COMPETITION: The Referee’s A…

referee

It’s competition time again. Up for grabs for the week to come is a book about the best chants in football.

Throughout the country every weekend, football stadiums ring with the sound of hundreds of thousands of supporters singing the praises of their favourite players, rubbishing the opposition, having a go at the ref and waxing lyrical about past legends. From lengthy ballads reminiscing about club glory to spontaneous chants – often with extremely amusing results – football fans across the nation revel in the opportunity to make themselves heard. This book contains the best bits,

It is written by a red who is a regular poster here on RoM, so expect numerous sections poking fun at the dippers.

It’s currently selling for less than a fiver on Amazon but if you’re interested in winning a copy for free then simply send in the funniest chant you’ve heard/know of, not necessarily just United’s, to: republik_of_mancunia_competition@hotmail.co.uk

    One of my favourites was four seasons ago, at Xmas, at the Bridge, when Chelsea were champions…

    (to the tune of winter wonderland)

    Mourinhooo, are you listening?
    You’d better keeeep that tropy glistening.
    Cos we’ll be back in May
    To take it away.
    Walking in a Fergie wonderland!

    And we did!

    Hi Kanchelskis – that song you have written is in the book!

    It’s my first ever book so it would be great if you tell everyone about it!

    Thanks for helping me out with this Scott…

    Alex.

    Talking about the Chav’s I like the : “hollow , hollow hollow, Chelsea’s success is fucking hollow, all the money they took from the big russian crook and they’ll never win three in a row”. Soon to be four.

    Love the Hargreaves song, This is how it feels to be city. Far too many in United’s songbook to make a definate choice.

    “There`s only 2 da Silvas, 2 da Silvas, there`s only 2 da Silvas”

  8. Dani says:

    That sounds like a great book, congrats. Alex.

    I really like the follow chant for the Moscow Final in 2008 and the:

    What a friend we have in Jesus,
    He’s our saviour from afar,
    what a friend we have in Jesus,
    And his name is Cantona!!

    Oh Ah Cantona!

    One of the classic United ‘funnies’ was at the 2007 FA Cup Final vs Chelsea after it was in the press about the Mourinho family pet getting lost – again to the tune of Winter Wonderland:

    Mourinho are you listening
    Your dog’s gone missing
    We heard it bark
    So we fed it to Park
    Walking in a Fergie Wonderland……!!

    Your just a fat eddie murphy, fat eddie murphyyyy, or just a fat eddie murphy – toward jimmy ffloyd hasselbank

  16. james21 says:

    @ Marsy
    Ha Ha Ha Classic mate.
    The Other ‘Park Park wherever u may be’ chant is classic as well. Anything that pokes fun at the Scousers wins it for me.
    Used to like ‘You are my Solskjaer’

  17. gravedigga says:

    O….Owen Hargreaves…you are the love of my life…
    O….Owen Hargreaves…i’ll let u shag my wife…
    O….Owen Hargreaves…i want curly hair too…

    alex- good luck for the book!

    Thanks for the support everyone! Most of the chants you guys have posted here feature in the book and there is a short piece of history with most songs too!
