    Inspired by the Ismael’s Army attempt, let’s get some new chants ready for when we’re back in the crowd

    Here’s mine to start, celebrating our high pressing style:

    (To the tune of Gina G’s Just A Little Bit)

    Barns-ley
    Run about a bit
    Barns-ley
    A little bit more
    Barns-ley
    Are gonna catch ya
    Get the ball and then we’ll score

    (To the tune of Blondie’s One Way Or Another)

    One way, or another, we’re gonna find ya
    We’re gonna get ya get ya get ya get ya
    One way, or another, we’re gonna catch ya
    We’re gonna catch ya, yeah catch ya
    One way, or another, we’re gonna win here
    We’re gonna beat ya, beat ya, beat ya, beat ya
    One day, maybe this year, we’re gonna go up
    We’ll beat all of ya

    Our team bus, will drive past your house
    You might draw us in the cup
    We’ll see you around

    Please critique or add your own. Let’s get em sung!

    Don't think I'll.be posting much on the matchday thread, I'm going to be singing and chanting all the time and pretending I'm at Oakwell. Just imagining the blue crowd opposite and singing "we can see you sneaking out" 5 mins after the whistle blows to start the game!

    A few more that could be fun

    (To the tune of the Jaws’ theme)

    Either simple Dur-durs, or Barns-ley

    (To the tune of The Who’s Boris The Spider)

    Barnsley will find ya do-do-do-do do-do-do-do
    Barnsley will find ya do-do-do-do do-do-do-do
    Wood-row
    Di-ke
    Frie-ser
    Mor-ris
    Chap-lin
    Ade-boy-e-jo
    Get the ball and score a goal

    The best chants are the ones that happen organically, usually by a pissed-up and coked-up bloke in the Ponty End who does it to make their mates laugh, but it sticks.

    I've lost track of how many times a new chant has been suggested on here, but I don't think a single one has ever caught on, has it? CLosest I can think is when someone posted a video of someone(I want to say the Ajax fans) singing "Three Little Birds", and it became the anthem for our season(and great escape!).

    I didn't realise our fans are so camp. Have we got anything to a tune by the village people?

    You can change lyrics to most songs to make a good chant. How about Do You Want To by Franz Ferdinand? In time for our second season in the top flight......

    Well do ya? do ya do ya want to?
    Well do ya? do ya do ya want to?
    Want to go where we've only been once before?

    Well Val's a friend and we're so proud of him
    He's our gaffer and I knew he'd promote us, oh yeah

    Rubbish! Just admit it, you will be singing Gina G chants all game....

    And as for you @Redhelen, you just know you're going to be singing "I'm a Barnsley girl, in a Barnsley Woooorld" to the tune of Aqua's Barbie Girl! Might as well go full speed ahead with the camp, bubble-gum pop chants!
