Who sang YNWA first?

This thread is dangerously close to bringing the place down to F365 forum levels.

Mr Alan and Tauren are big giant babies, it's a song, who the f*ck cares.

The first people to sing it were in a girlie musical, go and support them.

Archimedes-i care because YNWA is part of Liverpool history and is one of the things that makes our club special imo, Utd fans trying to rape that heritage claiming they sang it first pisses me off. sad but true.

ah here

Mr Alan wrote: »

I cant deal in hypothetical situations that are that out there. There is no way that Utd sang it first. Despite wat Tauren might want say.

hate to be pedantic, but you dont know that. There is no way you could, unless you were there. By the same logic, there is no way tauren can prove united sung it first

You're probably one of those annoying people who go around saying, "its only a game" after someones team loses, correct?

ok event, i agree, but my explanation of the origins of the song in the football world actually makes sense, whereas Taurens one requires more faith than christianity!

ps.you dont hate being pedantic, you love it! closet manc if ever there was one

Unless there is a recording of the crowd for every match anywhere since that song was first sang, then there is no way you can be "right", at most, like your sponsor, "probably".

Mr Alan

Event! i think you being so pedantic all the time has spread to other users!

Mad_Max

Jaysus just noticed a tonne of arguments about this on youtube too. ffs

PHB

If people don't want to read about stuff like this, don't look at the thread If people want to discuss this sort of stuff, let them
Personally I really couldn't care less

I sincerely doubt a song from a relatively obscure Rogers and Hammerstein musical was sung to any great extent by football fans. Its as likely as modern fans breaking into a spot of Evita or Les Miserables. It was only really with the popularity stemming from the Pacemakers version that the song spread to the terraces (primarily at Anfield) and became an anthem of sorts.

Aren't ManYoo fans happy enough with "United Road"? That's their anthem. I know it inspires the shít out of me.

Thread pwned.

And LOL.

Doesn't matter if United sang it first, they still boo it now...

Just letting people know i had nothing to do with the start of this thread, i think i posted that comment in the midweek prem thread and then the next thing i notice is a seperate thread with my op, so i didnt want to go and start another flame war. This forum is full of utd vs pool threads already so didnt want to start another one.

I enjoy a bit of banter but sometimes it goes too far and petty in here sometimes, just my 2 cents anyhow.

I was watching the Spurs v Man City FA Cup Final replay from 1982 a while back on ESPN Classic and the Spurs fans were singing it.

raven136

who cares if united sang it first,we(pool fans)think its ours,we are famous for it and it means the most to us.

Sadly celtic fans sing it better these days but ill always see fields of athenry as their song.

Mr Alan

Utd Fans Did Not Sing It First!

Mr Alan

and Celtic fans sing it better? pfft! they have Chelsea Dagger playing when they score a goal ffs!

Ladies and Gentlemen.....

ah wat a night

homerjay2005

to be honest, i dont care who sang it first. i dont like the song. leave liverpool and celtic sing it away, doesn matter one but to me. united have more than enough songs to sing. its not a united song and i hope i never have to hear it at old trafford. have heard it there before when celtic were there and it wasnt long being drowned out.

if united sang it first, then so be it, the fact of the matter is, that united fans hate it and it is not a united song.

i predict, this will be sung for the majority of the 90 minutes next sunday week. i was at the lille game last year and i dont know hoe they did, but lads stood up for 15 mins solid and sung it over and over again.
