The man who spawned Super Caley Go Ballistic

[Dargo20]

Robert B Sherman, half of the famous songwriting duo behind a string of Disney musical hits, has died. One of his most famous co-creations was the word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. His song spawned the famous Sun headline after Inverness Caley's victory over Celtic SUPER CALEY GO BALISTIC CELTIC ARE ATTROCIOUS

Well spotted. I enjoy any sort of reminder of that victory, no matter how tenuous the link.

In recognition of his contribution to ICT folklore, perhaps we should play the song over the tannoy on Saturday.

A Terry and Mo duet at half time?

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

I would have thought that a more apt Sherman composition for Terry would have been "Trust In Me" from the Jungle Book !!!

Reading an article about how Sherman supposedly came up with the word, I note that more than 10 years prior to his song an American music hall singer called Gloria Parker wrote and recorded "Supercalafajalistickespeealadojus". There was a court case but she was unsuccessful in claiming breach of copyright because similar nonsense words had apparently been around for a long time previously.

I would hazard a guess that Terry n Mo will be having a rant at half-time!!
