by electrocuting himself (in his attic)

 

The first one was to the tune of Here We Go "Tommy Burns, Tommy Burns, so does Doyle"

 

The second one I can only mind a line of (I was still at primary school) and was to the tune of "Its My Party & I'll Cry If I Want To" - Its my attic and I'll fry if I want to.
