Go on then Mozart, compose some lyrics for us to sing. Preferably written on scrolls handed out to everyone or get in touch with the club to have words put on the screens. How many of the suggested songs on here actually end up happening? A very small fraction. So does it really matter? No. Bye.

Might not be an original tune, but I can't think of anybody singing "We're f*cking brilliant" before we did. Not 100% sure though.
Posh spice is a slapper,
She likes them big and hard,
And when she's shagging Beckham,
She thinks of Jess Lingard
Standard.

You're missing the point. There are new songs suggested to new tunes virtually every week on NSC, and how many of them have ever got going? None, I think. Creating a new chant is easy, getting people to sing it is nigh on impossible because of the song Nazis. Which is a shame. We have to wait for another club to come up with one and then adapt it, or sing one of 147 variations of 'Sloop John B' instead.
Yep, I think you've got one. Or half a one anyway, as the tune is used by every club in the country.

I think that , that is the one for jesse lingard as it makes more sense than the Upson on did yesterday. Let's scrap the Upson one and use this, it's brilliant!
You're contradicting yourself a bit there. Songs are being suggested and you're slagging them off yet you slag off the people that slag suggested songs off. Who cares if it's to a tune already in use by one of the hundreds of football clubs in the world....as long as it gets an atmosphere going it really shouldn't matter!

Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have Fun
Our Dave takes a wonderful kick,
and fires it to Kaz,
with a delicate flick
He want's to be the one, to make it 2-1
Our girls, they wanna have fun,
Oh our girls just wanna have...
That's all we want,
Some fun!
When the working day is done,
Us girls just wanna have fun!

Are you on a wind-up?
There are a number of issues as I see it, and Commander is almost there.
1) Lots of people are prepared to suggest new tunes, but struggle to come up with lyrics.
2) On the whole, our fanbase is reasonably intelligent - I wouldn't go as far as saying Middle Class, but it's heading that way.
3) In the main, the people coming up with lyrics are, let's face it, a little bit dim, or very young, or both.
4) As a result, the 'dim' people suggest lyrics that are generally deemed 'shit' or 'cringey' by the masses.
5) The 'ultras' under the police box and at away games will ignore all of this and persist with their foreign stuff or their songs that don't catch on no matter what they are told (see the ditty about Kazenga being faster than a fighter jet, or their latest rehash of Sussex by the Sea)
6) The only 'new' songs started are 'safe' ones that get the nod of approval on no basis other than the fact that they are written/sung by other clubs and it's not difficult to shoe-horn the name of a player in. See Oscar Garcia/Luis Garcia, Will Buckley/Maxi Rodriguez, Leonardo/Carlos Tevez.
7) It's currently very easy to access other clubs chants via youtube. Hence this latest suggestions, which was being sung VERY loudly by FC United fans at Withdean a few years back and didn't reference Matthew bloody Upson.
The result of all of the above is that we have bugger all songs to choose from.
The solution would be for those people mentioned in group 2 to come up with something reasonably humerous/catchy which group 3 can join in with and post on youtube to all their mates for other clubs to copy, but it's easier said than done.
Apologies for any offence caused by this slightly blunt take on things, but I DO genuinely believe it to be where the problem lies.
Yes I probably am a bit, but I have been on the wine since 2pm so you'll have to excuse me, and take the somewhat skewed point I'm trying to make.

Almost. Although personally, I don't see what is wrong with the Kazenga one, other than it being another bog standard rehashed Liverpool chant (Fernando Torres), and I don't really get why it's never caught on. It's no better or worse than the Leo Ulloa one. I did read on here once that is was far too complicated and there was no way anyone would ever be able to learn all the words (of the five line song, sung by virtually ever other club in the league). I think that is probably closer to the root of the problem than anything else.
I'm also not sure our fan base is reasonably intelligent. If NSC is anything to go by, or the North Stand at the Amex, they aren't.
And yes I realise I sound like an utter prick. But hey ho.
