FANCHANTS ALTERNATIVE PREMIERSHIP AWARDS
By Graham Wray
Forget the other tin pots. Here’s where Fanchants dishes out its prestigious alternative Premiership gongs:
The Phil Spector award for bad hair
Dimitar Berbatov. He might play like God on speed but that greasy bob makes him look more like Ann Widdecombe on HRT.
The Nobby Stiles award for man-marking
Chris Coleman’s missus. Still, at least she knows where he is now. Sat watching daytime telly eating his body weight in Cheesey Wotsits
The Vanessa Feltz award for best use of big pants
The huge banner in the Kop that read; ‘Jose Mourinho: Special One My Arse!’
Andriy Shevchenko award for Miss of the season
Miss Danielle Lloyd who scored in the presence of Premiership players more times than Watford.
The Trevor Sorbie award for blowdrying
Sky’s Geoff Shreeves for taking the full force of Fergie’s hairdryer on the chin. And then blasting it back in old sourpuss’s face.
Victor Meldrew moaner of the year
Neil Warnock for continually moaning about other managers fielding weak teams when the crafty sod did it every game.
The Audley Harrison award for girly fighting
Alan Pardew and Arsene Wenger for going at it like a pair of dads fighting over a parking space at Asda.
The Scooch award for laughable singing:
Wigan fans for their classic anthem:
We’ve won it two times,
We’ve won it two times,
AutoWindscreen,
We’ve won it two times.
The Alan Rough award for Scottish Goalkeeping
Everton’s Iain Turner who quite literally handed the title to United.
Maradona award for crafty cheating
Bolton’s David Thompson for popping a balloon as Reading’s Kevin Doyle took a penalty. Next year he plans to freak penalty-takers by making small animals out of stray balloons.
Gordon Brown award for most thankless task
The plastic surgeon who had to put Crouchie’s wonky face back together after his nose had been splattered.
Jurgen Klinsmann award for most likeable German
Fulham’s Moritz Volz: “Being from the Fatherland I am obviously very tight. So on the morning of a game I often get up early and bake a cake. I’m thinking of opening a cake stand outside Craven Cottage.”
The Alan Sugar award for misplaced misery
Steve Coppell. His side finished in the top half and were acclaimed for their attacking flair yet he still looks like the sort of bloke who’d be unhappy in a barrell of tits.
Martin O’Neill award for mad punditry
Sky’s Paul Merson for describing one striker as “about as useful as a fish up a tree.” Give The Merse his own show!
Barry Davies award for flowery commentary
“Oh there’s the backflip, the helicopter spin and the compulsory spiral” said Tony Gubba, not describing one of Robben’s dives on Match of the Day but slumming it on Dancing On Ice.
David Brent award for nuts manager-speak
Jose: “I cannot buy a bigger blanket because the supermarket is closed. But I am content because the blanket is cashmere.” And frayed at the edges with a few holes at the back by the look of it.
Liam Gallagher award for modesty
Joe Cole: “My body is now close to being absolutely perfect.” Yeah, but the munchkin face still needs a bit of work.
Darren Anderton award for most bizarre injury
Charlton’s Darren Bent sidelining himself after slicing his hand with a breadknife. “I’m not even sure what sandwich I was making. I didn’t get to try it.”
Otis Spunkmeyer award for silly names
Martin Jol’s sibling. Said Martin; “Yes my brother’s called Cock. What’s so funny about that?” Shall we tell him or will you lot?

A few coming in regarding Jose pet pooch, mostly from Man United fans funnily enough:

Why don't you get a cat instead. "
From Jeffrey:
"Mourinho are you listening,
We know your dog went missing,
We heard him bark & gave him to Park,
Eating in a stir fry wonderland "

Your biggest game will be Huddersfield"

