    Well Foxes we have nearly a week to come up with a song for Our Jermaine.

    Needs to be something completely different to the normal tunes sung about players and certainly a song that has not been previously sung by the Whites or the Toffees if they had one.

    Any ideas?? I am working on one but need a bit of time to perfect it, then maybe later in the week can assess peoples answers and decide between us what to sing??

    Whats that one the England fans used to sing about German Bombers? I'm sure we could use that and substitute Jermain Beckfords. If only I could remember the damn song.

    Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Jermain Beckford song. Please feel free to tweek it until we get the desired result.

    There is one Jermain Beckford in our squad,
    There is one Jermain Beckford in our squad,
    There is one Jermain Beckford, one Jermain Beckford, one Jermain Beckford in our squad,
    And the big burly strikers scored a goal,
    And the big burly strikers scored a goal,
    And the big burly striker, big burly striker, big burly strikers scored a goal,

    There is one Jermain Beckford in our squad,
    There is one Jermain Beckford in our squad,
    There is one Jermain Beckford, one Jermain Beckford, one Jermain Beckford in our squad,
    And the big burly strikers scored two goals,
    And the big burly strikers scored two goals,
    And the big burly striker, big burly striker, big burly strikers scored two goals.

    And on we go, ad infinitum - or until we get bored! Ee lad, this takes me back 40 years when I used to pen the odd ditty for the Kop! I'm sure I'll be able to improve this as we go on,

    Not least because 'burly' is completely the wrong adjective to describe his stature. 'Wiry' would perhaps be more appropriate.

    Sure beats 'Marching on together, der di der di Leeds, derdiderdiderdi.......... ' and tails off to silence. Whoever penned that one for Weeds was a bloody genius!!

    I don't understand. It doesn't go anything like that and doesn't trail off until the end ('Leeds LEEDS LEEDS!') when it's meant to.

    Well if that's how it's meant to sound then you don't do it very well!


    All I ever hear is Marching On Together (Which sounds impressive) but it seems noone knows the words!

    It can appear that way because recently some fans have taken to clapping like seals in the second half of the chorus which makes the words seem less distinct.

    I have to say I agree, you can always hear the first 2 lines but then they trail off. A bit like When You're smiling.

    Found this

    He used to work for RAC
    Beckford, Beckford
    We hated him at Dirty Leeds
    Beckford, Beckford
    We bought the lad from Everton
    He gets the ball and scores again
    Jermaine Beckford, Leicester's <insert number>

    It only works if his number is one syllable though
