He‘s the one,
who bought all our superstars,
the Amex Stadium
and the Lancing training ground

I tried to come up with something that rhymed - but couldn’t think of anything that would fit that didn’t sound a bit forced

I'm never a fan of ripping off other fans' songs but Leicester did something similar for Vichai, so if copied I'd go (to Sloop John B)

Tony had a dream
To take us from Withdean
And buy us a stadium so we could come home
With bicycle racks*
And Dunk at the back
Champions of Sussex, you'll never sing that

*I admit line four needs a teensy bit of work
Good call this, sure Leicester got it from Rangers ‘Four lads had a dream’

Four lads had a dream,
To start up a football team,
They had no money, no kits,
or even a ball,
They still carried on,
The rangers were born,
54 titles ,were still going strong,

The man is an absolute legend - surely we should make one for him
That's brilliant! To the tune of 'My old man's a dustman'?

"He paid for the Brighton and Hove Community Stadium, a plan, not whimsy nor whim"

I genrally go into W1G. You can only work out the words if they're simple. I've learnt more chants hearing it in the TV lately. Looking at Ronalds Vlog made me realise I have no clue what the North Stand songs are, the words definitely don't reach to the W1G

Surely this has potential. Got the whooooa to start it off with then finish it off with Here Comes the Bloom!

Surely some clever songsmith could made a chant out of that.

I was just about to post the same. I sit in the ESU and would love to join in with the NS but the as Cotton Socks says, you can only work out the words in the chants if they are simple. I think that's why Albion Albion/ Seagulls/ Solly, Solly March/Tony Blooms Blue and White Army (to name a few) which start in the North Stand (that's were they all start) gets the whole of the crowd singing/chanting along.
