River Plate fans singing Si Señor chant

[Valley Bluenose]

They are one of the Big 5 in Argentina.

That's quite a story in that second video. In English for those who might want to watch it. They even manage to squeeze Pope Francis in - but its an inspiring tale of what being a football fan is all about. Lost their stadium about 40 years ago and mounted a campaign to buy back the land and rebuild their stadium - which looks like it may be successful, in time.

Thank you.

There was a big thread on their celebrations as they recently got the land back (if only there was a search function). Now all they need to do is build the stadium - with the Argentine economy as it is this will be easier said than done.

The lack of a Search facility is a pain but with a bit of effort there's a way around it of sorts.

If you go to Google and type in the search term (in this case San Lorenzo) followed by site:www.followfollow.com it will give you only results from FollowFollow.

EG. in Google type:

Thanks. Never realised this so will help a lot.

Looking at the videos on here so far I'm impressed by the San Lorenzo fans. Not one of the usual 'big guns' you hear about like River Plate of Boca Juniors.

I know absolutely nothing about them though.

They are literally the Pope's 11 that's his team

Certainly the fans who impress me the most. Although the other Argies are brilliant too

That did put me off a wee bit. Got to admire their fans though. Spectacular passion and what a fight to get their stadium back. Hope it all finally comes off for them.

Tempted to ditch River Plate now ha ha. The Queens XI in the UK and The Pope's XI in South America.

would love a version from the ub

 

[Bluebrox]

Absolutely amazing, must be great to be a part of that regularly.

Jealous of this kind of stuff. They have more fun at one home game than we do for a whole season of home games.

 

[Azurian]

Ah, so that's where I've heard it.
Thanks

 

[DNA1872]

This gives me goose bumps every time I look at this video.... c’mon our UB get this song started at Ibrox and get the lyrics about our club and founding fathers in it ....

Is this what Liverpool were singing this evening? Sounded fantastic.

Yes it is. It actually sounded much better ‘live’ than it does in the video posted above which, as someone said, sounds like the words have been crammed in. Came over well from Turf Moor though.

Be nice if we could fit a Morelos song around it. Where’s @WBD when you need him LOL?

All I can offer is ‘Si Senor. Give the ball to Alfredo and he will score’.

EDIT: just seen some reasonable variations on that earlier in the thread. Needs to be simple and catchy. Liverpool one is a bit ‘contrived’ sounding.

 

[Teddy bear]

Health and safety Argie style

Absolutely

Would be unbelievable to see Ibrox rocking to these on a european night.
Get it sorted Union Bears.

 

[weebeara]

Replace 'our Columbian '…… with 'Buuuuufffaloooo'…… and it's a winner

Or
El Buffaloooooooo

Was it in Spanish to a Brazilian player.

The Si Senor bit was in Spanish!

 

[Radgey]

Liverpool one sounded good tonight but it's too quick imo. The South American ones are a lot slower and sound better for it.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

To Si Senor. Fits better than the Liverpool version I think.

There’s something that the Bears want you to know
About the player we call El Bufalo
He leads our line
Give him the ball and he’ll score every time
Si Senor, give Alfredo the ball and he will score
Si Senor, give Alfredo the ball and he will score
