If there isn't one already, can we have a thread for coming up with chants? I find 99% of them fucking cringe, so would be nice to have them contained in a thread I can choose to never visit. Thanks.

Some crazy suggestions for songs on here like. Probably just keep it simple, i.e. “Tonali, Tonali” to our Toon Army chant (anar boring but effective).

That's actually the worst option because no one, including Tonali will know for sure whether we are singing Ton-ali! or Toon army! Guaranteed half the crowd will end up singing the latter.

The "Toon Army" chant hasn't been sung in years. Tbf it's simple and effective, easy to sing at the same time, which is what geneates the noise, and something that everyone will join in with, instead of just the SE Corner. Sometimes less is more when it comes to football chants. People expecting all 4 sides of SJP to serenade him with a Whitney Houston song are living in Cloud cuckoo land!

Still doesn't solve the conflict though. Neither the crowd or the player would be 100% sure what's actually being sung so it would probably end up being a mish-mash of both. Even if it hasn't been sung in years, pretty sure most in the ground would recognise it.

Think it would though. If he goes in for a crunching tackle or scores a goal and the crowd are up shouting "Tonali, Tonali, Tonali!" he'll know it's for him. Like I say I can't remember the last time I heard our fans sing "Toon Army".

 

The Bruno and Joelinton songs, as good as they are, are just copied from other clubs. The Bruno one was being sung by Chelsea about Thomas Tuchel years ago and the Joelinton one was first crowned by Everton for Richarlison I believe.

 

We have lost our originality somewhat which is a shame.
