Going to Nottingham Forest or County, parking in one of the parks by the river Trent and then walking along the river to either stadium is one of the most pleasant and relaxing ways you could ever wish to get to any football stadium. Marvellous.

Not sure if you would have said that back in the 70s the chance of getting thrown in was high.

Barnsley said:
Nowt wrong with Barnsley, never seen a prostitute on the street, hardly any murders, zero gang crime, homelessness is minimal, has is drug use, compared to other towns, yes some villagers are run down, but that’s more to do with the government shitting on us constantly, rather than the people themselves bringing it down, there’s some very nice areas, and the countryside we’re surrounded by is stunning.

The song "[enter team name] get battered everywhere they go" no matter who is playing gets on my fuckin nerves!!

And i don't like that there appears to be a franchise on the "Olé ..." chant (anyone know it by another name?) every time anyone scores a goal, at every ground in the league.

So unoriginal these days.

Remember hearing a load of them chanting “Sunderland get battered…” when we were away at Doncaster in the promotion season. Really fucking weird, making us look tinpot!

Is a 'library' and every city or town a 'shithole' and everyone's fans are 'fucking shit'. Including ours as the away fans at the CBS tell us so too.

Really is so cringeworthy and getting on my nerves a bit now. I get it at some places like Mansfield, which really is a genuine shithole or even MK Dons whose fans are fucking shit, but it's become a staple part of our repertoire.

The other song that needs to get in the bin (across the football league) is “(insert team) gets battered everywhere they go”.

I first heard it away with England in Prague vs Czech Republic in 2019. It was new and had inference to both on and off the pitch.

2 years on and it’s sang by every tin pot team about their rival or who they’re playing on the day. Make it stop.

On another note, some of our fans are clearly in a bubble as they think the ‘We’ve got Michael Doyle’ and Gustavo song were made up by Cov fans and everyone copied us. From what I am aware, Everton, Newcastle, Sheff Utd and Wolves sang a variation of the Gustavo song before us.

I think we *may* have invented the Michael Doyle song - didn't some saddo from Leamington actually make a record of it??

We didn't, Chelsea were singing it about their midfielder Bakayoko months before.

Most songs are cringy. I love the cov songs to support the team and to encourage but the football in a library etc is embarrassing.

Still, we're footy fans. We kind of are embarrassing

Have we ever created an original song in the last few years where we haven't copied others?

Before anyone says, the Gyokeres song is a PG rip off of the Man Utd George Best song.

TBF writing songs isn’t easy. Got to be some new songs out there we can corrupt for CCFC!?

There were plenty of decent ones on the song thread and elsewhere but not being sung by an 8 year old makes them easier to dismiss

The one that annoys me the most is “your moms your dad, your dads your mom”

I don’t think the people that sing it realise “inter breeding” is different to being “inbred”.
