Genius Moj! Some Walter Scott in there?

I do have a copy of 'Ivanhoe' by my bed, Heb...

Just recited to Mrs Heb. You know without reiterating last nights comments (re:interruption from TEG) there really is something special about View's thread. Just think, a random idea late last night and now an epic ballad......where next ?

Hinton: I've been toying with asking them to let me sing 'Nothinghamshire' before the Forest game, but I'd probably get lynched!

Moj do you have a link to the lyrics tor your tome about our cousins from the Kingdom of the Snotts

um....let me see...I'll dig them out. The lyrics were of course written by the legend that was MapRead...

Mojaca:-
Absolute genius Sir

Brilliant......

But could you incorporate EVERY single aspect of this thread into verse?

Full lyrics:

♪♪ Who let the red dogs out?♪♪

♪♪Nothinghamshire
Oh Rams felling trees in the east
My desire is always to win here
In Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Twelve miles we’ve travelled
And mulch have we seen
Hulse, Nyatanga,Commons
Davies, Green
Black and white chainsaws
The woodland on fire
As Nige carried us home from
Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Nothinghamshire
Oh Rams felling trees in the east
My desire is always to win here
In Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Sheep to Snottingham
On trains, foot and tyre
It’s February
Two thousand and nine
Two nights we sang like
A heavenly choir
Of the time of our lives
Here in Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Nothinghamshire
Oh Rams felling trees in the east
My desire is always to win here
In Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Smiles in the Bridgford
The Trent End in pain
Groans in the Brian Clough
Tears in the Main
Flickering embers glowed
Higher and higher
As Nige carried us home from
From Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Nothinghamshire
Oh Rams felling trees in the east
My desire is 'Stihl' to cut logs here
Oh Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪Nothinghamshire
Oh Rams felling trees in the east
My desire is always to win here
In Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Shottinghamshire♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Not-in-game-pyre♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Shottinghamshire♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Nothinghamshire♪♪

♪♪La, la, la, liars
Nothinghamshire♪♪

(...this is romeo delta oscar to base,
the disturbance is contained,
we are the derby, over...)

Such poetry. Rousing words. I'm welling up.

I watched a recording of the whole match this morning. I never normally do that if I've watched from the stands. But as with the posts here so with the football on show. Such poetry!!

Larry

I've watched the 2nd half three times already!

View: a poem that long would rival Homer's Odyssey!

But more in the style of a Norse Saga

Would one more comment make a difference?

Should I make a for 2k?

Who are we getting in our FA Cup stocking??????????

Where are the balls

Home please

Against................Chelsea

Derby play Chelsea

Beowulf -

Lo! We have listened to many a lay
Of the Spear-Rams fame, their splendours of old,
Their mighty princes and martial deeds!
Many a mead-hall......

It goes on to say "after him thereafter an heir was born"

But probably leave it at that!

Live on the telly box for sure.

What Beowulf?

I'm one happy Ram. About time we got a decent draw

Chelsea: Bring it on.

Delighted to report that out little hero is home.

Bedraggled but very proud, big tea and a good night's sleep and he will be fine.

Thank you all for your help and concern

On which note, Los Endos?

I do worry sometimes.

Don't understand the draw. If the seeding is correct, we should meet Chelsea or Arsenal in the final

Talking of songs. Apparently I struggled to coerce the passengers on the bus home last night in joining me in a chorus of a whole lotta Rosie.

Cat - beyond me but someone will help. 666 regards this round as virtually a bye anyway.

1150 anyone?
