Golden Balls Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 Obviously for MK Dons and Leyton Orient the main chant will be "One Markus Liebherr" but I think we need a few more to show our thanks as well as a 'win the league for Markus' chant Any ideas?

Michelle Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 There is one that has been doing the rounds at away games... does involve slating the skates and 'arry though, so maybe not quite so appropriate as a tribute unless we change the last bit!

Golden Balls Posted 11 August, 2010 Author Share Posted 11 August, 2010 How about changing Michael Svenssons song to something fitting for Markus? Svensson song was to the tune of 'I love you baby..' Oh Michael Svensson You are the love of my life Oh Michael Svensson I'll let you **** my wife Oh Michael Svensson We want ginger hair tooooo Maybe... Oh Markus Liebherr You came and saved our club oh Markus Liebherr (something here) Oh Markus Liebherr We will always miss yoooou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFKA South Woodford Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 Just the chorus to "hey Jude" to "La la la Liebherr" Like that, nice and uplifting 'which is what he did for our club, seems right that we should remember him that way', with the whole ground getting involved it would sound fantastic and bring a tear to the eye. Or possibly changing the lyrics to 'You take me up' by the Thompson twins to something more fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Smith Posted 12 August, 2010 Share Posted 12 August, 2010 Personally, with our ability to sing OWTS, I think a slow rendition of Amazing grace would not only be fitting but fairly apt also. Amazing grace! (How sweet the sound) That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. Followed by some Liebherr chants.

derry Posted 12 August, 2010 Share Posted 12 August, 2010 If you want everybody in the stadium to sing it has to be one that everybody knows and feels comfortable with. Once the noisy side starts it off unless the rest know the words they won't/can't join in so it will just be the usual Northam/back of the Itchen north. There really is only one tune WTSGMI that everybody would sing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericofarabia Posted 12 August, 2010 Share Posted 12 August, 2010 Stand up if you love Liebherr. To make it less formal ... " Stand up if you love Markus " is a definite winner ..... simple ... you can join in at any stage, and , well, just about sums up how about every single one of us feels about the man. We loved him for saving us, we loved his unassuming nature and more than anything else we loved the fact that he loved our club and wanted to return it to its rightful place. And finally ... watching him take photos of the team collecting the cup at Wembley .... he was like a proud grandfather taking pictures of his grandchildren at a school sports day. That wasn't pounds shillings and pence registering in his head ... that was pride at something that was a part of his legacy. For that I will gladly stand up and sing till I have no voice left!! Orient at home is going to be a very emotional return for me indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
