    Not a chant as such, but years ago when we were in League 1, me and a couple of mates went to Tranmere away.

    Their keeper of the time was John Akterberg, who unlucky for him, had been featured the previous week on Soccer AM's 'Taxi'.

    Now I'm not sure why, whether we just fancied a change or pre planned it, but after two whole pints of lager we decided to sit two rows from front (something we never do) slightly to the right of the goal to which big John was defending. For the first 45 mins during every goal kick (for which there was many thanks to our wayward shooting) we would scream in unison, mimicking the annoying voice from the Soccer AM segment, "TAAAAAXI FOR AKTERBERG". This was also followed by other not so classics as "ARE YOU SURE AKTERBERG ARE YOU SURE" or "NEARLY AKTERBERG NEARLY"

    Tranmere led two zip at HT, as the whistle went, big John made the customary trudge to the back of his nets to collect his bag, looked at us, and shook his head.

    Now at this point I've gotta admit we felt pretty childish and to this day I still feel rather embarrassed by the whole episode.Add to that we were losing away, the joke was well and truly on us.

    However a spirited fight back from the reds culminating with Isaiah 'the ghost' Rankin going through one on one and literally walking the ball over the line sealed a very un Barnsley 2-3 victory!!!!!!

    Needless to say, we had the last laugh.Shame Tranmere got relegated, I have fond memories of my one and only visit to Prenton Park.
