What's your favourite football chant?

What are your favourite football chants?

Some of mine:

When Rio Ferdinand was on the bench for months after fluffing his drugs test : His name is Rio and he watches from the stand

When Bury signed their new striker : Lennell John-Lewis his name is a shop

Celtic during Coronation week : You can shove your coronation up your arse, you can shove your coronation up your arse, you can shove your coronation, shove your coronation etc

One from my childhood : Georgie Best, superstar, walks like a woman and he wears a bra

Another older one with a long intro (to the tune of Oh Pretty Lady);
Do da, Do da, Do da da da, da

Do da, Do da, Do da da da, da
Do da, do da Ooooooh
We love you Freddie because you've got red hair

The wanky Tottenham Hotspur went to Rome to see the pope

We're the boys in red and white and we're fucking dynamite
And Postacoglu's mother is a whore

Abhannmor · 04/04/2024 15:21

Rangers fans v Celtic the year 2 Popes died -
Two Popes dead and the Queen lives on doo da doo da

And a non sectarian one from Partick Thistle -

Hello hello how do you do ?
We hate the boys in royal blue
We hate the boys in emerald green
So f the Pope and f the Queen.

A friend dragged me to a Birmingham City game and the Brummie fans spent the whole game singing -
Shit on the Villa shit on the the Villa tonight x 3
Everybody shit on the Villa tonight coz they're a load of shi -ay- ite!
I was thinking - lads this is Watford you're playing 😂

Millwall -
Chim chiminee chim chiminee chim chim cheroo

When we get promoted
this is what we'll sing
We are City, We are City
Robins is our King!

Still hoping

Mochudubh · 04/04/2024 15:45

Not a chant but can we have an honourable mention for the headline (unfortunately the Sun) after Inverness Caledonian Thistle beat Celtic away at Parkheid . Super Caley Go Ballistic, Celtic Are Atrocious.

Shearer is a wanker is our lads favourite. He's not allowed to swear, except at football.

And you lot always shout, Shee raah! whenever the Toon miss a penalty - after his infamous one 20 feet over the post.

pinkwaterbottle9 · 04/04/2024 16:04

@NorthernDancer

Let’s all sing together,
Play up Sky Blues!
Whilst we sing together,
We will never lose!
Tottenham or Chelsea, United or anyone,
They shan’t defeat us,
We’ll fight till the game is won.
City!

SinnerBoy · 04/04/2024 16:06

We hate Sunderland - repeated on a loop...

If I had wings of a sparrow,
The dirty great arse of a cow,
I’d fly over Sunderland tomorrow,
And shit on the bastards below, below.

Fuck off back to Pennywell - repeated on a loop...

Jingle bells, Liverpool smells,
Everton go away,
Arsenal yuck,
Sunderland sucks,
Magpies all the way!

pinkwaterbottle9 · 04/04/2024 16:06

From when we got deducted points

"Minus 10, who gives a fuck, we're Coventry City and we're going up!"

We did not go up but had just beaten Wolves at Wolves and sang it all the way back to the station over and over and over Smile

pinkwaterbottle9 · 04/04/2024 16:07

Fight, fight, wherever you may be
We are the boys from Coventry,
And we’ll fuck you up, wherever you may be
‘Cause we are the boys from Coventry”

Sang to tune of Lord of the dance

JoanThursday1972 · 04/04/2024 16:08

Hark now hear the Wednesday sing, united run away, and we will sing forever more because of Boxing Day.

After Andy Goram (Rangers player) was diagnosed with mild schizophrenia the fans chanted “Two Andy Gorams, there’s only two Andy Gorams”.

😄

Brighton had similar when their player Kerry Mayo (surely the only player to be named after two Irish counties? Anyway...) married a woman also called Kerry "there's only two Kerry Mayos".

Brighton get a lot of homophobic chants directed at them, e.g. "Does your boyfriend know you're here?" to which the response is "You're too ugly to be gay"

hangingonfordearlife1 · 04/04/2024 16:23

"If he's good enough for you, he's good enough for me.
"If he scores another few, then I'll be Muslim too.
"If he's good enough for you, he's good enough for me.
"Sitting in the mosque, that's where I wanna be!
"Mo Salah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la."

Before I post this .. can I just say that the most fun football match I have ever been to was about 5 years ago with Chelsea vs Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.. AND we travelled home on the tube with a gazillion Liverpool fans .. who beat Chelsea at home..

Football chants are always out there but this was something else..

In your Liverpool slums,
You look in the dustbin for something to eat,
You find a dead rat and you think it's a treat,
In your Liverpool slums,

In your Liverpool slums,
You s*t on the carpet, you p*s in the bath,
You finger your grandma, and think its a laugh,
In your Liverpool slums,

In your Liverpool slums,
You speak in an accent exceedingly rare,
You wear a pink tracksuit and have curly hair,
In your Liverpool slums,

In your Liverpool slums,
Your mum's on the game and your dad's in the nick,
You can't get a job 'cos you're too f*ing thick,
In your Liverpool slums...

Poverty chants might have been acceptable in the past (like violence and racism on the terraces) but it isn't acceptable any more.

One heard of was when Stoke were losing to Manchester United.

"What's it like to lose at Stoke? What's it like, what's it like, what's it like to lose at Stoke?"

And the United fans replying:

"You should know, you should know, you should know, you should know!"

(To Hear We Go! obviously)

My Stoke supporting United hating Stoke friend begrudgingly found that very funny.

But really, as pp said, you can't get better than "you're shit ahhhhhhhhhh"

Less than a mile from the centre of town
The famous old stadium crumbling down,
No-one invested so much as a penny,
Bring on the Deadpool and Rob McElhenney

You get your hot dog sausage in a burger bun, you get your hot dog sausage in a burger bun, you get your hot dog sausage in a burger bun, Sunderland's a massive club (sung to the tune of We've got the Whole World in our Hands)

Haha! 😅 That's so random that it's bordering on genius.

How could I have forgotten these two beauties?

To the tune of Bowie's Starman;

There's a Star Boy running down the right
His name's Bukayo Saka and he's fucking dynamite

And we need to get ESR back playing to reprise this one;

And I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it
I la la like it, la la like
Here we gooooooo
Saka and Emile Smith Rowe

Thank you. That feels as if it’s been the soundtrack in my house for a loooong time. As someone who f8nd the chants far more entertaining than the football, I kind of miss the Emanuel Petit days.

And there was that fun time in 2006 when we had to change the Vieira song to;

Lasagne woooah
Lasagne woooah
It had us all in fits
When Tottnum got the shits

Haha! 😅 That's so random that it's bordering on genius.

There are lots of other equally brilliant verses to this one, such as

“You get cheesy chips for a quid”
”You get a free season ticket with a happy meal”
“Adults for a fiver a kids go free”
“They’ve got 27,000 empty seats”
“You have to fly from Newcastle to get to Spain”

Newcastle fans have a sing song about Sunderland

Newcastle united fans have a sing song about rivals Sunderland in local bar.
