i'll put that up later if i can figure out how to do it... ronnie drew voice: "and we'll shake them up when the word-led cup is raised on stephen's green" "give it a lash jack" provided of one of my most surreal moments following ireland... in the square in palermo, june '90 before our game with the dutch, bunch of dutch guys wearing little more than women's underwear and orange face paint singing that song to the group of us....how the hell they'd heard it let alone learned it word perfect i have no idea.... love the dutch fans...we were alternating on the "ooh-ahh! paul mcgrath!" and "ooh-ahh! ruud gullit!!" and they were handing out pamphlets headlined "let's draw 3-3!" (they even listed who the scorers would be) wishfully thinking we could both get through at england's expense... later, inside the stadium, it's 1-1, mccarthy and gullit have a quick word and it's obvious neither side is going out of its way to score a winner...the rumour goes round the stadium that egypt are beating england (england actually won the game 2-0 if i recall correctly)....it's looking like a dream come true and behind me one of the luton irish (who'd been starting all the chants and giving it loads all game) roars out triumphantly and in his best cockney accent "fack-in' en-ger-land are losin'!"
One of my favourites with the Dutch fans was in Orlando '94. Game over, lost 2-0 to a better Dutch side. Back in the town center, with the usual assortment of Dutch and Irish intermingling. All going well, beer flowing, sobriety a dot in the rearview. Suddenly, a bit of a scattering - can't really be a row can it? - and then the chant (to the tune of You'll never beat the Irish) from about 50-70 sorry, sad, drunk Irish fans to all the Dutch (75?) at the other side of the bar.........."You'll never win the Eurovision........."
The Memories - The Game lyrics (Apparently one time Billy Joel was so impressed by the lyrics that he learned them and sang them during a concert in Dublin) I did these, that is why many of the Foreign Players are either spelled wrong or just arent there (NOTE: AT VERSE 4 THERE IS JUST $#1t, I apologize, I was getting bored) ??=I am not sure of this Verse 1: Jackie Charlton, Eoin Hand Johnny Giles. Ireland Mick McCarthy, Steven Staunton ?Castarino?

Don Givens, ?Pendaslaw? Eusebio Jr, Ronnie Whelan Senior ?????????? #10 We'll never see his like again ?Gorbache is Mean? Champions, Argentina Chorus: Were gonna start a fire ?And when Rome is burning? there'll be no returning Were gonna start a fire We have Jack to mind us and the fans behind us Verse5: Netherlands, Egypt England got a free trip Pleaded, Seeded Because of the supporters Ruud Gullit might be out Holland wouldn't have a shout Hoddle and Waddle Have they got the ?brodle? We have England in the draw And the Dutch like before One thing that were grateful for We didnt get the Mafia Chorus: Were gonna start a fire ?And when Rome is burning? there'll be no returning Were gonna start a fire We have Jack to mind us and the fans behind us Verse6: Seeded in Sicily Off the coast of Italy 6 hours boat trip We can take the hardship But the fans couldnt care They can travel anywhere No one else can match the sound Our supporters bring around June 11, English Game We can do the trick again Egypt next and then the Dutch Its the second round for us When we finally get to Rome No one will be left at home Aldridge is about to score Listen to the Irish Roar Chorus: Were gonna start a fire ?And when Rome is burning? there'll be no returning Were gonna start a fire We have Jack to mind us and the fans behind us

OK, I decided that I would rewrite the lyrics to the The Game - The Memories with the more recent players. This song basically is from the last World Cup until now. If you sing along (or think along, like I do) it makes sense. Any feedback (+ or -) would be appreciated. Verse 1: Mick McCarthy, in command Ian Harte. Ireland Stevie Finnan, Steven Staunton Two Keanos Damien Duff, Niall Quinn Given doesn't let em in Robbie Keane Gary Breen Comeback Keano Verse 2: Roy Keane Back Four Robbie's got another score World Cup in Japan In the playoff Beat Iran Roy Keane gave him lip Mick McCarthy let him skip Matty Holland Mark Kinsella Cunningham's a superstar Chorus: Were gonna start a fire And when Rome is burning there'll be no returning Were gonna start a fire We have Mick to mind us and the fans behind us Verse 3: Three nil at the Saudis Keano tied Germany David Connolly, Richard Dunne Kevin Kilbane Jason Mac, Stevie Reid 2nd round, we procede Keano nailed the penalty Kept alive the Irish dreams World Cup was no dream We will have a winning team Morrison in Israel Damien's bad wheel Ireland 3, Cyprus nil Brian Kerr's, got it still English Football in a mess Northen Irish in the press! Chorus: Were gonna start a fire And when Rome is burning there'll be no returning Were gonna start a fire We have Mick to mind us and the fans behind us Were gonna start a fire And when Rome is burning there'll be no returning Were gonna start a fire We have Mick to mind us and the fans behind us

can anyone remember the cork band...Sultans of swing fc they had one hit..."where's my jumpa" but they also had a wicked football song......"give him a yard of space"...well worth checking out with lyrics...."a man cant have no greater love than to give 90 minutes to his friends" "if football was meant to be played in the air god would have put goalposts in the sky' well its better than westlife!
Close! Their name was the Sultans of Ping f.C. (at least that was before they dropped the 'fc' part) Their first single was "Where's me jumper?" Their song about Nigel Clough (they were Nott's Forest suppoerters) was actually called "give him a ball and a yard of grass".
