If you actually lived here you would know that most people in the area generally refer to Hull KR as 'Rovers', and Hull FC as simply Hull, which is why when chanting 'we all hate Hull' we are talking about FC as a club, not the city itself! :roll: :wink:

:)


Always amazes that people don't get this. Would they be confused by Internazionale fans slagging off Milan? Do they think Aston Villa fans who dislike Birmingham City therefore dislike the city of Birmingham? Real Betis, Sevilla; Espanyol, Barcelona and so on.

Not a RL chant, but I was at Villa Park the other week and this made me smile:

It's your round my Lord, it's your round,
It's your round my Lord, it's your round,
It's your round my Lord, it's your round,
Ohhh Lo-ord, it's your round.

The irony of all this, is that if any Irish person confronted you (or the vast majority who think its a good idea to sing such rubbish) I reckon you would fill your pants and leave yourself in an extremely embarrassed position.

If you feel that patriotic, then join the army and become cannon fodder for the taliban.

Not a patch on the cringeworthy "when the Bulls go charging in" :oops: :lol:

I agree.
Ballbags always talk it up.

......leave him to it. If he paid attention he would see that the British Government didn't surrender and Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness are not now in Power in Northern Ireland with that other upstanding chap, the Very reverend Dr Ian Paisley :?
I suspect he still keeps an old video of the outstanding behaviour of the English soccer fans at Landsdown road in 2000, although he has probaly wiped the bit's off the news showing hundreds of them comming off the ferries having had 7 bells knocked out of them by An Garda Siochana :lol:
Lastly, I remember the brave English fans in Euro 88 who, if it hadn't been for the Kind reaction of the Irish fans when the Germans and Dutch had them cornered, would in all probability had their arses posted back to the UK. The dutch and germans, whilst keen on having a scrap with the brits, were slightly more cautious about the 3,000 pi55ed micks who welcomed the terrified English with open arms (and empty wallets......I didn't pay for a dring for 3 days after that...very appreciative they were)

Why would they sing it to Yorkshire clubs?

As it happens I don't like it either. Only ever really happens when things aren't going right. The 'Yorkshire' chant is usually followed shortly by a 'The Referee's a W@nker' chant when the Leeds defence completely disintegrates.

I always liked the LUFC song:

Forever and ever,
We'll follow our team,
We're leeds united,
We rule supreme,
We'll never be mastered,
By you, by you whoever b**tards,
We'll keep the white flag flying high!

However i did see the funny side that a white flag flying high is known to mean surrender.

MUFC have a lot of creative chants about their players. Was told like one guy writes them all.

As a Bulls fan i can't think of a chant that's not just a chant other clubs sing with slightly different wording.

I prefer songs that are positive towards the team rather than negative towards another team.

Always liked the good old "Wise men say...".






Kiss me where the sun don't shine
The past was yours
But the future's mine
You're all out of time.

Pete Boyle writes most of them, then Wigan and Liverpool fans change them. :wink:
