The Guardian: Football songs championships

[Aztec Hammer]

Just saw this article. Apparently Bubbles has made the semi finals. For a bit of fun, everyone on here should vote, you don't have to sign up or any of that. Guessing the other 'semi final' probably involves YNWA.

Shoddy work from the Guardian. Everyone knows it was the 1975 Cup Final Squad. I remember there was some poppy version of IFBB released in 1980, but the crowd soon let Bill Remfry know that it would be best to turn it off.

8.4% Jorge Ben – Umbabarauma
91.6% The 1980 West Ham FA Cup final squad – I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles

Just thinking that myself, I've got 2 WHU 7" singles at home one is the 75 Bubbles and the other 'West Ham United'

Think this would have been much better if it was just football songs in general, not specific team singles released and stuff like that. But then, would it be a foregone conclusion that us and Liverpool would make the final?

Only because those Celtic mongs will vote for it too

Looks like the final will be against either Shakira or The Fall?!

And in the quarter final it says the 1975 West Ham squad, which beat QPR, but in the semi it's saying 1980.

Good stuff

Wasn't the current version of I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles for the 1975 FA Cup Final, not 1980? PEDANTOMETER OFF THE SCALES.

The final is underway!

Bubbles takes an early lead with 24 hours left to go. Can't say I've even heard the song we're up against, but it's managed to claim a third of the votes.
