maybe we need a thread for the posh spice ones... ;D
should we sorta take an inventory, and try to build on our stock songs?
the following are the ones i can think of that aren't player songs
we've never run this properly, though it's been posted in various incarnations 60,000 times
and it's the central coast
mariners fc
we're by far the greatest team
you'll ever see
- i'd like to see us add a little bit to yellow submarine
[to the tune of the verse of yellow submarine]
ole ole, ole ole
oooooooooh central coast
ole ole, ole ole
oooooooooh central coast
[clapping above our heads on the beats]
we all follow a yellow football team
a yellow football team
a yellow football team
we all follow a yellow football team
a yellow football team
a yellow football team
[arms over shoulders, jump in time]
sha la lalalalala
oh central coast
sha la lalalalala
oh central coast
- we've only done this a coupla times, and i think as much as anything i've rooted it up from the megaphone... it's a hard one to just launch into for the leader and for the rest of the bay, so it could really do with an intro. jets fans knocked one off from besiktas, am not sure how well they got it to work. sydney fans are talking about trying it
lawrie mckinna's yellow army *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*
yellow army *clap* *clap*
mariners *clap* *clap* *clap*
everywhere we go... etc - i'm now with the let's ditch it crew. if we don't ditch it, we need to make it work a hell of a lot better. at the moment it's done at a million miles an hour, it's done too much, and the roll into yellow army stinks. cutting it short, even changing the words, just let's do something with it, because at the moment it sucks big ones.
here we go - i'm with DJ, if for no other reasons but for the fact it's boring and since when do we ever score when singing this song? it does nothing for intensity and it's actually a pretty dull song.
coastie coastie
coastie coastie
score us a goal
score us a goal
win us the a-league
win us the a-league
and bring it on home
and bring it on home
repeats, segues into...
ole ole ole ole...
i really want the call and response to get some balls. bring it on home has always sat wrong with me, as did the fact that when we started singing it we were in about 6th place and fading. it almost seemed like a pisstake...
yellow yeah yellow
yellow yellow
yellow yeah yellow
yellow yellow
MARINERS FC
- i think this is the one unqualified success of the season just gone. sounds tops, nice and simple, lots of energy.
e-i-e-i-e-i-o
off to football here we go
we're gonna win the a-league
and this is what we sing
we're the mariners we're the mariners
winning is our thing
(the verse that a handful of people seem to know, and not even all of them sing)
we're gonna get to asia
and lawrie is our king
we're the mariners we're the mariners
winning is our thing
this one i hate, but quite frankly it does get started by the occasional young'un short on
terrace kulcha and people do sing it, so it's on the list
let's go mariners let's go
- i shuddered typing that...
i've missed a lot, so can people fill them in? it seems like so long since we've been at football...
