Eddie Hitler Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Errrr Doobie Thank you Elvis, that's a piece of street argot that I have failed to pick up in my travels through modern culture.

Could well have a point there, but I'm certain it was around before Galliers day. Cracking little ditty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbie Durbie Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I can first remember it back in the Freight Rover Trophy Southern Final against Hereford in 1985/86. Quality song had their shitty little wooden stand rocking along with 'One man went to burn down Twerton' good memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
