Disappointed today

[3pm]

I expect at least one blast of 'Warburton's a fanny' every game.

Nothing today. We must all do better.

I was at a smoker last night. John Rowbotham was a speaker. He said hands up Celtic supporters in room only 1. Said same for Rangers there was a few. Same for Hertz there was a few. Then when he said any Hibs fans in tonight my torrets kicked in and I blasted oot in a room of 100 folk I didnae ken, Warburtons A Fanny. Place was in stitches. I'm with you on that one. But I think you will find it sung mostly at away days. The rendition at Dunfermline last week was great.

I think the Warburton song is & should stay a Hibs song forever more.
Many moons ago we used to sing YNWA. What did that have to do with Hibs.

I've never understood why we would sing about a team in a higher division than we are when we're not playing them.:cb

The song is about an individual. So your saying we cannae sing aboot Hertz either this year.

Is the Warburton song not a Hibs song?

Is the Warburton song not a Hibs song?

I would say yeshttp://www.hibs.net/images/smilies/top%20marks.gif

He's a fanny.

It will be OK when we play them in the SC final.:wink:

[Highland_Hibee]

How can anyone say the Warburton song is not a Hibs song? Is that the same as 1902 not being a Hertz song? It's about an individual who represented an establishment that deemed themselves superior to all and would never succumb to the likes of us. We then went on to very much show them otherwise.

It's not a Hibs song, it's an anti-The Rangers song. Yeah, it was a laugh for a wee while but now I just cringe every time I hear it.

The cup final was the greatest day I've had as a Hibs supporter and I'd prefer to sing about Hibs rather than the manager of the runners up.

:agree::agree: Why are we singing about a manager and team not even in our league, in all senses. It is embarrassing

[Pretty Boy]

The Warburton song isn't really just about him or Rangers though is it? A pretty major part of the song is about Hibs winning the Scottish Cup.

Agree absolutely nothing embarrassing about it. Sums up the day very well. :greengrin

[WeeRussell]

Yeah it didn't get a rendition at the game but I am pleased to report the whole dancefloor were singing it in a nightclub I was in later that night.

I didn't find it embarrassing - and apparently neither did the one gentleman who replied by singing a chorus of 'the sash' in response :rolleyes:

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

Haha how can folk say it's not a Hibs song? It's a song about the day we won the Scottish cup. The greatest day in the history of our club. Just because it mentions the manager of our opponents that we beat doesn't mean it's not relevant to us.
We've had literally dozens of songs over the years about Hearts players, managers and chairmans that mention Hibs far less than the Warburton song.

[WhileTheChief..]

I see the Still Game clip in my head every time I hear the song. Guaranteed to bring a smile to the face.

Was just thinking that ma self. Cheer up JJ
Cheer up CL. Cheer up GR. Cheer up RN. Oh what can it mean to a sad Jambo ******** & a s***e fitbaw team. Been sung every year we play them & no mention of hibs,hibees or hibernian in the song

Spot on. Far less relevance to Hibs than the Warburton song. Same for songs about Romanov, Mercer, Skacel, Craig Thomson, Fulton being ugly or Jamie Walkers sisters pants.

Yeah, but these songs only get sung when we play the Jambos. The Warburton song is sung whoever we play.

Each to their own though, if people want to sing it they will, if not, it will die away like so many songs before it.

[lucky]

We hate Glasgow Rangers we hate Celtic too is that regarded as an acceptable song by the X factor judges of Hibs songs? Come on tae ****, the Warbarton song is a Hibs classic. It commemorates that great day and should be sung loud and proud every week. It went down a storm a Lewis "both cup winners medals" Stevenson testimonial dinner

Astonished

Astonished

It's mental isn't it?

I'm still trying to work out how the song would work if it wasn't about Hibs as some seem to be claiming. Without overthinking what is at the end of the day just a football song; the whole thing is held together by the HIBS Scottish Cup win.

If it wasn't a Hibs song how would it end? It wouldn't even be sung at all. Had we lost at Hampden (which we didn't in case anyone forgot) then no one would have made up that song. The song will last long after Mr Respectful has departed Ibrox as it celebrates HIBS beating his team to win the cup.

Your going to get in trouble wi the song police. Warbarton? Is this a new one you've made up.

Fair enough and I'm not saying I want us singing it every week. It does get more crowd engagement than some of our other ditties though. I sit around the half way line in the East and that and the SJM song are the only two I really hear filter down past me onto the right.

Didn't hear it once on Saturday so it's probably had it time. I'm sure we will save it up for when we next face the SC losers.
