They stole our song!

[bhafc99]

Article on football chants in today's Metro lists as one of its favourites:

"West Ham United fans to Bobby Zmora, to the tune of 'Amore': "When the ball hits the net, and the club's out of debt, that's Zamora!""

I think our version was much better.

spammers. they're oh so witty

Erm, and Chelsea used the tune to sing about Vialli. So plagarism and adaptation is RIFE in football.

Nobody has nicked Sussex By The Sea though!!

 

[Scarface]

Couldnt really print our version though!

That's a pretty deradful list credited to us, some of which I have never heard anyone sing.

The Hammers had some bloke from the "Rat Pack" show re-record it, with the new words. Sounded a lot better than our "Seagulls Singers" version.

We started that song for Lorenzo Pinamonte - not BZ.

Follow-up letter in today's Metro:

I have just read your article on football chants which included one about the West Ham United striker Bobby Zamora, which goes: "When the ball hits the net, and the club's out of debt, that's Zamora." I'd just like to point out that an alternative is: "When the ball hits your head, and you're sat in row Z, that's Zamora.' Either one is fine.

Didn't Tottenham steal it as well.

"When the ball hits the net, its a sure fire bet, thats Zamora"

not that they had to sing it that often....
