I can't remember the words. Aldridge was an ex-Oxford footballer who signed on loan to Rushden while with Blackpool. He was involved in a road accident while returning from one of their games and died shortly after. Oxford fans were, understandably, shocked and some of ours decided to 'celebrate' the event in song. (Those same fans were, I expect, in tears following Jimmy Davis' tragic death in similar circumstances.)
Oh, not good that.
I knew that Aldridge was an ex-scummer but until now I didn't know that he died. Either way what a bunch of f'in numpties for singing that.
I must admit to singing the dambusters theme tune whilst playing Manure on time. Maybe my being young and foolish at the time could excuse me but I remember well that the majority of those singing it where grown adults, the adolescents such as my self where pretty much just following their lead really.
The Manure fans at the time seemed a tad shocked at the song, it seemed funny at the time but not now that I look back on it.
Had I been a few years older at the time then I would have gladly informed them of what cocks they where being (Or at least not sing along with them).
