Billy Woods

The 'Oh Silly Billy...went to Shamrock Rovers and you won *uck all' chant always gets the Shed going, but I personally would love to see Woods come back and play with City.

How about taking a different approach on Sunday week:

"Oh Billy Billy...
Come back to Super City
And you'll win the lot"

Positive chants aren't exactly a forte of the Shed IMO, Neil, but you never know...

True a lot of our chsants are negative towards opposite teams/players/fans etc but as gerry said you never know

**pete** · 06/12/2001, 2:16 PM

Good idea. more of the positive chants towards our own instead of nagative ones to the opposition.

**Schumi** · 06/12/2001, 2:34 PM

Aww, negative chants are always funnier.

Why, necessarily?

OK, things like 10-nil to the refugees etc can be very good when they are new. But I think most of the negative ones are intended to taunt or insult. There's no reason why positive/pro your own team chants or songs can't be funny...

Gerry what I dont like is the way you in paticular every time a criticism of the board is mentioned (not on this thread but on others) you revert to ..bad day at the office, or that one about american babes or something..type comments..rather then responding to any of the points I have made.

Is it that you agree with them but dont want to say it publically or what..because it you do disagree with them..then I'd appreciate it you would say why !

The beleagured board comment had a smiley appended, James...
PLUS, I've stated elsewhere in plain English that it is neither my duty nor my desire to defend them. I suggest you chill, just a tad. You're taking this up ar$eways...

Where can you get those flares again, by the bus station isn't it. Can you just go in and ask for them or do you have to have a rudder and outboard engine under each arm. What colours can you get ?

**James** · 06/12/2001, 3:56 PM

yea by the bus station..no just go in and ask...not sure what colours..only got the regular ones..the last time for the $hels game..anyway face you look scruffy enough to pass for a fisherman anyway...
