Yes, a great come back. It was a spur of the moment decision to go, finished work about the right time, sunny evening, so why not celebrate Thrum Halls death. Halifax fans singing youre not singing any more when they were something like 24- something up, and then such satisfaction to sing it back to them what seemed only a few minutes later.

I remember this game well, I was 16 and one of the best games I'd ever seen, so many great players looking back, wonder what happened to some like Scales, O'Loughlin, Bradley and Peacock.
Stevo "McNamamara made a meal of it" - somethings haven't changed
Also Eddie" Tomlinson makes a run, plays the ball, now with Tomlinson" - Was Lowes who made the run and played the ball, face palm.

In fairness, and it does make me smile, whenever Leeds are on sky at Headingley - which is a lot - they do sing that "father's gun" garbage to whoever they're playing; Wigan, Saints, Cas, Warrington, Hull FC. I'm pretty sure one fella even tried a rendition against London...

If Campbell had any bottle he should have had a word with him about it.

I don't watch when the game's from Headingley, because of that infernal band.

At least one of the holiday fixtures at Christmas/New Years or Easter were against Fax when I was growing up. At least when they were both in the same divisions of course.
Historically Leeds had the Hunslet rivalry in the post WWII boom period of the game plus Wakefield and Cas who would be considered fierce derby rivals, especially in fallow periods for Northern.

Not trying to start an argument but Bulls Fans namely the young kids sing this regularly towards us too.
Both as bad as each other.

| That's correct, both sets of fans do the 'father's gun' song, though I've only ever heard Bulls' fans singing it against Leeds. Even the [cringemaking imo, in games not involving the Rhinos 'we hate Rhinos', is fine in games against Leeds and adds to the atmosphere.
As for the soccer song, that ought to stay at Elland Rd.

| They should bring back some of the old songs, more wit and scorn than violence.
My first choice, to the tune of 'My Bonny Lies Over The Ocean' if you need to Yotube it,
Quote "[iIf I 'ad the wings of a sparrow
If I 'ad the arrse of a crow
I'd fly over Rhino supporters
And sh=#FFFFFF[size=5.[/sizeit on the basstards below... below..
[Chorus
Sh=#FFFFFF[size=5.[/sizeit on,
sh=#FFFFFF[size=5.[/sizeit on,
sh=#FFFFFF[size=5.[/sizeit on the basstards below[/i"'"
Of course, while self-powered flight would be interesting if unlikely, and to be clear I don't [iactually[/i advocate defecating on opposition supporters, and would not [iactually[/i participate in this activity even if they crack the flying thing, but it was always a song that I couldn't help laughing at the punchline, and invariably well-received.

| That's an old chant, not heard that one for a long time.
Be it at Football or Rugby.
