It's never sat well with me and I don't sing it.
Our manager is English, most of our players are English, some of our favourite players from the past were English, and our club was even founded by an Englishman.
Also, the most successful football clubs in the world are English, so what's shit about it?
It seems very narrow-minded and I'll never sing it.
Whilst I'm on the subject of our songs, I haven't heard 'I'll be there' much this season.
I'd hope a lot of you would agree with that comment.
I agree, entirely.
Most Successful?
Barcelona
Real
AC Milan.
Juve
and a few more.
Or "we aren't the greatest team in football the world has ever seen."
Standing up because you hate England can feel quite awkward if you are English yourself.
I don't think Swansea fans enjoy eating rats either.
It's just stupid banter from a minority of thick tw@ts.
This pathetic chanting does need to be replaced by more innovative chants aimed at supporting the team rather than throwing racist abuse at England in particular. Must admit never heard of similar abuse being aimed at any other nation.
Sheffield Wednesday and United are particularly good at supporting their teams rather than hurling abuse in general direction of opponents and TV audiences.
Man Utd also have a decent repertoire.
There is quite a lot of shit in England mind you. The 'Royal' tax dodgers, obese people everywhere with extra shit and Jonathan Ross for starters.
I don't. Hardly chant anything anymore, probably because I'm getting older.
I just don't buy into the argument that the nationality of any of the clubs' representatives makes any difference. What about Welsh players at English clubs when they're calling us sheep shaggers? I did a gig with a band once for an organisation in Swansea who, after lots of beer had been drunk and they realised the band was made primarily of Cardiff fans, decided to give us the full regalia of Jack chants. I wasn't bothered one iota, neither was anyone else in the band. We were on their patch. It was a good night if memory serves.
I once saw the Jacks on telly going to see the Pope though. He told 'em to feck off
Positive songs, positive waves.
Negative songs, negative energy.
Oh lovely Wales (oh lovely Wales)
Is full of sheep (is full of sheep)
Oh lovely Wales is full of sheep
Full of sheep and I love my sheep
Oh lovely Wales is full of sheep
See, much better
