Guest Ian Crabbe Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 I’m sure everyone would agree Bobby is on fire,had a thought for a song. One for the teenagers,check out “Viva Bobby Joe”,by the Equals,from way back in 1967,good catchy tune,sure some bright spark can make something out of it. From Crabbie33.
ollywhyte Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Would be the perfect song to be fair! something like: Bobby Reid, (or we've got) viva, Bobby Reid Bobby Reid, viva, Bobby ReidViva, vivaViva, Bobby Reid, vivaBobby Reid our goal scoring machine, yeah, yeahEverybody's gonna see a sensation, a sensationA sensation, hear what I say now *repeat*
Meh Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Any song has to be a tune people would know well or changing a current chant to fit his name in I would have thought. At least 80s onwards surely? Just pick a well know tune and add some words Example ;- Wham party :- Wham Bam - Bobby passed to Fam Job for our Cotts, I can tell you that it’s not! Le-ko control what you do, if not; just stop and Bobby will take the shot. Could go 70s at a push with a bit of ABBA :- Flowing pass, flowing move - ahaaaa there is nothing Reid can’t do - flowing pass, flowing move - ahaaaa he is going to beat you this time yes it’s true - losing bad is never easy I know but Bobby will beat you. Etc !!
Guest Ian Crabbe Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Well in reply,whoa Tammy,Tammy came from a 1972 song from Chicory Tip and that caught on.
Nogbad the Bad Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Thought it was already decided? All together now: The Young One Bobby Reid's the Young One. Young Bobbbbbbbby Never is afraid To SHOOT, SCORE, He gets goals galore And he'll always be Young Bobby Evermore.

Major Isewater Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=J1_JJiaAwqk Goal Bobby , goal Bobby , goal Bobby , goal Bobby , goal, goal , goal one more time . and repeat .
JoeAman08 Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Surely something much more modern for the young guys on the pitch. I'll post this but it isn't perfect as I'm just led in bed thinking about football songs now. How about to the tune of Ignition(Remix) by R. Kelly Bobby Reid's on the pitch and You'd better be listenin He twists and turns his body got defenders missin he does what he wants so what he's young its the freakin weekend he score goals for fun I'll leave now..
Hartcliffe red Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Also think nathan baker needs a song.... Whats that coming over youre head Its nathan baker its nathan baker
Robbored Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 He's here, he's there, he's every flipping where Bobby Reid, Bobby Reid........... I just made that up..........

Not true that it was first used for Gerry ( or God!!) - it was regularly sung about Gordon Parr second line - "he shoots he's missed, he must be *******. ******

Midlands Robin Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 If things are getting a bit overheated during the match, 18000 fans launching into a beautiful rendition of a song for Bobby to the tune of Edelweiss would no only sound gorgeous but also help to calm things down: Bobby Reid..... Bobby Reid...... Every matchday you greet me Red and white, Day and night You look happy at City Scoring a goal May you bloom and grow Bloom and grow forever... Imagine that eh? All those voices in perfect harmony.

Had this stuck in my head all day ! We need a few original songs, see some decent suggestions but we seem to play it safe with the generic chants which is a shame! Celtic are constantly trying new songs

I have checked thoroughly through the "Anthology of Forum Football Chants" and determined the deceit in your post as the word "flipping" has never been used in any football chant, ever. Charlatan.
Phileas Fogg Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 Celtic fans’ song for Stuart Armstrong. This sort of thing should be the benchmark.. Big clubs like United, Liverpool, Celtic, Rangers etc all have cracking individual songs for players and the best we generally seem to muster is singing a players name to the tune of ‘Seven Nation Army’ or in Bobby’s case ‘Daddy Cool’. I like the new Pisano one and the Paterson one is good, albeit nicked from Liverpool. We’ve gone viral for our gifs, would be great if we also got some attention for creating some really good songs for players.

stephenkibby. Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 Have to say Viva Bobby Reid wouldn't take much to get going. Maybe an old song but easy to pick up. The Pinball Wizard chant would be ****** brilliant if that took off!!
