Portsmouth scouts at the ground last night according to the adver.  Pretty obvious who they are watching in my book.

I can't see him staying here more than a year, two max.  He is way too good for league one level.  It seems as if every team we play against at the moment comments on how good he was which only increases the coverage he gets.

I sat with a mate who is a QPR fan last night and he was impressed with him too.

it would be a massive shame to lose him, but as long as we get lots and lots and lots of money for him and he helps us this season, it would be a plus. we all know he's gonna go, it just depends when, to who, and for how much!

i'm hoping he won't go until the end of the season, we've brought him in from Watford reserves, he's playing like a legend, I do wish the fans would get behind him a bit more though, a song would be nice!

You Can't tackle, Can't tackle, Can't tackle McNamee (Police - Don't stand so close to me).

There is also the McNameeee, hey!,  McNameee - to that Dr Who song tune

McNamee, McNamee
Anthony McNamee
He's 4ft tall,
does it all wi' the ball
Anthony McNamee

to the tune of Let it be...

Mc-Na-Mee, Mc-Na-Mee, Mc-Na-Mee, Mc-Na-Mee,
Macca will destroy you, Mc-Na-Mee

To the Pogues Irish Rover

He's only 4ft tall
he's a wizzard with the ball,
he loves to get those crosses oooooover,
he'll fly down the wing
and he makes the swindon sing
McNamee's the best since our Don Roooogers


(couldn't think of a better ending)

To joy division's Love will tear you apart again (sounds awesome when united do it for giggs)

Mac, Mac will tear you apart, again...
Mac, Mac will tear you apart, again...

Im secretly hoping this turns into the song-fest that was the Kevin Amkawaah (sp) thread!

He loves it here and I can’t see him being to happy sat on the Pompey bench after getting a sniff of the salty glands of first team football.

A lot depends on how consistent he remains but I think we’ll see a another season out of him in league one and then he’ll be off unless were in the Chumpship.

That's my take on it too. we need to go up to keep him.

Macnamee is god.  Sign him on a 40 year contract with no chance of leaving, ever.

As thats unlikley it will be a sad day when he leaves.

Our best player since........ i really dont know when. I'm struggling to think of an STFC player that I've seen who can equal his skill and entertainment level thats for sure

To Break out - Foo Fighters

Mc-Na-meeeeeeeee,
Mc-Na-meeeeeeeee,
he makes full backs look like twaaaaats
full backs look like twaaaats
McNameeeeeeeeee
McNameeeeeeeeee
Full backs look like twats
Full back look like twats
McNamee

got to be

mcnamee, mcnamee running down the wing
mcnamee, mcnamee someehing something else
something something else, something something else
mcnamee, mcnamee, mcnamee

or rip of the viva ronaldo song

Nah we want original not some Man Utd Rip off!!

yea i agree... but its not easy!

i am trying to think of something including the line "better than shaun wright philips" or pele, or maradonna

the Let it Be one is winning for me - I agree Macca was awesome again - if he keeps this up he might even not make the end of the season before someone wants to splash the cash

Indeed fatters, if he keeps his form and stays injury free I can see a bid coming in January.

We'll never keep out best players, name a football league club who can, but least we are in a position to resist the first bid that comes in.

To the "we'll turn the manor ground into a public lavatory"

Who needs Maradona, we got Anthony McNamee,
you can keep a man called Pele, we got Anthony McNamee,
Don't need Wright Phillips or Giggsie, we got Anthony McNamee,
and he plays for Swindon Town!!

repeat...

He has obviously improved on anything he did at Watford, most impressed with him - but that next stage up to Championship is huge, to the Premiership it is enormous.
Macca needs to stay here at least a season to gain match experience and confidence, he's only a youngster, let's hope he receives the right advice and stays put.

I think we'll see offers for him at Xmas.  If were doing well though id like to think he'd stay to see the season out at least.

I like the idea of a man u viva ronaldo song rip off!

