Chants for the March


Recommended Posts

BASHFORTH, WHOEVER YOU MAY BE,

YOU'VE HAD WAY TO MANY PIES FOR YOUR TEA,

NOW THEY'VE GONE TO YOUR HEAD

AND THAT'S NOT RIGHT

COS ON WENDESDAY NIGHT YOU TALKED TOTAL S***E

I'm not having a go, I like it but...

 

Can I just say that this is going to be a great family day out with a fair few kids. I know it's a bit difficult but it would be nice to keep swearing out of the chants on the day. It would be best to portray a good image for the club if possible.

 

Edited to rephrase!

Cheers. :D

 

 

Correct, we also need to avoid the anti-Man U and Citeh stuff (it's only for a few hours :) ). This is about a facility for the people and town of Oldham as much as for OAFC, and we don't want to alienate some residents who may otherwise support us.

Put the Style back into Council:

 

You don't have to take this crap

You don't have to sit back and relax

You can actually try to change it

I know we've always been taught to rely

Upon those in authority

But you never know until you try

How things just might be

If we come together so strongly

 

Are you gonna make this work

Or spend your days down in the dirt

You see things can change

YES an' walls can come tumbling down!

Probably just needs something simple:

 

"You want our Council Tax

 

We want our stadium passed"

 

would it be worth printing out some song sheets to pass around the marchers, we will obviously be chanting songs none of us have ever chanted befroe, so to ensure they get belted out, song sheets could be the way forward

We're on the March with Shez's Army

We'll show Amigos what we mean

And we'll shake Oldham town

When we bring the Council down

'Cos Oldham is the greatest football team

 

 

Plus the classic to be sung at the appropriate point on the March:

 

Oh, me lads

You should have seen us coming

Fastest team in the League,

Just to see us winning

All the lads and lasses there, should see the Councillors' faces

Marching down Sheepfoot Lane to see the Shez's Aces

Who do you think you are kidding Mr. Bashforth?

If you think we're on the run,

We are the boys who will stop your little game.

We are the boys who will make you think again.

'Cus who do you think you are kidding Mr. Bashforth?

If you think Athletics done?

Come writers and critics

Who prophesize with your pen

And keep your eyes wide

The chance won't come again

And don't speak too soon

For the wheel's still in spin

And there's no tellin' who

That it's namin'.

For the loser now

Will be later to win

For the votes they need a-changin'.

 

Come Chairman and Councillors

Please heed the call

Don't stand in the doorway

Don't block up the hall

For he that gets hurt

Will be he who has stalled

There's a battle outside

And it is ragin'.

It'll soon shake your windows

And rattle your walls

For the votes they need a-changin'.
