Meat pie, sausage roll.....
Chris Applegate
Anyone else heard the unofficial England World Cup song? Basically it's
some bloke in a broad Northern accent saying:
Meat pie,
Sausage roll,
Come on England,
Score a goal!
Absolutely f***ing hilarious! The bloke's name is Grandad Roberts of
something like that. What it lacks in musical sense or inventiveness it
makes up for in sheer terrace catchiness. Can't wait to hear it in France.

It was originally
Meat pie ,
sausage roll,
Come on Oldham,
Giz a goal!
Chorus:
Oooooooohhhhhhhh! we got a corner (repeat)
It's been played at Boundary Park for some time after originating on
Pete Mitchell and Geoff Lloyd's show on Key 103 (Manc radio station)
I'm not sure it will take off as a World Cup song as I think some of
the 'finer' points may be lost on our southern brethren.

some FA councillor or other was wholly in favour of it, and that the
bookies had slashed the odds on it being the official song. Apparently
the bloke sung it on the Big Breakfast and Sky Live 6 last week.

Parsley! - The original song is about Oldham:
Meat-pie, sausage roll, come on Oldham, give us a goal!

# Cuhm on Inglund, gizzus a goal,
[repeat]
# Ooh, wif got a corner
# Something else that I can't remember, by the guy with the squeaky
voice, dressed as Elvis.
It's done by Grandpa Roberts (featuring Elvis - the shrill voiced, Alan
Ball sounding young man). I doubt that any England fans will end up
singing it during the World Cup. We're English, we have a sense of
taste. Can you seriously expect England supporters to adopt a crap song,
written by a bunch of prats - take Euro '96 and "3 Lions".... Oh god -
so what's that last verse again?

Yes, He was Jilted John. My mate claims to have been his friend at
school in Sheffield.
