The Michael Owen Song Competition

The RoM Summer Competition closes today just in time for us to launch our next competition, whereby the readers of RoM send in ideas for songs for our new signing, Michael Owen. Given his past, I’m sure we could get some really tasty verses going.

Simply send your words with the name of the tune to our usual competition e-mail: republik_of_mancunia_competition@hotmail.co.uk

The prize will be a RoM shirt of your choice.

The winner of the Summer Competition will be revealed sometime over the weekend/Monday depending on how much I drink.

    To the tune of “My Old Man’s a Dustman” / “Keano’s Magic Hat”:

    Ow-en’s gonna score the winner,
    He’ll be the fucking king,
    We’ll love him on the Strettie,
    For him we’ll shout and sing.

    He used to be a dipper,
    He used to have no class,
    But now that he’s in Manchester
    Gerrard can kiss my ass!

    OK now remember i live in Spain and some of us are a little backward, lol
    but some of the lads in our local bar are singing this little lot.

    always look on the bright side of life, Owen,Owen,Owen, Owen, Owen.

    to the tune of anarchy in the UK Sex pistols,
    Owen is a UTD man
    Owen is a Fergi fan
    he knows what he wants
    and he knows how to get it
    he wants to destroy scoucers n blues
    cos Owen wants to be M>U>F>C

    sorry our main songwriter is a Yorkshire man

    sorry for posting same cmment twice.accident.

  8. Mezza says:

    thx for clearin that up, thought u just enjoy posting the same comment numerous times…

    On topic……not sure about all of yous, but im bit skeptical about owen, just as i was about berba….. both are great players in their own right, the question is how are they gonna gel into the team this season, something berba failed to do in the last one…just my 2 cents…

  9. Nani was in Thriller! says:

    Owen was a geordie
    He wore a scousers hat
    But when he saw old trafford
    He said i fancy that!
    He met fergie for breakfast , he was f***ing happy,
    But we more because guess wot we got dat c*** for FREE!!!!

  10. AIG ALEX IS GOD. says:

    @mezza.i think they cn play together.the amount of chances we create we need a target man and roo and berba like to drop deep so when the chance cmes none of them is there in the box.owen can do that wel and stay around da penalty box and whack them in

  11. aig alex is god says:

    @mezza.dnt wrry mate.owen is a gr8 poacher.he wil get plenty of chances at utd.berba and roo like to drop deep so owen can stay in the box and bang them in.

    In for a week out for a month,
    Yes Owen is like a tampon.

  15. KJ says:

    9 Years ago he was a scouse
    Owen Owen
    But now hes gonna score for us
    Owen Owen!
    He’ll score a goal at anfield road, if his hamstring doesnt explode
    Michael Owen United’s Number ***

  16. Rams says:

    Nicely stolen @Vidic is God with your first chant. Cant make up your own? Props to Pete Boyle for it originally eh

  17. pdn001 says:

    “There’s only one Michael Owen!
    He used to be sh*te,
    But now he’s alright,
    Walking in an Owen wonderland!”

    Bound to be sung if he scores against the scousers!

  18. pdn001 says:

    Nicked from Hargreaves but still:

    “Oh Michael Owen, you are the love of my life,
    Oh Michael Owen, I’d love to sh*g your wife,
    Oh Michael Owen,
    I love your fake tan too!!!”

  19. denton davey says:

    somewhat off-topic but I had a momentary “flash of inspiration” with regard to Gabriel Obertan.

    My mother and her sister used to sing me a song from their girlhood in the 1920s when they lived in M/C. I imagine it was a popular song but I only know the first couple of lines – yet it fits Obertan perfectly.

    “Oh, Oh, Antonio
    with his ice-cream cart

    Oh, Oh, Antonio
    he broke my heart”

    I’m sharing this with the people on Scott’s blog in the hope (?) that someone’s granny remembers this tune to put new words of salutation to it for UTD’s newest signing:

    “Oh, Oh, Obertan
    with his flying feet

    Oh, Oh, Obertan
    On the score-sheet”

    or some such non-sense. It cuold be a winner. Go ask your granny !

  20. SupersonicWarrior says:

    To the tune of Manchester (Is Wonderful)

    Antonio! (Antonio!) Valencia! (Valencia!)
    Antonio Valencia, he doesn’t dive, or crash Ferrari’s
    Antonio Valencia!

    Song 1: To the tune of the old Tevez Song

    Owen scored against Argentina
    Couldn’t give a fuck cos he was scum
    But now we’s signed for us for free
    I really cannot wait to see
    Him score a load a goals against the bastards where he’s from!

    Song 2: To the tune of Row, row row the boat

    Ow, Ow, Owens on
    Give the lad the ball
    He’ll put it in the dippers net (again)
    Cos they’re gonna win fuck all

    Song 3: To the tune of “I wish” by Skee-Lo

    I wish he was little bit taller,
    I wish he wasn’t scouser
    I wish he had have signed for us
    When he was younger
    I wish he’ll put the ball in tha back of the scousers net
    (and another)

    Signing for United saved his Soul
    so we only pay if he scores a goal
    Now Its getting dear cos the goals keep flowin
    Little Michale Owen

    He used to play for shite football teams
    Til Fergie brought him to the Theatre of Dreams
    Now everytime he hits the net
    The Glazers banker begins to sweat
    Little Michael Owen

    His family only eats if he scores with his feet
    He just scored the winner so they can have some dinner
    Little Michael Owen

    Now Its getting dear cos the goals keep flowin
    He just scored again
    Little Michael Owen !

    (Needs some polishing but the best I can do tonight )

  24. ModoB. says:

    I’ll see what I can do ;)

  25. 11reds says:

    Well, looks like even Sir Alex favours Owen and speaks highly of him just like I have been doing on my blog. This is what he said today http://11reds.com/opinion/saf-owen-has-never-lost-his-form/

  26. United's Red Army says:

    to the tune of Gary Owen 7th Cavalry song

    We’ve had Scholes and Giggs and Cantona,
    the neville boys and we went far
    ronaldo came and was a star
    and now we’ve got Michael Owen

    he left the scouse not too soon
    went to spain, then became a toon
    his contract finished at the end of june
    the geordies lost Michael Owen

    tevez went to the council house
    slagged Alex off, so he’s a louse
    so in came another scouse
    and his name is Michael Owen

    Micky owen, micky owen
