Somebody comes up with a chant, maybe shares it with a couple of mates and then what? The four of them start singing it in a packed crowd and hope that others pick up on it? Β Or do they evolve? Some of the chants in the early days especially were quite complicated with verses etc so itβs not as though folk could repeat them after a first run through. A lot of ours seem nicked/adapted from other clubs. Remember a mate coming up with one at an away game and trying to get folk in the pre match pub to adopt it but it never caught on. Anyhoo, I reckon we need something rousing to remind everyone - including our current players - of our proud history perhaps referencing David Jack, Sir Nat, 4 FA cups and other famous victories. Has anyone here ever witnessed the birth of a new chant that was adopted by the fans? We could do one about the first goal ever scored in league football anywhere in the world being scored by a Boltonian in Bolton for Bolton. Message to world: Copy that one you fuckers. Quote
