‘Ossie’s Dream’ sang Tottenham Hotspur
keeping ‘81’ FA Cup dreams alive.
‘Here We Go’ sang Everton FC
with Howard, back in 85.
Going it alone in song,
in 87 were Chris & Glenn.
Their ‘Diamond Lights’ at No.12,
just missing out on the top ten.
‘Glory, Glory Man United’
reached 13 in the charts in 83,
but with ‘Come on The Reds’, in 94
finally at No.1 was Manchester Utd FC.
In 72. came ‘Blue Is The Colour’
making it to No.5 for Chelsea FC
In the 90’s, ‘No one can stop us now’ & ‘Blue Day’
and then ‘Blue Tomorrow’, in 2000, finally.
In 78, ‘We’ve got the Whole World in our hands’
sang Nottingham Forest FC & Paper Lace.
In 70 ‘Back Home’ No.1 for the England World Cup Squad.
And in 90, ‘World in Motion’, again taking a No.1 place.
‘Anfield Rap (Red machine in full alert)
in 88 shot up to No. 3 in this chart mix,
then ‘Pass & Move (It’s The Liverpool Groove)
reached No.4 by The Boot Room Boys of 96.
So many more songs to choose from;
some more in tune than others.
But the sentiment always the same,
Footy folk, a solid band of sisters & brothers.
