BM53's thread 'We love you Blackpool' kick-started me off to post this thread - I posted one of my faves on his!👍

As I'm knocking on a bit, I reckon it would be great to educate the youngsters with all our favourite songs and chants from the past.

Also vice-versa, because I'm prone to asking my 16 year old grandson 'WTF they singing now?"😁

Okidoki, I'll kick this right off with an old fave of mine with which we can all resonate...

If I had the wings of an angel
The dirty black arse of a crow
I'd fly over Preston tomorrow
And shit on the bastards below, below
Shit on, shit on, I'd shit on the bastards below...
 
While i'm certainly not putting it forward as our "best chant", sometime in the mid 90s just after Oyston had been sent down we played Burnley away. Right at that time a famous storyline was going on in Coronation Street where Dedrie Barlow had been sent to prison. Que "Oystons shagging Deidrie" chants all night.

We've always been lacking in original chants, "we'll go Back Henry street.." "We only carry hatchets".. "daytrippers go home", I like the "going down to bloomfield road, to see the Blackpool aces" one but it's not original with obviously Newcastle singing it but also Bolton and many others doing a similar version to us. Of the newer ones I like the "just can't get enough" but I believe it originated with Celtic.
 
Forever and ever , wherever we’ll be... the blackpool fc we rule supreme...we’ll never be mastered by you, you preston bastards... we’ll keep the tangerine flag flying high.🧡
 
Where was the goalie when the ball‘s in the net,
Where was the goalie when the ball‘s in the net,
Where was the goalie when the ball‘s in the net, Sitting on the crossbar reading the Gazette.
 
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
Oh I do like to walk along the prom, prom, prom
When blackpooLkick the shit out of West Brom.
 
Georgie Mee he may be wee but he will score against thee, Georgie Mee

Against Nelson F.C in the 1925/26 season
 
A few one off chants spring to mind
In the South Paddock we were warned about the bad language in the Mickey Walsh chant, so we amended it to:

He's here, he's there
We're not allowed to swear,
Mickey Walsh, Mickley Walsh

Boxing day 1983, Tranmere 3 Pool 2,
"sing when you sign on
You only sing when you sign on...."

Marc 93 Stoke away
" who put the ball in the Stoke City net,
Tricky Trevor Sinclair

United away in the Prem when the United fans sang Giggs will tear you apart, to the sound of Joy Division

To the same tune, Giggs, Giggs is shagging a tart
I worked in Manchester and I got a round of applause from the United fans for that one on Monday morning
 
If you go down to the Kop today,
You'll never believe your eyes,
The Blackpool Skins are waiting there,
To carve you up with knives,

For Jeremy the Sugar Puffs Bear,
Has got some boots and cropped his hair,
For hes a member of the Blackpool Boot Boys

(To Teddy Bears Picnic)
 
Couple of 1970's ditties for the kids

All I want is a walking stick
A hand grenade and a buiding brick
A Preston fan to punch a kick
Oh, wouldn't it be lover-ly!

And (to the tune of Tiptoe thru the tulips)

Tiptoe thru the kop end
With your boots on
Get your head kicked in
Oh tiptoe thru the kop end with me

It was a different world then. Regularly caned at school by the resident sadist!
 
I recall us playing at Burnley one year, just after their manager had been banned for drink driving.. he came out of the tunnel before kick-off, to be greeted by 4,000 Pool fans, pointing at him and singing "you must have come in a taxi"! Quality...
 
Remember when Dean Gherkin was playing for Colchester and the South (Paddock) gave him a rendition of "You're just a sh1t little pickle" 😆
 
I liked our chant against Preston donkeys years ago, a week or so after Mansfield beat them 5-0 ...

Who put the ball in the Preston net? Half of fuckin' Mansfield!
😁🧡

Said Bertie Mee to Bob Stokoe, “have you heard of Highbury.”
Bob said “No, I don’t think so, but I’ve heard of the Seaside aggro”
Nah nah nah nah nah nah I’ve heard of the Seaside Aggro!

Correction: “Bob Stokoe said to Bertie Mee, have you heard of the North Bank Higbury”

There once was a small little Preston
His face was all tattered and torn
He made me feel sick
So I hit him with a brick
And so now he don't sing anymore! 😁

Ooh Andy Garner Ooh Andy Garner

I also always remember every team singing Here we go! here we go!

We are The Nutters we come from the sea!
(We played Liverpool in a charity game for the drowned police and their dogs, we sang it loud and proud!
their next match was on tv and was clearly heard for probably the only time sung from their Kop!)
 
Number one is Dave Bamber, number twooo is Dave Bamber etc
We all live in a Dave Bamber world.

She wore, she wore, she wore a tangerine ribbon
 
Bringing it up to the present day I love the chant “keogh keogh keogh keogh keogh “
I join in but can never remember who it’s about
Always liked one man went to mo as it was fun, along with the one about shooting some Preston scum which was also fun
She wheeled her wheelbarrow & your going home in a ** ambulance were also fun....I like to have fun

In Dublin's fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying 👏👏 👏👏👏 👏👏👏👏 BLACKPOOL!
