Chants

I agree. It is all well and good to spend 90% of our time singing the more complicated songs, but it really is stupid and ignorant if we dont try to involve other supporters from the get go. How much could it hurt to try and get a simple sydney chant going around the stadium during crucial moments in the match???

How hard can it be for Sydney people to learn this old classic:

We hate Melbourne and we hate Melbourne,
we hate Melbourne and we hate Melbourne.
We hate Melbourne and we hate Melbourne;
we are the Melbourne haters!

I think I was born knowing that one.

[hillbilly]

Don't know, it looks a bit complicated.

It got one of them sychophant rythems?

[STUPIDf*g**t]

I'll be taking my camcorder up to Gosford to record the match. I'll convert the chants to mp3 and upload them to net. Yeah

[hillbilly]

This is my church
This is where I heal my hurts

It's a natural grace
Of watching young life shape
It's in minor keys
Solutions and remedies
Enemies becoming friends
When bitterness ends

This is my church
This is my church
This is where I heal my hurts
For tonight
God is a footballer.

Ok! I just went through the whole thread and I must say it turned into complete rubbish in the middle!

Keeping in mind the simplicity factor, some of the ideas put forward and a couple of ideas I had on the way I've collated the following selection of 9 ditties!

I'm going to print them out and practice on the train and I expect all of you to do so too! Because I am a complete and utter arrogant bastard! ;D

(Come on Eileen)
Come on Sydney, well I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you on that pitch my thoughts I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah come on Sydney

roll on where ever you maybe
we are the boys from the bling fc
and we'll f**k you up
where ever you may be
'coz we are the boys from the bling FC

(Team America f**k Yeah)
Sydney FC, f**k YEAH!
Saso Petrovski, f**k YEAH!
David Carney, f**k YEAH!
Alvin Ceccoli, f**k YEAH!
Andrew Packer, YEAH!
Clint Bolton, f**k YEAH!
Ufuk Talay, f**k YEAH!
Dwight Yorke, f**k YEAH!
Sydney FC, f**k YEAH!

(You are my Sunshine)
You are my Sydney, my only Sydney,
You make me happy when skies are grey,
You'll never notice how much I love you,
Please don't take my Sydney away.

(Coming 'round the mountain)
We'll be pissing on all night
When FC wins
Yee Haa!
We'll be pissing on all night
When FC wins
Yee Haa!
We'll be pissing on all night
We'll be pissing on all night
We'll be pissing on all night
When FC wins!

(HeyBoyHeyGirl)
Hey Girls
Hey Boys
Superstar Sydney
Here we go!

(The Adams Family)
Your father is your mother
Your cousin is your brother
It's cos you shag each other
The Mariners family!

Fc fc fc is on fire
Fc fc fc is on fire
We don't need no water
let the mutha farker burn!
BURN MUTHA FARKA!
BURN!!!!!

(Bound for Botany Bay)
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ay,
Singing too-rall, li-oo-rall, li-ad-di-ty
Oh we're bound for the WCC
Oh we're bound for the WCC!


Could someone that knows the tune to Come on Eileen better then me what to have a fiddle with it?

[Moller]

on the theme of come on eileen....

Come on Sydney too loora yay
Come on Sydney too loora yay
Come on Sydney too loora yay
Come on Sydney too loora yay

and so forth.... (slowly getting faster, from the bridge-type part of the song)


Any chant to do with Come On Eileen cannot be a bad thing.

[Der Kaiser]

A bit late but...

Sung to the tune of 'I still call Australia home.'

They've been winning in places all over the world
From Central Coast to Perth and even Dubai
But no matter how far or how wide they roam
The Winner will be Sydney FC!
The Winner will be Sydney FC!

See you at the game... ;D

Sydney's the best and we got the Harbour Bridge, Harbour Bridge, Harbour Bridge.
Melbourne are crap and they've got the Smelly Yarra, Smelly Yarra, Smelly Yarra,
Sydney plays great and we got the Opera House, Opera House, Opera House.
Victory can't play and the've got the Smelly Yarra, Smell Yarra,Smelly Yarra.
Sydney will win and we'll swim at Bondi Beach, Bondi beach, Bondi Beach
But no one wants to swim in the Smelly Yarra, Smelly Yarra, Smelly Yarra.

I haven't worked my way through the middle of this thread yet but, has anyone thought of the Bing Lee slogan for Bingley? Probably about 100 of you

If not, well there it is.

[Simmo79]

If we've been singled out as the club the rest of the league hates/ is jealous of we might as well rip off Millwall's "no one likes us" song.

Tune: ("I am sailing", Rod Stweart)

verse 1
We are Sydney, Super Sydney!
We are Sydney, Sydney FC
We are Sydney, Super Sydney
We are Sydney, Sydney FC.

Verse 2
No one likes us, no one likes us
no one likes us, we don't care
we are Sydney, super Sydney
no one likes us, we don't care.


Others have suggested that we need to get the whole crowd involved (at least occasionally) in the atmosphere, so how about this is the simplest possible chant/song for the non Bay 23ers. Why don’t we just sing “Sydney” to the tune of “Ere we go, ‘ere we go, ‘ere we go”. Of course, it doesn’t fit as nicely as Liverpool or Everton so we’ll have to bash it into shape the same way Arsenal and England do (“Arsernal, Arsernal, Arsernal” and “Ingerland, Ingerland, Ingerland”).

So how about “Syderney, Syderney, Syderney”<br>

[iLLUME]

the best song for the non bay 23 fans is the naaaa naaa naaa nananananaaaaaa, nanananaaaaa sydneeeeeeeeeeeyyyyy. really effective and so easy to understand and sing along too.

Tune: "Hey Jude" by the Beatles

and good thing about that one is that it can be repeated over and over and over, just like the orignal song ;D

ManUre use it for Roy Keane - Naaaa Naaaa Naa NananaNaa NAANANAA
KEEANOOO, etc etc etc

[nickkar]

how about one based on Samaranch's famous line
where the crowd just has to do the Sydney

And the winner is? everyone - Sydney

repeat this a few times and the crowd can get involved.

[Tremontisizd]

I thought of one:

Arsenal fans have a chant for Vieira which goes along the lines of:

Vieira! Whoo-ah-ooh
Vieira! Whoo-ah-ooh
He come's from Senegal
He plays for Arsenal
Vieira! Whoo-ah-ooh

I thought we could modify it for Yorke:

Dwight Yorke! Whoo-ah-ooh
Dwight Yorke! Whoo-ah-ooh
He's from the Carribean
He scores goals for fun
Dwight Yorke! Whoo-ah-ooh
