Irish folk group stand up for Watford mascot Harry the Hornet against Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce with new song

A well-known Irish folk group have written a song in support of Watford Football Club’s colourful mascot after his diving antics landed him in trouble with Crystal Palace’s new manager.

Harry the Hornet managed to avoid the wrath of the FA after he threw himself to the floor in front of Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, who controversially went down in the box late on in their match on Boxing Day.

Zaha was booked for diving and Harry responded by mocking him with a dive of his own after the final whistle.
Harry even drew the ire of former England manager Sam Allardyce, who said: “That’s up to Watford to sort that out, really. The Premier League and FA can look at that and do what they want to do.

“The mascot is out of order, isn’t he?”

But The Corrigan Brothers, who rose to fame with their 2008 hit There’s no-one as Irish as Barack Obama, have re-written their most successful song, naming it We’re right behind you Harry the Hornet.

“We were very moved by (Crystal Palace manager) Sam’s reaction to Harry and we felt we had to stand up for him in song,” said lead singer Ger Corrigan.

“We have a soft spot for Watford and we love the spirit of the club. We want to send a message out to all former England managers with 100 per cent records that they shouldn’t pick on mascots.”

The group are currently recording the track and will release it on January 3.

Just to piss fat Sam off even more :D