Running down the wing, hear the swindon sing
Viva McNamee, Viva McNameee, Viva McNamee
Running down the wing, hear the swindon sing
Viva McNamee, Viva McNameee, Viva McNamee

Have a look on You Tube for Man U fans singing it.  I hate Man Utd but I have to admit they do make up different and original songs.  We generally just rip off other peoples although we are still the only team as far a I know that sings 'do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do FUCK OFF' instead of our team name!

when you find yourselves in times of trouble
needing to score a goal or three
wing the ball out wide to
mcnamee

mcnamee, mcnamee, mcnamee oh mcnameee
like a black ronaldo
mcnameee

There's the winner.

I prefer the more up tempo songs for exciting players, let it be may send some of the senior folk in the Arkells to sleep.  Also not sure how the speeded up, clapping included, "town end" version would sound.

Good lyrics though!

He can play on the left
He can play on the right
That boy Macnamee makes (Team were playing) look shite!
Repeated....

Not the best.

we've got a brand new super left mid
he's called mcnamee
we know that if hes playing we will score two or three
with the crosses flying in
for big bad billy p
we've got a brand new super left mid
he's called mcnamee

(i've got a brand new combine harvester)

Ahh the wurzels.

Now where be that Macca to
I know where he be
He be skinnin your defence
And they be after he
Now they sees he
And he sees they
Buggered if they'll ever get him
With a gurt big trick
he'll knock em down
Macca, he'll have ye

nananananananana
Hows your right back? He's fucked!

To the blackbird song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zbtAxQdZcU

McNamee, McNamee, running down the wing,
McNamee, McNamee, running down the wing,
Feared by the (who ever your playing),
Loved by the reds,
McNamee, McNamee, McNamee.

Complete rip off of Ryan Giggs song but he is the nearest thing to Ryan Giggs we have seen at the CG for a while.

Paaaasss to Macca pon de left hand side
Paaaasss to Macca pon de left hand side

Love it, original, west country themed.  Excellent effort.

All of these are terrible and you all suck.

For a bit of culture (to Ness'un Dorma)

McNamee,
McNamee,
You entertain us weekly,
with your trickery,
You entertain us weekly, your trickery,

We see you flying down the wing,
the clueless full back, don't see a thing,
you cross, we score,
goooooaaaaaaaaalllll to swindon toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooown
to Swindon tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooown
We love you McNaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Firstly, Portsmouth scouts could have been looking at anyone from either team...

secondly, the most obvious and best McNamee song is 'we all dream of a team of McNamees'

Number 1 is McNamee
Number 2 is McNamee
Number 3 is McNamee
Number 4 is McNamee
Number 5 is McNamee
Number 6 is McNamee
Number 7 is McNamee
Number 8 is McNamee
Number 9 is McNamee
Number 10 is McNamee
Number 11 is McNamee
Number 12 is McNamee

we all dream of a team of McNamees
a team of McNamees
a team of McNamees

we all dream of a team of McNamees
a team of McNamees
a team of McNamees

Number 1 is McNamee
....etc
Number 1 is McNamee
Number 1 is McNamee
Number 1 is McNamee
Number 1 is McNamee

Should be changed to Number 1 is Brezovan, Number 5 is Ifil, Number 6 is Kanuka.  He's a bit short for centre back or in goal. ;)

Otherwise I approve of this team of Macnamees.

BEGIN THE CLONING!

In a Eurovision style nil points for DV.  Boooooooooring!!!

It was better than nessum-fucking-dorma Jan.

Simon Cox should be the player in "We all dream of a team of..."

I like the let it be one for Macca.

The old Tartan Army favourite (doh a deer)

Brezovan is number 1
Jackie Smith is number 2
Number 3 Yinka Casal
Jerel Ifil number 5 (the beast)
Lilian Nalis gets the ball
McNamee he runs it all
Simon Cox about to score
and that leads us back to goooooooooooaaaaaaalllllll

Brezovan is number 1.......

Fucking hell Toddie, just being original, experimenting, not really expecting a bunch of pissed up lads in the town end to be singing the old Pavarotti classic mid way through the first half!

