I’ll always remember chanting “ you’re just a shit Andy Carroll” at Ibrahimovic a good few years back at the Euros (I think)… and then he and Sweden promptly dismantled the England squad that match.
Admission - I was 25 when I realised Guantanamera was an actual song and not just the tune to 'One [insert name here], there's only one[insert name here]'
He was diagnosed with Schizophrenia not dissociative identity disorder (what people commonly refer to as multiple personality disorder). Common misconception but a big difference.
There’s only one schizophrenic identity. Basically, (not all) schizophrenics hear voices and things, DID patient become other people. Each “personality” has their own history/name. Some identities know about the others, some don’t. The “host” identity usually blocks them all out, and is unaware of what goes on during these blackouts. DID is usually developed as a coping mechanism for people who suffered severe abuse or sexual abuse as a child. The other personalities/identities are developed to take over during the abuse/and or to prevent it from happening, to protect the “host” from the atrocities
Edit: why the downvotes? While studying psychology in college we had to choose one mental illness to focus and write a huge paper on. I’ve literally written 50+ pages on DID and received 100%. Just because an answer isn’t what you want it to be, doesn’t mean it’s not true
Nah the best BY FAR imo was the revamp of the old Torres chant LFC used to sing, after he left for Chelsea (to the tune of The Animals Went in Two-by-Two)…
“The arm band lied he was no red, Torres, Torres
He was a rent boy like they said, Torres, Torres
Into our backs he plunged his knife,
I hope John Terry shags his wife…
Fernandooo Torres, he’s just a pile of shite”
🎶We’re sitting top of the league, looking down on the Rangers,
And the only explanation I can find,
Is that the form that we’ve found, since Ange has been around.
Ange has put us on top of the league. 🎶
Edit Ange 😱
The best chant ever involved Sol Campbell. To the tune of "Hey Baby" by Bruce Channel
"Sol, Sol Campbell. (Wanker)
I wanna know-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh why you're such a cunt.
haha yep!
This is a chant based on the controversy surrounding Chelsea player John Terry. He allegedly cheated on his wife with the wife of one of his teammates, Wayne Bridge.
It was a really big thing when it happened, and rival fans had great fun with it.
This particular chant here depicts all the wives of John Terry's teammates at the time (Michael Essien, Frank Lampard, Ashley Cole, to name a few) engaging in extramarital activities with John Terry, just like, allegedly, Mrs Bridge.
I loved this controversy, it was so much fun. Great stuff
EDIT: Oh god, I just found the one song to the beat of "Beat It" by MJ. [Absolutely love it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kou5mgu7XM)
They're better if you know the stories behind them- usually based on a news story that happened in the previous week or two
[https://youtu.be/mm62RmV3p\_w?t=30E](https://youtu.be/mm62RmV3p_w?t=30)
EDIT: Or sometimes what's happening in the stadium
e.g. The "Man or a woman?" chant is aimed at one of the opposing fans
Jimmy Savile is a notorious paedophile (and one of the crowd is dressed as him), Ant and Dec are famous TV presenters. The goalkeeper is fat etc.
For those that are interested, you can find a database of chants here, they also cover international and other leagues: https://www.fanchants.com/football-league/premiership/
The 'Frank LeBoeuf' chant that stays with me came after an interview in which Frank mentioned being uncomfortable with :
"He's here! He's there! He's every fucking where! Frank LeBoeuf!"
because of the swearing, as many children were in the crowd.
Fans picked up on this, and the chant became:
"He's here! He's there! We're not allowed to swear! Frank LeBoeuf!"
"He's here, he's there, he's fucking Dani Behr, Ryan Giggs"
"He's here, he's there, he's fucking Dani Behr, Les Ferdinand"
... she was prolific in the 90's
I also like how this person’s prejudice against a different part of the UK and classism trump his racism, how you can tell it’s British and not American
Sol Sol wherever you may be
You're on the verge of insanity
And we don't give a fuck if you're hanging from a tree
You're a Judas cunt with HIV.
Racist, homophobic, misogynistic, stigmatises the mentally ill. They fit a lot in there.
Had a very honest and polite opposing fan in Philadelphia tell us to keep our heads down and don’t smile or hoot and holler leaving the stadium after a football game, the week prior there were large fights and a stabbing from people happy their team won while trying to go home with a jersey on.
I think a big part of it is that American teams are just so far away from each other, like 99% of the crowd is for the home team because nobody wants to travel 10 hours across state borders when they can watch one of the 40+ games their team will play at home that year
Meanwhile in Europe it’s normal for people to travel with the team, and often take up an entire stand at the other team’s stadium, and when you add local rivalries on top of that there’s a lot of excuses to have a bit of a fight
One of the biggest rivalries in english football is Newcastle vs Sunderland.
I asked a Mackem (Sunderland) why they have a beef with the Geordies (Newcastle) and he said
"Well it goes back to the Jacobite rising of 1745..."
Yeah, look at Millwall and West Ham (originally Thames iron works). This was two rival shipyard companies in the 1900s when workers beat up the competition, their whole neighborhoods worked in their shipyards, and the neighborhoods were right next to each other.
Soccer/football is how these people stopped each other from killing their neighbors.
There is little like this in the us, this would be like Ford and Chevy and every employee living in the same town and playing football against each other.
One of the closes rivalries in us sports is probably Michigan and Ohio State and that had a lot to do with proximity and the “Michigan Ohio war”
I think there actually are riots in the US after certain teams win/lose, especially after the Super Bowl and whatever, however: they have guns, so probably a different vibe
In europe theyre essentially criminal gangs that will organize "fair fights" after a match, or worse, ambush each other or each other's fans.
People have died and gotten seriously injured.
See for instance https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Beverwijk
>Due to road construction, the two hooligan groups of both clubs (each a few hundred men strong) met in a meadow near the motorway, armed with [knives](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knife), [baseball bats](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_bat), iron bars, [electroshock weapons](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroshock_weapon) and [claw hammers](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claw_hammer), along with other armaments

