    Things can only get better.
    10 thousand Charlton fans singing at OT in '94, it was great. Lasted 90 secs after the restart.

    Before we go any further, is this a thread for songs to cheer us up for our current run, or to list the most obscure cheer up songs on the planet?

    Mines; I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.

    And we played it every bloody week after that as we gradually slipped down the table. Still hate it as a result.

    Wham! Bam! my cat Splash
    lies on my bed with his tongue puffed out
    by drinking all my whisky.
    As for me, not enough sleep, drained, persecuted,
    I had to sleep in the gutter
    where I had a flash
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    in four colours

    Allez-oop! One morning
    a darling came to my home,
    a cellophane puppet with Chinese hair,
    a plaster, a hangover,
    drank my beer in a large rubber glass
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    like an Indian in his igloo

    This works for me, this works for me
    This works for me me me me me
    This work for me
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    This works for me

    Allez-oop! The chick***, what a gas!
    what a vibration!
    to be sent on the door mat
    filed, ruined, drained, filled
    You are the King of the divan!
    she says to me in passing
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    I am the King of the divan

    This works for me, this works for me
    This works for me me me me me
    This workss for me
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    This works for me

    Allez-oop! Don't mind, don't worry
    Don't affect me
    It’s not today
    that the sky will fall on my head
    and I'll be without glue
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    This life’s for me

    Allez-oop! my chick has gone away,
    flew away, finally had enough, to break
    the sink, the bar, leaving me alone
    like a complete jerk
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    I've put my foot in it

    This works for me, this works for me
    This works for me me me me me
    This workss for me
    Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
    This works for me
    This workss for me, this works for me
    This works for me me me me me

    But impossible in football, unless we're talking 2 points out of 3 games, which is relegation form. :-)

    I don't know about a song but how about
    'Good Times' to be played (circa 1979) by Chic?
    Just as we run out after the Red, Red Robin!
    If you youngsters don't know it look it up on Utube.

    Great news! Found the new club anthem, never heard of it but it's clearly written for us, thank you Elton! http://www.eltonography.com/songs/just_like_belgium.html

    We'll need to amend some of the lyrics, although "Streetwalkers sweet talk you out of your spare change" is clearly a direct reference to those tasty lasses that flog the matchday programmes these days. Also, "The few francs we saved bought some cheap souvenirs" is obviously talking about Christophe Lepoint and Roger Johnson, and most poignantly, "Our code of living meant little to others" - we all know that Katrien and Roland don't give a monkeys about our code of living.

    Just Like Belgium

    Music: Elton John
    Lyrics: Bernie Taupin

    Remember Belgium and the Brussels Museum
    Where we piled on the front steps like stray cavaliers
    Our code of living meant little to others
    The few francs we saved bought some cheap souvenirs
    But the red lights where the catfights make it just like Belgium
    See us face down on the floor of another cheap barroom
    Streetwalkers sweet talk you out of your spare change
    And your sweet madame makes it seem just like Belgium
    Just like a hustler when they look attractive
    It's nothing more than a slap on the back
    The price tag of being just a little bit different
    The first rule to learn is to keep your own distance

    I was there that day, it was absolutely brilliant. Weren't we winning 1-0 as well?

    "Things can only get better" never sounded so good.

    It was 0-0 at h/t but the great Dane had been sent off so it felt like we were in the
    lead.

    The 10 men of united showed their class in 2nd half.
