I wouldn't open with it

 

[Bad Boy]

The clayheads sing their version of it and then they applaud themselves.
Enough said.

 

[David O'Day]

It hasn't been banned though, it's just not on the official choirs song list. Fans can still sing it if they want

 

[MAFF]

What's white and slides down toilet walls?

 

[shmmeee]

Who has banned Delilah? And why is this on a football forum?

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

Let's ban everything because someone will get upset about it somewhere in the world AND will post their feelings because it's very important to tell everyone it's not fair on them.

Wokes want it banned, and it is also better known as a football song sung by Stoke fans.
Fucking world's gone mad.

Wasn’t it just removed from a stadiums playlist?

Mountain out of a mole hill stuff. The WRU have stopped choirs from performing it before international rugby matches due to the lyrics being about domestic abuse which they say might be upsetting to some people. Funnily enough it comes just after accusations of sexism and toxicity in the union itself...

Needless to say fans still sang it en masse before and during the game at the weekend like they've done for years because it's fun so not much has changed.

This thread is a salutory lesson in what happens when a poor joke is printed too small...

At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

Why would anyone want to sing a song at the football or rugby, or anywhere for that matter, which is about stabbing a woman who’s been unfaithful to you? What about anyone listening who may have lost someone to violence in exactly this way? It’s not woke - it’s compassion, it’s taking a symbolic stand against domestic violence.

 

[Tommo1993]

Probably not enough lyrics about drinking your team mates’ piss

 

[blunted]

The fact it was sung by Tom Jones means it should be banned.

Go for the SAHB version instead?

I can't believe it turned out like this... Yeah, I actually can.

Won the Ivor Novello award in 1969 for Britain's international song of the year - why, why, why Delilah ?

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

Did anyone actually read the OP to the end?

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

I thought it was funny.….

 

[SBT]

Always found Stoke fans changing the words so “knife” becomes “dick” to be quite weird.

yet ccfc fans thought it was acceptable to chant that the women who were victims of marlon king willingly consented

Heard the worst at Elland Rd. “Knock her out Marlon, knock her out” in the concourse from about 5 or 6 cunts. Fortunately it didn’t lift off. Grim.

No

“the” dick? Or “my” dick? Both weird but one raises a lot of questions. Maybe it’s a song about telling your unfaithful lover you were gay all along?

Oh wind your neck in - I’m sure people can differentiate between what’s a song & what’s real life
it‘s yet more virtue signalling if anything

Go and have a wank you silly c**t

 

[Sbarcher]

But Drill music celebrating violence is ok?

 

[NorthernWisdom]

So... everybody else is banging on about whether it's right to cancel it or not, and you choose to pick on the post that actually points out there is a joke there when no other bugger seems to have noticed?!?

And radio stations still play "Beat It" don't they and stuff by the Stranglers.
