Was it really THAT long ago that Bobby was banging in the goals for us? The era when Shearer and Andy (sorry, Andrew) Cole were up there among the nation's leading goal scorers. Time flies.

Wonder how Bobby will enjoy the Championship this season?

Did we ever sing that version? Can only ever remember "when the ball hits the net like a f***ing rocket, it's Zamora!" being chanted

When the ball hits the net like a f***ing rocket, it's Zamora.
When the ball hit the goal it's not Shearer or Cole, it's Zamora.

As I remember it, the whole verse went like this.

When the ball hits the net like a f***ing rocket, it's Zamora.
When the ball flashes in it's not Philips or Quinn, it's Zamora.
It's a goal, it's a goal. It's not Shearer or Cole, it's Zamora.
Only cost hundred grand for the best in the land, it's Zamora!

I have just had a panic attack about how long ago it was. Oldest Potting starts Senior School in September, she wasn't even born when Bobby Z was scoring for fun.
