Great times great songs

One of my sister's boyfriends told me that in the 60s they had a chant to the tune of 'The Might Quinn' just replacing the words 'The Everton' at the end of the line. Can anyone confirm this?

Those were the days, magic memories.

In fact .......

those were the days my friend,
we took the Stretford end ,
we took the shed, the North bank Highbury.
We took the Geordies too, we'd fight and never lose
We are the street of everton FC!!!!!

Couple of alternative endings there but that is the politest version I think.

And yes.... everton are magic Everton are magic na na na na, na na na na!!!!

I guess you will recall another popular ditty from the 70's that began...

"We don't carry hatchets..."

The younger generation really can't appreciate what the atmosphere in the Street End once was. Sometimes uncomfortable: often memorable.

I am personally in form favour of brining about safe standing in the PL to bring some of that atmosphere back.
