I was standing at the dug outs for the match last night when a chorus of "You'll Never Walk In Athlone" started up from the far side.
Almost immediately Stephen Kenny came over to me and told me not to worry cos the Longford fans were only having a bit of craic!
Roll on the League Cup ;)
Good to hear that our song is finally catching on - people have been warned!!! :)
Did I ever post up the Eric Lavine lyrics for you?!
Probably not so here goes....
Weeeeeeeeee'lllllll drink a drink a drink
To Eric Lavine Lavine Lavine
He's the leader of our football team
He's the greatest centre forward
That the world has ever seen
Yeah everyone knows that but the verses are the best bit! ;)
Eric is so cool,
Remarkably cultured,
He plays football & reads poetry too,
And in the disco, out in Bogart's
He makes the girls all go wooooh-oooooh
Repeat Chorus
(this will need a bit of editing!)
He could have joined Sligo or even St. Patrick's
But he joined Galway Un-i-ited,
And like the girls
At the night time
He makes us all very excited.
Repeat Chorus
And in his honour,
They're building a statue,
In Galway down by the do-o-ocks
And we think that
It's appropriate
That the statue is a 7-foot ****
Repeat Chorus
When the times comes,
For Eric to leave us,
We will all be sad and gri-i-im
And in the streets of
Dear old Galway,
All the kids will look like him
Final Chorus

We only drink a drink a drink to Stephen the King!
We also had a good rendition of You'll Never Get A Job to Shumi and the other knobs that follow UCD. They really are the most annoying South County Dublin w@nkers. (yes even worse than most people from south county dublin)
