Popov the Albion man. A song we must steal!

[Wilka]

"Popov the Albion man,
he lives in a caravan,

he looks like a killer and he hates the villa,

he's Popov the Albion man

poop poop."

Ended up watching West Brom v Norwich yesterday thanks to the postponement. Now this is a chant we must steal. Any ideas?

 

[seagullondon]

I heard this before and it is a really catchy tune would be good to hear it at the Amex

 

[T soprano]

It works because Popov is similar to Popeye
Don't think it would work using names such as Bridge or Bruno

 

[Lord Bracknell]

REALLY good football chants are unique to one club (or player) and can't be transferred elsewhere. This is one such.

"When the ball hits the net ... " is another one.

 

[Wilka]

Hardly any chants are unique these days. At least this isn't to the tune of sloop John b like 90% of chants now

Come On then you put an Albion Player to the Popeye tune and we can all tell you if it's any good

Mere details Lord B...

Bruno the Albion man
He comes from the Catalan
He plays for Seagulls and shits on the Eagles
Bruno the Albion man.

That, or we should sign Popov.

I keep singing this to the tune of ' union man' by the strawbs.

Now that would sound good, change it to Albion man with infinite versus and slow rhythmic clapping and long jazz hands on the oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm an Albion man

So can we expect to hear this ringing out at the Amex this Saturday!

You start it, I'll join in.

 

[edna krabappel]

Can somebody please explain to me what "the Catalan" is? That would be like saying Gordon Greer comes from the Scot.

From Wiki:

The Catalans are an ethnic group; the people from, or with origins in, Catalonia who form a historical nationality chiefly located in the northern Spanish state. The inhabitants of the adjacent portion of southern France (known in Catalonia proper as Catalunya Nord, and in France as the Pays Catalan) are included in this definition.[6][7] Also, Catalan is sometimes used to define people from Catalan Countries, which include other areas where the Catalan language is spoken

Isn't the whole point of the chant to do with his name popov being vaguely similar to Popeye ? I guess we would need a player whose name sounds like Popeye for it to work for us
