A Horse With No Name Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 So if I read it right, some bird wants to come to her first ever City game, and before she even sets foot in the turnstiles, she is telling us what we can and cant sing.

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 She could be a serial moaner I guess? Dunno their supporting history. I'm sure people won't take a bit of notice. Song never registered to me as sexist or disgraceful etc. I've never read of complaints about it before. Fair enough, political activist but I can't see that this chant is one that should be given a no to. Can the mods remove the pic and link however?

Kaseys own son sings it all the time (He posted some nice videos of his lad who’s only 4 ish ? (Cute lad) in full City kit playing football with some young supporters , and singing the KP song Luckily , as many his age he appears to only have learnt ‘Oh Kasey Palmer you are .... Before it becomes a toddler mumble i picture the day he learns the rest and loudly makes his first rendition at a family wedding Awkward Love the song , but & Showing my age ( and thinking how hypocritical I am , after our chants in 70s 80s ) but , as it’s such a loud and popular chant , and can keep going , I do wonder how awkward it must be for some of our female supporters or some men there with their wives besides all the difficulties when the kids want to sing it Im not sure even a simple change of one word only couldn’t make it a whole lot more comfortable for many without taking anything from the song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dastardly and Muttley Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Given the rest of her twitter posts, I’d say there’s always going to be an issue. No harm in political activism and she’s obviously passionate about misogyny and LGBTQ rights and so on, good for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exAtyeoMax Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Well, to be honest the Kasey Palmer chant does suggest that women (wives) are owned/controlled by their husbands. Or, that he should have the power to offer her services to other men (against her will) ? Why on earth would a woman need permission to sleep with someone else than their husband, anyway?

Phileas Fogg Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Don't know her, but from her tweets she looks like a huge SJW who seems to find reason to complain about many things. Many chants at football are near to the knuckle if you really dig deep, lots have themes about violence which are arguably far more problematic than the Palmer one. These types of people are best ignored, but they'll always find a reason to complain about something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsince1994 Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Maybe we need an addendum. Ohh Kasey Palmer I'd let you shag my wife. But it's her decision I don't control her life Oh Kasey Palmer Nothing's sexier than conseeeent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse With No Name Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 I remember vividly when my dear dad used to take me to games about 1970, as a kid, there was a song that went " over there, over there, and do they smell, like f**** g hell, " and he used to cough very loudly at the point of the swear word.

Cold light of day perhaps, but these chants aren't exactly to be taken seriously or literally. Fair enough she seems to be an activist but it just feels unnecessary here.

Fiale Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 If you look at her twitter page most of her posts are like that targeting a company, organisation or championing a issue. Whatever you do at AG you would never appease her, the goal post would just keep changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiale Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 maybe we could change it to "my significant partner" although some are single so maybe - "my significant partner (unless I am single in which case sorry, but hey ho good job man)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
