    Shouldn’t it be ’when the reggae rhythm...’?

    I don’t actually know how the lyrics to TC’s chant ended up as “samba”, the original song lyrics are “marimba rhythm…”.

    Yeah, should be marimba, but sadly it will never change now.

    Because Palace did 'samba' for their Brazilian bloke França and everyone copied from there. Sad that one of our most sung chants comes from the Holmesdale virgins.

    That’s is devastating information. I knew we would have copied it from someone, I didn’t realise it was from them though. Doubly disappointing as we’ve retained their innovation in the lyrics which made sense for their player but makes none for ours.

    Stop singing it then. Replace it with something else.

    How about a reggae song, Sister Nancy's "Bam Bam."

    See him on the wing, watch him fly, fly, fly,
    Leave the defender just a-wondering why.
    He plays at the Valley, he's a Reggae Boy,
    Scoring another goal just to give us joy!

    Ty-reece Camp-bell!
