Keep trying. Will eventually be got going and become one of our best ever songs (doing with just all of the original "Ì'm A Believer" lyrics would be a bit different and good...).

Ba-la, Ba-la
Carlos Baleba
Ba-la, Ba-la
He's ours not yours
Ba-la, Ba-la
Carlos Baleba
Baleba, Baleba, Baleba
He'd have your Mrs on all fours.

(obv to the Mahna muppet song)

It's grim oop north
We now have a new MOR song plus a Champions League song taken off - plus im sure i heard a matt weiffer one at bournemouth

But still no "im a baleba" song has been started

Hopefully at one of the many away games in the concourse this can get going

Scores and we still can't sing a song for him. Absolutely useless. Instead at 1-1, yes that's 1-1, everyone sings a f***ing Champions League song. What happened next was the least surprising thing since Enciso took to social media to tell everyone he wasn't in the squad.

Fans were terrible again last night. Nothing for Fabian and can't even get Baleba shoo-in going. Only one Albion player had an audible song in his support...and he retired in about 2018..!!

Van Hecke's was very loud. But apart from that yes.

Give us a list on who we should sing about next time in advance.

As per my mates in the Fulham end, we sounded good for most of the game, really loud after the goal and then quiet when Fulham scored. Does tend to happen when you go behind late in a tetchy game.

Well not bloody Champions League when we aren't even winning and a song for our goalscorer (and one of our best players) and our manager for starters.

It is quite odd to start singing about the Champions League when equalising against a mid-table team. These Europe songs really need to be shelved for a bit.

For those struggling with this absolute tap in, listen to the Smash Mouth version which is a bit more gruff than The Monkeys, with lyrics.

All you have to do is change:
her face = his pace.
I’m a believer = it’s Carlos Baleba.
Simples.

Noted. Will relay what is and isn’t acceptable at the next away game.

Sing what you like (and actually i do admire and every club needs those fans who start chants so this is just an opinion) but if the aim is to boost the team and a player's confidence then it's all pretty obvious. Even Georginho shushed the Europe again chant at Bournemouth. You can see in all the behind the scenes stuff how much players enjoy their own chants and it would have to be a boost to FH as well so for them not to have songs - especially for Baleba when it would be so catchy, unique and is so obvious seems an odd choice.

Half the forum lamenting the fact the incredibly easy, incredibly obvious and incredibly unique song hasn’t caught on whilst the other half post much, much shitter songs is absolutely perfect
