Leeds United Fans Fight Back
Leeds, West Yorkshire, UK – 05/10/07
Fans of Leeds United Football Club today joined the fight back against the injustices recently suffered by team by releasing an updated version of a club anthem. The club was this year docked 10 points on entering Administration and a further 15 points on exiting Administration in a draconian measure imposed by the English Football League.
On the pitch the current squad has made a blistering start to the new season by equaling a club record of 7 successive wins. The song ‘Glory, Glory Leeds United’ was originally a hit for Ronnie Hilton in 1968 and became a cult terrace classic.
Glory, Glory Leeds United (2007)
Manchester can rave about the Taggart and the Sven
And there's Liverpool and Arsenal and Spurs and all the rest
But let us sing the praises of the lads we love the best
As Leeds go marchin' on
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
They're the greatest football team in all the land
Risdale and his goldfish put us in Division 3
Then the Football League community deducted us 15
They chopped poor Wisey's balls off and they hung ‘em from a tree
But Leeds go marchin’ on
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
They're the greatest football team in all the land
Now just the 8 wins later and they don’t look quite as smug
Thought they could kill the Whites off but forgot to pull the plug
The rest of English football thinks were just a bunch of thugs
But Leeds go marchin’ on
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
They're the greatest football team in all the land
We’ll soon be back on top and then when Rooney comes to Leeds
You’ll have to lock your gran up ‘cos its loving that he needs
We’ll open up the brothels so that Shrek can sew his seeds
As Leeds go marchin’ on
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
They're the greatest football team in all the land
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
Glory, glory Leeds United
They're the greatest football team in all the land
