Song for Gus
The
hype surrounding Brighton and Hove Albion's FA Cup
fourth round game at Aston Villa has seen an utter farce over ticketing,
inflatable's and balloons, but perhaps most worryingly
it has bought a more alarming matter to the attention
of Brighton fans everywhere - Gus Poyet does not have
a song.
Albion
fans have a proud tradition over innovative songs for
their managers - Steve Gritt and later Russell Slade were
hailed through the medium of verse for their baldness
while Mark McGhee was serenaded with an anthem regarding
him drinking pints of whiskey to the tune of 'Let it Be'
by The Beatles. Mr Poyet has been at the club for just
over three months now and yet - nothing. It is such a
pressing matter that it has even made the pages of The Argus.
So,
we have pooled together what we
feel are the top efforts and presented them, together
with their YouTube originals, alongside a few of our own
frankly pretty poor attempts for you to judge.

I
Wanna Dance With Gus Poyet
Inspired
by Whitney Houston's dance floor anthem, this
one gained early popularity on North Stand Chat
Lyrics:
I wanna dance with Gus Poyet
I wanna feel the heat with Gus Poyet
Yeah, wanna dance with Gus Poyet
With Gus Poyet who loves me |

Gus
Poyet wooo-ahhh-ooohhh
A
popular terrace chant already, this adaptation
of Dean Martin's 'Volare' has instigated much
debate over what the final line should actually
be
Lyrics:
Gus Poyet wooo-ahhh-ooohhhh
Gus
Poyet wooo-ahhh-ooohhhh
He came from Uruguay
He'll make the Seagulls fly |
|
Gus
Poyeeet
That
annoying Go Compare advert featuring the tenner
is given a new lease of life with this beautiful
adaptation
Lyrics:
Gus
Poyeeet, Gus Poyeeet,
Forget the rest; we’ve got the best with Gus Poyeeet,
With Forster scoring
And Seagulls soaring,
Then you’ll thank your stars that you went with
Gus Poyeeet |

All
You Need Is Gus
Popular
during the Doug Loft song craze that swept the
terraces last season, this is a simple adaptation
of the Beatles anthem All You Need is Love
Lyrics:
All
you need is Gus
All you need is Gus
All you need is Gus, Gus
Gus is all you need

Gus
Poyet aha aha I like it
KC
and the Sunshine Band demonstrated their lyrical
genius with this tune. This new take on an old
favourite is a simple adjustment to the
bulk of the song with the "That's the
way" line being replaced with Gus Poyet
Lyrics:
Gus
Poyet aha aha I like it aha aha
Gus Poyet aha aha I like it aha aha
Gus Poyet aha aha I like it aha aha
Gus Poyet aha aha I like it aha aha

Gus
Poyet's Alright For Fighting
Representing
the gay capital of Britain, it seems a shame that
more Elton songs are not utilised. Saturday Nights
Alright For Fighting offers the chance to rectify
that, with the final chorus section being craftily
substituted with Gus' name
Lyrics:
Gus
Poyet, Gus Poyet, Gussss Poyet
Gus Poyet, Gus Poyet, Gussss Poyet
Gus Poyet, Gus Poyet, Gussss Poyet
He's alright
