VIDEO: Southampton fans’ new “Mars bar on her head” chant is as stupid as it is hilarious

Easily entertained

It doesn’t take an awful lot to get a sing-song going among Saints fans, it seems.

During Southampton’s 6-0 victory over MK Dons in the Capital One Cup on Wednesday night, football took a back seat as the away supporters endeavoured to come up with a new chant.

One innovative fan had a stroke of genius as he proudly clutched the Mars bar he was saving for half-time.

He jumped to the Stadium MK steps, placed his chocolate treat on the head of a female steward and, as though it had been rehearsed for months, the Saints supporters erupted into a chorus of “She’s got a Mars bar on her head!”

Obviously, not having the stay-on ability of the original “He’s got a plant pot on his head” which Barnsley fans came up with earlier in the season, the bar fell to the ground before Mr Life-of-the-party retrieved it and popped it on the noggin of a young fan.

 

What we love most about it is the smug walk away of the chant-starter as he disappeared into the upper tiers of Stadium MK with the superhero air of “my work here is done.”
