    .. ........STOP PRESS!! iTUNES RELEASE DATE MONDAY 31ST MAY 2010........ ......The Laddz Present Unofficial World Cup 2010 England Song: .. ...."Chant Like An English Fan!".... .... ........ ............ ...... ...... ........ ....London.. -- With the latest round of football madness almost upon us, and the FA announcing that they're not going to release an official World Cup 2010 England song, it's time to trade out pre and post election bullshit for football mania. And what better way to focus on what’s really important to our nation – like winning the World Cup – than “The Unofficial, People’s Song for the England Squad”. ....“Chant Like an English Fan”.. by ..The Laddz.. is an ‘almost made it’ from the last World Cup in 2006, and is pitching its wares against a torrent of over 100 homemade contenders, all vying for the title of .."England's Best Unofficial World Cup 2010 Song"... ..Co-writer, ..Anthony Donnelly.. said, .."A lot has happened in four years. Back in 2006 we really didn't have a clue what we were doing, and were really surprised by the results we got.".. ..For a brand new, unknown band, they had an astonishing amount of media attention in the form of national press, national TV, online media and national and regional radio. ..“Chant Like An English Fan!”.. also came within a free kick of getting signed to a major record label which astounded them all. ...."Just like football, the music business is a funny old game,".. states ..Richard Eyre.., the other half of the writing duo. .."It was only after the World Cup was over that we really started to get some praise for what we managed to achieve.".. ..This year, with four more years of experience under their belt, even though ..The Laddz.. now live at opposite ends of the world (..Richard.. in Thailand, ..Ant.. in the US and only Producer ....Stephe Meloy.... in the UK) they are way ahead of the curve and hoping that the same web-based marketing techniques that ..President Barack Obama.. used to storm the White House will work for ..“Chant Like An English Fan!..” ...."We're pulling out all the stops this year,".. said ..Donnelly... .."We're using everything we can to improve our chances of success.".. ..They certainly are, and it appears to be working. Traffic to their ....Myspace Site.... (www.myspace.com/theladdz) is already up 30%, their traffic on ....Twitter.... (@theladdz) is climbing, and their blog .. ..www.chantlikeanenglishfan.wordpress.com.... already has an avid following. ..With so much activity, and the England squad focussing on football, will we see a repeat of 1966 - the last time there wasn't an official song? That result is anybody's guess. .. ..The Laddz.. still hold strong to both ..that.. dream and that ..“Chant”.. has Number One written all over it. And who can blame them? It is (after all!) a funny old game! .. .. ........STOP PRESS!!...... ..The Laddz are currently looking to hear from people around the world interested in helping to promote the song. Please contact us on ....info@theladdz.com.... .. ..