To be fair I'd like to see that for comedy purposes. Fucked if I'm starting it though ;)

Its all very well creating these chants but we need a big mouthed fog horn to start them! :D

where is Kinky Tom these days?

I think we all know one or two of those!! ;D

too true! :D

songs set to Mary Poppins numbers please!

Isn't there already a song..something along the lines of (I know it sound boring but it is simple)

Anthony, Anthony Macnamee (repeat to end)

Funny you should say that...

MC-NA-MEE
Were proud to sing your name
McNamee will take the piss again

repeat. 

I'll start it at 'nam if it gets the thumbs up.

I thought they were saving that for Maurice

Maurice Malpas, we're proud to sing your name...

I'm far too busy to make up silly songs.

booooooooooo what are you busy with? if you say baking I will let you off

Yeah do some bakering. And take pictures!

That'll cheer up my day.

Would do but I really am busy. My good friend Ally has come to visit and we are trying to complete Super Mario Galaxy. I'll take some pictures of my purple comet in orbit if you want?

It's got to be Mex's idea from ages ago, to the tune from the Muppet's manamana.

nah your alright thanks though.

was it?

do you think maybe they were there to watch young Morrison?

well they would of left at half time if they were dv

yus DV i reckons twas old Supermarket Morrison as well

is Ally a boy or a girl - I have often wondered that

lets get back to the original post.

Firstly, there were around 10 or 12 scouts there last night from all Divisions so who has actually said that it was Macca being watched?

Secondly, i've heard on more than one occasion that at away games he is an expensive luxury that we can't afford.... He can't do the business away from home.

Now I admit that I haven't seen him at an away game so would anyone care to comment......

Ally's a boy.

He wasn't as effective away from home last season, but to be fair neither was anybody else.

Be interesting to see what happens on Saturday...............

What price would you put on his head if they decided to sell.

i would swap him for willis

Easily upwards of 1 mill.  ;D

Makes me laugh when barry fry said he wanted 5 million for there forward mclean.

if macca continues to perform in the way he has been,then he's going to be snapped up sooner or later.
i dont think he's prem quality because of the lack of a defensive side to his game,and possibly his size.
but i think he'd be comfortable in the championship already.why watford let him go i do not understand?

17 million at least.

What you takin' about, Willis?

Simple song,instead of Alan Mac....say ooh ah Mcmanee,say ooh ah Mcmanee!

Go with that, some chants are just too complicated.

Wouldn't it be great if we could get a Lukas/Tozer type deal for Morrison?

muppets song has to be, a few of us sung it in drs last night. kinky tom you should start it saturday....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YevYBsShxNs

"chim-chiminee chim-chiminee chim chim cheree
 we have a new king his name's McNamee
 chim-chiminee chim-chiminee chim chim cheroo
 you'll be amazed at the things he can do"

To the tune of Waterloo by Abba:

McNamee, number eleven, and he's our king
McNamee, dazzle us with your skills down the wing
McNamee, get to the byeline and cross the ball
McNamee, put it right in there so we can score
whoh-whoh-whoh-whoh
McNamee, put it right in there so we can score

I'll get me coat

The crosses they went in two-by-two OLE OLE
The crosses they went in two-by-two OLE OLE
The crosses they went in two-by-two he's done the right back but he didn't have to
And the crosses all went in cause of Anthony McNamee...

 :no:

That is very good. I like that one. Original too.

As well as Portsmouth both Sheffield United and Norwich City are watching our man Macca very closely.

HE PLAYS ON THE LEFT
HE PLAYS ON THE RIIIIIGHT
THAT BOY MACCA, HE'S MADE TRANMERE (or who ever we're playing) LOOK SHITE

awesome, got my vote!

Nope I'd rather keep him and get some games out of him....

Totally agree, if someone was prepared to offer silly money for either Morrison or Macnamee then it would have to be thought oabout but other than that you want to be keeping your best players if there is any hope of a promotion push

I'd accept a sale (for really good money), and a season long loan back. Chances are if he performs he'll be impossible to keep at the end of the season anyway.

This is, without any shaddow of a doubt, the best song. What are the chances of it taking off though?

