In reply to the other thread.

Taaaaaaaaaaylooooooooooorrrrrrr - last season was brilliant, this season shite (way too fast).

Used to love the Olé Olé Olé Olé , Swindon Town, Swindon Town.....

Eyes right skin back tight, get your knickers down - was also a favourite at the time.

TEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAA   TOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWELLLLLL

I used to enjoy the old songs of player faves ...

OOOH Shaun Taylor and repeat
Ohhhh Colin Colin .... Colin Colin Colin Colin Calderwood and repeat
Ring a ding a ding ... Martin Ling
Walking in a Finney Wonderland .. nice to hear that again on Saturday
Bruno Bruno Bruno for Wayne Allison
Digby Number 1 Digby Digby Number 1 England Number1
Stevie White Stevie White Stevie Whiteeee etc etc

anyone else remember some old player songs?

I almost forgot .. remember the Celery song?

All those pale into insignificance compaired to the old old "Dinkle Song" sung by the Townend and South Side (sorry Shrivvy) fnas back in the 83-85 seasons under Macari, The whole ground used to stop and listen and I remember the Scunthorpe fans actually applauding it at a fog ridden game in 84ish season.

Fantastic.

how does that go?

Dinkle song?  How did that go?

lou macari's red and white army.we are ossies red and white army.
wem-ber-ly-wem-ber-ly.
going up going up going up.
steam, steam, steam roller.
one chris kamara.
shearer,shearer,shearer,
ole ole ole ole swindon town,swindon town.
we're on the march with ossies army.



i could go on and on and on.it was so much better back then!

Steam! Steam! Steam Roller......(repeat as you surge forward knocking everyone over).

Gittens gonna get ya! (Repeat).

A lala lala Bamber!

Away in a manger.......etc etc...no cribb for a bed, the little lord jesus stood up and he said "We hate Oxford and we hate Oxford!".

I always like the 'You thought you had scored - you were wrong!' chant, went down very well at Elm park in the late eighties on boxing day when Reading had a perfectly good equaliser ruled out.....dem were the days...

it was "johnnys gonna get ya" flash.

i'm sure that was sung against Villa on the Stratton Bank when we played them in the cup???????

fucking hell i was singing the wrong song for 4 seasons!!!

That one about Joey Beauchamp...sung like Nellie the Elephant..

Joey Beachamp packed his bags and fucked of back to oxford.
Off he went with a kick up the Arse.
Cunt, Cunt, Cunt!

Lovely stuff :)

O.X.F -  O.R.D.
Joey Bumchmps got VD

Was a guddun.

My memory fades me a little with age but some of the bits I remember....

Swindon biys gonna sing you a song
We all got dinkles 1 foot long
We're the boys who love a fight
Especially in Oxford on a Saturday night

Adi Elsworth laying in the bath
Playing with his dinkle having a larf
Gave a cry and shot his load
He almost burst the overflow

There was Ollie laying in his bed
Playing with his dinkle the ends all red
We all see the size of Ollies dong
It was 2 feet wide and 6 feet long

Stabber lets his dinkle dangle
Got it caught in a kitchen mangle
its almost the same as Ollies dong
Except its six feet wide and 2 foot long

Oxford girls keep their legs shut tight
But they open to the boys in the red and white
We know their used to a smaller size
So the Oxford girls get a big surprise

there were at least another 3 verses but I cannot remember them now, summut about trouble in the townend etc and policemen....

Weeeeeeee all agree
Roger Malone is a wanker, a wanker, a wanker....

Edit, also

Roger Malone, Roger Malone
We know you are bent you take the little boys home

Your going home in a big white ambulance and The're Red The're White the're fucking dynamite. Swindon Town, Swindon Town are the 2 that spring to mind.

Dunno Why?  ???

quality.
we need a decent song like this as the usual bollox is just that and get tedious

we're red w're white we'r fucking dymiate swindon town repeat

Away at xmas time....Jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way...oh what fun it is too see Swindon win away!(long time since ive sang it though.)
What makes me chuckle now is when people in the Town End start shouting Argggggh all at different times.

Lou Macari's red'n white army  (especially at Mansfield)

Olly Olly Olly
Tits in a trolley
Balls in a buscuit tin
Sat on the grass
Finger up yer arse
Playing with you ding a ling a ling


Oh ?

Get out more Fred

Stanley is our leader
Donald is our king
We will follow the Swindon
And this is what we'll sing ...


Cant remember the rest

Christ, I know I'm showing my age, but when standing in the Town End sining the Molly Malone song - and everybody joined in - made your hairs stand up on your neck!

Coming back to more recent times.

I like the 2-0 and you fucked it up. 2-0 and you fucked it up song against Sheff Wed when we came back to win 3-2. Maybe 2/3 seasons ago?

He's Here, he's there, he's every fuckin where  Alan Mayes, Alan Mayes.

Andy, Andy Rowland.  (repeat)

Chris Kamara, Chris Kamara, la la la la la la.


I always had a fondness for the Celic/Rangers chants in the townend, this also got converted at times to Swap Shop/Tiswas.

Another favourite (only worked the once though) was the Growbag chants at the Aldershot player who went in goal when the goalie got injured. He must of been about 4foot nothing.

Remember the Peter Shilton dart board song.

More recently, i've quite liked the 'We are <insert managers surname here> red and white army! It worked great with Sturrock, especially  when it was bounced back and forth from the TE and SB. Hopefully we can sing it again when we eventually get a new manager!

I've always been a big fan of 'Take my hand, take my whole life too, But I can't help falling in love with you,
Swindon! Swindon!'

wise men say is a good one, but we cant sign it properly.

we sing it way too fast and everyone says sur-win-don at different times!

"We are Dowies red and white army"

arriba's going to have that on his headstone dont you know

  I can tell you the new man's name fits a "we are  ........'s red and white army chant.

Paul Tisdale then :D

please please please be dowie's
sob.......

arriba you genuinely making me laugh tonight



and I have not even been drinking

I don't believe that for a second.

Big game tomorrow and a very long day


cant face that with the usual mid week fuzziness

more importantly does he name fit

for fuck sake .......

BOOO ...... OUT!!

Im not going again till ...... is gone

........ doesnt have a clue

........ interviews are dull and boring

 It's only a matter of time, rather than syllables..

cryptic reg

Oh yeah,totally agree.We should definitely bring that back.

A one off I think, at home to the pox:

Us: SWINDON.
Pox: SHIT

Us: SWINDON
Pox: SHIT

Us: SWINDON
Pox: SHIT

Us: OXFORD
Pox: SHIT

Us: Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh (dumb wanker signs a plenty).

Class!

You ate all the pies...............you fat bastard

to the chunky physio of Morecambe

How about the Wiltshire / Gloucestershire song that went from the LHS of the Town End to the right to get the police in there.

My favourite of recent times at Bristol Rovers last year

"Irene is a prostitute, Irene is a prostitute"

Of all time

"If I had the wings of a sparrow, If I had the ass of a crow, I'd fly over Oxpord tomorrow & shit on those bastards below"

And

In their "insert name" homes
In their "insert Name"home
They look in a dustbin for something to eat, they find a dead cat & they think its a treat in their "insert name homes

And best of all the sweet song re Jouey Beau chump (when he got sent off against us)

What relevance does sweet caroline have? One of the best/scariest things i've ever experieced was walking into a dingy pub in cheltenham full of blokes in stone island gear giving us the eye. Then this came on and everybody was hugging and singing it. it was ace
