@deiseach - it has been so long since you last commented i thought you had given up on this blog !?!
I'd say you're right, that it must be great being married to a woman who loves liverpool too. I'll have to up the ante on my brainwashing attempts to convert her fully to lfc. Realistically the only footie song that will be played is YNWA, which will be very very late in the night (i'll probably miss it when it does come on).

Flippant answer - marry a Liverpool fan. Take it from one who did, it's ace.

Serious answer - leave the football at the church / registry office door. She wants to be able to show her wedding photos and videos in years to come to people and not be embarrassed, and stuff like football songs is going to bring a lot of smirks (at best) from other women.

A friend of mine had YNWA played at his wedding, the Vicor said something like "there is no way you are going to have a football song played, and I refuse to allow it" my mate then made out that he disliked football and that he loved the musical Carousel which is why he wanted it and suddenly he was more than happy to allow it!

But seriously dude, she may be a manc but don't do it educate her another way

@haytham - congradulations, and i couldn't agree more, we've decided to open with "truly, madly, deeply" but will play YNWA later on, am gonna have a word with the dj for the torres one on the sly later on (there'll be quite a few lfc fans there)

Woweee.

Shanks will be resting peacefully tonight thanks to that comment Haytham.

2008-06-13T09:49:00.000+01:00

I'm getting married in December to the most amazing lady in the world... And i'm walking to "You'll Never Walk Alone."

You'll Never Walk Alone, is not just a "football song" as a few of you have descirbed...It's so much more than that... it's an anthem that represents the very morals of Liverpool FC - walking on together through the wind and the rain for that golden sky. And that's what marriage is all about. Through good times and bad.

@mark - actually i'm irish and live in dublin, she's south african, such is the globalisation of football !!!

@topscouse - that'll never happen ;-) plus her first time at a football match will be at anfield this coming season, fair dues to her she at least 'supports' liverpool when we're not playing ManUre. Our kids will never walk alone.

@stretford ender - admittedly i chuckled a little reading that, more so cos i believe that won't be the case much longer ;-)

@topscouse - it's not a glitch, maybe they sense the title is coming our way again, and are preparing themselves accordingly ;-)

2008-06-11T16:50:00.000+01:00

Hi Paul,

Yep, your “Anti Bollocks” software isn’t working mate, defo.

Not satisfied with winning a fantastic ten premiership titles playing fantastic entertaining football, their fans have to sour blogs around the world with drivel that is incomplete. The fact remains that “The Premiership” is just a new competition created by the powers that be because Manure couldn’t win the last one!!

Anyway who’s Ronaldo gonna sign for today? Man City?. Another six easy points for them next year.

2008-06-11T16:18:00.000+01:00

Super intelligent answer there topscouse. If such a glitch was in effect, surely your comments are the epitome of bollocks. I'm so glad i stumbled on to this blog just to piss you off. Here's another 'bollocks' comment for you to ponder: 10 times mate, 10 times.

2008-06-11T13:32:00.000+01:00

“I reckon you should just………blah blah blah” ………………….Cobblers.

Who allowed Manure fans on this blog anyway?

Has there been some computer “glitch” which allows bollocks to be written?

How will your future wife love AND respect you in the future if you just discard something that you have been loyal to all your life? Oh yeah just forget about something that has been with you since birth?

Why the hell is she thinking asking you to go against everything you have lived and breathed for all of your life?

Yep, ok get married don’t bother about Liverpool, and hey, next time you want to breathe…………………ask for permission. And don’t even think about Liverpool ever again, after one year of marriage there will be a daily brain scan to test if you have deceived her by thinking about your beloved Liverpool, and if you get caught.......the mind boggles.

Think of the hurt and pain you will be feeling inside on matchday, does she really want you to feel this way ?

2008-06-10T16:23:00.000+01:00

Ok Paul,

I’m going to be a big help for you here, lets just say that I have a time machine that takes me to the future. MJ fox style.

I have just finished on a journey into the future and have been looking at your household……a very happy one at that as well, congratulations well done……………………or is it.

