´óÏó´«Ã½

Regular readers (hello mum) might be aware I attempt a sporty re-working of a Christmas carol/song around this time of year.

In 2002 (blimey have I really been here that long?) it was , in 2003 , the following year Fergie/Wenger/Mourinho tribute , 2005 (A Good Hiding From Freddie And The Boys) 2006 Away In A Strange Land (ZZ sees red) and last year Walking In A Hatton Wonderland.

For 2008 I've decided to have a bash at an abridged version of Hallelujah. I send my deepest apologies in advance to Leonard Cohen, the late, great Jeff Buckley and that other girl who's taken to singing it of late - her name escapes me.

Please send in your efforts - I'm sure you can do better (let's face it, it can't be hard). In the meantime....

HALLELUJAH (SORT OF)

Oh Chris Hoy you are the man
You've done things that no other can
You won three golds, but surely that''ll do ya?
That'll do ya, that'll do ya, that'll do ya, that'll do-oo-oo ya.

Hey Rebecca Adlington
We're all so glad that you swum
To two golds and a pair of Jimmy Choo-sa
Jimmy Choo-sa, Jimmy Choo-sa, Jimmy Choo-sa, Jimmy Choo-oo-oo sa.

Lewis Hamilton you're ace
You might not have won every race
Still, nice to know Alonso is a loser
Is a loser, is a loser, is a loser, is a lo-oo-oo-ser.

Cristiano take a bow
The things you did made us go wow!
The ladies loved you 'cos you're such a schmoozer
Such a schmoozer, such a schmoozer, such a schmoozer, such a schmoo-oo-oo-zer.

So join me as we sing this song
A year when Brits could do no wrong
A very merry happy Christmas to ya
Christmas to ya, Christmas to ya, Christmas to ya, Christmas to-oo-oo ya.
