There was some great banter with goalies, I recall Bobby mimms putting his goalkeepers bag in the net Bobby mimms has got a handbag was belted out

Yep. There was a big blonde chap in the East End late 80’s early 90’s who used to shout at the opposition goalies “drop yer drawers and show us yer bum”. 
🤣

And you sir certainly know about the BERRRRRRISTOL bellow. 
You were probably the loudest ever! 
 

Ha ha, as for the “who’s your barber boy” I’m pretty sure I introduced this after seeing something similar on the Mary Whitehouse Experience. 
I used to begin it with a shout that again wouldn’t be allowed nowadays :

”Nice hair ya homo!!  Who’s your barber boy”. 
🤣

And I am also pretty certain that it was you and I who introduced the “Garden Shed” song away at Wigan. 
 

@TV Tom - Banbury Red will be able to back me up on a number of those chants which you “weren’t having” last night 🤣

You two are probably in cahoots, I’m having none of your gibberish Harry 😁

That one when the gash were non-league is probably the most creative of all time...

We are Bristol City, the only team in town,

There used to be the rovers, but now they have gone down,

They only needed one goal, they couldn't manage that,

And now they're in the conference, THEY HAVE TO MIND THE GAP!

Should have been Gary Stanley and his lovely hair cut

but has to be:

You’re gonna get your ****in’ heads kicked in

heard it first in the late 60’s and it always tingled the spine….wrong I know…and glad it’s never heard anymore

Usually sung as an instant response to the away team scoring.

Showing my age, but my favourite has to be “i’m a knock kneed chicken and a bowlegged hen. Ain’t been so happy since I don’t know when. Walk with a wiggle and a wiggle and a squawk doing the East End walk. La la la la la la la la etc (Whilst bouncing up and down). Subsequently found out it’s based on a song called “The Tennessee Wig Walk” from 1953. Worth a Google.

My view is that they are all currently awful. Loved the old school - 'stand up if you hate the gas', 'he's only a poor little gas head' etc, but understand probably not PC anymore or actually that relevant now. I'd prefer player specific chants that followed the usual format i.e. all clubs use them just change the words for their specific player. Anyone can 'be on fire' like Will Griggs for example. Whole crowd knows it and gets it = better atmosphere. 

Good luck getting Taylor Gardner-Hickman to scan there!

Two favourites from the 70s

"We don't carry razors, we don't carry lead "

"I'm a bow-legged chicken, I'm a knock-kneed hen"

 

Also from Spring 1976 - Going up, going up, going up, up and up!

Son of my father by Chicory Tip was amended to Oh Keithy, Keithy Keithy Keithy Fear.

My fav from 1996…

Ago, Ago Ago, Ago Ago, Ago AGOSTINO

Aha yes. That reminds me of the Agostino song. Again only sang a few times by a few of us - was a bit tricky to get this one catching on. 
 

To the tune of Waltzing Matillda

There was a jolly swagman, down by the Do-It-All
Goes by the name of Agostino P. 
He can tackle, he can pass, he can even score against the gas
He’ll keep on scoring for Bristol City
Paul Agostino, Paul Agostino
Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee
He can tackle, he can pass, he can even score against the gas
He’ll keep on scoring for Bristol City.
