IrishCockney Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 On this subject, I used to be a season ticket holder in the 80's/90's, and gladly returned last year after Ellis went. But I can't help noticing how we don't sing a song for all of our players anymore, in fact I bet its not even half that have a chant. Think how you would feel if your mate gets a song, or two, and you don't even get a mention. Then think what you do if another club comes along, it really could make a difference. A few lads I really think we need to look after: Ashley Young - I see a few threads on it, but none make it out there. We used to sing about Andy Townsend, and it might have been used even earlier about Andy Gray, and can be changed to Ashley - Oh Andy, Oh Andy You're the Greatest The Holte End say Oh Andy, Oh Andy We'll be with you All the Way We have one for Martin Laursen, but we need to use it, and don't take the easy way out and change it for anyone else. D D D D Martin Laursen, D D D D Martin Laursen. For Bouma we give it the Freddie, Freddie occasionally, but I quite like: Boom Boom Boom Let me hear you say Freddie Freddie! Boom Boom Boom Let me hear you say Freddie Freddie! A few more signings would be nice, and we could keep this going... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hey! The Villa’s on their way. Here the Holte End loud and strong For where ever we go, You will always know That The Villa Goes Rolling Along.

shirley_villan Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Do they have anything to do with Villa? Or football? Or anything at all? It's called terrace culture, and irrelevant songs were sung as regular as clockwork at every ground in the country, before Sky invented 'footie'..and grounds were made all seater. Remember Football used to be about working class lads going down the match on a Saturday and enjoying themselves, hence some of the irrelevant songs. I'd rather sing irrelevant songs than some of the efforts posted on this thread. I wish people would get it in to their head that you can't re-create lyrics to a pop song and call it an anthem.
