Song for Greg Docherty?

Do we have a song for our captain yet? If not - I'd like to suggest this as a rough idea:
To the music of Only Fools & Horses outro theme "Hookey Street", starting from the "No income tax, no V.A.T" line

When Greg attacks, it’s plain to see
What your team lacks, is Docherty
He's red & white
He's out for more
Charlton's captain is at your door!!!

God Bless Docherty!
Viva Docherty!
Long Live Docherty!
C’est magnifique Docherty!
Magnifique Docherty!

La la la laa la la laaa Doherty!
La la la laa la la laaa Doherty!
La la la laa la la laaa Doherty!

    Hull apparently had a version of She's Electric:

    He's Glaswegian
    He's signed for us for a good reason
    He's keeping us up this season
    Greg Doch-er-ty

    The third line would need to be 'he's taking us up this season', and the second line is crap.  Plus he's only sort of Glaswegian.  But erm, his name is Greg Docherty?

    (Your one is better!)

    Ahh I didn't know that
    Just thought i'd try something different. Rather than shoehorning names into already established songs, sung by every other club in the 92

    If this is your song then I love it

    If it is a copy of a song another team uses for one of their players, then bin it.

    As far as I'm aware, this song isn't used by any other team.
    And considering our "Rodney Charlton Trotter" connection... i thought it was a no brainer.

    I suspect we'll end up with Doch, Doch, Docherty, as per the chant used for Kinsella and many others...

    He's Electric
    He plays for Charlton Athletic
    He's taking us up this season
    Greg Doch-er-ty

    modified to a similar version used for Conor Gallagher though do like the only fools song at the top.

    I thought Coventry's song was the same as Connor Gallagher's to the tune of This Girl by Cookin' on 3 Burners and Kungs?

    That's the better one, but like Gallagher for some reason he's got both. 

    The other one is 'he's the reason, we're getting promoted this season, something something something believe in, Conor Coventry'

    It's crap tbf
