Recommended Posts

After spending sevearal seconds poring over an apprpriate tome for our Welsh Wizard, I've come up with a MASTERPIECE.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, to the tune of the Slade classic, "Merry Christmas Everyone," for your delight and delectation, I PROUDLY PRESENT, "A SONG FOR YAKNOW."

Drum-roll maestro - PLEASE.......................................................................

.......................................................................................................................

You might not BE

MERRY CHRISTIAN

But we know you're trying SON

Score for the City NOW

AND GET YOUR BARNET DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thank you!

I think they're both good; so well done GreenUn as well!

What i'd like to see now is one of these actually sang with gusto at Swinedown.

Soo many times various people on here (including myself) have come up with good, easy tunes for Robbo, however, when push comes to shove; it's always "tinman is a ..." and "Oh Tommy, Tommy ...".

It really is about time this bloke knew that we understand his passion for his boyhood club and country and WE DON'T have an issue with it!

I would start the song; problem is when I shout loud, I kinda got this girly fever-pitch scream thing going on. I WILL definitely join in though!

Who's up for the starting one or both of these? EDR, Percy, Yellow Submariners, anobody; I challenge you! :D

Or just how abnout a song that everyone in the ground can join in with, without a fuss?

"One Christian Roberts, theres Only One Christian Roberts!"

Good efforts from both concerned but i think Sean is right.... A simple chant which everyone will join in with without going "erm, ah, whats the next line mate" Is the best answer :D

I really like that song Millwall sing... We are Millwall... we are Millwall, repeated, with lots of people singing it sounds amazing.

Maybe we could get it started at Swindon with all 3,500 singing We are Bristol... we are Bristol... Could catch on quite well.

How did 'Tinman is a sh*thead' catch on?

I don't recall when it became popular, but it does show that songs with more than one line are possible.

Plz sing robbo a song. I think he wud really appreciate it because at the moment I'm not sure if he thinks city fans support him. We cant stop him supporting Cardiff. He has luved them since he was young just like me with city and i wouldnt stop supporting city 4 anyone. I am up 4 both songs both sound good :D

Yeh i guess so but that seems to be the exception.... Other players songs are simple or repetative so caught on quickly. Simple is best :D

Neo, you're quite right, we need to give him (Robbo) a response and everyone else as well.

I've got some 94 songs printed (thats twleve sides of paper by three columns wide) that the yellow sub crew take away to every match. It helps everyone remember some of our older renditions (especially the younger element) plus it gives us a chance to reword them for new players, ala, "he's here, he's there he's every....." you get the jist.

One for Robbo could be (to the tune of We got the whole worl in our hands)

We got a Soul Crew Boy in our ranks

We got a Soul Crew Boy in our ranks

We got a Soul Crew Boy in our ranks

We got a Soul Boy in our ranks

etc

Listen out for the submariners on Saturday......oh, and don't forget your balaclavas and marigolds!

:D:D:D:clap::clap::o

Perhap's I should have gone for the first effort instead?

Feed the Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelsh

LET HIM KNOW IT'S CHRISTIANS TIME - AND

(repeat ad nauseum)

Naaaaaaah!

Shouldn't that be

Ya-know the Weeeeelesh

Let him ya-know it's ya-know Christians ya-know time

or how about

Ya-know ya-know

Ya-know ya-know

Heeeeey hey hey

Christian Roberts

or

Christian is a Welshman

He wears a ya-know hat

He plays for Bristol City

And his hair's like a dead cat

He wears his ya-know gloves

And he wears his ya-know vest

And when we get promotion

He'll dye his ya-knows black

Ya-know?

We got a lad called Christian Roberts and he's a foreigner

He wears a pair of gloves and silver boots and he's got funny hair

For he's a ###### Welshman but we don't really care

Forget Jacki's song, how about...

Put your left gut in,

Your right gut out,

In, Out, In, Out, Shake it all about,

Do the Darren Caskey, yes he's very round,

And that's what it's all about,

Ohhh... Darren Caskey, Ohhh... Darren Caskey...

errr....cos we have that for Tony Butler. Not one Christian Roberts, obviously- but "One Tony Butler, there's only one Tony Butler"

But the fact is, as you said- it has to be simple- that's why it's Christian Roberts, Christian Roberts to the tune of "Thierry Henry, Thierry Henry". Don't know what the tune it called. It's played pre-match sometimes- has no words- but everyone sings along to it.

This has to be sung, historically we have a tendency to be quite self-effacing with our chanting (more the off the cuff replies than any of the main chants) and this would fit right into that perspective. Love it :cool:

All these great songs, why do none of them get sung at games? Why doesn't someone try and get them started especially the 'seasons in the sun' Roberts one? next match, everyone on this forum has to struggle to get it going :cool:
