Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Manny Adebayor! Adebayor!
He's scores for Tottenham again!
Manny Adebayor! Adebayor!
He's scores for Tottenham again

(repeat indefinitely!)

(to John Newman's "Will you love me again?")


and 1 for our new hero Eric Dier (which I know I already posted in his player thread, but never mind):

We all love Eric Dier!
He is always scoring & he's never boring!
We all love Eric Dier!
we love watching him play cos he plays the Spurs way!


(to Billy Joel's "We didn't start the fire")
 
1 more from me:

We're Tottenham, we're feeling glad
We got Lloris in the onion bag,
Fuk Arsnal, their keeper's shite
The future, is Lilywhite

It's Lilywhite! It's Lilywhite!
The future,
it's Lilywhite!

(to the Gorillaz "Clint Eastwood")
 
first time I've ever posted on any forum but I felt compelled as we have to get a proper song for Hugo. I reckon the only way forward is to sing a song in French. I know it's a ball ache to learn but if we want him to stay we have to pull at his heart strings. He's a bright bloke, he'll appreciate the effort. Please correct my GCSE french - (song - I love you baby)

"ohhh Hugo Lloris / captain Kaboul
tu es l'amour de ma vie
ohhh Hugo Lloris / captain Kaboul
même je dirais oui"
ohh hugo lloris
thats all the french I can sayyyy"

(roughly translated - "oh hugo lloris, you are the love of my life, oh hugo lloris, even I would say yes") plus with the effort may as well double up for Younis been a hero the past few weeks

also whilst I'm at it. I found out that eriksen was born in a place called Middlefart. Classic name, easy to remember and easy to make a chant. Plus again emotional blackmail for when the inevitable champions league vultures start circling.

for example - christian woo-ohh ohh
christian woo-ohh ohh
he comes from Middlefart
he'll tear you all apart

I'm done. I've had enough of this club.

Find me at the bar at AFC Sussex Wanderers - this is all too much.

Anyone want to buy flights to/from Istanbul flying 12/12, returning 14/12. £15.
 
ANDROS TOWNSENDS ONE OF US, ONE OF US, ONE OF US
ANDROS TOWNSENDS ONE OF US, SO IS HARRY.
HARRY KANE IS ONE OF US, ONE OF US, ONE OF US,
HARRY KANE IS ONE OF US, SO IS RYAN.
RYAN MASONS ONE OF US, ONE OF US, ONE OF US,
RYAN MASONS ONE OF US, SO IS ANDROS....

etc etc. repeat to fade.
 
This nice nonaggressive chant?...
He's only a poor little ....?
His face is all tattered and torn
He makes me feel sick
So I hit him with a brick
And now he don't sing anymore

I can remember a line of this festive xmas song - When the red , red robin goes bob bob bobbing along, shoot the bastard (repeat)? maybe some knows the whole song?
 
A few more player songs would be nice to sing from time to time like those South London inbreds on saturday. Only problem is we struggle to love our current mish-mash squad enough. Currently there's 2 for Kane, 1 for Soldado & 1 for Eriksen that actually get sung.

Dunno why, but there are quite a lot of Christmas-based football chants;
- Hark Now Hear the Tottenham Sing...
- Jingle Bells (for when we win away)
- Walking in a *whoever's name scans * Wonderland...
- Away in a Manger, no crib for a bed... the little Lord Jesus looked up and he said; "We hate Woolwich and we hate Woolwich...."

Maybe it's summit to do with everyone being that bit merrier on Boxing Day not to worry about singing silly songs, but there are loads when you think about it!

I was wondering-as an older Spurs supporter, we are because of what we remember?
 
Some of them probably wouldn't be possible today because of the sensitivity around the Y-word. I liked them at the time though, early 80s.

1. To the tune of Hersham Boys by Sham 69:
"Tottenham Boys, Tottenham Boys,
No pork chops or saveloys."

2.
"I'm only a poor little Yiddo,
I stand at the back of the Shelf.
I go to the bar, to buy a lager,
and only get one for myself."
 
Those last two are sung most weekends in the Bricklayers before a match. But, granted, not often in the stadium, even for a NLD.
This is one thing that does my head in. Time and again I've been in the Bricklayers and the atmosphere has been immense, great singing, the Glory Glory CD going full belt featuring all those Chas n Dave classics. Then between the pub and the ground the crowd loses its voice, and it's absolute dullsville in the stadium.

Of course there are many reasons for this, but how I wish people would save their singing for the match if they can't manage both venues. Naturally I realise many, including myself, can do both. Maybe it's that we get diluted by all the non-singers when we enter the ground.

In the 'good old days', if you were running late and getting to the ground say with half an hour to go, you could hear the crowd singing as you left the station and rushed up to the Lane, heart beating as you so wanted to be part of the choir, the spectacle, the experience that awaited inside.

Re the songs I miss.

'Ay yi yi yi, Jennings is better than Yashin, Greaves is better than Eusebio, and we'll give Chlesea a thrashing.'

Sung many a time, and particularly before the 67 Cup Final, where we, and l kid you not young 'uns, we were the favourites and we had more star names and more money than them, and yes we won. Happy Days indeed.

I guess we could now sing

'Ay yi yi yi, Lloris is better than Yashin, Kane is better than Eusebio etc,

but nah, it doesn't work does it, still I love Hugo and our boy Harry anyway.

Other fave old songs.

'We took the Shed, we took the Kop, we took the North Bank too, and when we take the Stretford End we'll sing this song to you (clap hands, often adorned with scarf on wrist) 'Tottenham (clap, stamp feet) Tottenham.

PS This song may involve some 'poetic licence', though we certainly took the North Bank Highbury on one occasion at least.

PPS I couldn't possibly condone violence and the subsequent trouble it brought to our dear game, and naturally as a sensibly citizen I never indulged in such tribal battles.but Yes I admit I watched from afar and at times did go along with the excitement of the battles, though keeping well out of them wherever possible.

Back to more traditional and older times still, how I wish we could hear 'Glory Glory Hallejuah' sung more often and louder and longer. Then there's ' Oh the whistle blows and the cockerel crows (to 'Manamara's Band' tune.)

And how I'd love it if just once, say against a famous old club like Toon in the Lge Cup, we could run out to 'Macnamara's Band again'. It'd bring a tear to an old man's eye, so it would as I saw Blanchflower, Mackay, Greaves, Jones, White and so many more trotting out into the 'arena of dreams'.
