The old school RFC terrace tunes thread

[Royal With Cheese]

We don't win trophies and we don't win cups
We don't win the league and we don't win much
We're not very good In fact, we're bad
WE ARE THE READING
We're mad.

LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

WE ARE THE READING
We're mad.

[Jackson Corner]

"I can't read and I can't write
But I can drive a tractor"

No it went.

I can't read and I can't write, but that don't really matter.
Cus I come down from Swindon Town, and I can drive a tractor.

Weeeeeve got a bigger blooming biscuit

Cracking thread, a real trip down memory lane.

Deanoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

One of my favourite off-pitch memories was a pissed Dean leading chants of this as he staggered off the team bus after the last game of the 83-84 season, somewhere south of Hartlepool, as the team bus stopped to drink a few bottles of bubbly with the supporters on the two executive coaches that went to the game that day. There was also a mini pitch invasion that day to celebrate Senior's record-breaking goal.

We're the left side
We're the left side
We're the left side of the bank

10,9,8,7.....

Always good for a laugh this one. Occasionally the old bill used to pile in to the south bank as well when the bundle went off at 1 !

[grey_squirrel]

if and i mean IF, that lot from the pig town of west country manage to get promoted... any chance we could re kindle some of these tunes?

More likely we'll meet them half way tbh.

[No Fixed Abode]

WE'RE ON THE RIGHT SIDE, WE'RE THE RIGHT SIDE, WE'RE THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE STAND......

[sputnik]

I can't read and I can't write, but that don't really matter.
Cus I come down from Swindon Town, and I can drive a tractor.

oooh aaarrrrggghhh !

[leicsRoyal]

"Fight, fight wherever you may be"

"Come and join us"

"You'll never take the Southbank"


Closely followed by chaos.

[me]

He's fat, he's round, he's taking Leicester down; Mark McGhee, Mark McGhee.

When the saints go steeeeeeeeeeeemin' in

[leicsRoyal]

"When the red red Robin, goes bob bob bobbin along"

[Gobsheik]

If I had the wings of a sparrow,
If I had the arse of a crow,
I'd fly over swindon tomorrow,
and shit on the bastards below.

[Booseal]

WE'RE ON THE RIGHT SIDE, WE'RE THE RIGHT SIDE, WE'RE THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE STAND......

Good call. Replace "stand" with "bank" for the southbankers.

Also...

"Come and have a go if you think you're 'ard enough"

"You'll be going 'ome in a St. John's ambulance"

"Celery, celery, if she don't cum, I'll tickle 'er bum with a lump of celery"

[sputnik]

Celery, celery, if she don't cum, I'll tickle 'er bum with a lump of celery

What were the origins of this one ?

[AthleticoSpizz]

(topical tonight, and on the old SouthBank)


Play up Pompey etc

[Booseal]

Celery, celery, if she don't cum, I'll tickle 'er bum with a lump of celery

What were the origins of this one ?

I was born under a Reading star,
I was born under a Reading star.

Heads were made for kicking,
Trains were made to wreck,
And if you are an Oxford fan we'll break your oxf*rd neck.

I was born under a Reading star,
I was born under a Reading star.

LMAO quality version. Rangers sing this but a different version. Reading should bring that out of reitrement.

i was born under a union jack , i was born under a union jack
do you know where hell is , hell is in the falls
heaven is in shankill and we'll guard those derrys walls
oh i was born under a union jack

walking down the shankill , it was my proudest day
we sang the sash and the derrys walls and we oxf*rd the IRA
tims they have their shamrocks and we have our red hand
we passed on ever so proudly with the pride ae govan band

oh i was born under a union jack , a union union jack

There you go again! you just can't help it can you? you seem to enjoy narrow minded sectarian/racist stuff, why?

[oldebiscuit]

What was our version of the Bertie Mee/Bill Shankley song?

I went and asked Bill Shankly
Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?
Shanks says no, I don't think so
But I've heard of the Reading Boot Boys/South Bank



With a knock knee'd chicken and a bow legged hen,
I haven't had a fight since I don't know when
We don't give a wiggle and we dont give a w**k
We are the Reading South Bank



I love to go a wandering to see what I can wreck
And if I see a Swindon fan I'll break his oxford neck



If I had the wings of a sparrow,
If I had the ar** of a crow
I'd fly over swindon tomorrow
And oxford on the b'stards below


Robin, Robin, give us a wave

We hate Chester City
We hate swindon too
We hate oxford united
but Reading we love you

Bobby where's your handbag?
Bobby where's your handbag?
(Ten seconds later twenty West Ham fans piled in and the South Bank folded like a pack of cards)

Bertie Mee siad to Bill Shankly,
Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?

I'm a bow legged chicken, i'm a knock kneed hen,
i haven't been this happy since i don't know when,
i walk with a wiggle and we don't give a oxf*rd,
we are the Reading south bank.

Lyrics vary depending on your club end.
