^^^^ incorrect; it was Eric Morecambe and his gag/tongue-twister is East Fife 4, Forfar 5 - the play being on Fife - four - For - five.
It's in the BBC link Sea Raider posted too

No - Eric was wrong - classically it is East Fife Four, Forfar Five. I've been in that area for a long time.....

How can Eric be 'wrong' on a gag/joke he has with Alexander Gordon?
As you say, whichever way round its still good

Locally the joke predated Eric Morecambe and was always ‘Forfar 4, East Fife 5’
Guess EM thought his version was funnier, or he got it wrong

He is saying all the right words, just not necessarily in the right order! Uncle Ray's spare wheel protector

I prefer Eric's version as more a play of the words five, four, four, five
Proving again all 'jokes' are plagiarised......

Good old East Fife, their ground is just along the road from me.
You can just make it out here, always a good spot to watch the match.
