Not a chance mate, they never wrote it, and I think the original was by Elias and the Zig-Zag Flutes. The Mickey Finn did it again around 1965, and the Pirhanas realised it was time for a quick revival. The writers and publishers make more from a cover version than the musicians covering it .
With that in mind, it would be just as simple to do an original tune - and if it goes platinum the proceeds could go into the club .....to buy back Gareth Barry or summat .

Got this from Dotmusic.com:
Also raising eyebrows at Number 36 is the heartwarming offering 'Yeovil True'. Yeovil Town FC are riding high at the moment having last season won the FA Trophy and gained promotion to Division Three of the football league. Someone within the club had the bright idea of seeing if they could become the first ever Third Division side to have a chart record - such an honour of course normally confined to FA Cup Finalists. Thus the single was recorded and made available solely at WH Smiths in Yeovil itself. As a result of fans queuing around the block to buy the single chart history has indeed been made as with what must be one of the most concentrated local sales ever, the single has become the 36th biggest selling in the country.
If Yeovil could do it, with it just being sold at WH Smiths in the town, then I am sure that Brighton could do it! Remember Littlehampton Rockers "Delirious?" who kept getting into the singles chart a few years ago on the strength of their very loyal fan base and co-ordinated first week purchase strategy?
"Tom Hark" single sounds a fun idea!
