I know we have a few chants for our players which are sung when they come out onto the field of play and at other times during a game. At away games especially, the players seem to enjoy the recognition and applaud the fans. We've got 'Rene Howe Super Rene Howe naa naa naa naa naa naa naa naa naa naa naa', we've got ' Nicholson, Nicholson', we've got Lee Lee Lee Mansell, we've got, 'der der der der Danny Stevens', we've got, Saah, Saah will tear you apart again' and we've got,'Eunan, Eunan'.

It is making me very upset that not every player gets this recognition in terms of a chant or song and i feel all 11 players that step out onto the pitch at kick off should have a song/chant sung from Bobby right through to Rene. I think Damon has one but i'm not sure. Surely it is time that we all got our heads together and came up with the goods for all the lads? Any chants about any players welcomed...............................................................

You know what, I was just thinking about the same sort of thing. You can always tell when we're doing well as all the players have an individual song. The last time I remember us like this was the 03-04 promotion season, where i think only Craig Taylor didn't have his own song (although Brian McGlincheys and Arjan van Heusdens were effectively the same).

By my reckoning only Lathrope and Morris of the regular starters don't have individual songs of note. Both seem to get the "theres only one ........", which to be fair is traditionally Mark Ellis'.

Perhaps it would get a good response if we were able to come up with something clearly individual for Morris. Obviously Ling and Manse were aware of him getting some abuse, so if we can really gee him up at Barnet it might give all the lads a bit of a lift.

It's got to be demoralising for Lathrope and Morris that even McPhee and LRT have more individual songs for them, and there was even more Billy Kee singing at Burton than there was for Morris and Lathrope!

To the tune of "heartbeat". Lathrope, I would scared if you tried to tackle me, de de de de, de de de de de, de de de de, de de de Damon lathrope, defensive lynchpin in midfield for Torquay, de de de etc.

I made up a Danny Stevens one about 2 years ago and some idiot took credit for it as soon as i moved back to Leeds anyway! it goes to the tune of Liverpool's old Torres song and Southampton's Ricky Lambert song .. He Stands at only 4ft3 Danny Danny, He'll take us to the Premier League Danny Danny! He gets the ball, He takes the piss, he hasn't grown since he was 6, Danny Stevens Torquay's goal machine! Na na na na na na na na na na etc .. And one for Damon could be "Damon Lathrope is a Football genius .. clap clap clap clap clap clap" etc

I posted this on the "Yellow Army" part of the forum about a month ago but not sure if people saw it .. however i think this could be a decent club anthem for us?

how about this ..WHEN I WAS A YOUNG BOY MY FATHER SAID TO ME LISTEN ERE MY SON YOUR T U F C! HERE, WE ARE, YOU'LL KNOW US BY OUR NOISE, PRIDE OF SOUTH DEVON THE FAMOUS TORQUAY BOYS!! OOOOOAAAHH OOOOOOOAAAH OOOOOOOAAAHH OH!!! .. just after a minute in its good. " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Racking my brains now. I've got on for Bobby if anyone is interested. To the tune of Whigfields' 'Saturday Night' dance classic.

Saturday's here and he's gonna make a save, it's Olejnik
He's big and he's strong , looks like he lives in a cave, it's Olejnik.

Got one brewing for Tai now........................

Naaa Na, nanananaaaaaaaaa, nanananaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Taiwoooooooooooo, Naaa Na, nanananaaaaaaaaaaa, nanananaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Taiwoooooooo

To the tune of Wham's 'Wake me up before you go go'.

Wake me up, it's Atieno
Give him the ball and he'll score a goal so
Wake me up, it's Atieno
Keep him scoring all night!!!!!!

( obviously more relevant at night matches but you get the general idea!)

To the tune of Billy Joel's Uptown Girl

Joe Oastler, he's a superduper Torquay defender, that's what he is......whoaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh. Joe Oastler, he's a superduper Torquay defender, that's what he is.

I really hope you can pull out a great song for Morris and make him feel better and show him we do appreciate what he does!

We've got one for damon sang it Saturday

super damon lathrope he wears a magic hat
and when he signed for torquay he said I'm having that
he wouldn't sign for norwich or swindon coz their shite

That's his song and it worked well when we all sang it,

As for bobby he's got one
BOBBY OLEJKNIK dududududu BOBBY OLEJNIK,

Ian morris hasn't but was thinking along the lines of the song ballotelli's got,

Oooooh Ian morris he's our winger he's fu***ng class
he'll shoot at every chance and he'll dribble 40 yards
he's better than ronaldo and he's better than kaka
oooooh Ian morris
