Lovely touch from Brighton doing a Chas tribute at half time for the spurs fans there and playing one of his songs. Classy

RIP Chas. A sad day. The music will live on. In the 70s Chas and Dave were respected session musicians. They played on a funk track that became an instant classic. That song was later sampled by Eminem (My name is). Not sure if many football fans appreciate this?

No worries. They must have made some hard cash in royalties! Apparently Jay Z sampled the track as well. Below is a link to an article about it. There was a full length BBC documentary about there career a few years back. Well worth a watch They are much respected as folk, blues and rnb session players. R.I.P.
