"Niall Quinn's Disco Pants are the best, They stretch from his arse to his chest, They are better than Adam and the Ants', Niall Quinn's Disco Pants".

- Sunderland supporters, to the tune of Here We Go. (It's a long story, this one, but according to Quinn himself the tune dates back to a 1992 preseason tour of Italy with Manchester City, when he did a spot of disco dancing, in his underpants, on top of a table in a restaurant. City fans composed the tune, to commemorate the occasion, and now their Sunderland friends have picked it up).
