Nick Carle Versus Mary Poppins

Recommended Posts

My feverish brain has just exploded a perfect ditty for our antipodean midfield dynamo, to the tune of the Mary Poppins favourite:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Super Carle from down under will take City to promotion

Even though he's bronzed a bit it's not through tanning lotion

Every time he's on the pitch he's causing a commotion

Super Carle from down under will take City to promotion

Slight problem with the scanning in lines 1 & 4 for me there.......other than that, I like it!

Try 'us' instead of 'City'.

Here's hoping he does it as well. :fingerscrossed:

First and last lines have one too many syllables, making the song hard to scan and sing ;p

I assumed originally that this was a who should play in central midfield thread. Would be funny if LJ's nickname was Mary Poppins!

Nice try but not simple enough...I don't think otions work at the end of the sentance.

Plus it all sounds a bit gay...bronzed/tanning lotion etc

How about:

Super Carle he is from Oz and winning us promotion,

Even though he's bronzed a bit, it's not from tanning lotion,

Every time he's on the pitch he's causing a commotion,

Super Carle he is from Oz and winning us promotion...!

And don't forget:

Umm-diddle-iddle-iddle, umm-diddle-i,

Umm-diddle-iddle-iddle, umm-diddle-i...

In the unlikely event of Carle receiving a stern telling off or a card from the ref, or making a hefty challenge (& Careys got the armband on)

- a good natured rendition of..

Tie Yer Kangaroo Down Louise..

Tie Yer Kangaroo Down, (all together now)

Tie Yer Kangaroo Down Louise..

Tie Yer Kangaroo Down!!

...should raise a few smiles around the ground. :)

(even better after NC's just scored a spectacular goal or done something special)

I am from Oz and am a big Nicky Carle fan!! (hence the username)

... please ... please ... no kangaroos!!

I've lost our old song from the Newcastle Jets - but I will try to find (or remember) it!

... oh and the tan - he's of Chilean descent ... so it ain't a tan ... but I guess you knew that and I have just made a goose of myself. ;)

Ya, Its a very catchy tune, everyones heard of it, good rhyming meaningful lyrics and Eamer likes it too!

Lets hope we get promotion :shutup:

I've just cut a 12 inch remix version for night-time listening...

Super Carle has all the tricks to make you look atrocious

He comes from Oz, he's bronze and fit and uses hocus pocus

Everytime he's on the pitch you'll sit up and take notice

Super Carle has all the tricks to make you look atrocious

You made international news! Your song was published in the Newcastle Herald, Aus, haha.

Carle playing muse for City; Sidelines; [Late Edition]

Sidelines EDITED BY MICHAEL PARRIS. Herald. Newcastle, N.S.W.: Feb 11, 2008. pg. 44

FORMER Newcastle Jet Nicky Carle is attracting plenty of positive comments from fans on websites since his move to Premier League hopefuls Bristol City.

The general belief is that the reigning A-League player of the year, along with another recent signing, striker Dele Adebola, could be the final piece in the promotion jigsaw for third placed City.

As evidence of his popularity, Sidelines submits this song fans have come up with to the tune of Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious:

Super Carle from Oz is firing

City to promotion

Even though he's bronzed a bit

its not through tanning lotion

Every time he's on the pitch

he's causing a commotion

Super Carle from Oz is firing

City to promotion

I've had a thorough search for you Mark. I can't find anything in the Newcastle Herald nor the Herald Sun (Melbourne) which has run a few features on Nicky Carle, including breaking the news that he was signing for us.

I have not tried: -

Barossa & Light Herald (South Australia)

Cootamundra Herald (NSW)

Croatian Herald (National)

Halls Creek Herald (The Kimberley Region, Western Australia)

Hrvatski Vjesnik / Croatian Herald [Croatian & English available]

Labor Herald (Canberra, ACT)

Riverine Herald (Echuca, Victoria)

The Sun-Herald (Sydney, NSW)

Here is the complete list, I know you like research (particularly if you get a mention ;) ):-
