History has taught us two things.
1. Do not invade Russia in winter.
2. Trying to get a song for a player actually onto the terraces is more fun than the above but as about as easy.
So what then of the boy VdV? Early indications are that we have a ‘bit of a player’ on our hands here and he really needs a song or a call at least in recognition of his pretty bloody wonderfulness so far, not to mention his pretty bloody wonderfulnesses that are surely yet to come.
Given the nature of his surname the Fat Les – Vindaloo fits like a glove…

Were going to score one more than you – – Tottenham!
A chap by the name of Jon Fisher cooked up this little ditty that appeared on 606; to the tune of the old Addams Family theme…
He’s just as good as Hoddle,
He’s better than Chris Waddle,
His Mrs is a model,
He’s Rafael Van Der Vaart!
Right, over to you…
He’s a yid he’s Dutch he didn’t cost us much van der vaart van der vaart
“Rafael, Van der Vaart….” to the tune of “Jesus Christ, Superstar..”
Just need the rest now. But it’s early on a Sunday morning and me head isn’t working quite properly yet. I’ll think about it, but feel free to complete it as you wish!
“… joined from Madrid, now he’s stolen my heart” ?
This Jesus Christ Superstar bit is brilliant. How about?:
“Rafael_ Van der Vaart_tatooed upon our Tottenham hearts!”
I appear to be walking down Quality St.
We just just sing the tune to Van Der Valk. Its a brilliant tune, cultured and wil confuse the hell out of younger fans of other clubs. We should sing it every time he scores – or even get the stadium announcer to pay a bit of it when that bhappns, then let the crowd take over. Its so obvious I cant believe it hasnt happened already. For those who dont know it, its here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0O-2oAvNTo
