AI has decided which club has the best chant in the Championship
There are many elements which help make the Championship one of the most dramatic and eventful leagues in world football.
One of those is the noise and raw passion generated by supporters across many stadiums throughout the second tier of English football, which some would argue has been lost across the Premier League in the modern era.
Not only are atmospheres a hot topic of discussion, but the originality and quirkiness of specific chants have seen several fanbases within the Championship go viral throughout social media.
Some are for their historical nature as a chant has been continued throughout generations of supporters, whilst others have been ridiculed to the nth degree.
With that being said, Football League World has put AI-based chatbot, ChatGPT, to the test to see if it can definitively rank the main song heard from each and every Championship fanbase in an order of worst to best.

Unfortunately for Oxford United's loyal supporters, this is yet another AI-ranked list which the club hasn't performed well in.
According to the computer, the main chant heard at the Kassam Stadium is 'Yellow Army', referencing their kit colour.
However, this has been criticised due to a distinct lack of originality, with many other fanbases adopting a version of this chant to suit their club's colours.

Although Hull City have, like other clubs, adopted Elvis Presley's 'Can't Help Falling In Love' number as a pre-match anthem, AI believes the main chant at the MKM Stadium is 'We're Hull City'.
Whilst Tigers fans chant this in a bid to make their presence felt with the opening words of "everywhere we go, everyone will know...", the computer believes it isn't one which would get the crowd going for a full 90 minutes.

Up next is Preston North End's simple chant of 'PNE! PNE! PNE!'
Again, this is an extremely recognisable tune adopted by almost each and every professional club in the English game, with AI believing that there is no uniqueness whatsoever attached to the chant.

Blackburn Rovers supporters haven't had much to cheer about in recent seasons, meaning it may not be the greatest of surprises to see them so far down on this list.
AI has selected the classic 'We Love You Rovers' chant as the main which is heard at Ewood Park, effectively describing it as solid, but far from spectacular.
Again, this is another chant which can be easily interchanged by a cluster of clubs.

In 20th place are the Queens Park Rangers crowd for their 'We Are the Rangers Boys' chant.
Although this may not be as noticeable on the terraces in recent years, it is one which encourages supporters to get behind their team with an even louder volume.
However, AI believes it has very little impact, despite the lyrics.

Next up is Watford's 'Z Cars', which has become the pre-match walkout tune at Vicarage Road.
The Hornets have walked out to the classic tune since October 1963, but AI, again, has discredited the club for a lack of originality.
That is because the tune is also heavily associated with Everton, who have continued to walk out to Z Cars at their new home, the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Perhaps a majorly controversial pick is Birmingham City's famous anthem, Keep Right on, in 18th place.
Bluenoses have been singing this historic chant since the 1955/56 season, after it was first sang by Scottish winger, Alex Govan, ahead of their 3-1 success over Arsenal in the FA Cup quarter-final.
Although Blues fans would argue that a slower version of 'KRO' is better, as heard before kick-off at St. Andrew's, AI doesn't see it that way, believing it is detrimental to the atmosphere.

Next up is Bristol City's 'Drink Up Thee Cider' anthem.
With the Robins based in the West Country, infamous for cider, it is no surprise locals have looked to mix two of their biggest loves into one chant.
Although it isn't sang to intimidate opposition players or supporters, AI has praised it for the niche element.

Although Derby County's pre-match anthem of 'Steve Bloomer's Watching' is certainly iconic, AI believes 'When The Rams Go Marching In' is a more prominent chant on the Pride Park terraces.
Much like some of the aforementioned selections, this is a chant which several clubs across the country have adopted, regardless of how catchy it may be.

Millwall's 'Let 'Em Come' anthem was penned by Roy Green back in 1985, and is now the pre-match walkout tune at The Den.
Given the hostile stereotypes which surround the Lions fanbase, AI believes it is one which perfectly suits their identity, and it is one which could be heard in the Premier League next season.