The time is 7.00am on 1st June 2014 and Manchester united have just finished their victory parade around Singapore after winning all three domestic trophies and the champions league, you have just re-mortgaged your house to afford the trip to Singapore so you can take you three boys to see the red devils with your beautiful wife, and of course you stay at the Hilton. What a long way you have come after seeing the team on an open top bus from John O’groats to lands end show their silverware to every major city in the UK and of course to make your beautiful, intelligent, funny, charismatic, exciting wife happy. Your life could not be complete. However you have to rush from Singapore to get back to work in your 22 hour per day job working in the Manchester united megastore. You are paid way below the minium wage for this because you think your wife considers that you are a kinda charity worker as you are doing it for her love of Manchester united. At weekends you are lucky enough to take your three boys to the “Cantona” school of excellence at the end of your road in Withenshawe……oh by the way you have moved house at the insistence ……no not insistence it was your decision all along wasn’t it to move to Manchester and totally cut your own family off from you and your lovely Manchester united supporting boys. When entering the school the reception desk asks for identification and you show them your 75% tattooed body covered with pictures of the manchester united greats like Massimo Taibi and the ever so successful Juan Sebastian Veron….to name but a few. You show the receptionist proudly and usher your boys to their changing rooms.

Once they have finished their training which consists of 2 hours of banging their heads against a brick wall whilst shouting “utd till we die, utd till we die” and 2 hours of brainwashing with educational video’s of years gone past and their Director Elite and new prime minister King Sir Alex Ferguson and finished off with a short ten minute wrist slashing ritual which is a reminder of days gone past when other teams were allowed to win the premiership and when players were shot dead if they refused to sign for manchester united.

You walk away from the training ground thinking how lucky you are and that your life is complete when you get home and your beautiful wife announces that she’s pregnant again…………………

Well that is where I left it………its your choice dude.

As Rafa said in the dressing room in Istanbul, you have the opportunity to change the lives of millions of people, go out and make yourself a hero mate, you have the opportunity to change the future……..

@topscouse
1) - Have any of them ???
2) - Yup, even expects me to be up for her side when not playing us (I don't f**king think so)
3) - As for #1)
4) - She's pretty smart and like many other ManUre fans out there figures that teams who play in the Premiership must be UK based.
5) - Ok, I'm not going to even entertain the thought :-(
6) - You think a prenup would be a good idea ?
7) - You know, I'm not even sure she knows the names !?!

October 25th, but we need to have the dance lessons and choose a song this week (very very long story)

2008-06-10T15:22:00.000+01:00

Holy smoke, you guys think i'm joking !!!!

To succeed on this issue you would have to consider the following:

1) Has she ever been to a match?

2) Has she seen them on TV?

3) Has she ever been to Manchester (not salford)

4) Does she know where manchester is?

5) Could you in throves of passion just before she reaches "inspiration point" point out that she's just been making love to "Stevie G" and see if she completes her journey of ecstasy

6) Would she go on complete her side of the deal?

7) Would she still like Man when it comes out that Ronaldo is not just leaving manure but he was really a "ladyboy"

At the end of the day it is just an issue of negotiation and one of the most important tricks in negotiation is to find out what motivates your opponent.

Fucks sake, you need more than just the song. Have a large screen TV showing his 33 goals. Don't forget to have the #9 and Torres name on the back of your shirt (I assume you'll be sporting the new jersey). Fuck a wedding like that would bring a tear to my eye.YNWA

2008-06-10T14:35:00.000+01:00

Hi dude,

I would certainly agree with most of these peoples comments about no football songs at a wedding..............but......She's a manure fan mate. You have to make a stand at day one.
Hey whats gonna happen when you son or daughter comes along? who will they support. hey save yourself the aggro later on and put her straight now matey. what gonna happen when the in laws come round and the might reds are on the box? you just goona turn it off and entertain them?
No.....you tell her its the fernando torres song or.....ask her would she prefer Trini Lopez's "If i had a hammer" and let her think about it. You may think i'm a bit hard but two or three years down the line you'll thank mer for it.

As much as I love, totally love Liverpool, there should NEVER be any football type songs for the opening song of anyones wedding day.
Of the several songs you have both been looking at, make your decision from those.

2008-06-10T14:06:00.000+01:00

The obvious song at your wedding which is so apt is "You'll Never Walk Alone". This indicates your commitment to your wife to be. Even a MU fan cannot deny that!!!
