dont know if its been mentioned but celtic and a few other clubs have this chant, an easy one to follow.

Just change celtic to phoenix, glascows green and white to wellingtons yellow and black etc and it would work pretty well.

Possibly "So cool on the field tonight" could be "So cool for the Phoenix tonight"...?

the extra syllable scans more like "cold in the desert tonight"...

Hey Smithy, when you post thing songs we agreed on today, is it possible to post links to the tunes as well? Otherwise, I'm quite happy to try look the all up.

I'm not sure about the Sierra Leone chant. The actual song has a slightly different structure. 

It doesn't ever naturally move from "So cool on the field tonight" into "Rierra Rierra, Rierra Rierra, Rierra Rierra". Feels a little awkward.

Definitely worth a try at the Bencher though to see if it takes.

I prefer "So cool for the Phoenix tonight" as more of a link to cold in the desert tonight, and Albert is cool... but I am not going to die in a ditch over it.

Nice simple chant that I think we could modify to use

Allez allez allez oh,
Allez allez allez oh,
We're Phoenix FC
Ernie's Yellow army...

https://soundcloud.com/officialeverton/allez-allez...

Even with the soundlcoud link, I can't get it right in my head. Someone's gonna have to demo this to me at the Bencher.

 Love the look of it, simple, catchy (I think) and it's got Phoenix and Yellow in it... so it ticks a lot of boxes.

...it could even be used to roll into a medley with Ernie Merrick's Yellow Army too...

Same for me too, I can't hold a tune to save myself so will need a demo first.
