[Canary Boy 0]

I was listening to the commentary tonight and I could hear the crowd singing...Chicory Tip - Son of my Father...obviously with changed lyrics. Was it us singing it or the Orient fans and if so, what was it about and what were the lyrics.I must say, it cracked me up....the only thing that did make me smile tonight! :-)Cheers anyone in advance.Canary Boy

It was the first one I ever bought, luckily my musical tastes have improved somewhat since the dark ages Smithy.

Remember the Jimmy Bone song too. Happy days.

The state you were in last night Smithy when Kathy and i saw you there is no surprise you did not hear it.You had been drinking when you were not thirsty and were full up! Definately had rubber legs and liquid hips and most certainly loose fitting teeth.
