Strange that anytime Bohs play in the Local Authority stadium ( other than when we beat Pats in the Setanta). the deck randomly selects, " The Banks of Zurich" and that timeless classic " Gypsies tramps and thieves"

This place is great.

Surely it's just harmless fun? I wouldn't mind if Drogheda played "the Wall" when Unknowns were in town!

Presume the latter refers to those attending the game, Gypies (Bohs) tramps and thieves

I decided I was tired of the old Harps song.

It got me thinking. Are there many official songs about the clubs around the League of Ireland?

Don't think I've ever really heard many, and can't think of any off the top of my head.

For the record, here's what I came up with in an hour.

You're not really interested in whether there are "official club" songs around the league. You just used the thread as an excuse to publish your dirge. You should write a song about their first game in the league which I was at in 1969. Now that is worth a song.

That's lovely. I'm glad someone rattled me.

For the record however, it was a genuine question. I usually post my songs in the music thread. You can have a look at the rest of my 'dirge' there.

I'm well aware of Harps defeat in 1969 to Shamrock Rovers too. But since I wasn't there, writing a song about it wouldn't do it any justice.

If it really annoys people so much, I'd ask some of the mods to delete my first post completely, but there's no need to be an a*sehole about it.