I'm sure this just stamps "old bugger" on my forehead but I can't be the only one to have read this and thought "what do you mean like a black Ronaldo, Ronaldo is black you fool....... oh right you mean the new Portugese one".

The new portugese one is nearly black too anyway! god dont you guys read heat magazine or summit?? hes been having WAAAyyy too much sun recently

I would assume that we would have to pay a percentage of anything to watford, as I would be suprised if they let him go without some sort of sell on.

No idea like, but I thought I would throw it into the mix??

Memo to Aidy Boothroyd:

Unless you have a 75% sell on clause, you are a either a knob or have some very very good left wingers.

One way to find out! :D

that is outstanding.

sorry if its been said but i think we should use this one

"we all dream of a team of mcnamees, a team of mcnamees a team of mcnamees"
number 1 mcnamee number 2 mcnamee etc etc etc

It has indeed already been posted but don't feel bad ;)

I think that should definitely be his song.

Maybe we should start at number 2? I couldnt see him making a good goalie.

I'd take 9 McNamee's, a Brezovan and a Cox.

Might just be a bit suspectible to the ball over the top!!!

i told my mate, the other day,
i thought i've seen, the new pele,
so he asked, who is he
he goes by the name of mcnamee,
mcnamee, mcnamee
he goes by the name of mcnamee

Do we still like him?

I've one which involves turnip aliens and cloning. It's not finished yet though.

That is top songage matey! Defintely his song.

Not sure about the black ronaldo line, but it does work.

i take it none of these songs were sung yesterday?

They were, fleetingly. The atmosphere was strange, a fair few songs started up but half the support couldn't be arsed with singing for some reason. Maybe we weren't drunk enough. Or maybe we need a drum.

Michael, go hang your head in shame.  A drum would mean we are as bad as the Franchise! are you part of loud and proud? :)

I was joking about the drum. Honest!

I just thought this morning "he's better than Ronaldo" may be more apt

or 'we don't need ronaldo' - either one works and they're both a bit more pc

Pc footy songs,whatever next!

how about

'doesnt play away'

 :D

thats how i tired it yesterday but failed miserably.

and i swear one of our fans had a drum in the side stand

Yeah one of our fans did have a drum in the side stand.

I like the black Ronaldo bit. It's not racist or 'owt!

we sang that loads in the pub, not sure how many joined in though.

Its a bloody compliment! Nowt wrong with it at all.

might i add the drum was pathetic! Quite glad though...

He didn't actually hit it ever, was too busy with a blimmin bubble machine!

yeah what are those bubblea about, were not west ham. Is it the same bloke? He needs to take a serious look at himself

He was in the Don Rogers Stand v Tranny, fucking bubbles

There was a few of them sat together at the Tranmere game, I presume there family.
One with a drum, one with a bubble machine, another with a dodgy hat.

These people make a mockery of us.  :doh:

What are you people going on about.

If Swindon got to Wembley you would all be on the band wagon
scarves, hats, face paint, dressing up, drums, streamers, horns  etc

need i say any more.

no, no i don't think we would.

ah yeah am sure you would.

either that or you wouldnt go to wembley if swindon got there.

I dont remeber lots of face painting the last 2 times I went,I certainly never have.I dont have a problems with Scarves or Hats though.

Agree with lardy if you had your kids with you are you telling me you wouldt enter the spirit things,if you wouldt then your a right lot of miserable gits.

Supporting a football team has nothing to do with face paint & drums.

I must admit if I took some kids to Wembely with Swindon id probably paint them from Head to Toe Red n White

Of course you would most do,im not saying every match but kids dont get to wembley very often unless you support the big teams,Its something the youngsters want to do because all their mates are doing it,my boy loved it when he had it done against leicester.   

Don't forget the bubble machine!

What would you dress up as? I'd probably dress up as a 19th century prostitute.

 Think you're in the wrong place mate.....the L and P is third forum down on the right.

  I suppose there's an odd couple who might go in for some Adam and the Ants retro

And whats makes you say that, am not telling you to where it am I.
if people want to where it thats up to them and fair play.
Oh and drums do get the crowd going which in turn gets the playlers fired up, what ever you boaring people say about them.

