Sing Us Another One Just Like The Other One


You know me.

I do sensible football pundit for a bit then I'm inevitably drawn back to the quirky and the bizarre in football.

What a delight then to find a whole list of the best football chants of the season.

If you can't be bothered to read through them all let me share some of my favourites with you.

"Whoh-oh Theo Walcott, Theo, Theo Walcott. He's an Englishman at Arsenal."
Arsenal fans to the tune of Sting's Englishman In New York.

"You're not special anymore!"
Manchester United fans to Jose Mourinho after knocking Inter Milan out of the Champions League.

"He's fat, he's round, he swears like Chubby Brown, Joe Kinnear, Joe Kinnear!"
Newcastle fans laud their portly boss.

"Your mum does your laundry!"
AFC Wimbledon supporters to university side Team Bath.

"If you love Golden Wonder, clap your hands."
Sung by Peterborough fans at Leicester's Walkers' Stadium.

"You're going down with the Woolworths!"
Ebbsfleet fans to Weymouth during their 1-0 win.

"It finishes Crawley Town 2, Woking 2. Be sure to tune in to the Blue Square Premier Review on Setanta next week to see how far offside Woking's first goal was!"
Crawley stadium announcer.

"Who's the next messiah, Ant or Dec?"
Aston Villa banner aimed at Newcastle fans.

And my absolute favourite;

"Superman wears Tim Cahill pyjamas."
Seen on a banner at the Everton end of Wembley during the FA Cup semi-final with Man Utd.

Two successive Reading home matches when they were in the premier league. In the first match the fans got fed up with the referee and started chanting "You're worse than Graham Poll". The next week Graham Poll was refereeing the match. Again the fans were getting fed up with all the decisions apparently going against them and, inevitably, they started chanting "You're worse than Graham Poll". Possibly the most surreal moment I have witnessed at a football match.
