What's the tune and I'll tell you.

Loosely based around a sloop john b rhyming pattern


Roberto had a dream,
To build our football team.
We had no money so we signed the players on loan.
We play from the back,
With Ross in attack
The school of science is on its way back.
 
And they gave us Dixie, Lawton, Alex Young & Kay
They gave us Harvey, Howard Kendall, Alan Ball, Sharpie & Gray
And most of football greats
Have past through goodisons gates
To play football the school of science way
 
That's what I have never been able to find out.

My arl grannie was from Belfast and she used to sing her version of the Belfast Celtic version to me when I was a small boy and to this day I still sing her version when I join in at the match.

Sure it's a grand old team to play for,
sure it's a rare old team to play.

And if you read it's history,
it's enough to make your heart go boom, boom, boom.

We don't care if the money's right or wrong,
darn the hare we care.

For we only know that there's gonna be a show
and the Belfast Celtic will be there.

Ah, happy days.... I miss me arl nan :)

Great post........

so it seems that GOT originated with Belfast Celtic ... not a bad etymology!!! ;)
