Simon Lappin, King of Spain, He looks Spanish!

Good to see were starting to sing a few more chants rather than the 3-4 songs we normally sing

Quite a few suggestions there but which one actually was it!? Could we please have someone come in and confirm it please so I can sing it properly and not look like an idiot at the Colchester game![:D]

[Gerry Harrison 2]

Give me your Colchester ticket and I will go to the game instead

Simon Lappin, King of Spain, He looks Spanish! ''

Thats what I was singing in the Lower Barclay, and it sounded about right :P

I sit in the Aviva Community Stand and I heard it, so they definately sang it!  I could get the tune and the name Simon Lappin but not the rest!

Being one of the founding fathers of this particular song in Lower Barclay, Block E I can whole heartedly confirm that it is KING OF SPAIN and not "is from spain"

It''s a great song!

I was told it was,

When Simon Lappin grows a beard, grows a beard, grows a beard,

When Simon Lappin grows a beard, he looks Spanish.

[quote user="Babyface"]I was told it was,

When Simon Lappin grows a beard, he looks Spanish.[/quote]If we were to go with the beard theme, surely the last few words should be "In 3 seconds" as he''s a hairy chap that seems to be able to grow enough facial fuzz for everyone in only a short period of time. Having said this, that would remove the Spanish element and that would then be a negative.

[/quote]Sorry mate as the real founding father of that song i have to take issue with that!!!!!! Me and my mate have been singing that since the dartford preseason game and have been trying to get it started at away games since then. Brilliant that it''s finally caught on, couldn''t believe it when i heard it today (watching on the internet not at the game alas!), but as it is the best thing i''ve ever done I will have to claim it for my own.P.S. How about a round of "Fraser Forster''s massive head"?????
