TrentVilla Posted July 6, 2016 Moderator Share Posted July 6, 2016 If people are trying to come up with a song for this chap then there can be only one serious contender.... Informer by Snow with informer eplaced by Tshibola. It's been in my head since the link emerged, someone more creative than me can sort the rest of the lyrics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 The thought of hearing a football crowd trying to sing the verses to Informer with whatever lyrics you choose fills me with joy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Reacho Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Does Tshibola have a silent T? Or is it pronounced Chibola? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El-Reacho Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 If it's pronounced like that then I think he's spelling his own name incorrectly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaglint Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 The most utterly incomprehensible song of all time. I once met a bloke on a night out who could sing the whole song word for word. Or so he claimed nobody had any way to verify it but it sounded good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) What about My Sharona. Obviously replace it with "Aaron Tshibola". Someone else more creative can come up with the rest my Tshibola Edited July 6, 2016 by KSV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks wrong but in this piece the reporters (from Reading) pronounce it Tish-bo-la, and also refer to him as 'Tish'. That's going to bother me. Like Nathan Delfouneso. How was that Del-fon-so?

BOF Posted July 6, 2016 Moderator Share Posted July 6, 2016 If it is Tishbola then he's going in the 'Things that piss me off ..." thread. Every. Week. It has to be Shibola. SSHHHHUURELY ! Oh and sign already ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbop Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 I'm backing the The Kinks - Lola, tune. Slightly amended lyrics to those suggested by Gary Thomas as I think it would fit a chanting crowd easier - '6 foot 3 and a beast of a guy; flying into tackles send you up to the sky, TISH-BOW-LA! La la la la - la - TISH-BOW-LA' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's of African origin (which it looks like it is) then I'm pretty sure it would be pronounced tShibola with a soft t at the beginning… The "Tish-bola" pronunciation probably comes from English people being unable to pronounce it the right way. Whether he himself pronounces it the original way is another thing.