A selection of anti McClaren songs
You couldn’t score with Ulrike,
Score with Ulrike,
You couldn’t score with Ulrike...
He had joy, He had fun,
He had Sven on the run,
Then the joy went away,
Cos his team couldn’t play.
McClaren are you listening,
To the song that we’re singing,
Your team cant play,
Home or away,
We’re going out of the Euro wonderland.
We’d rather have a Renault than McClaren
Get back to Formula 1, said get back to Formula 1
You were a better player than a manager
Better player than a manager
You were a better player than a manager
Steve, Steve whomever you may be,
You cant manage your own country,
Could be worse,
You could be Sven,
But at least we qualified for the Euro’s then...
Remember when we had Sven,
At least we had Beckham then,
Now even Wayne can't score
Please don't put us through any more...
You don’t know what yer doing.
Time to go, time to go
Time to leave after Tel Aviv.
He’s ginger,
He’s shit,
He’s such a useless tit
McClaren, McClaren...
He’s ginger,
He’s shite,
Wheres the fucking dynamite
McClaren, McClaren...
Score with Ulrike,
You couldn’t score with Ulrike...
He had joy, He had fun,
He had Sven on the run,
Then the joy went away,
Cos his team couldn’t play.
McClaren are you listening,
To the song that we’re singing,
Your team cant play,
Home or away,
We’re going out of the Euro wonderland.
We’d rather have a Renault than McClaren
Get back to Formula 1, said get back to Formula 1
You were a better player than a manager
Better player than a manager
You were a better player than a manager
Steve, Steve whomever you may be,
You cant manage your own country,
Could be worse,
You could be Sven,
But at least we qualified for the Euro’s then...
Remember when we had Sven,
At least we had Beckham then,
Now even Wayne can't score
Please don't put us through any more...
You don’t know what yer doing.
Time to go, time to go
Time to leave after Tel Aviv.
He’s ginger,
He’s shit,
He’s such a useless tit
McClaren, McClaren...
He’s ginger,
He’s shite,
Wheres the fucking dynamite
McClaren, McClaren...

Funny Spurs to doomed hammers
To the tune of the Hokey Cokey
You put your Argies in,
Took your Argies out.
The Iceman comes,
And your manager's out.
You're selling Reo-Coker and your're going down,
Thats why we like to shout...........
Oooooh Wanky Wanky West Ham,
Oooooh Wanky Wanky West Ham,
Oooooh Wanky Wanky West Ham,
Missfits, Has-beens HA HA HA!

Funny scousers
Liverpool fans salute their striker to tune of Lord of the Dance
"Dirk Kuyt, as good as he may be,
Hit every branch on the ugly tree,
Like Fowler, Crouch and Craig Bellamy,
Dirk Kuyt’s boss but he’s f***ing ugly.”
More Liverpool chants can be heard hear.

Sold to the USA (Spurs funny).
Don’t know much Scouse history,
Don’t know much about Stevie G,
Don’t know much about the Spion Kop,
I don’t know much except I own the lot...
Don’t know much about Anfield,
Don’t know much about Michael Shields,
Don’t know how to even rob a car,
I don’t know much about Grobelaar...
What I do know is Ice Hockey,
And that Parry is a knob-jockey,
What a lucrative world this can be...
Don’t know much about dippin’ bins,
Don’t know much about heroin,
Don’t know how to rock an ambulance,
I don’t know much about the robot dance...
Don’t know much about Kennedy,
Barnes or Beardsley or Bellamy,
Salif Diao or Patrick Berger, er,
I don’t know much about murderers...
What I do know is the bottom line,
And I know that now this club is mine,
What a lucrative world this can be...
Don't know much about the great Scouse wit,
Like chanting "Munich", or chucking shit,
Don't know many bad Croxteth slums,
Don't know many mad Toxteth mums...
Don't know much about our rival club,
But nor does Rafa, who eats too much grub,
Don't know much about the treble, y'all,
But nor does Gerrard, unlike Neville, lol...
What I do know is who gives a f**k?
This ain't Istanbul, you're out of luck,

Funny one from Man United
Hollow, hollow, hollow,
Chelsea's success is fucking hollow,
All the money it took, Off that big russian crook,
But they'll never win three in a row...
Thanks to Mark

Very funny Spurs songs
"Carefree wherever you may be,
We are the noveau Chelsea FC,
So please sit down, so my wife can see,
I've been coming here since 2003"
This one came in before we played Dinamo Buchurest in the Uefa Cup group stages. Spurs were already through to the next stage before this game, but still THFC decided to make it a category a match(highest rank) with ticket prices from £40 to £70. This is the song:
"My bank account is f****d up cause of the prices at The Lane,
Seventy quid you're having a laugh, they've mugged us off again,
I've taken up a mortgage just to cover for this game,
As the autopay goes charging on......
Daylight robbery Tottenham Hotspur, Daylight robbery Tottenham Hotspur
Daylight robbery Tottenham Hotspur, and the autopay goes charging on"
*Autopay is what it's called when the club charges your credit card for extra cup games.
Thanks to Petter for submitting.

The oldest football song
"The main Norwich City Song and the oldest song in the Football League"
Thanks to Gus for submission.
Kick off, throw it in, have a little scrimmage,
Keep it low, a splendid rush, bravo, win or die;
On the ball, City, never mind the danger,
Steady on, now’s your chance,
Hurrah! We’ve scored a goal.
