I must admit it was good to hear that Craig Disley song again when he scored against Barnet last week!

Not very 'PC' this, but I do remember Millwall fans singing:
"Bobby Moore, Bobby Moore running from the Den, Bobby Moore, Bobby Moore he has sex with men!"

Portsmouth away back in the 80s the week after the pitch invasion at Reading. At the end of the match a large group of coppers lined up in front of the Rover fans. All of them were tall except one who was short and fat. Rovers fans started singing "there's only one little fat one" much to the amusement of his colleagues.
remember that like it was yesterday. also the players came on the train with letters telling us they always give 110%, in reference to the pitch invasion

Not so much a chant, but a shout from in the Blackthorn End. I think our keeper was Shearer. But whoever it was, they were having a bad game - goal kicks into the stands left or right, or straight to their CF. One wag had had enough of this and just before another goal kick shouted "Oi, Shearer, take your wife's slippers off ". Never was a comment so apt.

When the Equals had a hit in the 60s with "Viva Bobby Joe" and it was played over the tannoy at Eastville, didn't we used to sing "Viva Bobby Jones " in the Tote End??

We most certainly did, and not just in the Tote End neither. Physically Bobby always reminded me of Freddie Mills, but he was a character wasn't he? When he took a shot at goal you could never tell where the ball might end up, but he was a team player, and most importantly a trier . . . which is why he was loved by the Eastville crowd. |

I still have my letter and the programme,they were given out on the way to the game , David Williams gave me the letter ( I think he was injured so not playing) he looked at me like I was personally responsible for the Reading trouble....I wasn't even there as I had just been made redundant so I ( quite responsibly) decided to only go to Portsmouth..ironically because I thought that there would be more trouble at Portsmouth. I remember the fat little copper,looked like porky pig or a porky pig. |

I really liked Bobby Jones,100% player and always looked as if he was happy to be playing,I was sad to hear that he has been in poor health recently. |

I would like to claim the credit for starting that one along with a mate of mine 
The only other 'new' chant I remember getting going was at Ashton late70s/early 80s during (I think) a Gloucester Cup game. Kevin Mabbutt went down injured and I managed to get everyone joining in with 'There's only one Mabbutt left' NOt exactly Oscar Wilde, but I was quite chuffed with myself at the time.

Please study the following video for the danger of being "not exactly Oscar Wilde". |

I just read on another article about someone who says they go to the games to enjoy the comments from fellow gasheads (as well as a top quality game of football, no doubt). It got me thinking of some of the things that stick in my mind that fellow gasheads have shouted out or chanted. "you're rubbish Gurney. You never made it!" Against Leeds: "VAT! VAT! F###ING PAY IT!!"The verbal destruction and substitution of Tranmere's Myrie-Williams. "Williams is a wa......etc" Any more for any more?!? Liked the one heard at Woking to Money Money Money - Puddy Puddy Puddy Must be funny Youre not Mildenhall |
