10 May 00 - 09:04 AM (#225749) Subject: RE: Lyr Add: War Songs of Newcastle United From: GUEST,Roger the skiffler Conrad, pet, as a Brummie (and a Villa supporter in my youth!)I think I understand all the references in your songs but the US 'catters will probably need a 20-page illustrated booklet to get the full benefit! A masterly work ( a thesis in there somewhere!). I have always sung "Blaydon Races" but you'd wince at my Brummie attempts at Geordie! (but then everyone winces when I sing!). RtS |

11 May 00 - 04:20 AM (#226285) Subject: RE: Lyr Add: War Songs of Newcastle United From: GUEST,George Henderson NSC Blaydon Races was written by Geordie Ridley and verse 5 should read "we flew across the Chine bridge reet into Blaydon Toon" The Chine Bridge as far as I no was a local name for the Scotswood bridge which spans the Tyne between what was then the village of Scotswood and the Town of Blaydon. Nice thread though, Brings back a lot of memories.

11 May 00 - 09:43 AM (#226365) Subject: RE: Lyr Add: War Songs of Newcastle United From: Conrad Bladey (Peasant- Inactive) Ah! Yes! That is in the Ridley version but this is the "football" version! You will find the other version on my pages. The football adaptation.... What a wonderful cultural perspective eh! It is a pitty that it is now being crushed by the politically correct establishment.... So it is important that the tradition be recorded as it is still in the heads of some who sung uncensored and unoppressed. Conrad |

11 May 00 - 10:58 AM (#226409) Subject: RE: Lyr Add: War Songs of Newcastle United From: Ritchie I once posted a to a thread asking if 'chanting or singing' actually happened at 'sports gatherings' in the US of A ?? I'm not sure if it does. There is a lot of humour within the chants. Unfortunately because now everyone is sitting down in their own seat and probably not even sitting beside their mates we seem to be losing some of that special atmosphere added to the large nos. of the corporate 'suits' at the matches it's not quite the same. There has been lot's of times, especially at the 'Toon' when the singing has been better than the football. Actually Conrad I've never thought of it tradionally but you are absolutely right. I cringe when I hear 'the young-ins' sing the Harry Roberts chant, I expect that even some of the constabulary have no idea what they are singing about... I tell you what I'll sing a song in your honour at St James Park on Sunday.....( Thora Hird & Songs of Praise eat your heart out ) regards Ritchie |
