How long does it take for a new chant to become tiresome? On the evidence of this season so far, about 3 and a bit games. The one in question, no doubt imported from higher up the footballing food chain, is that Pigbag riff followed by F***ING USELESS which suddenly seems to be the go-to response to any piece of ineptitude by an opposition player.
As this is the Blue Square Premier not the Champions bloody League, it goes without saying that barely five minutes can elapse without someone shinning the ball into touch or skewing a pass into the stand (and that's just us when we're playing well), so the chortling goons have almost unlimited scope to play their latest jingle and boy do they use it.
The only way to stamp this out is for Pigbag to claim royalties. Precisely how this will be enforced by any surviving members of the early 80's one-hit-wonder punk/funk combo is currently uncertain.
