Just To Tell You Once Again,

Who's Bad . . .

Apols to Johnny cash

 

It began, with the return of Lowe

It turned into a tale of woe

We started off with Jan

He never was the man

 

Results were crap, we were completely in the mire

The overdraft grew, but we couldn't find a buyer

We're going down down down

but Lowe got fired, Lowe got fired

 

The fans, did their best

We started to protest

Lowe continued with the Dutch

It was, just too much

 

To raise some cash, we offloaded Nathan Dyer

Lowe said it's not his fault, but he's a ****ing liar

We're going down down down

at least Lowe got fired, Lowe got fired

This is a brilliant idea and one of the best threads for a while.

 

Southampton have been a sick football club for a long time now. I think that in business schools across the land, 'the Southampton model' will be used to warn students how badly things can go wrong when attempting to upgrade from a small to a medium sized operation. And I'm sorry to say that I wouldn't be at all surprised if the reputation of Saints fans has also been dragged down by recent events.

 

But before we shuffle pathetically out of the championship, we can show the world (well, the Burnley fans at least) that we're big enough to laugh at ourselves and the mess that we're in. This would be a step in the right direction (for a change) and it would help take the edge off what is going to be a sour end to an already humiliating season.

 

How do Saints want to be remembered by the rest of the Championship, having a sing-song, a laugh and making the best of a really sh1tty situation, or hurling personal abuse at the young players/coaching staff and fighting amongst ourselves?

 

We can beat this sh1t! :D

 

 

League one!

League one!

The best League in the world!

Good post. Quite agree!

 

ON THE WOOLSTON FERRY,

IT DOESN'T TRAVEL VERY FAST,

IT WAS NEVER BUILT FOR COMFORT,

IT WAS BUILT TO LAST

 

I doubt many will know the words to any of the verses, but to keep singing the chorus would be just fine.

 

Also, good idea! :) :smt023

The Woolston Ferry

I looked over Woolston and what did I see

Coming for to carry me home?

That old Woolston Ferry coming towards me,

Coming for to carry me home . . .

 

If you're ever out in Sholing

And you want to go to town

Don't you go via Bitterne

That's the long way round

Take a trip across the ferry

Take a trip across the sea

And if you're a pedestrian, you can go for free . . .

 

On the Woolston Ferry

It doesn't travel very fast

It was never built for comfort

It was built to last

 

On two steel hauses

Across the river it'll creep

The steel glints in the sunlight

And flops back into the deep

And from the deck of the ferry

What a wonderful sight

All they shipwrights grafting

At Thorneycrofts on the right

 

On the Woolston Ferry

It doesn't travel very fast

It was never built for comfort

It was built to last

 

Go and see Lowry's painting

In the art gallery

Of this wonderful relic of a past centruy

When I sing of its construction

You'll be surprised to learn

That the bow going one way

Coming back becomes the stern!

 

On the Woolston Ferry

It doesn't travel very fast

It was never built for comfort

It was built to last

 

See the weather-beaten captain

With his weather-beaten tan

He don't wear no gold braid

He's a corporation man

And the captains of the ferry

They're a dying race

Cos there ain't no ex-tram drivers

To go and take their place

 

On the Woolston Ferry

It doesn't travel very fast

It was never built for comfort

It was built to last

 

But the floating bridge has had it

They say it's got to go

Cos the motorists don't like it

At 15p a throw

So they build a bridge of concrete

Very modern, very high

But every time I use it

I look down on either side . . .

Could you see us singing the whole song at a game? No.

 

The chorus would do ;). If, later into next season it's starting to catch on, maybe we could alternate the chorus with the first verse (via Bitterne, long one round, one)

The Football League

Is upside down

The Football League is upside down

 

We're going up with the Charlton

The Football League is upside down.

 

To the tune of OWTS

 

This is Genius.

 

For a bit of variety you could also do this to the tune of Fratton Park is falling down..

 

The Championship is upside down, upside down, upside down

The Championship is upside down, we're going up with Charlton!

or

You're going down with Wolves!

 

 

 

Here's my meager effort, to the tune of Billy Jean

 

Rupert Lowe is not our owner

hes just some clown who ran off with our funds

now we're bottom of league one

(we're on minus ten, its happening again!)

 

or a more general chant...

 

we were here when -

we were here when -

we were here when we were good

we - were - here - when - we - were - good!

"We've got the best catering in the land

We've got the best catering in the land

We've got the best catering in the land

The best catering in the land"

 

I can't think of much else positive now and we might not even have the catering next season so now's possibly your last chance to praise the thing we have all most appreciated and attended games for.

Down with a whimper,

we're going down with a whimper,

down with a whimper.

We're goin' down with a whimper ........ ssssshhhhhhhhhh!

 

This should have been sung (quietly) at the Charlton and Sheff Weds games.

 

I hope people are going to give the players some grief on Saturday; it's six days on I'm still not over the pitiful surrender I saw at Hillsborough last week.

 

Fecking players

Fecking manager

Fecking Burley

Fecking Lowe

Feck everybody!

 

Another relegation struggle next season as well then .....

Really hope it's only positive/humorous songs saturday. Things are ****, but fighting and moaning isn't the answer right now.

 

would just like 32,000 people singing we shall not be moved, OWTS and some old classic songs for former players etc., incase it is our last game.

 

 

100% agree. May as well just be positive about it for now.

 

I'm up for simply either 90 minutes of pure OWTS, 90 minutes of 'We shall not be moved' or 'we'll never die'.
