Sean Conner of Belfast Town.
(Air Sean South of Garryowen)
1
‘Twas a dreary day in noughty four, when Sean Conner came to town,
The Rovers were a beaten team, their heads; they all hung down,
They had no courage on the field of play; their faces wore a frown.
But, Sean said “ Do not fear for long, as I’ll turn this team around.”
2
He set about it straight away, he searched both near and far.
“But first I need a number 2, and that man will be Gerry Carr”
A hero from the glory days, way back in ninety four,
And now the man to lead this band, up to the “prem-e-ore.”
3
He had the basis of a team; he needed just some more.
So, he placed his trust in O’Hara to close tight the door.
With the captain McNamara, and Burnsie by his side,
Two stalwarts of Conner’s men would stop the rushing tide.
4
Cretaro with his skill so fine, and O’Donnell from Donegal,
O’Grady, Faz and Foley too, stood up like a brick wall.
Kupono Low one of the best, that you will ever see,
With Flannery attacking strong, with the mighty Paul Mc T.
5
Alvin Rouse, Alverez too, both favourite’s of the fans,
Curran, O’Dwyer, McCarthy, Sheridan and Gorman,
Conal Murtagh from up north, McCann and Kusten,
Gallagher and Feeney, and Coolooney man Alan Flynn.
6
From now we will hear the cheering sound, of the Bit O’Red
As we march behind the Rovers, with Conner at the head.
Soon we will see the glory days, up in the Showgrounds,
And the man who will lead us all the way, will be Sean Conner from Belfast Town.
I have scattered my dreams underneath your feet, tread carefully, cos it's my dreams you walk on.
fair play redzer ill be awaiting the stars bardic contribution with interest!
Not bad, not bad at all.
Very good Redzer I could see my self singing a song to the tune of "Seán South of Garryowen" before I would ever sing anything to the tune of "The shash my father wore"![]()
excellent redzer.are you related to w.b.yeats by any chance. i will be saving this song and looking forward to singing it in some local hostilery when we win the league.
We'll soon have enough material for an open air gig in the Showgrounds, just like the boys in Terryland! Anyone have a number for Girls Aloud?![]()
The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

Roy Keane is still a pri*k!
Good effort , needs a better chorus , something along the lines of " Where are the reds that stood with me when history was made"
