Nathan Tella baby song

Post by Quickenthetempo » Fri Feb 03, 2023 9:25 pm

Were we the first club to sing the song to a player?

It was the first time I heard it at Wigan away, but plenty of clubs are singing it about their players now.
Seeing as we're on Sky a lot, it would be heard a lot.

We often copy other clubs so was just wondering

You know that all football chants/songs are copied?

Yeah, but someone has to make them up.

I think Crystal Palace first sang this in the late 70's about Kenny Sansom

Well Man City stole the 'Always look on the bright side of life' off us after the FA cup match in 1990, and gave it to Man Utd.

Looks like we will just have to claim the credit for 'Who ate all the 🥧s' then.

Till we pen another....

It's unlikely to. have been on any terraces until after Nov 1981, I would have thought

Haha says a lot about how badly we sing it that I had absolutely no idea that it was meant to be that tune 😄 🤣

Nobody knows what it means but it's provocative. It gets the people going

Which football chant does make sense?

The new Jay Rod song refers to him running past the b******* scoring one or two.
He hasn't scored past them for us, might not even have played against them for us.
