Anyone remember the words to this ?

I know it started with an low "Oohhhhhh" rising in volume and then in to "Andy Gregory packed his bags and said goodbye to the Widnes ... Off he went with a trumperty-trump, sulk ! sulk ! sulk !" (It was sung around the time of Gregory's big money move from Widnes to Wigan)

Then there was a bit about "Kevin Dick was calling far, far away ..." (Dick was the Leeds scrum half at the time and one of the few players with the measure of Gregory at scrum-half)

Having said that, I also recall a verse where "Ray French was calling, far, far away ..."

Anyone who can put the full song on here, much appreciated ....

It went.
Andy Gregory packed his bags
And said goodbye to Widnes
Off he went with a big fat cheque
Big fat cheque

Kevin Dick was calling far,far away
He got the ball and ran like hell
And Gregory ran away.

"Leigh are weeds, Leigh are weeds, Leigh are weeds", as we put 40 past them. Guess you had to be there but it made me chuckle!

My favourite of recent times was away at Cas:

We've only got five.
We've only got fi....ve.
You've got six fingers.
....we've only got five.

Here's one from the Admiral's song book, for all you harking back to those heady October nights in Manchester not-so-very-long-ago ....

(With the utmost respect to the Beach Boys, the Barmy Army etc.)

Tune : Sloop John B (trad.arr)

We all came over from Leeds
The South Stand Army and me
Around Manchester town we did roam
Four quid for a pint, forty quid for a seat
But with Sinfield as captain, we'll take the cup home

So hoist up the Rhinos sail
See how the mainsail sails
Call for the captain ashore
Take the cup home
We'll take the cup home
We'll take the cup home
With Sinfield as captain
We'll take our cup home

Cunningham's a broken man
Without Sculthorpe he has no plan
He tries to carry the team all on his own
He's losing his hair
But we don't care
'Cos with Sinfield as captain will take our cup home

So hoist up the Rhinos sail
See how the mainsail sails
Call for the captain ashore
Take the cup home
We'll take the cup home
We'll take the cup home
With Sinfield as captain
We'll take our cup home

Now Danny’s a caring guy
Helps kids in his spare time
But now he's gonna tear the Scousers apart
They can't stop his runs
And so Loiners have won
And with Sinfield as captain, he’ll take our cup home

So hoist up the Rhinos sail
See how the mainsail sails
Call for the captain ashore
Take the cup home
We'll take the cup home
We'll take the cup home
With Sinfield as captain
We'll take our cup home

So, since it's NOT the Scousers for a change, anyone suggest any alternatives ?
