Not that I give a stuff about chants but... Of all teams, it's a Wigan fan who complains because some other fans just took something from another club and used it themselves.

Perhaps this irony needs a little seasoning...? Oh no, it's delicious as it stands. Mmmmm....

I remember something about it on Look North, wasn't it something to do with Oliver hardly missed a goal kick which is what prompted the lone bloke to sing it?

The story goes that it w as first sung at a Championship semi final game at the Boulevard on 2nd May 1936 against Wigan which we won 13-2. Cheered on by 26,000 odd fans Joe scored a try and kicked two goals in that performance and it is said as he walked back from scoring the try the song was struck up. He scored two tries and 5 goals in the final too when we beat Widnes. He was renowned as you say for being a real dead eye when converting tries and missed few conversions. He also scored tries from all over the pitch and had the nick name of 'Give it to' Joe for a long while.Oliver was a prolific points scorer for HUll Fc and his career spanned 1928-1945 although he missed a few years in the war and had a couple of seasons at Craven Park (but we'll gloss over that).. He scored 156 tries and 687 goals in an amazing 426 appearances for the Club in 12 seasons. He played an additional 100 games for Huddersfiled and 40 odd for Batley before we signed him too! Thats over 560 games!!! I'm a blo*dy anarach when I get going!

Its a song f.f.s.
As far as I know F.C. havn`t got copyright on the tune.
A bit like
"Who are ya?"
"What the ******* **** is that?"
and "We can see you sneaking out."

"We're Leeds Rhino's" (or "we hate Rhino's", as sang by most other clubs ), is a variation on "Liv-er-pool".

Not going to get upset by any Cas fans using our tune, it's not like you are dissing Hull with it.

As for Wigan, to my knowledge they only have one song and it has only one word in it, 'Wigan'. This is only sung when they are leading by 30+ points.

The Hull fans are looking forward to their trip to Cas on Sunday, it's their favourite away ground, good fans, good atmosphere and close to the pitch.

Must admit that I do like the one Saints sing.....the one about nights out in St Helens, got something about a fish/curry split in it lol

i prefer the one fc fans sing to saints fans when we beat them!

Since we 1st played you again in 2005 i have been in the bootroom every time with loads of Rovers, i would say that song is silly on all levels, but each to there own

I would say you're being a bit literal...I guess the intention is to emphasize the fact that we're in different leagues (for now). Anyway what do you expect from football/rugby songs....Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan?

Smoking is not good for Monkeys , watch the Hangover 2 to see .

That's a great song.

But again, stolen. Other clubs/sports use it such as Sheffield United FC

I do seem to remember us singing Hull's version of 'Old Faithful' at Huddersfield the year Hull nearly went down.

From memory we had to beat Huddersfield for Hull to stay up - then Hull had their merger and a new stadium and it seems to have been onwards and upwards for them, and I don't begrudge em one bit!

nah , cheeky girls - touch my bum , thats a great song
