NewBlue Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 This has been tried so many times before. Even on an official level with the club when we got andy Williams I love you baby. It'll never catch on. These things are complete spare of the moment never planned In fairness there's absolutely no way You'll Never Walk Alone, On The Ball City, Forever Blowing Bubbles, Grand Old Team, Greasy Chip Butty, Marching on Together, No Nae Never, Play Up Sky Blues etc. were spur of the moment....

China Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Any lyrical geniuses put some words to 'Dirty 'Ol Town' ? FC United use that one, they sing we built our own ground to that tune and to be fair it sounds pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b0ndl1ne Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I mentioned this to a mate of mine who watches Latics with me and I said they should blast this tune out on match days, however he thought I was talking out of my arse and they never played it. It was one of the reasons I returned to BP after my first ever game in the halcyon days when Craig Dudley and Mark Allott were up front. I remember Lomana Tresor Lua Lua tearing us apart for Colchester in either my 2nd or 3rd game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookersstandandy Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Ok, so to This how it feels by Inspiral Carpets; Cor-ney don't know what he's done Baz don't know what's wrong with us He can't say, they can't see, Putting it down to another bad day, So this is how it feels to be Oldham, This is how it feels to be small, This is how it feels when our Shez comes home for us all.

bigfatjoe1 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 it's got something to the great escape theme tune from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L1onheartNew Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) OK, next effort. Would work well with the drum and would sound great at Burton on the telly... To the tune of Swords of a thousand men: Home verse: Deep in the castle of Boundary Park, Listen to the sound of the Yard dogs bark. Sounds of the roar of the crowd outside, Oldham supporters from far and wide. Hear our shouts, hear our roar, We are Athletic and we will score much much more Win at home and win away John Sheridan and his team of eleven men Away verse: We had to meet the enemy miles away, Quaking in their boots and their faces turned grey. Assembling the lads with skills so sharp, Shez put hope in our Oldham hearts. Hear our roar, hear our sound, Were gonna fight until we have beat this town. Win at home and win away, John Sheridan and his team of eleven men. Final verse: When the scores come along at the end of the day, Another win for Oldham and we're Champions again. Hear our triumph, hear our roar, We are Athletic and we will score much much more Win at home and win away, John Sheridan and his team of eleven men. Edit: forgot the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AywIL5_eYM It will keep my brother happy and get him back to BP. He loved that song! Now to Wunderbar and three bells in a row!

NewBlue Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 The other thing to bear in mind is that none of these songs fit in with the Athleticos. They just won't sing them... Have to get a few older heads involved to get some of these chants going, if you wanted to get them off the ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzlatic Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 The Hollies - Air that I breathe Woof. It works as a stand alone song if just singing the chorus. But also, I've thought long and hard about the lyrics and I think I've come up with an Oldham version. Took a while, hopefully it's not so complicated it puts people off. As doggy suggested, to the tune of Air that I breathe by the hollies... Sometimes, all I need is the air that I breathe And the Oldham All I need is the air that I breathe Yes The Oldham All I need is the air that I breathe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truth is nobody has the bottle to try singing any of them so it's a waste of time. I beg to differ. I usually have lots of bottles before I sing swords of a thousand men most Friday nights after and during games of disjointed ping pong as we affectionately call it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
