My Name Is Ludo Miklosko
Legend · West Ham United terrace song
Cult classic for Czech goalkeeper Ludek Miklosko who played 1990-1998. Humorously claims he's from 'near Moscow' despite being from Prostejov, Czech Republic. Still sung by fans decades after he left. One of the most beloved West Ham chants.

My name is Ludo Miklosko, I come from near Moscow, I play in goal for West Ham, West Ham! When I walk down the street, All the people I meet say, Oi big boy, what's your name? My name is Ludo Miklosko... (Repeat)