Like i said you would be on the band wagon if swindon got to wembley.

Its a chance to go & support the team to help them win something big.

be loud, be proud, where red

But i go to games already without wearing facepaint or banging a drum. Why should i change if/when we get to wembley?

I'd get face painted up as a zebra.

If we get to wembley can we all go as fancy dress? thats what a real supporter would do

If we got to Wembley, obviously most folks on here would go, but I doubt many (if any) would wear face paint. Apart from Reg, he's a right happy clapper. And drums at football are rubbish

I'd go face painted as a lion and eat you. Or a swallow maybe

a swallow couldnt eat a zebra silly

Yes so do i.
Iam not telling you to change you dont have to where it or bang a drum.
Am saying if people want to where it you shouldnt kept on at them, you sholud let them crack on.
Same as a drum, someone else would take one, so leave them to it.

Im all for people enjoying themselves though. As long as the bloke with a drum stands at least 50 meters away from me i do not mind

Or he has a silent drum, or maybe a drum that can be used with headphones so it doesn't disturb other supporters.

get a druumer in now

Pa-rupper-pum-pum

Where do you sit then and what would you do if it was a woman banging a drum and was within 50 meters of you.

No but it could misdirect the zebra into the "faces painted as lions" section of the crowd. And make a summer

I'd chop her tits off

i would sit there and tut very ferociousley

C'mon

we all know that one swallow does not make a summer


jeeesh !

Thats all very well mate but there a lot of people that dont want one.
i think it works and gets the crowd and playlers fired up.

The drumer that was at the tranmere game has not been back,
OH look what happend, tranmere was the last home game we have won.
Since the Drum stoped coming we have lost our home game.
Any one notice the pattern yet.

:( i did not think of that

tranmere was the last home game that was overcast
tranmere was the last home game i watched superbad before leaving for the match
tranmere was the last home game we had at the start of the season

anyone notice a pattern?

Phil Collins for manager!

eye patch

yeah i notice a pattern with you
that is your a tool,everything i say you have to have the last say
i dont care what you watched b4 the match.
Fact the last game the drum was at we won,we lost all other home games when there was no drum

Fuck off, I hate that cunt!

But all of the things he said are just as true.

Correlation does not imply causality.

Are you seriosly putting forward the suggestion we only win at home when someone has a drum at the match?


hahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahaha

That's all well and good, but does Holby City imply Casualty? Eh? Eh?

I'd imply that bird from casualty.

God your quick aint you.do you sit in the arkells stand.Well thats whats been happening,fact..
you can laugh all you want but its true.

i love you lardy

Malpas is Phil Collins.

Have you considered that maybe the drum and us winning are related, but in a way that you don't expect? Maybe the same thing which effects the dude and makes him decides to bring the drum also makes the team win. That would of course mean that bringing the drum for another reason (ie. thinking it will make us win), will break the relationship between the two events.

You've got to accept that it's a possibility.

Thats should be NSFW.  I dont expect to open a thread to find such a big picture of a cunt.  Which one?  You decide.

Maybe you should buy a drum and take it to the Huddersfield game, lardy.

We'd be in the Prem by now if we had a drum, and Europe if we had a trumpet as well.

FACT!!!

I dread to think how good we could be if we had a bell as well.

Just imagine how good we'd be if the drummer came dressed as a lion?! Why has no-one thought of this before!

But the Lion might get eaten by a Swallow, duh!

I think you've bullied lardy away now.

We'd certainly batter Newcastle, Notts County and Juve

We should all go out and by a triangle, and bring them to matches, would sound ace!

Okay if i got hold of one and bring it to the huddersfield game then where is the best place in the ground for it to go, Arkells is a waste of time, town end or don rogers.

Stratton Bank.

Salvation Army, Loud and Proud - we'd be unstoppable

[url width=640 height=480]http://yelnick.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/salvation_army_1.jpg[/url]

hmmmm not enough facepaint

Town end, I sit in the Don Rogers and as advice
a) You'd probably cause several heart attacks to the old and infirm that sit around me,
b) I would't think the NHS provide a 'drum out of anus' operation free of charge ;)

I doubt you'd get away with a drum in the town end. Swindon fans just don't like them.

