Last time I heard that song sung by us was at the Compleat Angler in Norwich, when they were our last away game of the season. (playoffs season?) Loads of smashed saints fans singing that in the sun, quality day on the ****. 1-0 win (Best?)

Wasn't that the first game after Bally passed too?

And just for those who don't know what the hell this thread is all about

 

Watch and be educated ;)

 

 

Love it, 2 parts you wold think would be easy as songs at st marys may have heard bits wrong though:

 

 

I looked over to Woolston,

And what did I see,

coming forth to carry me home,

The old woolston ferry coming towards me,

Coming forth to carry me home.

 

 

On the Woolsten ferry,

It doesn't travel very fast,

It was never built for comfort,

It was built to last.

I sings this every time we get half way across Itchen Bridge, much to the delight of the passengers on the minibus, even printed them some lyrics out. It genuinely get me in the mood for the match and I fear we'd lose our winning streak if I ceased this ritual now, it also fits with Nigel's bus analogy, he told me this to my face.

 

It's a great ditty even though I'd estimate less than half of our support come from that side and even less remember the floating bridges.

 

Love hearing the old heads behind Block 4 giving it an airing every now and then.

Agreed.

 

If we were to get it going, we'd have to do it slowly. So there's no chance of any clapping meaning the board bangers can't speed it up to 100mph.

We tend to have a rendition in Block 42 most matches - even if it only 10-12 of us!

 

Everyone around us likes it, but don't join in!

 

Away matches are different though! Usually get a decent number joining in!

 

At the Posh game I was reminded of the 'tractor' song and we did good rendition of that too!

 

(not at the rear of block 42, I hasten to add!)
