We& #39;ll start, as we always did, with the classic 1-2-3 punch: Collins, Wham!, John. (*Not* the Dutch fella who used to play for Fulham.)

Audible groans that greeted the intro to Phil Collins were one thing, those heard when this song came on were quite another! Crystal clear that only @FreddieJizzard and I liked this one, which only made us more determined to keep putting it on!

Jermaine Hinds, a tall midfielder, was once sent off in successive games; such recklessness reflected by his FM ratings (supplied by me). Still, a cult figure thanks to the popularity of this song.

Kerthney Carty (KC) - top bloke - managed, at different times, our Youth, Reserve & Women& #39;s teams; plus the Anguilla NT. In Nov 2009 he chauffeured a minibus, from the Anchor, to Castle Vale vs Cadbury Ath. (5-1). And a chant was born:

Our 18/19 avg. attendance was a remarkable 1,353. As recently as 13/14 it was just 303. Back then Macleod (C) and I, plus others, would sing:

Valentine& #39;s Day 2004, FAT R5. John Dreyer& #39;s Maidenhead won at Chris Wilder& #39;s Halifax. Macleod (C) & I, after minibus ride back, went to Smokey& #39;s & heard a UK hit single ( #4) from Oct 1982:

We& #39;ve spent one season, since 73/74, in same division as Slough: they were relegated in 00/01 after our ILP debut. (Again in 06/07.) Recovered since, but & #39;staying down& #39; fits as nicely as & #39;going down& #39; and, bottom line, they& #39;ve been below us now for >10yrs. https://youtube.com/watch?v=15nMlfogITw">https://youtube.com/watch...

Since early 90s, when boss of W@nky Wanderers (apt), Martin O& #39;Neill has been taking intermittent potshots at Maidenhead United; perhaps most notably when he rejected Notts Forest. He finally took the Forest job in 2019 ... & was sacked after five months. https://youtube.com/watch?v=AKkE2TPdCt8">https://youtube.com/watch...

You& #39;ll likely hear Soggy Sombrero at least once during Maidenhead games. Chants of "the Thistle" at the end clue that it was brought to York Rd by exiled Partick fans.
