This article got me thinking our own desperately unfunny but incredibly offensive chant. inews.co.uk/sport/football/chelsea-song-why-homophobic-harmful-no-place-football-2072870Why it was revived I’ll never know but it’s noticeable that it originates in a part of the kop that regularly sings other chants from the 80s so I’d vaguely assume it was resurrected by someone who is old enough to know better. Whatever, its fucking awful and I wish there was a way to stop it.

Several years ago I contacted the club to see if anything could be done about this. I can't remember the stadium manager at the time, and I'm sure he's left now, but he said they could put people in the crowd to find out where it was originating from. Almost immediately it stopped and I haven't heard it again until this season. As I was sitting in the kop with my daughter at the time it really was excruciating to hear. I've listened to almost every kind of offensive chanting in the last 60+ years and nothing has ever bothered me except this one. As much as anything, I feel embarrassed for the poor pond life who think it's funny.

I used to sing it as a teenager in the 80s, as you get older you like to think you develop intelligence wise. It's a actually an awful chant. Although digging someone to have sex with their dead corpse is seen a weekend pastime in Queensbury.

Different times and all that, I also remember we sang "get your tits out for the lads" at Su Pollard . But getting rid of that stuff was a change for the better, and there were a lot less lasses at games in those days and a lot less little kids too.

Chants about massacring another group of football fans = absolutely fine. I mean that’s how it should be, surely?

I used to enjoy City fans singing the Laurel and Hardy theme tune when the constabulary would walk in front of the Kop towards the end of the second half. A mate used to be itching to mug Shaun Harvey when he'd collected the turnstile takings and would walk in front of the stands with his bags full of cash.

Honestly though, these are football chants, you can't take them seriously. If you're offended by that sort of thing, how the fuck do you get through the day?

"Duh, Duh, Der Der Der Der Der, Ooooh" Quite possibly the most damning indictment of the IQ levels of our fanbase. Started in the first premiership season after our home opener against Wednesday, who had the same chant but ended it with 'Booth'. As Andy Booth played for them. So, still a shit chant, but made sense. The very next week.....

There’s not enough abuse of opposition players and/or fans these days. Things tend to lean more toward being supportive of your own team which is fine but I miss the days when a hostile crowd could make a player or team shit it and fold.

I just mouthed similar sounds.
