Chantation Roundup

Chantation Roundup

One thing that struck me at the Leeds game was the terrible "Hugill Hugill Hugill" chant that is basically us just shouting his name. So it got me thinking why don't we have a song chorus going before this to be a bit more imaginative.

A song I've never heard as a chant at a football match is Laid by James, which is surprising considering the pace of song and catchy chords. Maybe we could be original and bring it into the game.

How about...

He's a Boro lad he scores goals for fun
We signed him from Vale for next to fuck all
He's our star striker and we're not letting him go
He's driving us crazy

Jordan Hugill, Jordan Hugill

Then the Hugill Hugill Hugillllllll as part of the the "come home" and eeeeeeh bit Tim Booth does at the end.

I actually like that.

Unfortunately however, I don't think we have the creativity/imagination within our ranks to be able to get originality off the ground and make it popular.

We're still singing "you're fucking shit, you're fucking shit, you're fuuuuuckiiiinnngggg shiiiiiiiiit" ffs.
 
Scrap the 'PNE PNE PNE' and 'we're the one and only north end' chants or at least sing them once a game rather than the only two sings we sings. Also need to replace the 'Oh seani maguire' which is just the same as Aiden mcgeady one, hardly imaginative and creative. A possible one for Ben Pearson could be...

Oh Super Ben Pearson
He is the f***ing man
He's our midfield maestro
He'll snap you if he can
He plays in blue and white
For Alex Neil's men
And when he gets a yellow card we'll sing this again

The tune is widely used but one example is from leeds https://youtu.be/9qswkHp38v0
 
Another Tom Clarke chant could be the theme from Top Cat, because it's all about The leader of the gang who's close friends get to call him TC. Just a thought.

Here's one that could be turned to either Preston or Pearson. Reworked from A.R. & Machines-come on people and sung with a swagger.

Come on, preston, preston come on
Come on, preston, preston, come on
Come on, preston, preston come on
Come on, preston, preston, come on
Come on, preston, preston, hey preston preston now
Come on, preston, preston come on
Come on, preston, preston, come on
Come on, preston, preston, come on
Come on, preston, preston, hey preston preston come on
 
come on people

come on people

For Tom barkhuizen,
We could sing the scotty Sinclair song that Celtic use but of course swap the names. It works. And would make a bit of noise.

Pretty good although you might be better replacing f**king with fighting.
 
So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my saviour would come
I think it's Barkhuizen
I think it's Barkhuizen
Na Na Na Na Na......

George Michael, Amazing.....only thing that rhymes with new pronunciation of Barkhuizen!
 
I'm still liking this to the tube of Dizzy by Vic Reeves and the Wonderstuff:

You're so dizzy your head is spinning
Like a whirlpool it never ends
And it's Hugill making it spin
He's making you dizzy..

Out to Get You sounds like it could work for a Ben Pearson number.
 
To the tune of Fine young cannibals 'Good Thing'

Clap clap, clap clap clap clap, clap clap
Tom Clarke where have you gone
Do do do do der do
Clap clap
Tom Clarke you've been gone too long
