Songs that never came over from Ayresome Park to the Riverside

[Cress]

Chick chick chick chick chicken George
Roots roots roots to the tune of shoot
for Clyde Best etc.

 

[Cress]

Skinheads, skinheads everywhere got big boots and they got no hair
Is it hot or is it cold?

Can't remember the rest..

 

[NorthumberlandBoro]

We all hate Leeds and Leeds.....

 

[Nosmo-King]

We’ll hang the referee from the stand
My old man said be a Boro fan
It’s a long way to the station, it’s a long way to run

 

[Colin Warnek]

A rousing rendition of ' you're gonna get your fuc**n heads kicked in' at the Riverside would bring a tear to the eye.

 

[NorthumberlandBoro]

Haha ,classic 70's.
I was in the boys end for that one.

 

[Borobuddah]

“You’ll never take the Holgate “

 

[Craggyjohn]

"Middlesbrough" clap clap clap
"Middlesbrough" clap clap clap

 

[Rofesleg]

Jeez that was some team.
Any one of them would improve our current team.

 

[Redlips]

in summary all of the songs with extreme violence have gone

 

[Nobby_Barnes]

"All the Geordies went to Rome" isn't sung anymore certainly at home games...

 

[morrissey]

Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly...

"Said Bertie Mee to Bill Shankly.. "

Clyde Best had been long gone before Roots aired in the UK.

"Said Bertie Mee to Bill Shankly.. "

May well have been originally, but mainly sung the other way since!

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Yorkshire Yorkshire Yorkshire

They also shouted 'soft Yorkshire b,ast.ard' at injured Leeds/SheffU etc players

 

[TeessideCleveland]

They used to sing 'Howay the lads howay the lads the lads howay' - sometimes a few would sing to the same tune 'they're Geordie songs...' etc

 

[TeessideCleveland]

The Laurel and Hardy theme tune when police walked past

I don't know what came over me (alcohol probably) but I whistled it when passing a few coppers late one evening after being in the town. I was given a load of verbal abuse by them - but nothing else!!

 

[Erimus11]

Half of the Boro Boot Boys were either at the station or on the way down there before Coventry had made it 4-3 !

 

[TeessideCleveland]

I remember when after a bald physio had treated an injured player they were singing to the 'Brown Girl In The Ring' tune 'Baldy on the bench la la la la la, there's a baldy on the bench la la la la la la'
The next time he'd come on they sang it as he went past The Holgate they sang it and he jokingly put his kitbag on top of his head

Ah my mistake. Best left West Ham in ‘76; Roots aired in ‘77
I must be remembering another black player for West Ham
