He will be a marked man come the end of this season I reckon. Defenders will not like being made monkeys out of!

We need a player to make it fit, but was a classic, especially over the Christmas period. You better watch out, you better beware He's good on the ground he's good in the air Jordan Rhodes is coming to town! Replace JR with 'Saaam-uel' and hey presto you have it methinks?

It all came over loud and clear on the ifollow stream. Did the heart good. The Richie Smallwood tune is a cracker, I was humming it all day on Sunday. Nice simple, supportive chants also trotted out for Dack, Conway, Graham, and Caddis too. My absolute favorite was for Harry Chapman. To the tune of David Bowie's 'Starman': "There's a Star man playing on the right, his name is Harry Chapman and he's f***ing dynamite..." It only got one airing. I was really hoping for a reprise following his bit of magic to leave their left back in the dust, but no luck. Great effort from all involved! http://www.nme.com/news/welsh-football-fans-singing-new-starman-inspired-chant-honour-new-star-ben-woodburn-2134942 There's a video of Wales fans singing Starman about Ben Woodburn in the link^. Feeney got the assist for Cardiff's goal and the weekend so they're probably singing it about him too
Leyland-Rover Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 I never know what any of the words are, so I like the simple ones: Get into 'um! Get into 'um! Get into 'um!
Backroom Mike E Posted September 12, 2017 Backroom Posted September 12, 2017 My missus thought of a decent one for Smallwood, though I'm not sure 'Jolene' would catch on at Ewood: Richie, Rich-ie! Richie, Richie-ee! He gets the ball and goes through the man! Richie, Rich-ie! Richie, Richie-ee! He takes them all out just because he can!
Sparks Rover Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 What's wrong with Wings of an eagle? Who took my post off..? Or did I dream I posted it..?

Eagle? Funny, I may be wrong but I always credited Rovers fans with a kind of poetic contrast/juxtaposition i.e. "...wings of an angel ....dirty black a*** of a crow" Maybe, I was singing the wrong words for years. One my kids used to chant "We'll soon set sail for the east" instead of "Souness' Blue and White Army!"

It seemed to me like the request for a video of the poster singing the song was an in joke, indicated by the winking smiley face!

My response was kind of tongue in cheek but I failed to emotify it....

Hello, hello, we're making all the noise..." It's actually 'Follow, Follow, we are the Blackburn boys' as Rangers and Man U fans sing it anyway.

Leonard Venkhater Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 For me.. You are my sunshine Molly Malone.. I will never forget my first away match at Blackpool, looking up to the back, as thousands of bare arms went up together at the line. " through streets broad and narrow". The new Ritchie Smallwood song sounds great. Very distinctive on the radio etc.

It's actually "hello, hello" as sung by Rangers fans. "Follow, follow" is also sung by Rangers fans but it's a completely different song.
Speedie's Gonna Get Ya Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Great to hear some fresh originality coming back AND more importantly songs about individual players too. Sweetest sound to own ears, is sound of your own name. Not only a personal boost; a way to build the bond between players & team. Just hope it spreads to the home games!
Backroom Mike E Posted September 13, 2017 Backroom Posted September 13, 2017 People keep saying 'the new Richie Smallwood song', could someone actually type what it is? I try to follow but it's awkward picking it up as I wear hearing aids.

Preben Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 The singing, especially away, reminds me of the good old third division days but ...... so many more would join in if the songs weren't sung so fast!

windymiller7 Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 As a kid, I used to think people went down the Bolton Road to see the Blackburn End stinks! (Which it very often did!)

I've organised a lobotomy for my gf.
