Admin Ian M Posted March 4, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 I've spent this week on the gastroenteritis diet, any vids around of this chant so I can judge for myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 I like songs that you can identify a club with,,west hams blowing bubbles and portsmouth inane tune the pompey chime. I like the z cars theme that gets played at everton,,i prefer the tradition of a song related to a club over anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could we not have come up something better than that? The only less original dirge is Bristol Rugby’s “Briiiiiiissssssttttol” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me an old git, but when younger I've sung and chanted with the best of them, but even without rose tinted glasses, it was always classy, worthwhile and often funny...now imo, and many others, it's just boring, inane, with lack of thought or humour, and often copied. Pretty much like everything else in todays society...nothing new or copied. What's made my day however...is that I got snaked by a Rodian bounty hunter working for Jabba the Hutt...at least I know what I'm dealing with wtf! kids Good post. Interesting perspective from the (no offence) older generation. I'd class myself as the 'middle' generation; watched the 90's culture almost rinse and repeat over the last 20 years. However, what's important to understand is that today social media drives culture in a way it never did when we were younger (because it didn't exist ). Given that, I wonder how many of us would have also 'copied' what we saw. Or, even realised we were copying what we'd heard on matchday anyway. Very little in society is new, no matter what generation we're in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very little in society is new, no matter what generation we're in. Plenty of evidence given nowadays, showing that the 'younger' generation have less imagination in general, to many of the older generation...btw, I'm middle aged ;-) Everything is given to us nowadays...answered for you at a touch of a button. You don't have to think or work things out any more. Creating and imagination are in many cases a long lost art for what was normal for the majority of previous generations. In the past you often had to work things out yourself or create ways yourself...invention if you like. Much of that is helped by technology these days and added to each year. Creativity is becoming less and less. New forms of old, more common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Reid's Mate Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 I'm in S82 and when it first got tried, I thought this is awful. But it grew on me and the volume of it increases significantly when City have a chance or win a corner. Can really boost the players when they hear the crowd getting up for it. Now I like it. Drummer nails it with this chant, as per. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 It sounds great with everyone singing it. Sadly the vast majority of the people in that area stand arms crossed so it is normally only about 100 people keeping it going. That makes anything sound lousy.

citybs3 Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 So do songs like red army, flint having a party 'drag on'? The point is supposed to be raising the atmosphere to spur the team on to victory. Pretty much any noise is better than nothing imo. **** soulless modern football...

Sounded good and not heard of by any other clubs so well done S 82 keep it going as many others were sat silent . Why would any other club be singing in support of Bristol City?

RedM Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 I think it’s a good ‘filler’ song, easily started, and can stop in an instant if needed. I like it, it was more effective with the megaphone though, more people laughing and joining in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