Perhaps if you dressed as a zebra?

Tranmere was also co-incidently the last home game where the team came here and played 4-3-3, the last home game we didnt boo the players and also co-incidently the last team to have BAS FUCKING SAVAGE upfront....

If only every team came here playing 4-3-3 with BAS FUCKING SAVAGE upfront we'd be well away....

go dressed as a manatee!!!!

Town End, obviously. Get your mates to get some drums as well, get a right good noise going.

But a triangle only has three points.....

Bring a snare drum and play it when the oppo keepers about to take a goal kick. will give the willies

Should be dressed as a chicken and play the drum with their foot

I must say I am all for this idea.

I also think shouting "DIE" just before he kicks the ball might scare him, but would also probably be too extreme.

I shouted

OOOOOOOoooooooooooooh DIE YOU COCKSUCKER AAAH!!!!

Like it......

I just want to double check.

Are we shouting this at our goal keeper or the oppositions goal keeper?

Thanks.

That's more than we've had at home lately.

Don't forget we need a train whistle ...

 :tomato:

Im allergic to facepaints  :(

I'm allergic to drums at football...

But it certainly makes your evening.

Apparently, at Leyton Orient vs Leicester, when Leicester scored a bloke took out a plastic donkey's head an put it to celebrate...I think I should do that...I also suspect no-one else does...

you lot are so cliquey.

poor lardy.

So you'll be the one with the drum next time then axs?

maybe two.

in fact, i might go for the full-on one man band kit.

Harmonica?

obligatory.

Now your just being silly you would have to pay for an extra seat..

ok, guess i'll not bother.

as long as you realise that it means we'll lose again. lardy said so.

Now that's credible football fan kit!

I'd need lots of badges too.

not forgetting face paint...

of course, and some kind of crazy hat.

I read that as badgers.

It should be badgers.

a crazy badger hat?

No, as your entourage, like an ancient mythical hero, but instead of a pack of snarling lions on chains as leads, you have a pack of snarling badgers on chains.

or TEFers on unicycles.

No Home Win again and no drum.
pattern, no course not. :doh:

Fuck off lard ass

You're actually serious are'nt you?

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

bring a fucking drum then dickhead.

Whats the point you people only moan dont yah

I wont if we bloody win.

I'll hail you as a messiah!

Chippenham fans had a drum today but got told by the old bill to stop banging it because the neighbours were complaining.

They were playing in Ashford which is under Heathrow flightpath.

Also, if any cunt brings a drum and sits next to me it will be wrapped round there head.

Franchise fan with a drum got a decent sized boo in the Merlin before the game.

why was there an Franchise fan in the merlin

Their match was on the telly you prat.

Didnt know that, hence the asking!

In that case I apologize, this forum has left me unable to distinguish between a question and a smarky comment.

Try reading thisis tonight.

Jeffreys posting all sorts i think

you should have said hello nemo, there was loads of TEFers in there, and yes, we boo'd.

"Excuse me, are you from the Town End Forum?"

yes, that'd do it.

you could play a fun game of 'guess the forum nerds', it'd be ace fun

Nothing like a fun game of match the person to the poster. I'd probably be looking for people who look like their avatars, which would make identifying most of you a touch tricky.

leggett looks exactly like his.

FACT

Is Lardy real?

If he is he's fucking ace.To put that sort of faith into Drums is brilliant. its like putting faith into wearing the same underwear to each game.Lardy for manager!!!

I have had enough now. Malpas simply has to go. Not good enough at the mo.

Lardy leaves ground with no broken limbs - we lose   Coincidence ?, what do we do now?

Its because it was sunny again!! Im telling you.

Cloudy home game = we win
Sunny home game = We lose

Co-incidence?

It's because we're shit.

We play like cunts = We lose

We don't play like cunts = We win.

Coincidence? You decide..

I love Angry Herthab
