sglosbcfc Posted Friday at 20:49 Posted Friday at 20:49 Being honest, most football chants are not very amusing, but there have been a few that have made me laugh out loud over the years. The first from our visitors tomorrow, Plymouth Argyle. I am guessing it was 20+ years ago at Ashton Gate and a City player hacked down a Plymouth player, the chorus from the 3000 away fans was 'you dirty Northern b*stards". Causing much amusement in the Dolman Stand. My personal favourite though was cult hero Steve Jones entering the Ashton Gate pitch with a bizarre orange/brown fake tan, to be met with "OOOOOO OOOOO Jonesy, OO AH I want to know ow ow, where you got that tan?" Met with just as much laughter from Jonesy as there was from the stadium. Any other faves? 6 2 Quote
Ronnie Sinclair Posted Friday at 20:52 Posted Friday at 20:52 One made I laugh on Sunday afternoon - Spurs fans serenading Pep with "you're getting sacked in the morning" Best one of my City-watching career was "he's fat, he's round, his team are going down, baldy, baldy" circa 1993 when we beat Brentford 4-1 to relegate them and a rather portly Brentford fan was going ballistic in the away end 3 Quote

Ronnie Sinclair Posted Friday at 21:05 Posted Friday at 21:05 Another one I remember from years ago, 1989 or 1990 it would have been - a night game at home to Crewe, the Crewe goalkeeper that evening was a Dean Greygoose and every time he took a goal kick in front of the Eastend a cry of "shoot, shoot, shoot that goose!" rang out from said stand 1 Quote

richwwtk Posted Friday at 21:22 Posted Friday at 21:22 (edited) Hate to say it but my two favourites are both Cardiff... Stood with the City fans on the terrace for the (I think) last time at Ninian Park, the Scott Murray earcupping game. Around this time a favourite chant with City fans was "You're not very good, you're not very good, you're not very, you're not very, you're not very good...." - the reply from the Cardiff fans was "You're not very safe, you're not very safe......." - certainly made me laugh. My brother went to Uni there and watched them sometimes. He told me about this one.... To the tune of "She'll be coming round the mountain...." "We're the best behaved supporters in the land, We're the best behaved supporters in the land, We're the best behaved supporters, best behaved supporters, Best behaved supporters in the land WHEN WE WIN We're a bunch of motherf***ers when we lose, We're a bunch of motherf***ers when we lose........"

Northern Red Posted Friday at 21:42 Posted Friday at 21:42 I do like the self depreciating ones, eg away at Stockport some years ago when they were bottom of the league, our lot started with the "going down, going down, going down", to which they responded with "so are we, so are we, so are we". Away at Huddersfield - "Emmerdale, w*nk w*nk w*nk". 1 1 Quote
steveybadger Posted Friday at 21:59 Posted Friday at 21:59 Liked the Millwall one at the postponed Pompey game the other day; ‘No one lights us, no one lights us…..’ 1 5 Quote

Ring Posted Friday at 22:13 Posted Friday at 22:13 My favourite was a Forest Green chant when they were playing Dagenham and Redbridge. Their keeper was called Elliot Justham. The chant from FGR was “Shit Tesco sandwich, you’re just a shit Tesco sandwich”. Made I laugh. 7 4 1 Quote

CyderHead92 Posted Friday at 23:23 Posted Friday at 23:23 One that always made me laugh was " Hes quick he scouse, hes guna rob your house, Gillespie". Quote
fgrsimon Posted Saturday at 04:51 Posted Saturday at 04:51 (edited) At FGR the away fans quite often, when it was popular, sang "You're just a small town in Gloucester" which is perfectly true and never really in question! Edited Saturday at 04:56 by fgrsimon Quote

HappyClapper Posted Saturday at 08:17 Posted Saturday at 08:17 My favourite was home to Sheffield Wednesday some years ago. It was snowing and then an announcement came over the tannoy that the M5 had been closed. Cue “there’s only one bed and breakfast “ 1 Quote

Robbored Posted Saturday at 08:26 Posted Saturday at 08:26 One of the funniest chants I’ve heard at AG was when we played Carlisle on a miserable and wet Tuesday evening with about a dozen away fans all on their own and the chant when up “you must have come in a taxi, come in a taaaxi” Quote

Weymouth also sang to FGR after a challenge, that they were ' dirty northern bastards '. To which FGR sang that Weymouth were ' just a bus stop near Bournemouth '. 2 Quote
The Gasbuster Posted Saturday at 09:42 Posted Saturday at 09:42 The young Stephen Gillespie who we signed from Colchester IIRC. A Liverpudlian. He comes off the bench for his debut to be met with : ”He’s red, he’s scouse, he’s gonna rob your house, Gillespie!” Quote
The Gasbuster Posted Saturday at 09:45 Posted Saturday at 09:45 “**** off Swindon Town, you are going down, Flint said No,No,No” Immense when first sung at Preston, days after ending Swindle’s automatic promotion hopes with THAT 3-0 win. 7 Quote
Chessels Chick Posted Saturday at 09:46 Posted Saturday at 09:46 Might have game and player wrong but think it was Northampton away and Joe Burnell got hit in a delicate area and whilst getting treatment on pitch the crowd sang "where's your bo****ks gone, where's your bo****ks gone!!" 1 1 Quote

Offside Posted Saturday at 10:57 Posted Saturday at 10:57 It was ago and I can’t remember which game or who it was, but it made me laugh when City fans directed the “he’s got a pineapple on his head - and he’s s**t” chant at an opposing player because of his hair. Quote

Port Said Red Posted Saturday at 11:05 Posted Saturday at 11:05 55 minutes ago, grifty said: I always liked the “my garden shed” song about opposition stadiums turning into “my microwave”…”it’s got a door and some buttons” One of the few good things about going away back in the League and lower days. That always brought a smile to my face. One of my favourite "turn around chants" was the Walsall fans in the 8-2 win in our last match in league one. Having equalised just on HT, they were singing "Champions? You're having a laugh", when we went 6 or 7 -2 up they started singing a sheepish "that's why your Champions". Got a good round of applause as I remember. 4 Quote
Bristol Rob Posted Saturday at 11:06 Posted Saturday at 11:06 Probably the sort of chant that would see everyone cancelled these days, but I remember when Wendy Toms was running the line and ended up going off injured to which the chant of 'You should have stayed in the kitchen' was sung with gusto by both sets of supporters. Different times kids. Quote

Boston Red Posted Saturday at 16:29 Posted Saturday at 16:29 We signed Steve Brooker from Port Vale. He got sentenced to jail for 28 days. They let him out early. Our next game was away to Port Vale.

Then their defender cleared the ball against Brooker, it looped over the keeper, and gave us a 2-0 win in Gary Johnson's promotion season. Quote
