	BBC NEWS \| England \| London \| Football's first Chant Laureate
		Jonny Hurst, from Wanstead, north London, will be paid £10,000-a-year to tour Premiership stadiums and compose chants for the 2004-5 football season.
		Mr Hurst won the Barclaycard-run contest, which attracted about 1,500 entries, with a chant for his own club's arch-rivals, Aston Villa.
		Mr Hurst said he had written chants about every Premiership club and submitted the one he felt was the best.

	Jonny Hurst - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The judging panel was chaired by the Poet Laureate Andrew Motion, who said "What we felt we were tapping into was a huge reservoir of folk poetry."
		Ironically, Hurst, a Birmingham City fan, composed the winning entry about Birmingham's local rivals Aston Villa.
		The chant, sung to the tune of Barry Manilow's Copacobana, refers to the club's star player, Juan Pablo Ángel.

	Books \| Bard of the Boots keeps singing the Blues
		Jonny Hurst, a faithful and most eloquent supporter of the Blues, had just been chosen as Bard of the Boots, or soccer's first £10,000 chants laureate, as the post is officially called.
		Hurst has travelled nearly as far in support of his players as Coleridge's Ancient Mariner or Homer's Odysseus.
		Hurst beat 1,500 entrants for the post, more than 100 times as many as applied for Motion's job last time it fell vacant.

		Hurst is the nation's first chant laureate, charged, he said, with "chronicling developments in the football season." (That's soccer, to Americans.) He makes twice as much money as the poet laureate, £10,000 ($19,200) for a year's work, but their responsibilities are vaguely similar.
		Hurst is in that tradition but apart from it, too, because his poems are meant not to be recited, but chanted.
		Hurst says there is room for well-considered chants from outsiders as much as for spontaneous chants from partisans, and that soccer is as full of elation as gloom.

		I had read about his great victory, but it wasn't until last week, on the World Service in the middle of the night, that I actually heard the winning entry sung, in all its off-key glory and flexible rhyming opportunities.
		I refer to solicitor Jonny Hurst's first prize in the national competition to compose the best football chant.
		The judge was no less than the poet laureate Andrew Motion, and Hurst beat some 1,500 competitors to trouser the £10,000 award and assume the duty of travelling round premiership club grounds for six months composing suitable chants.

	IDEASFACTORY West Midlands - Music & Sound Feature
		According to Jonny's interpretation, Barclaycard - who were League sponsors at the time, and ran the nationwide competition - wanted to return the 'beautiful game' to its supporters, to answer criticism that it's been plucked from the terraces and into the pockets of giant corporate machines.
		The main goal of the post is to provide a record of the highs and lows of the Premiership season, much as the Poet Laureate - who actually chaired the judging committee that selected Jonny - must immortalise major national events in poetry.
		But Jonny insists that the two roles can't be judged on the same terms.

	Sport \| 1966? You must be joking
		Michael, the barman, explained that the coffee machine had been put in because they were opening at breakfast the following morning for England v Australia and not everybody coming to watch the rugby might want to start the day with a pint of Exhibition.
		When it was all over and Jonny had scored with his drop-kick and Martin Johnson ("Johnno") had raised the cup, the trickle of fans headed towards the football had swelled into a river and there were still no flag of Saint George-draped berserkos chanting "Wilko-Wilko-Wilko" and swinging from the trees.
		But something tells me that, watching that guy with the big neck and the big knot in his tie hosting Six Nations Grandstand in 2025, we'll be racking our brains to remember exactly what he did again on Saturday November 22 2003.

		This week a 37-year-old 'self-employed solicitor' called Jonny Hurst was crowned chant laureate.
		There were 1500 entries to the competition - according to poet laureate Andrew Motion who chaired the judging panel, these ranged 'from the brisk and simple, through the comic and curious, to the elaborate and heartfelt'.
		But the most bizarre thing is that Jonny Hurst is a Birmingham City supporter.

		In a breath taking display of hypocrisy, the English are demanding Australia return the Gilbert rugby ball which Jonny Wilkinson slotted over the crossbar in his cup-clinching drop goal.
		The magazine tracked Haller to his sports shop in Augsburg and the ball was found at the home of his son, Jurgen.

		To paraphrase a football chant, sung to the tune of Tammy Wynette's 'Stand By Your Man' and penned by Jonny Hurst, the first-ever Barclays' Chant Laureate (yes, there is such a thing), 'sometimes it's hard to be a football fan, giving all your money to just one team'.
		Because it's not just the match tickets, programmes, replica strips (both home and away, if you're truly devoted), scarves and other club merchandise that you have to buy if you want to call yourself a real fan.

		To protect my investment I installed a Clifford alarm system with power locks, remote keyless entry, and a 2-way paging system.
