Hartlepool Song

"You can stick your toxic ships, stick your toxic ships, stick your toxic ships..."

it's there where I get stuck. Answers on a postcard!?!

Must be sung on Saturday- sure we can think of some others between now and then.

Don't really want to spoil your fun but no-one will bat an eyelid with regards to the so-called 'toxic ships' , the whole thing was blown out of all proportion by a few hippy environmentalists and the press , the ships are docked closer to Smoggsville (Mboro) than Hartlepool anyway and actually pose little threat to anyone.

The re-worded 'In your Liverpool slums' will also be way off the mark as Hartlepool has undergone a massive regeneration project over the last 15 years with the almost total removal of the docks area inplace of a rather upmarket Marina with all of its executive housing , restaraunts , bars and cafes , watersports and so on , it does still have it's poorer areas like most places but it is unlikely that any of you will come across them this weekend , I'm afraid.

Even our formerly embarrasing story of the Monkey Hanging Legend has become something of a gimmick in the way of tourist attraction , indeed even the clubs mascot , if you didn't already know, is an 8ft simian by the name of H'Angus the Monkey.

Try singing something like 'we hate Geordies' or something because we REALLY do hate being classed as our barefooted friends from 40 miles to the north !

:Hmm, yeah that's really funny Tarquin.:

IF we're winning you could always use the tried and tested "are you Darlo in disguise?" chant, sure to go down a treat.
This is the one that's sure to upset us , the Northern B*stards one is quite good but knowing the mentality of 'some' of our lot they'd probably think that it was a compliment !
