Football: "Chant of the Year"?

[Jabba]

Just seen this on the BBC Website.........

much as it pains me to say it, Man City fans must surely win the "Chant of the Year" contest with the following effort. Pure genius :D

To the tune of The Proclaimers 500 Miles:

"Oh you can freeze 500 million, and you can freeze 500 more,
Cos Thaksin's got another billion underneath his bedroom floor,
SHIN-A-WATRA SHIN-A-WATRA!"

[hovis]

we're cardiff, we're barmby, we're off our ****in heads........... lets go ****in mentle,lets go ****in mentle, la la la la

or my persanal favorate (back when roger freestone was in goal for swansea)............

"freestones wifes a ****in lesbian,freestones wifes a ****in lesbian,"

[keithd]

highbrow humour from the knuckleheads in wales i see....

[pencil shavings]

have to put one in for my boys from the red side of north london

"He's big, he's Kraut, he'll f*cking knock you out - Jens Lehmaaaaaan Jens Lehmaaaaaaan"

[keithd]

again, not exactly intelligent humour that one...city boys are winning so far imho

[Pedro68]

"Cilla wants her teeth back"
(chanted by Liverpool fans to Ronaldinho during last seasons Barcelona match)

This apparently won a BBC poll :D
As a Liverpool fan I personally don't think it's the best ... but probably the funniest :D

Pete

[Viper]

Osama ooohhh,
Osama ooohhh
He comes from the Taliban,
He is an Arsenal fan."

A personal fave of mine, sung at The Lane

[rpwoodman]

Rangers (I think) had a golaie called Andy Goran, who was diagnosed as having mild schizophrenia. The fans started singing "There's only two Andy Gorans".

I've not heard a better one since!

[husky03]

Sorry rp but have to correct you -the great mans name is Andy Goram-aka"The Goalie".
blue is the colour

Ahh, no worries Husky - I can't profess to knowing anything about football! And getting his name wrong doesn't really detract from the story much imo :-)

[husky03]

I know where your coming from mate but he's one of the nine in a row hero's so need to ensure there never forgotten=:)-unless your a bluenose you won't understand it;)

husky

oh the bluebells are blue!

I saw that too, but I don't understand the story. Can someone explain?

[Jabba]

This (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_city/6922650.stm) should do it for you :D

[ASM-Forever]

Haha...Andy Goram.

No matter how decent he may have been, i can only remember him for when he came out of retirement and played for Man Utd. I know they were desperate for a GK, but jeez an overweight, alcoholic glaswegian :D

[Jools'SV Now]

RE Sun Ji Park Man Utd

Park, Park, whoever you may be,
You eat dogs in your country
But it could be worse,
you could be scouse,
eating rats in your council house.
:p

[husky03]

Haha...Andy Goram.

Bang out of order-Andy is not a Glaswegian!!!!!!!!!;)

[Jabba]

As Arsenal come out at Leicester.........
'Who let the frogs out, who? who? who? who?'.

And.....

Id rather have a speedboat than Kanu,
Id rather have a speedboat than Kanu
Yes Id rather have a speedboat,
Rather have a speedboat,
Rather have a speedboat than Kanu.

Indeed, another quality chant from the City faithful, not as good as 'Feed the Goat, Feed the Goat, Feed the Goat and he will score' though =D>

[colinsv25]

feed the horse feed the horse feed the horse and he will score, the good old days wen geoff horsefield was at west brom=D>

[Gordon B]

Chris Robinson, who many believe was responsible for Hearts downfall, was big in catering.

This earned him the nickname 'Pieman'

Hearts fans could be heard chanting the following...

"Pieman, Pieman get tae f**k"

Absolute genius :D

[Pedro68]

He's fat,
He's round,
He bounces on the ground,
Saaaammy Leeeee, Saaaammy Leeeeee

[Bluewolf]

I remember when Avi Cohen played briefly for Rangers. He was welcomed onto the pitch with a rousing rendition of "Shalom, Shalom, we are the Billy Boys..."

I also remember hearing "You're only happy when you're whaling..." being sung during the Scotland-Norway world cup games and a similar "You can stick your streaky bacon up your @rse..." ditty to the squad from Denmark. :lol:

[Dante]

This years favourite has to be hearing the Sunderland fans on TV singing:

"Whats that coming over the hill?
It's Michael Chopra.....It's Michael CHOPRA!!!"

etc.

[Cloggsy]

What about the Geordie classics...

"Peter Reid's got a F***in Monkey's heed, a f***in Monkey's heed, a f***in Monkey's heed..."

"The famous Man. United went to Rome to see the Pope,
The famous Man. United went to Rome to see the Pope,
The famous Man. United went to Rome to see the Pope,
and this is what he said,
"F*** OFF",
Who the f*** are Man. United,
Who the f*** are Man. United,
Who the f*** are Man. United,
as the mags go marching on on on."

[Cloggsy]

"You can stick your streaky bacon up your @rse..." ditty to the squad from Denmark. :lol:

Brilliant :smt081 :smt081 :smt081

[rob13]

Laurent, Laurent Robert, everybody knows his name.......possibly the worst chant -(cant remember where that originally came from)

[northwind]

Chris Robinson, who many believe was responsible for Hearts downfall

It's a long list of suspects isn't it :)

Hearts have the best football song ever though. It's not a chant, but I give you The Hearts Europe Song: (to the tune of My Way)

And now, the end is near
We've followed Hearts, from Perth to Paisley
We've travelled far, by bus and car
And other times, we've went by railway
We've even been, to Aberdeen
We hate the Hibs, they make us spew up
So make a noise you Gorgie Boys
We're going to Europe

To go and see, HMFC
We'll even dig, the Channel Tunnel
When we're afloat, on some big boat
We'll tie our scarves, around the funnel
We have no cares, for other players
Like Rossi, Boniek or Tardelli
When we're overseas, the Hibs will be
In Portobelly

[plowsie]

He's fat,
He's round,
He bounces on the ground,
Plooooooowsieeeeee
Corrected

Personal fave of mine at the cobblers:

Are you rushden in discuise, are you rushden in discuise na na na nah!

One for the Liverpudlians:

E's big e's red, is feet ang out the beddddd Peter crouch, peter crouch.

[northwind]

Are you rushden in discuise, are you rushden in discuise na na na nah!


Heh, in the France/Scotland game (which incidentally, we won, did I mention that?) the Scotland fans were chanting "Are you Scotland in disguise" :cool:

[philipMac]

"Bat it to Beckham!" (David Beckham's LA Galaxy debut.)


Edit.. oh yeah...

You've got Di Canio,
We've got your stereos...
(bitta scouse class like.)

[MiniMatt]

Back in the very olden days, Kenneth Clarke MP, who was at the time the Chancellor (and MP of Rushcliffe, part of Nottingham) opened the new Trent End at the Nottingham Forest City Ground. Now, he's a bit of a portly gent, so imagine him walking out onto the pitch, surrounded by 25-30,000 odd fans all chanting:

"Ooooh Kenny Kenny Kenny
You fat ba$t&rd, you fat ba$t&rd"

...over and over and over again :D

[Bluewolf]

Brilliant :smt081 :smt081 :smt081

I think the language barrier played an important role in keeping international links open and friendly during that game... ;) :lol:
