The Oshilaja song...

AFKABartram

is absolute cringe.

i get copying songs from other teams but a blatant player rip off one just don’t work.

Oshilaja works with the chorus, just come up with some other relevant / Charlton words to go around it.

(for those unaware, we’ve nicked Leicester’s La Bamba song they used to sing to Harry Maguire. It’s about him liking, vodka, jäger and having a massive head. We’ve just changed the words Harry Maguire to Oshilaja). It’s like us singing a Peter Crouch song to Oztumer because it fits. 

Scoham

He’s short,
He’s red,
His feet stay in the bed,
Oztumer, Oztumer

His heads not even that big

Half the songs that come from the upper tier are disturbingly cringey! 

Some right weapons up there.

Probably one of the loudest songs that were sang last night though lol

Although the atmosphere has improved drastically over the last season or two, the lack of originality in the chants has bordered embarrassing at times.

Some were even trying to get 'Tequila' going, which has got fck all relevance to us and has just been stolen off of a fan page on instagram or wherever they get their ideas from.

Cast the Ole song to room 101

Away fans praise our atmosphere, players and Bowyer praise our atmosphere yet anyone not sat in the NU seems to find it cringey. Other than just moaning about what is sung, do people have other suggestions other than turningit into a grave yard ?

Pelling1993

Couldn't really give a toss how cringe the songs are to be honest, it achieved its purpose, the place was rocking in the first half

sam3110

At least sing "his thighs are fucking massive" or something relevant to him

Oshilaja
Oshilaja

He'll fucking smash ya
Then he'll run past ya

His legs are fucking massive

probably the same people that stay seated when 'stand up if you love charlton' gets going.

Watching it on the telebox all I could hear was noise. 
And it was great noise. 
I couldn’t understand a word of it tbh but it made my heart swell that the covered end were in full flow again. 
Let em sing what they like, the original songs will come. 
Apart from that Adams Family one. I hate that. Never sing that again!

It's Allez not ole, and it's better than some of the other tripe that's gets sung (the Addams family song for instance)

This. Suggest that the club put Blankets, train timetables and flasks of bovril on the seats for Saturdays game.

You think the Belgian is going to pay for that lot ? :-)

Ideally it would be great to come up with our own songs but we've never been great at that. I'd rather sing the Oshilaja song and Alez etc etc than have no atmosphere at all. 

CAFCBourne

And it was sung far to often absolute toilet 

charlton_hero

The last couple of seasons under Bowyer have produced some of the best atmospheres in memory, enjoy it and stop moaning.

As long as there’s a load of noise supporting Bowyers red n white army they can sing the birdie song for all I care (with the actions) ......actually.........er........nah.......maybe!

We’re famed for it. That said, keep making a noise as loud as I could hear through the tele last night, and who cares. It’s the atmosphere that matters, not the lyrics.

Terrible song. Lyrics are irrelevant.

To the tune of Na Na Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye.

Oshilaja
Oshilaja
He will stop you
Getting by.

Ooh get you 😉 It depends who sings it. Lots of people sing the wrong words which I find amusing. I’m sure there’s a thread about it in the archives somewhere. 

It was also noticeable on how fast VFR was sung last night especially when compared to Forest’s original. The Cupboard end can go through it twice to Forest once. So that should be put into the stats 2-1. 🤓
