How about 'Houllier Out'?

To any tune you wish

The Bells Are Ringing should be our anthem but rarely gets an airing which is a great pity.

There was a song sung to the tune of Abide With Me in the mid-70's which I haven't heard for donkeys years. I don't know the words but again it was classy. The bits I remember mention "In divisions two and three/Oh Aston Villa Abide With Me". Anyone recall it?

I always had a soft spot for My eyes Have Seen the Glory and Villa Score.

First time i've heard that.

A few years ago at Blackburn, some bloke started chanting a story and then everyone started yippy i ay. Can't for the life of me remember what he was saying.

HolteEnders in the sky gives me goosebumps when I hear it. It's pretty distinctive too.

Check out the 1975 League Cup final DVD to hear it song properly compared with the bastardised abomination it has become.

to the tune of ghostriders in the sky,
i was walking down by villa park one dark and dusky day
away, away, away
i spied this lonely city fan running fast away
away, away, away
i said to this city fan it is time for you to die
die, die, die you bastard die
you have met the wonder of holte enders in the sky
yippee i aye, yippee i oh

After today, I can't think of a better one than: 'We're shit, and we know we are'. Repeat until fall asleep, or until we score if you've got good lungs.
