yeah m8 i wuz at cass i must av missed them then wot were they, can i just say im not avin a go at any of our fans because i think we have a top following with top people,its just that i would love to hear a few more diffo ones,

I particularly enjoyed the 'Sheeerrrrrwwwiiinnn' and of course the old favourite 'Sweat band give us a wave' (he did!)

Theres no point in postin chants on here because they never catch on. Ive put a few ideas on here over the years and the only one that ever caught on was the "Trent will tear you apart" one. The best thing to do is get in a big group at an away game and just start singin any new song you've made up and hope people listen and learn.

Sadly most rugby fans don't seem to be able to grasp chants with more than one line in them.

For Roberts i would go with the John O'Shea chant later copied by the mousers for Torres (with completely different words). This should be simple enoughhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v

I suggested that ages ago, I just rekon people would take to the other one better because we have done it before.

I personally would prefer the O'Shea chant, ive always liked it from following United, sounds quality with a couple of thousand singin it. But your probably right, the other one would catch on better. We'll see.

True! I do love the song. I think we just need more variation in general really. It would be easier if we had more big away trips so people could pick them up better. Most people don't bother trying to join in though.

Been trying to come up with a new Amos song, got the tune just need to make the words fit.

We all remember this one from the late eighties?:

Who can catch, can catch our Amos,
I can't answer, I can't answer that,
Who will stop him getting his picture in the papers,
I can't answer, I can't answer that....!!!!


And so on.....!!

I have just been trying to make up a song for Amos, the tune is the Copacabana by Barry manilow!!! here is the tune and starts about 25 seconds in www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_o8F36CfHU Its just a start but this is what I came up with. His Name is Amos He is a showman With Red and white upon his back He makes you look crap He has a sidestep you can only dream of and whilst he is a Star and a Wigan Warrior Who can ask for more Amos is gonna score...... then repeat

How about;
We've are the greatest club in the world,
We've GOT Roberts and Tommy,
Lockers and Tomkins,
Paddy and Paul Deacoooooooooonnn.

These where the first names that came into my head! I like the one we sing now but they are all past players. We could also use the simple ones like;
"He runs to the left,
he runs to the righttt,
Amos Roberts,
he makes you look sh**e"
or maybe;
"There’s only one amos roberts,
one amos roberts,
he used to be sh**e,
but now hes alright,
walking in a wigan wonderland"

although "alright" is an understatement

Been thinking for 5 minutes about this. To the tune of the Torres one

Runs down the wing, as if he flies, Roberts Roberts
He joined Wigan and loved the Pies, Roberts Roberts,
He isn't used to British rain, but he gets the ball, he scores again,
AMOS ROBERTS WIGANS NUMBER 2.


Rubbish I know, but if something like that got going, could get a great atmosphere going with the na na na na na na na bit too
