VIDEO: West Brom fans deserve a round of applause for the greatest chant of the season

The words "entertainment value" and "West Brom" don't tend to go hand-in-hand together all that often.
Tony Pulis has worked his Tony Pulis magic on the Baggies and, for the most part, they get by with disciplined defensive work and well-drilled set pieces. They've been trademarks of Pulis' game for years and neither exactly lend themselves to champagne football. The defensive frustration of opposition attackers so often at play at the Hawthorns wasn't exactly on show on Saturday when West Brom were beaten 4-0 by Manchester City. Unable to even find solace in their typically efficient gameplan, Baggies supporters had to make their own fun this weekend. As they struggled to cope with City's possession-heavy game, the fans in the stands broke out a chant for the ages."We've got the ball," they'd happily yell during the 32 percent of the game in which they found themselves in possession. When they inevitably were dispossessed, "We've lost the ball," would promptly follow. It's simple, it's straightforward and it gave us plenty of chuckles.
