You know… one drunk bloke in the away end concourse, one guy on the train or in the pub… a chant you really wish would catch on but is just one random fan with an absolute belter.
For me a top contender is someone serenading Jonathan Parr with their own version of the intro to Annie Lennox’s ‘No more I love yous’
“Du bu duuu bu du du du…. Parrrrr”
In more recent years, a top effort was:
My neck, my back Tuanzebe and Delap.

There's a bloke behind me in the upper south stand who occasionally starts his own chants that never extend to being more than a one man chant.
I can't remember too many this past season but he did try and get "Rishi Sunak's red and white army" going during the Southampton game. He wasn't successful.
There was something about Crystal Tipps from Crystal Tipps and Alistair aimed at Marc Cuccurella but I can't recall the details. Again, no luck in getting anyone else to join in.
He can be quite witty to be fair, but it's all fairly niche.

Not One Man chants exactly, but they were when I created them…
“One f***ing Chambers” after the Charlton away game where he dropped the F bomb and “Andy D’Urso, he sees what he wants” after he awarded a dubious penalty in the WBA League Cup quarter final. I started both of those and they grew on their own.
Both of those (Annie Lennox + My Neck, My Back) - are the work of the same man. He’s also responsible for “Dara, are you O’Shea?”, “I’m feeling supersonic, give me Sammie Szmodics” and others. Creative fella.
I have a vivid memory the Annie Lennox / Parr one in the minutes preceding Noel Hunt’s winner at Charlton.
No, not at the moment

Might be be the same guy who often used to shout:
“Everywhere you go, always take the Berra with you….”

Andy Goram, Glasgow Rangers' greatest-ever goalkeeper, was greeted with the chant of "Two Andy Gorams, there's only two Andy Gorams" by his own fans after it was reported in the press that he had a mild form of schizophrenia

I got a few strange looks during the West Ham game when I started chanting: "One Nigel Havers, there's only one Nigel Havers, One Nigel Havers - Give us an N, I", etc...............

I remember chuckling to myself and feeling very clever when Bolton sang 'there's only one Dean Holdsworth' back in the day, when he had a twin brother, also a footballer. I mean there was only one Dean Holdsworth technically, but I felt very clever pointing out he had a twin. Pompous times.

Repartee rather than a chant. I cannot remember the team or the player, but it was back in the seventies. An opposing defender with a particularly prominent nose tried to head the ball and it hit him on said proboscis. One guy near me shouted out 'You should get a boot for your nose'; immediately another old guy in the crowd responded 'They don't make 'em that big!'.

Liverpool's Phil Thompson maybe?
