SAINTS' crunch Championship clash with Burnley today will be kicked off with 20,000-odd fans blasting out a revised version of a favourite jive number!

The winner of the "Sing a song for Saints" competition was announced yesterday with Ellen and Megan Barrett-Stride's play on the popular Mambo Number 5 coming out on top.

Originally recorded and composed by Pérez Prado in 1952, the song's popularity was renewed by Lou Bega in 1999 - but now Saints fans have their own version (below) to sing to the players before tomorrow's game at St Mary's.

That's because the prize of the Radio Hampshire competiton, in conjunction with sponsors Breeze Volkswagen in Shirley and backed by both Saints and the Daily Echo, was two hospitality tickets for the game, photos taken on the pitch beforehand - and the chance to sing the song to the terraces, who will be encouraged to join in.

To get in some practice ahead of the game, the Daily Echo is today publishing Ellen and Megan's lyrics in full - and they will be put up again on the big screen at St Mary's in the pre-match build-up.

Radio Hampshire have been running the competition all week in a bid for fans to become Saints' 12th man today, when three points would take them to the point of safety.

But, as Saints boss Nigel Pearson has been pointing out to his players this week, any dip in form could prove costly with tough games to come at league leaders West Brom and Sheffield United at home.

The winning song was announced by club captain Claus Lundekvam yesterday morning on the radio station's breakfast show.

A little bit of Wrighty in the goal, A little bit of Safri in control, A little bit of Davies in defence, A little bit of Surman; he's immense, A little bit of Dyer down the side, A little bit of Licka with passion and pride, A little bit of singing from us fans, A little bit of Pearson; he's our man!

Come on you Reds!
