We’ve got a carpet, a Claret carpet, I just don’t think you understand!

|

West Ham supporters have reworked the Dimi Payet song in honour of the new Claret carpet at the London Stadium.

The song to the tune of Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus goes:

“We’ve got a carpet, a claret carpet, I just don’t think you understand

Delivered by a man

In a transit van

We’ve got Claret carpet!”

Other songs sung on Claret carpet day in the London Stadium on Saturday include:

“We love you carpet we do, we love you carpet we do, oh carpet we love you!”


“We have carpet, we have carpet, you ain’t!”
sung to bemused Leicester City away fans

“There’s only one Claret carpet, walking along singing a song, walking in a carpet wonderland!”

Michail Antonio got into the spirit of Claret carpet mania by stroking the 4G carpet after scoring his goal.

West Ham is now thought to have the largest Claret carpet in the world!
