An attempt to distract from the depressing week we have just had.
Whats your favourite song about a player/players
I liked the Sonko song or issiah rankins
I miss the days when almost all the players had their own song . 1992 team was the best
He's Batesy, Batesy, very very tasty. He's Jamie Batesy.
this!!!

That's the one.He's Batesy, Batesy, very very tasty. He's Jamie Batesy.
He's Bryan.I wanna be ion, like a lion.....
What about the best ever Manager chant... Its got to be : 'He's got white hair, he's a millionaire, Ronnie Ronnie Noades lol

On a slight tangent there was a good song about character fans to the Captain Sensible "tune" "I said captain"
I said captain, I said what
I said Spike, I said squat
I said Bill, I said hat
I'll leave the last line lol
My ex girlfriend used to love to wind me up by singing "He's Batesy, Batesy, very very Batesy, he's very Batesy"
She thought she was being absolutely hilarious!
Another keeper, Paddy Roche, had the very short "Roche Rumble" chant
and Alan Whitehead had the "He flies through the air with the greatest of ease" - I'm assuming this was sung with a large slice of irony.
Did it have a rhyme with 'fumble' in it? Actually, Paddy wasn't a bad keeper for us.
Anyway, mine has to be: 'Super, Super Mark. Super, Super Mark. Super, Super Mark. Supermarket Trolley.'
"A Roche aaah, a rumble!!!
A Roche aaaaah, a fumble!!!"
IIRC............
I cannot believe any Bees player had a song taken from The Fall.
I remember watching Paddy Roche as well as a nipper from the corner terrace between the Oak and New Road.
He’s here , He’s there , He’s every F****** where that’s Bobby Ross
Equally in that era was the Alan Mansley chant to the Hare Krishna song.I thought of this just before I started reading the thread. Quite poetic wasn’t it?
