A significant number of drinks is the main factor. That causes you to be the annoying twat that doesn't shut up and if you shout it at enough people it just carries on.

That's how I got my greatest achievement at the checkatrade of 'inventing' "we're going down, who gives a fuck, we're Coventry City and we won the cup"

I think I managed to get ‘how shit must you be, Shrewsbury scored 4’ going from the comfort of my own home for Arsenal away

Always vividly remember the three lads just to the right of us in the terrace who started the Muhamed song.

They sang it at the top of their voice, there was almost a hush whilst everyone listened and then as they finished with ‘is a big fucker’ everyone pissed themselves laughing and the majority then joined in on the second time and, as they say, the rest is history!

Funnily enough one of my mates attempts at starting ‘David James is a murderer’ not long after he’d been acquitted for his part in a tragic car crash didn’t take off.

Not his finest moment I’m not going to lie.

Love the picking on GK chants.

Flinders crispy pancakes, Flinders crispy pancakes, la la la la (Away at Hartlepool)

Murphy is his name, Murphy is his name! He stinks of piss, he’s got no mates, Murphy is his name. (away at Scunthorpe)

I still remember a group of lads dancing around humming and saying mcindoe. Think they were on something because it was weird as fuck.

Yeah I find it a bit disappointing that (largely) our supporters don't adopt a quick witty chant that suits the occasion and stick instead to the three known and trusted.
To be fair, match day or otherwise it's only gonna be the very, very few that will take a little time out to come up with something new or even conjure something up to fit the immediate situation. Which is a little baffling as coke, weed and alcohol are normally a great source of inspiration in the studio.

To be fair, having 3 known and trusted songs is a vast improvement on a number of clubs.

Having been to Fratton Park a few times, I've always thought that despite their noise and the fact they're known as a loud bunch, they've only really got 'Play up Pompey, Pompey play up' which after 10 mins, is boring as hell.

I think the quick, on the spot witty ones are brilliant sometimes. I remember watching us a couple of times at Selhurst Park - I reckon about 10-15 years ago, evening games - one might have been a cup game as well.

They had that keeper Speroni in between the sticks and our fans kept on singing something along the lines of 'your mums washed your pyjamas' or something like that. I thought it was hilarious although was a few beers worse for wear.

Other ones that I like are the ones the insult a clubs location knowing it'll wind their fans up. I remember Bristol Citys making all sorts of gestures when we were singing 'You're just a small town in Cardiff' at them. Couldn't be further from the truth but made me chuckle and made them angry.

Like when we sang ‘Sheep, sheep, Sheep shaggers’ at Shrewsbury?

I always enjoy “is there a fire drill”.
Also applauding the opposition goalkeeper as he runs towards us and waiting until he claps back to do the wanker sign.

Yeah, me too. Every thought I have now, relevant to football or not ends up with me thinking ‘I wanna go football’

Not sure if quoted elsewhere…Stolen off FB…. presumably referencing our borrowing of football coming home and being back in Cov

Phoenix on our shirt
FA Cup still gleaming
All these years of hurt……..

you know the rest….

We could do with some new songs but it’s a fine line between tacky and catchy
Some catch on and you think WTF and others just die for no apparent reason!!!

Second one is probably my favourite chant out of them all which means I'm always the prick trying to start it at away games.

YES! Peak West Terrace. Keepers that laughed were a bonus.

"Birmingham is full of sh*t" to the tune of 'Saints Go Marching In' for 20 mins non-stop was about as good it gets.

I loved

Your tits are offside, your tits are offside, Akinfenwa - your tits are offside

to be fair he was laughing his head off when we sang that - fair play

But now I see we've signed keeper Moore
Martyn Waghorn might score
Sheaf as promised before
Someone's bound to be leaving

On it now - slow Friday at work

So many jokes, so many sneers
And all those "no ground jeers"
Wear you down, through the years
But I still see the west end when we won
Gibbo scoring for fun, big Mo on a run
And George and Snoz dancing

Apologies in advance for this one


We’re coming home
We’re coming home
We’re coming
City’s coming home

Fed up playing our home games on tour
We've seen it all before
Fk off Joy
You’re a whore

Cause SISU made us play home games away
We were always away
They knew that we’d pay
But we’ll remember

Fisher puts it in your dirt
His bell end not so gleamin'
Dry until it hurt
Never stopped him reamin'

I’m not saying I called the Phoenix on the shirt but with the new kit it’s a good coincidence

We’re coming home
We’re coming home
We’re coming
City's coming home

Everyone seems to know the score
They've seen it all before
They just know
They're so sure
That City's gonna throw it away
Gonna blow it away
But I know they can play
'Cause I remember

Phoenix on our shirts
FA Cup still gleaming
All those years of hurt
Never stopped us dreaming

So many jokes, so many sneers
And all those “no ground” jeers
Wear you down
Through the years

But I still see the West End when we won
Gibbo scoring for fun
Ndlovu on a run
And Shnozzy Dancing…


Best I can do to make it scan, and because Ndlovu deserves to be there more than Big Mo IMO, credit to @Covkid1968#

Get it made and on the screens first game back

But I still see that donkey kick goal
Houchen heading the ball
And when Huckerby scored
And Snozzer dancing

Phoenix on the shirt
Jimmy Hill still scheming
20 years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming
