A possible chant for Bilyaletdinov??

Comments (26)

Right fellow ToffeeWebbers, I know this may be slightly jumping the gun due to the fact that young Bily hasn't really had a chance to show us how good he is but if he turns out to be a (not so little corker!) could this be a possible chant for him?

To the tune of Danny Boy:

Oh Bily boy... the ball, the ball is calling,
So lift your head and turn towards that goal,
Oh Bily boy... we love it when you're scoring,
So show your best and go score us a goal.

Just a thought guys, would love to hear your responses, or any other ideas.

I suppose it's too late to call him Bil-ya? Sounds vaguely kinda scouse... dunnit, eh, lar? Or maybe that's more Essex Girl...

I think a simple:

(phoenetic)

"Oooohh Billy Billy..... Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy alt-dinov"

Or....

"Oooooooh, Woahhhh, Bily.... Ooh Aaah, I wanna know — woooahhh, how you say your name!"

Should probably wait and see if he’s any good before we give him a chant.

He may be one of these overseas players who cannot adapt to the Premier League or the UK.

Fingers crossed he’s good though.

Peter’s 2nd one is hilarious — the only problem I can see is that the shite used it for Jon Arne Riise, so that's out the window!!

"Lyalya", or Bilyash (depending) tried his hand at rap once. It wasn’t great, but maybe he’ll come out with his own ditty one day!!

Perhaps we should trawl our vast song archives for inspiration. Any good old songs from the 60s that we could adapt?

Coming back to town on the bus after Sunday’s game, heard this bit of banter....
’Should play that Bily from the start next game and fuck Osman off’
’Is that another Russian we’ve signed?’

What about to the tune of Go West....
Dini-YAR, Bil-ya-let- din-ov etc... or is that one saved for big Dunc? It works in terms of fitting in all the syllables and the Russian angle too, make him feel right at home, with, erm, the Pet Shop Boys.

Been practising the name, what with lots of spare time on me hands, and I start saying it out loud with the phrase ’Will you let him off’ in my head. Works a treat!

Pete Lav’, second was an absolute corker... and to Jamie Hynes it's Duncs tune other fans have tried and failed to use it for their players.

I think it would be disrespectful to the big fella if we were to use it on someone else, besides he might get in a big mood and send a fleet of his pigeons to shit on us all on match day!!

Set to the tune of Come On Irene.

Come on Bily,
Can you score us a goal
At this moment it means everything,
The teams in a mess,
We need you your the best,
Ah come on Bily.

I’m looking forward to a ’Barry Hoooooorrrrrne’ style ’Wooooooooooorrrf’ when we’ve got Man City.

What! Too soon?

"We all agree... Bil-Ya-Let-Din-Ov is Magic!"... Hopefully Duncan won't mind.

To all who remember "Little Jimmy" by the Undertones:

Poor little Bily-boy he did what he was told,
He glided past the Shite's defence and stuck one in the goal,
BilyBily, BilyBily ohhh
BilyBily, BilyBily
All the Shite were tied up in knots and the Blues are on a roll.

Whats the point in making up a chant? Nobody sings in Goodison anymore....other than EVERTON, EVERTON, EVERTON or FEED THE YAK AND HE WILL SCORE and that hasn’t happened in quite some time.

I can really hear this from the crowd...

To the tune of The Delfonics - Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time):

Diniyar blew your mind this time, Diniyar, oh
Diniyar blew your mind this time, Diniyar!

Diniyar do it baby... Diniyar I do it baby
Diniyar do it baby... Diniyar do it baby.

DINI - BILY (clap clap, clap clap clap)
DINI - BILY ........

Simple, should let him know he’s welcome and will get more elegiac as the performances pile up (which I suspect they will).

I don’t know the origin of the tune, but it’s normally sung *someone* is our leader, *someone* is our leader, a laa la la, a laa la la, and repeat.

Replace *someone* is our leader with "Bil y a let din ov, Bil y a let din ov" and away we go!

Bil y a let din ov
Bil y a let din ov
A laa la la
A laa la la

That’s got to be a winner??!!!

Let’s hope he actually turns out to be good, otherwise those songs will quickly become redundant.
