MAKE BB BARNESY A WORLD CUP WINNER

FANS WANT NEW JOHN RAP

- By ANDREW JAMESON

THREE Lions fans want John Barnes’ famous football rap brought back as England’s 2018 World Cup song.

The ex-England star belted out New Order’s 1990 hit World In Motion – on which Barnes guest rapped – in the Big Brother house.

Now supporters want the track re-released for this summer’s tournament in Russia.

A petition on change.org says: “England need all the help they can get in the run up to Russia and this song would give the squad a reason to believe that this really could be the year. “OK, maybe not. “But it’s a mint tune and the return of John Barnes at the mic would never be a bad thing.’’ John, 54, told the Daily Star: “I’ve never forgotten the words. It’s not that hard, there are only 20 words in it anyway.” ¬ Watch John rapping the tune in Celebrity Big Brother at dailystar.co.uk andrew.jameson@ dailystar.co.uk
