There’s chants for DaSilva (Tequila) , Bobby Thomas ((La Bamba) BTA (Heartbeat) and Sakamoto (don’t know the source song) Lati (shamefully not Living on a prayer) Rudoni (a retread of do wah diddy instead of A Message to you)

None of these chants are original.

Jake Bidwell (his name to the tune of Tom Hark) and Miguel Angel Brau (the enemy) are the only ones with original chants I suspect.

Is Bobby Thomas La Bamba? Are talking about about the simple one that goes ‘Bobby Thomas!’?

Da Silva is Tequila! By the Champs

And if we are being generous to our rendition, Bidwell song is fairly close to Tom Hark (Pirahanas and many others)

Other than Brau we've pretty much copied songs that other clubs have used let's be honest

Chants for Lati (Livin on a Prayer), Rudoni (Message to you Rudi) and Sakamoto (Loco in Acapulco) have all been suggested on this forum as quality, unique chants and would be miles better than what we have

But no, our fans would much rather chant about Lati's cock size instead...

Yeah the Lati one is a no brainer. I don't understand why we don't sing something to 'Living on a prayer' - even something basic like:

we're gonna hold on to what we've got
you're gonna make the difference if you like it or not
We got your backs and that's a lot of love
So lets give it a shot

Oh, we're nearly there
Oh-oh, Latibeaudierre
Take my hand, we're going, I swear
Oh-oh, Latibeaudierre


We’re gonna hold on to what we’ve got
You’re gonna make the difference, ready or not
We’ve got your backs, and that’s more than enough
So give it a shot

Oh, we're nearly there
Oh-oh, Latibeaudierre
Take my hand, we're going, I swear
Oh-oh, Latibeaudierre

How many original ones have we currently got?

I miss the West Terrace songsmiths welding "Chippo Hadji Keano" to Bad Manners but that was probably lifted from another club

Simple is always better and more likely to catch on. The current Tats song for example never seems to get going properly.

Some new ideas and some re-working of classics below.

The Beatles - All You Need Is Love
All we need is Cov,
(Do, do do do do)
All we need is Cov,
(Do, do do do do)
All we need is Cov, Cov,
Cov is all we need...

Madness - It Must Be Love
As soon as I wake up,
Every night, every day,
I know that it's you I need, to take the blues away,
It must be Cov, Cov, Cov
(City)
It must be Cov, Cov, Cov
(City)
Nothing more, nothing less,
Cov are the best

The Killers - All These Things That I've Done
We've got Brandon Thomas-Asante,
We've got Brandon Thomas-Asante...

Earth, Wind and Fire - September
1, 2, 3, 4, woah-oh,
Frank The Tank Onyeka
Woah-oh,
Made us even better,
Woah-oh,
Gonna take us all the way...

Gypsy Kings - Volaro
Carl Rushworth, woah-oh
Carl Rushworth, woah-oh
He plays for Coventry,
Our modern day Oggy...

The Enemy - You're Not Alone
Jahnoah Markelo,
Jahnoah Markelo,
Jahnoah Markelooo...

Franz Ferdinand - Do You Wanna
Tatsu, Tatsu Sakamoto,
Tatsu, Tatsu Sakamoto...

The Smiths - Panic
Oh your dancing feet, are too quick now,
For all the teams you run rings round,
Jack Rudoni, Jack Rudoni, Jack Rudoni,
Jack Rudoni, Jack Rudoni, Jack Rudoni,
Jaaack Rudoni, Jaaack Rudoni,
Jaaack Rudoni, Jaaack Rudoni...

The Lightning Seeds - Pure
Just lying smiling in the dark,
Shooting stars around your heart,
Dreams come bouncing in our heads,
Pure and simple, Matty Grimes.

Now he's flying every week,
Another forward pass complete,
Swans sold a dream they should be keeping,
Pure and simple, Matty Grimes...


(That last one might be too wordy).

Sakamoto's song is shit and doesn't get sung nearly as much as it should. I've always said we should do rockin all over the world for Van Ewijk and Sakamoto

1 2 3 4
And I like it I like it I like it I like it
Ooooooohhh Ooooooooh
Here we goooooo
Van Ewijk and Sakamoto

Arsenal did it for Saka and Emile Smith Rowe and I thought it was class

All You Need is Love could work for Matty Grimes rather than the current effort.

Surely it should be to the tune of Loco in Acapulco

"Going loco Tatsu Sakamoto
Hope you stay so long"

Since someone posted it on here I’ve liked the idea of us singing in soprano, to the tune of ‘Walking in the Air’…

‘He’s Lati-beau-dierre’!
Etc etc etc.

I also think Haji Wrights current song is rubbish.
It should be (to the tune of ‘Oh What a Night’…

Oh Haji Wright
Greatest footballer in History
And he plays for Coventry City
What a Player
Haji Wright.

(Apologies if I’ve nicked this from someone…I probably have as it feels too good to have come from me).
