As the season has finished and I have some time to kill before returning to work, I was thinking of football chants at Braintree Town with a little bit more about them than the “Yellows” “Iron” One that stays in my head is from the season Ebbsfleet, Canvey & Braintree were going for Promotion from the Ryman Premier, can’t remember if Ebbsfleet won it and Canvey 2nd, Braintree played home to Ebbsfleet and Canvey in the last month of the season, big crowds for both (not compared to Conference Premier standards but to what we were getting in Ryman Premier) Anyway in to town came Jeff Kings his body guards and Canvey for a promotion game. The chant that day….. was to the theme tune of Tv show “Dad’s Army” We changed some of the lyrics… “Who do you think you are kidding Canvey Eye Land if you think the League is won” “We have the boys to stop your silly game’s, we have the boys that will make you think again” “So who do you think you are kidding Canvey Eye Land if you think the League is won” Simple lyrics easy to remember and can be adapted for any teams with the same number of syllables (4) going for promotion. For example next season replace Canvey Island with Tranmere Rovers / Bristol Rovers. If you too young to remember Dads Army, a link for the tune….. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jvr6X054xLY
