Vicente, we know you'll all agree...........

[Chris001]

To the tune of “Lord of the dance”

Brighton, we know you’ll all agree
He is the lord, a football Deity
He leads us all, from Sussex by the Sea
Get on you feet for VI SEN TEA

Vicente, Vicente, Vicente (repeat to fade)

 

[smudge]

you sure?

 

[fly high]

sorry, you need a re-think there

 

[Everest]

Well I like it










Not really

 

[Tom Bombadil]

Could you not have come up with something even more camp?

 

[SeafordBHA]

Can't we stop with the song threads for Vicente now? He's got one, the whole stadium knows it, it may not fit the best but its catchy and easy to sing, i've had it in my head all day.

Ole, Ole Ole Ole
Vicente, Vicente!

 

[stss30]

Well I like it










Not really

 

[Rich Suvner]

VI SEN TEA? really? that's a new one....

How do you pronounce VICENTE?

 

[Titus]

Well I agree! (That it's rubbish)

 

[brightn'ove]

Ole ole ole ole vicente vicente

Will do for me

 

[BHAFC_Pandapops]

saying it like 'vicentea' is almost as bad as going 'hey guys I'm so cultivated, I call him Bicente because that's how I think it apparently sound'.

Like saying Bamos (Vamos)

Doesn't work. People say it is something to do with the Spanish and vocal cords but don't the lips and teeth produce V and B?

 

[Franks Wild Years]

Next !!

 

[Seagull Steve]

Not for me fella, I'll stick to the ole one I think.

I agree - attempting to speak Spanish like the Spanish do is just madness.

 

[Everest]

Let's get Vokes to ask Molly from the Saturdays next time they have crab if they can come up with a new song

 

[BHAFC_Pandapops]

I agree - attempting to speak Spanish like the Spanish do is just madness.

I've never heard any spanish person ever saying it like Bamos, in fact, our spanish teacher at school taught us that it was Vamos and not 'Bamos'

Trust me it is used - but like English depends on dialect/region.

Ultimately this is the problem for people in England attempting to get it right - but taking the effort to try and get it right shouldn't be ridiculed imho.

by contrast Te will always be pronounced Tay so Tea is clearly just wrong.

A friend of mine moved over here to learn English and told me in his first few weeks at Sussex Uni how he was trying to explain his progress with the language by announcing that he was "having problems with my bowels." Not quite what the tutor was expecting to hear no doubt!

if it's a dialectical issue, then, as I have been doing, I shall continue to say Vicente. I mean, the same logic couldn't be applied to say...Billareal or Balencia or...Andre Veeyash Boashh...or Bolibia, perhaps I could buy an old fashioned Bolbo to drive home.
