Gendarmes surely.Also, can we stop with the "let's nick X Club's chant" stuff? Be nice if we could be better than that and sing our own.

It's not the thinking of the songs that's the issue. It's the getting people joining in. We have trouble getting people to sing existing songs never mind anything new!
Yeah but surely it has to be to the tune of a local artist's song?Given that I'd rather pull my own vocal chords out and use them as a clothes line than sing owt by One Direction, that narrows it down to John Parr, Tony Christie (and he can f**k off as he's a Donny Owl) and Honky.Off you go. Best I can do to St Elmo's Fire is summat like "You beat Grims-by and Spurs, but you won't beat McCann."Edit, on second thoughts, let's just stick to Molly Malone.
