First person I ever saw do this was a CFC MATE of mine that worked for the Postie... would shout out my name hanging out of his postie van whilst shouting out `FUCKING HAMMER' whilst doing the crossed arms.... would have been 25 years ago

Without a doubt, which is why it's lost the spontaneity that it used to have.

Certainly wasn't as prevalent back then. Seems to have been egged on in recent times.

Tevez very famously did it when he came back with Man Utd which was well before G&S. They've just milked it to death.

I invented the crossed hammers gesture more than 30 years ago, but no one gives me any credit for it.
I agree it's a bit shit now, especially seeing adults do it.

How we could do with Craig Bellamy now. Didn't stay for long and we doubled our money.

Chris Powell is the first I remember, but I'm certain others on here remember players from further back.

I'm not a fan of this crossed hammers thing, a modern phenomenon of the G&S era, and getting new signings to do it seems cringeworthy. But I'll make an exception with Anton. Well done son.

I notice that Millwall are disguising themselves as Sheffield Wednesday of late.
I can understand why they would pretend to be someone else if they got fed up with no-one liking them, but WTF have Wednesday done to deserve this?
