stealing our chant??

I heard Man UTD fans singing "Feed the Scousers" yesterday. Do we claim to have invented this song, or did we also steal it from somewhere. It's been on the set-list at the cross for nearly ten years now.

A lot of our chants seem to have origins over the water, but I thought this was an original one

I was surprised to hear Spurs fans singing at Liverpool recently "You are a scouser, a scummy scouser, you,re only happy on dole day etc.... I'd like to think that they got it from us and not the other way round

That's been in the United song book since the mid-eighties, actually pretty much as soon as Band Aid was out..... Gotta say that most of the chants I hear over here originate in England and the premiership.....

I see that St Patz fans have got themselves a "Dolin Out" banner as well. Copy cats!

I�d love to get that chant going, but the only time I�ll sing that git�s name is if the word "OUT" is next. We�ll sing it next season for the new manager

Slightly off topic but whats the deal with British clubs & 'The Fields of Athenry"?

I thought Glasgow Celtic were bad but could have sworn i heard at Anfield the other week!

What next "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" @ Tolka?

AFAIK, what they sing is actually "the fields of Anfield road", or so a friend of mine who likes to think he's a scouser tells me.
