Bluetintedspecs Posted 22 February 2014 Posted 22 February 2014 In Leicester's fair city Where the girls are so pretty I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone As she wheeled her wheel barrow Through streets by the narrow Singing (Clap clap, clap clap clap) Leicester. I might have got the words wrong, I'm sure someone can correct me. Spot on apart from its streets broad and narrow
AndWhat? Posted 22 February 2014 Posted 22 February 2014 So I'm not the only one who sings Dublin! That's 2 for Dublin and 2 for Leicester. Anyone else want to let us know what they think it is?
Gforce19 Posted 22 February 2014 Posted 22 February 2014 Come on guys you're all forgetting the classics, When you're tired and weary, Your heart will skip a beat, You'll get your fvcking head kicked in, When you come down Filbert Street, You'll walk in to the spion kop, And hear a mighty roar, Fvck off you Forest Bastards, We are the Leicester Boys. Also If I had the wings of an Eagle. And I had the arse of a Crow, I'd fly over Nottingham Forest, And shit on the bastards below,below, Shit on the bastards below,below
Vlad the Fox Posted 22 February 2014 Posted 22 February 2014 Na na naa na Na na naa na A way o Leicester (Bananarama) used to leave hearing this as I walked towards the ground as a kid. Used to start hearing it from about whats now the polar bear.
Aus Fox Posted 22 February 2014 Posted 22 February 2014 To Garry Flicroft at Filbo after he'd been caught sleeping around Does your missues know you're here The first year we were in te prem, after arsenal sang your shit and you know you are all game we went 2-1 up and sang we're shit and we're beating you.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 So I'm not the only one who sings Dublin! That's 2 for Dublin and 2 for Leicester. Anyone else want to let us know what they think it is? Dublin for me
Aus Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Dublin for me Defo Leicester, why would we sing about Dublin?
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Defo Leicester, why would we sing about Dublin?It's the origins of the song Aus FoxThere used to be a large Irish community in Leicester in the 60/70s I think and this is when the song was first sung at City games (so my uncles told me) as I only went to games from the late 70s to early 80s
Burmesefox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 The original song of Molly Malone is "Dublin's fair city", however, ours is a version and it's "leicester's fair city". 100%.
Burmesefox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Those were the days is a great song. Would get everyone bouncing! It's quite apt as it's a Ukranian folk song by the soldiers at war reminiscing about times of peace........ Popularised by Mary Hopkins on the 70s.
AndWhat? Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Leicester 4 - 3 Dublin Still doesn't convince me!
Vlad the Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 The original song of Molly Malone is "Dublin's fair city", however, ours is a version and it's "leicester's fair city". 100%. Agree with this. In all my years of going down there I have never heard it sung 'Dublin's fair city'.
AndWhat? Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Agree with this. In all my years of going down there I have never heard it sung 'Dublin's fair city'. I've never heard it sung Leicester.... Maybe the younger generation (me) sing Dublin and the older generation (you?) sing Leicester?
Vlad the Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Hey, less of the old. Cheeky young whippersnapper.
AndWhat? Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Hey, less of the old. Cheeky young whippersnapper. no offence intended! It's Dublin 4 all now!
Bluetintedspecs Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Defo Leicester, why would we sing about Dublin? 100% this, it has always been and always will be.... In Leicesters fair city.
Rutland Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 The Jamie Vardy song 'bring your vodka and your charlie' is completely ridiculous and needs to be ditched. The drugs reference is too strong - why on earth would we want to target Vardy ourselves? Can't imagine what he thinks when he hears it. Any ideas for something to replace it?

I doubt he goes home and cries about it
Stadt Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Vardy is obviously annoyed about the song, it's clearly affecting his performance.
Vlad the Fox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 100% this, it has always been and always will be.... In Leicesters fair city. Leicester 5 v 4 Dublin. You're not singing any more.
Burmesefox Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 100% leicester's fair city. Always has been. Bit like WYS. People get the words wrong. When youre crying you bring on the rain so stop that SIGHING be happy again. It's not stop that crying.
David Lowe Posted 23 February 2014 Posted 23 February 2014 Leicester Leicester Leicester Leicester Leicester Leicester Leicester. Straight to the point and no tricky lyrics to remember.
Kitchandro Posted 24 February 2014 Posted 24 February 2014 WTF are some of you on about? It's Leicester's fair city, because we're Leicester. The only people singing Dublin are wrong. My favourite football chant has always been 'Wemberleeeeey, Wemberleeeey, we're the famous Leicester City and we're going to Wemberley'. Reading this thread makes me realise just how many good songs we have. Why do we struggle so much for something to sing? Ridiculous.
