There was a hell of a lot worse in the 70s and 80s than putting a sick twist on the Jacks egg chasing song.
I’m certainly talking more about the 80s that the 70s and 60s - when all the songs you’ve mentioned above had petered out, but I’m sure similar stuff went on then as the 70s were just as bad as the 80s for what went on.
When we watch ‘It was OK in the 80s my kids can’t believe what we thought was acceptable/ funny then .
The kids in the Canton made a good deal of noise last night - and unlike the vast majority of our fans they turned up.
They are also the only ones who sing. The rest of the ground are quiet and will often look at you a bit weird if you have a go.
Some of the songs are crap, agreed .. although taking the piss out of the English in the Euros is childish but still funny.. as they would certainly have been letting us know has they won.
It’s still preferable to a morgue of a ground which is what it would be without them
