Probably should've thought of this before episode #26 but all of the #TottenhamUltras talk just reminded me...
Some of you might recall a guy in 2004 from TopSpurs set up asongforledley.co.uk in order to inspire a chant for Ledley that didn't mention judas in it as well. There were some decent ideas but it never spread properly and quickly died out. Anyway, while we have had another popular song since, I can't help but feel we've yet again let Ledders down by comparing him to that racist in west London.
Yes, we make it clear he's still better and both songs should still be sung but nevertheless it feels wrong to me that King has never had his own proper chant. My favourite attempts back in '04 were some of the national anthem renditions although it is incredibly hard to get it going at the lane;
Does anyone else feel the same way and think a TFC #songforledley movement should be next on the cards? Or is it not worth even trying as it failed last time and chants tend to be a spur of the moment kind of thing with originality becoming even harder to inspire at home recently...

God save our Ledley King
Long live our noble King
God Save our King
Send him victorious
Happy and glorious
Long to reign over us
God save our King
