As I was on the train to London on Saturday a group of Brizzle City lads thought it fine
to regale me with " Always shit on the Welsh side of the bridge ".
They've been slow learners though.
There is still room for banter as in being called sheep shaggers by every English club
but hopefully responding with 1 - 0 to the sheep shaggers. That I love.
I was stood in the gangway at Fulham, as the person in my seat made it clear he wasn't going anywhere... Being amongst a bunch of young and not-so- young "fans" and watching their faces contorted with hate at every opportunity,combined with being deafened by their vile songs made me so proud to be a city supporter. Walking through the park and seeing the general population's reaction to these brain-dead yobs chanting was cringeworthy. Have a good day out, have a drink,support your team but don't be an embarrassment to the rest of us,it is cringeworthy.
I wish soccer fans were more like football, rugby and hurling fans here. The banter is still there, but no one would consider getting uptight with a fan of the other team.
As for international soccer, Ireland, Wales and Scotland could teach England fans a thing or two about enjoying themselves.
We have another sport, Gaelic football. Always known as 'football'. If you're talking in a bar it creates confusion. I'd say the same is used in the US & Australia.
I don't like it, mainly for the reasons given above i.e we have an English manager and a number of English players out their busting a gut for us and that's what they hear in return.
im in England
I sing them to my English bird
shes even trained now to sing the echo
I thought all that was harmless banter
cmon I remember the adults singing "DO THE ALAN DAVIES" while performing a chocking gesture in the early 90s on the bob bank
maybe that was a bit naughty (some of you on here were possibly doing that lol )
I was just a pup myself and I din even know who the guy was so I carried on watching the game
booing joey fackface barton is compulsory though
A few of you have mentioned that we should be aiming our chants more to our boys/club in a positive light which I agree with.
I also like the sheep shagger songs. It really is self-depricating humour and I've always thought it kind of makes us immune to chants against us.
Men of Harlech - I've never known why we sing it. It's got bugger all to do with Cardiff (Harlech being North Wales). Regardless, it's still a rousing number and I like it.
It makes me wonder though, those of you who do sing 'Ingerland is full shit', did you boo Neil Taylor at the Villa game, and did you cheer him on during the Euro's?
You do Love to throw around the 'Thick / Stupid' insult to anyone who does not agree with you.
My guess you were bullied in school and find throwing insults around online makes you feel big.
That is rough on 'pompous school headmaster pricks'.
They Surely do not deserve that.
