[Archived] The World Cup of Rovers Songs


StubbsUK

Recommended Posts

Over on the Twitters I'm running a little thing called "The World Cup Of Rovers Songs" where your favourite songs are added to World Cup style groups and then using Twitter polls they play off against each other until the winners go through to the knockout stages and eventually a winner is declared.

So, what are your favourite terrace chants? Some songs already in the hat for the draw are "Colin Colin Show Us Your Ass", "One Jack Walker", "SHEARER! SHEARER!", "EIEIEIO" ... add your favourite chants below and at the end of the day they'll be put into groups and the World Cup Of Rovers Songs can start tomorrow.

I was born on the Blackburn End....

And the best spontaneous song I think I ever heard was at the morgue - The Farms 'Although  now' - burnleys going down, burnleys going down........

They went down :tu:

As I recall, I'm sure they turned it off due to the success of all our fans singing 'All together now'. A good day that was......

Still going strong in 2017 on trips from The Craven Heifer and Spinners!
