[DIEHARD]

Charlton nil do it apparently, their icelandic player is treated like some kind of god....

Would be good if we could come up with an original song, not nicked off another set of fans, and one that didn't include the mention of Arsenal or an Arsenal player.

 

[Gassin's finest]

Apoel is from Cyprus

Yes I know, what with them being called Apoel Nicosia...

 

[DiscoD1882]

Change the grunt or whatever it is to "boo" and we'll be well at home

judging by the reaction most on here would agree.

I can't believe no one's backed me on my Beenie Man rendention of "Who am I" to Kevin Wimmer.

 

[Shadydan]

How about no

 

[riggi]

It's shit.

 

[SpunkyBackpack]

No

 

[spursram]

Prefer this meself!

 

[shelfmonkey]

seriously? There aren't many original chants out there and most teams steal other teams chants to suit their needs. We are massively guilty of it. why not use it. would create a great atmosphere. As I said Yids instead of HO!

Agree. I can't even think of an original Spurs song/chant.

Tell me more

Just stopping by to echo what others have said. It would be a Crystal Palace worthy level of muggyness if we started doing this.

No.

 

[Riandor]

If we still had Siggy with us and he started it, I would be ok with it, but we don't, so no thanks.

Glory glory Tottenham Hotspur (the one man Utd fans stole)?

 

[CrazyConrad]

Didn't Iceland steal it from a Scottish team?

The top Islandic club, Stjarnan, "stole" the chant from Motherwell after playing them in the UEFA few years back.

Originally we sang "Hallelujah".

I love it when we occasionally sing it correctly now, especially with just the one "on" rather than "on on on" at the end too.

That was written during the American Civil War and we started using it 100 years later in the early 60s (aptly enough, it was written in 1861) and we're still waiting for our next original chant apart from Chas and Dave's contributions, so we're not exactly prolific are we?

 

[Bobbins]

God please no.

Let Stoke or some other ****s stick to stealing other teams match rituals!

Palace...

I believe after about 61 or 62 the clergy got upset with us using a hymn so the fans changed the hallelujah to Tottenham hotspur
