For the first 30 minutes of our coverage on Friday night we will be playing football songs and talking about them.
Does anyone have any requests and a bit of a blurb about the song?
Cheers
Mick

West Ham maintained a good record, eventually gaining promotion into Division 1 in the 1922-23 season when they finished second to Notts County and were runners-up at Wembley's first ever Cup Final. Over the next few years the team struggled into mid or lower-table positions as money was spent on ground improvements rather than players, but in 1926-27 they achieved a club best after an inspired season finishing in sixth place. It was during this period that the Hammers acquired it's club 'song'. An advertisement for soap featured a curly-headed baby blowing bubbles, and this was likened to one of the West Ham players, so the song was jokingly aimed at him, but the, sometimes appropriate, words of 'I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles' ensured the song was to remain a permanent feature at matches involving the 'Irons'.

The worst ever song by a footballer has to be Chris Waddle and Glen Hoddle in the 80's, it was so bad!
Three Lions was great - Frank Skinner tried so hard yet was still crap while David Baddiel just didn't give a toss!
I have the Ant and Dec 1 from 2002 - We're on the ball - what a shocker that was too!

Oh my God, they're going to play Ricky. Help me Rhonda, I don't believe it!!
Can some ex-Poms help me here? Was the Aztec Camera song "Good Morning Britain" used by the England team at one stage, perhaps before and during a World Cup.
Also, the excellent "Time to Say Goodbye", by Sarah Brightman & the incomparable Andrea Bocelli was used at Barcelona 92 but I'm pretty sure it has also been used for major football competitions in the last 10 years.
Oh, yes, my memory is starting to work. Wasn't there an ad done starring footballers to the tune of "A Little Less Conversation" by Elvis vs JXL.
