Yes, Shoreham, the only song I remember in the late 40's was very corny by to-day's standards (or lack of).It went something like- Roll along Sheffield United ,Roll along- to the top of the league where you belong-------------(forgot that line)- For when Hagan's got the ball-it's sure to be a goal- Rollalong Etc.

United tried to get a song going in the early 70s by printing it in the match day programme. It was to the tune of Land of hope and glory. We’ve got Hope and Currie, Woodward on the wing, Dearden down the centre and Hockey is the King
