The Wealdstone Raider topping the Christmas charts is a GENUINE possibility.

The Mirror today launched a campaign to have the man of "Dyu wantsum?" fame beat the X Factor winner to number one spot. A music video based on the famous clip in which the little gem known as The Wealdstone Raider is adamant that his club "has no fans and no ground" is being backed to take the honour this year. A Facebook campaign has also been launched to push Gordon Hill (disappointing real name) over the line. X Factor's Sam Bailey reached the summit last year after 149,000 copies of her cover of Demi Lovato's Skyscraper were sold. Over 4 million people have viewed the original clip of The Wealdstone Raider thus far so if a measly 4% of them buy the "No Ground, No Fans" single then the dream could become reality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_41KgOe-Uw
