WELCOME, João Gomes!!!

[k-dog]

They said he’s going to Lyon
It’s getting him down, yeah.
But he will never be free
Until he’s Wolves Bound, Yeah

Joao’s got a ticket to ride…?

 

[WickedWolfie]

I think, after seeing some of these "efforts", that some of you are determined to drive the poor bloke to sign for Lyon lol.....

 

[Tring Wolf]

Reckon the South Bank is itching for a bit of Barry Manilow…

Oh Joao Gomes, came from Flamengo
When Lyon came calling, he said no
Oh Joao Gomes, came from Flamengo
His tackling and passion are part of the fashion
At Molineux, we fell in love…

 

[k-dog]

Is he actually signing, or am I wasting my time trying to rhyme Joao Gomes into Wired For Sound by Cliff Richard?

 

[Jayjaywolves]

Can you get dogpooh sandwiches in there somehow??? Just asking for a friend..... lol

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

The Amy Winehouse one is good but it's a bit short, unless there's a longer version knocking about that I haven't seen. The short version is more a message you'd put on a t-shirt than a football chant.

You mean Theres only one Joao Gomez is long?
I do think we should shelve the chants till hes actually here,but you just know it will be Joao had a dream dont you lol

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

John Textor just sent this one

You aint nothing but a Wanderer
Refusing all the time
You wont come to Lyon
And you aint no friend of mine

I know ,Elvis would roll in his grave

 

[WISAW]

This thread man......

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Out of interest, has any song ever made it from the Mix and out onto the terraces?

 

[Norman Bell]

Barry Manilow and Cliff Richard mentioned in consecutive posts on here by @Tring Wolf and @k-dog as the great Buford T Justice says in Smokey and the Bandit

" What the hell is the world coming to ! "

 

[k-dog]

No

 

[SuperGran]

It’s an impossible dream

 

[DPE]

If he signs now, after telling the owner to do one, I'm buying a shirt, only second one since returning to premier league, the day after he signs, with his name on the back.

Out of interest, has any song ever made it from the Mix and out onto the terraces?

No because 90% don’t go to games.

 

[crocos]

Needs a bit of work, but something around the Proclaimers song:

When he wakes up, well he knows he's gonna be,
He's gonna be the man who plays at Molineux
And he would roll 500 miles
And he would roll 500 more
Just to be the man who [plays at Molineux].

Jooooão Gomes Jooooão Gomes

 

[TriumphWolf]

Regarding a song, I’d imagine someone creative could do something good with Roger Daltrey’s Free Me - those of an older vintage should remember it well

Jooooão Gomes Jooooão Gomes

Free Joao Gomes,
Free Joao Gomes,
Dadadumdededumdededumdadedadadum

 

[Dan G WWFC]

I love how we make up all these chants but we know we'll just shout Gomes on repeat

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Out of interest, has any song ever made it from the Mix and out onto the terraces?

Yeah, the impossible dream. Lasted one game before the 20 people reading the lyrics from a hymn sheet realised it was a funeral song

 

[Adrian_Monk]

You just know it won't be more complicated than 'one João Gomes'

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Yeah, the impossible dream. Lasted one game before they 20 people reading the lyrics from a hymn sheet realised it was a funeral song

Yes, was at that game. Think it's the first time I've ever felt awkward at a football match!

 

[WasStefan]

****ing hell. Stop it. Some of the lyrics here are shocking. Noel Gallagher you are not

Jooooão Gomes Jooooão Gomes

Surely it should be 'run' instead of 'roll' ?!

 

[Jayjaywolves]

Yes, was at that game. Think it's the first time I've ever felt awkward at a football match!

I think the most awkward I've been this season is when a lovely chap next to me shouted "Kieran, you're a dick ****er" to tripper as he was about to take a corner. The bloke next to me sat straight down leaving me standing there to receive the eyeballing of a century.

 

[Gold Umbro]

Out of interest, has any song ever made it from the Mix and out onto the terraces?

No so please stop
Has he signed yet?

 

[crocos]

Surely it should be 'run' instead of 'roll' ?!

I think you're right - I C&Pd from google lyrics

 

[Jonzy54]

Yeah, the impossible dream. Lasted one game before the 20 people reading the lyrics from a hymn sheet realised it was a funeral song

It was great on the Honda commercial

 

[Achilles Last Stand]

Regarding a song, I’d imagine someone creative could do something good with Roger Daltrey’s Free Me - those of an older vintage should remember it well

Good shout, but Unfortunately waaaay too slow for a terrace chant.

 

[Woburn Wolf]

No because 90% don’t go to games.

Even those that do don't sing songs unless they are on the South Bank plus a few on the North Bank maybe.

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

When we sign you baby,
The heart beat of the team (oh, oh, yeah)
You wanna stay with this club forever
Only Wolves can set Joao free
When I wake each morning
And the storm beats down on me
And I know we belong together
Only Wolves can set Joao free
Set Joao free
Set Joao free
Set Joao free
Set Joao free
Oh, oh, yeah
When we touch each other
In the state of ecstasy
Want this night to last forever
Only Wolves can set Joao free

Thought given the accent yow and Joao are pretty interchangeable. Could do with something for the two lines in bold though.

 

[Wolf in the sun]

ultra nate...free ? ok i will go back in my cupboard

 

[TheRetroChief]

Out of interest, has any song ever made it from the Mix and out onto the terraces?

Probably not. And for good reason.

 

[SquaddieWolf]

No

I expected better from you, cant lie

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Yes, was at that game. Think it's the first time I've ever felt awkward at a football match!

I remember my dad (who never went on Molineux mix back then) turning to me and saying 'what the hell is all this?'

 

[Bacon Sandwich]

OK, you buggers, this scans.

It assumes he wears #35 like at Flamengo but two lines can easily be re-written

Amy Winehouse, obviously



They tried to make him go to Lyon

He said, ‘No, no way.’

You wanna play for Wolverhampton?

He said, ‘Yay, yay, yay.’

Joao Gomes wears thirty-five

He’s the best player alive

And now the boy is here in England

He’s a wolf, wolf, wolf

 

[westside wolf]

Just FYI, Joao isn't pronounced "Jow", more like "Jer-ow-m" (almost silent "m").

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

I expected better from you, cant lie

Think set Joao free works.

Admit the rest is a first draft though

 

[Very Proud (AKA Still Proud)]

21 years in captivity
He so good with the ball at his feet
He came to Wolves cuz we set him free
Lyon's so blind that they could not see? I said.......
Freeeeeeeeeeed, Wanderers Joao Gomes, I'm telling ya
We freeeeeeeeeeed Wanderers Joao Gomes
Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeed Wanderers Joao Gomes
Freed, freed, freed, Wanderers Joao Gomes


****es all over @Sedgley Gold N Black 's effort He better bloody sign now.....

 

[Eastyorksyeltz]

Just FYI, Joao isn't pronounced "Jow", more like "Jer-ow-m" (almost silent "m").

No, in Wolverhampton it definitely is pronounced Jow, no matter where he comes from. Just a fact of life.
