    Cool. This song is new to me. Not even my mother is in touch with her roots but she is aware. Quite a difference lol. My other half, now that's different.

    Just write it out in Yiddish and find the rhymes........ if possible. Improvisation. One "stanza" at a time.

    Oh, boy... That's quite a rabbit hole to get lost in, my friend. Irish Rebel songs are gonna get your blood pumping. That part of me is undoubtedly why I love the Rebellion side of SW in particular Andor.

    Well I don't know how to translate "Black and Tans" and my orthography is probably awful.

    Waste my life with football (soccer) and sport. Feel I about to hate it.Football been frusrating and I'm getting fed-up. Feel lost love in football too many disappointment. And football/sport media been annoying me. It hard to avoid to football, feel wanted to leave this country. Wanted football to vanish specially team rivals and haters of my team they worse than losing a important matches/tournament. Try not to put something like this again, but feel I do ever I want but try not to put too much of this. Three loses and sport media and social media and rival fans making it worse.

    I do enjoy some music. Also there other things I like, like Star Wars, Anime and Video games, they don't hurt me more like football does.

    Yes, fans can be annoying, not only the ones from the other clubs. Better to just concentrate on the game itself, even if games are lost.
    And even if the game yesterday didn't end to your liking, I have at least no doubts that MU will end first or second in that group and make it to the next round.
    But for those of us who are not a manager or professional player, football should only be a game and entertainment. If it becomes a burden we should probably step back a bit and re-calibrate our view a bit.
    In another context some wise man once said: "Test all things; hold fast what is good."
    Now back on hoping Borussia Mönchengladbach will win the RB Leipzig thing tomorrow, I have my doubts though. This season didn't start that well.

    Manchester United was part of me, my Id, I do find it hard to let go., I love the team, history and some players, I even dislike some players, not a fan of Ronaldo and Beckham. There likes and interests there for me. Football is you never know what going to happen. And it's hard to avoid, only way is move to other countries where soccer not very popular. Never think when Sir Alex left United will be different team, sure if Real and Barcea or maybe even Cetilc new manager still top. Angry Glazer not selling and maybe one of the reason on United downfall, maybe not the case. Annoyed Man City stealing the glory and Liverpool catch up on glory.
    I also care for England in football, cricket, and both rugby union and league, cos I'm proud English and also support Yorkshire County Cricket Club. I wanted England (mens) team to win the World Cup, womens' team also nearly did but had no interest in womens' football I annoyed with how popluar it become and nearly over shadow mens. Nothing against womens' football just not into it and glow up and used to mens' football. I said when England knock out of the WOrld Cup I avoid football but later this year I catch up with Manchester united and they seem doing well and won a trophy but still struggling but end up 3rd but this season what happen? are these new players flop? they just arrived and quickly judged, cos United struggling. I can't stand my fellow United fans cos I disagree when bad days they attack one player then respect the same player on good day. Also had bad experince/memories playing football at schools, college and church acivitys, reason I hate football.
    I say I give up on football or sport but seem to return to it. It's a love and hate relationship.

    RIP to one of my favourite players and greatest players, Sir Bobby Charlton. I wasn't born when he was playing, but looking back at football of the past, sometime it good to look in the past as sometimes better than present. He's become chief executive at Manchester United. Heard he had dememtia in 2020 like my dad.

    Sorry for another negative and didn't check score already but did come out football on newspapers and it been upseting and anger me. How worse can it get, how Manchester United become like this and worse and how Manchester City and Liverpool come like that I hate them and fans specially, they may start winning many trophoes cos of billionares they got and they buy history and gloat at Manchester United and say they're the future. I wanted football to disappeared prefer that than rivall grab trophies, glories and history, ANd don't tell I have their feeling when Manchester United where top. What manager or players we need to back to glory cos it getting ridiculous and try get rid of Manchester United and football stuffs but might regret it but football even the word it angered me, History of the club and football made me think abit, history made me happy somethings cos sometime presents and future is horrible and people say need to stop looking at the past, but present are not great and make me miserable/depress. Not like Liverpool when they keep saying they're best and better than Manchester Unired when we on high and tehy struggle. Also hate Bayern, Celtic, Galasray and Real Madrid and Bareclona the most., also Totthenham cos I wanted Harry Kane at United. Football sucks, and rivals ruined it.

    Sir Bobby pass away and had dementia like my dad back in 2020 and what happen in football, doesn't help. How a great manager Sir Alex retired and still can find a good manager and some good players to fix things and stupid owners refuse to sell.

    Sorry for another negative and if someone ever read it and might be given negative/natural rating. maybe get deleted. But wanted to say something here, and maybe someone might took a little interest, I might had this in Tumblr, but this toplic is about football. Also feel like I'm spamming this pages sorry about it. Also my lost posts has spelling mistakes and error and wrong word I put in.

    Euro 2024 are coming but I'm not looking to it cos no longer football fan, why last year was bad football for me. Though season 2022/23 was a slow start Manchester United on top 3 and won a trophy (many seem to forget), then there transfer and season 2023/24, it went backward, and unable to get Harry Kane. Loss many matches to teams I hate and in Champions League, it getting frusrated and deprssing, I'm fed up and done. I now hate football, it suck. Try avoid anything football, now Euro 2024 come on you can't escape from football, England are in it and there be alot of England fans or football fans everywhere and most English will play other clubs aboard to make National Team improve which I feel pathetic, don't understand it, like a English player at Real Madrid and doing well, what if he end up at Man United or Liverpool or Arsenal? Might do well at Man City. We sign a English player from a German team (he from England but end up playing at Germany) but things went wrong, mean some English players better playing with other country clubs. When I see football on paper or on tv or on the internet, I get angry and depress. Also this South Korean Defender is best in the World, how hell is that? Don't know will he ever help if he join Manchester United, people sat we not in top 4 and in Champions League and unable to get top players, but we were in top 4 and back in Champions League last season, and sure players might join United and help improved the team. But it about money, yes United spend more money but more money than time, Manchester City are owned by dirty oil money, spend alot of time and money that why they did well and it took Sir Alex to reitre to change it.

    End up giving up football, done with it, fed up with it, as it's getting depressing and frusrating. I hate anything about football, teams I dislike, most football fans (specially two nemeies here), some/most players, sport medias, fan channels and government (FIFA)/corruption. Not sure what manager, players or owner or time will fix the club, we big club. People will start calling me glory supporter or fake fan or not true fan, as they know me or not fan/supporter they want me to be. As for bored to see a same club win all the time try say that if you live in/from Scotland, Spain, Germany or country where a football club never stop winning. Maybe I don't glory to end (miss it) and hate seeing other teams mainly ones I dislike to be on glory. Maybe I'm a different type of football fan, I'm on my own to myself, don't follow arogant ones or so called loyalty to the club. Feel meant to be about kick about and playing it not supporting it and gambling and wasting money on matches and football stuffs. Not going to support other team, feel not right/great. May return if teams I dislike wipe out the face of the Earth, I can handle without these teams they are worst about football.

    Manchester City think they new Manchester United and then try to be new Real Madrid/Barcelona.

    There many to write but that enough.
