Recommended Posts

Original 'Well songs/chants:

 

" Now the claret and amber is soaring

As our five forwards are scoring

The football is swell

They play for the 'Well

Side by side " ( And if you remember that one, I'm not the only one showing his age.)

 

 

" As I was walkin down Copland Road

I heard a mighty clamour

For the boys in blue

Got beat five-two

By the boys in claret and amber " ( And it was at Ibrox! )

 

The Jackie McInally chant:

 

" Maacinally - hey!

Maacinally - hey, hey!

Macinally, Macinally, hey, hey, hey! "

 

" E for B and Jim McCabe! "

Old man Robert had a farm... Zimbab-Zimbab-we? :ph34r:

 

Long before your time mate, strange one I know. Think it was a Well fan who travelled from Dundee to watch us everywhere in Div 1 at the beginning of the 80's who came up with that one. He would shout Zimbabwe and we'd all go Ooooh !

 

OK, accuse me of blowing my own trumpet, but my fav creation - based on a major incident up Jervi after a midweek Motherwell -v Hearts game in 79ish - and to the tune of Boney M's .... Mary's Boy Child ....... was:-

 

Long time ago in Motherwell,

the Hearts fans they did pass,

and all you could hear at Fir Park,

was the sound of breaking glass,

so listen all you Jamtart fans,

just turn yer bus about,

coz you might get into Motherwell

but you wont get fukken out !

 

Can you hear the Well fans sing,

The Jamtarts ran away,

And we will fight for evermore, to watch the Well play.

 

 

 

Now before you all start throwing the PC patter at me, it was a different time back then, most songs were aimed at opposing teams/fans.

 

My fav Well song ever comes from the mid 70's, and was the 1st one I can remember learning by heart, standing down the front of the Shed listening to the big bad mental boys behind me, (the Tiny X, EYN, YMT, Bowry, etc.,), as it was a real anthem back then. KB and I sang it in the pub in Nancy, with very few joining in. Won't do it all, its too long, think the tune was Liverpool Lulla and hopefully some of you may remember ...................,

 

For ever and ever,

We'll follow the Well,

To highest heaven,

To deepest hell........................

When did the ooh ahh stop in Motherwell, Motherwell (to tune of here we go)

 

I remember as a kid in the 80s/90/s it was

Motherwell,

Motherwell,

Motherwell,

Ooh ahh

 

Since I was young has been a revelation, 1st decent non player related song in years!!

 

I liked joe wark knew mo farah that was getting sung in Valencia too, that was funny, topical, and has actions (the mobot I believe it's called?) which is an M, which is for Motherwell.
