You've been Devonshired - a tribute to Alan Devonshire - LIVE


Listen Later

In the summer of 2025, at Football in Berkshire's request, Chris Lambert of Burghfield Uncommon wrote and performed a song in tribute of the act of Devonshiring.

The term "You've been Devonshired" related to the Maidenhead United managers knack for his unfashionable part-time side to regularly surprise and disappoint famous old Football League sides who dropped into the National League.

The most famous being to spoil new Wrexham owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney first visit to watch the Dragons in the UK - Maidenhead winning 3-2. The absolute gall of the man.

With 'Dev' stepping down at the weekend, we thought it only right we should publish the song on our Spotify channel.

You've Been Devonshired was recorded live at the Berkshire Football Awards 2025 at Double-Barrelled Brewery in Reading.