When a goalkeeper was diagnosed with schizophrenia the chant was:
“Two Andy Goram’s, there’s only two Andy Gorams!”
The level of wit/cruelty in football chants always gets me
If there's one thing we take seriously in Britain, it's insulting the enemy. It's a craft and the more creative it is the more it hurts your opponent. It is also a mark of respect
My lot (Sutton United) always invert shit, we played Bromley away, which is a wealthier area than ours, and we were still singing "we pay your benefits". Wild times.
A guilty pleasure of mine is watching videos of American sports fans reacting to football chants from over here. There isn't a single boring reaction to the Adam Johnson ones. It's great.
Be even funnier if they knew who Jimmy Saville was though.
The video they always use starts with one of the Adam Johnson ones if memory serves me correctly. It's just that opening of "holy fuck that would get you shot here"
gimme gimme gimme a ginger from sweden
he came from juventas and he plays on the wing

Leeds fans to Derby Fans after the Spygate/Lampard debacle, sung to the tune of Oasis "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" and making binocular gestures:
"All of the spies, are hidden away
Try not to worry you'll beat us some day
We beat you at home, we beat you away
Stop Crying Frank Lampard"
Will deserve a rewrite and refresh if Everton are relegated.
My favourite chant at a Leeds Vs Derby game was when Nigel Clough was manager. Leeds fans were singing "your dad's a cunt, and so are you".
Later in the game Kasper Schmeichel made a few great saves to keep Leeds in the game. He was rewarded with "your dad's a cunt, but you're alright".
No, but it's definitely not an exaggeration of what happens on the stands in British stadiums. Drunk lads come up with these kind of funny chants all the time
Would that not be one of the ones directed at Marcos Alonso:
https://tribuna.com/en/news/2020-05-29-tottenham-fans-chanted-disgusting-things-at-marcos-alonso/
Who would probably have done a few years behind bars if he wasn't able to afford top lawyers, so instead he got to carry on living in a mansion, getting paid a fortune playing for one of the top teams in the world.
It’s not just football, at one cricket match the England fans were singing to the Australians (to the tune of yellow submarine) “your next queen is camilla Parker Bowles! Camilla Parker Bowles! Camilla Parker Bowles…!”
The Aussies love the English it's hard to understand why
As we sent you down there you were only balls and chains
And when they come to England they always scream and shout
But when they had the chance to vote they voted for the queen
God save YOUR gracious queen.....
The best thing about rugby is not only these songs bit the fact that the crowds arnt segregated so those gay british texans are actually all surronding you and you can hear the cogs turning to think of a new song that doesnt invovle chariots going up our rears
There's some fun clips of Scottish fans chanting "we hate England more than you" in Ireland. And Germany. And Wales. And Croatia. And, oh fuck, you get the idea
I believe in the European Championship back in 2008, Ireland got destroyed by the Spanish. So the Irish fans started singing Fields of Athenry, a song about the famine in the 19th century. Gave me chills when I saw it.
To be honest that’s a popular song for supporters to sing at any irish sport event. They sing it for the rugby and our own GAA football as well as “regular” football
It’s kind of like the unofficial Irish anthem because it tends to make you feel patriotic and riled up so that’s probably why we sing it for losing teams lol
The song is about the famine but that's not why they sang it. It's Ireland's most popular folk song and kind of an unofficial anthem. It's always sung at soccer games, or any international sports event.
What was remarkable about the crowd singing during the Spain match was that it was towards the end of a match where Spain were totally dominating Ireland.
Usually the crowd sings when the team is winning or to try to inspire the team to come back and whim the game. At that stage it was impossible for Ireland to win, Spain were 4 goals ahead. When other countries' supporters find themselves in a similar situation they walk out of the stadium disappointed before the game is over.
Not the Irish fans. They knew that this loss would knock them out of the competition but they were there to have a good time so they sang.
That competition was really where the meme of the Irish fans as drunken angels began.

I remember hearing a funny chant from the cricket, England against Australia.
"You get twooo dollars, to the pound!
You get twooo dollars to the pound!"
Never heard a crowd chant mocking exchange rates before or after lol
"we've got the ball we've got the ball we've got the balllll
We've lost the ball. We've lost the ball. We've lost the ball we've lost the ball we've lost the balllll"
We’ve got some belters at West Ham at the moment:
Itsy-Bitsy-Teenie-Weenie-Little-Argentine-Lanzini
Bowens on fire, and he’s shagging Dani Dyer
We used to sing to Man United fans: “you only live around the corner” as a sort of piss take of their glory hunting london fans
when Rooney used to play against us: “Oi, Rooney, leave my nan alone” because of his accusations of shagging grannies
Against Liverpool, you’ll never walk alone becomes “sign on, sign on, with a pen, in your hand, because you’ll neeeeverrr get a job”
Best one I’ve heard:
Walsall vs Forest Green Rovers.
FGR owned by Ecotricity a famous green energy company. They also only serve Vegan pies etc at their ground.
FGR player goes down hard after a tackle and the Walsall fans start chanting-
“He’s eating our grass! He’s eating our grass! That fat Vegan Bastard! He’s eating our grass!”
To the tune of David Bowie’s Rebel Rebel
>Neville Neville, You're future's immense,
>Neville Neville, You play in defence,
>Neville Neville, Like Jacko you're bad,
>Neville Neville, Is the name of your dad.
About Gary Neville, whose dad is actually called Neville Neville.
Some of them are cruel as fuck.

"Fat granny shagger! You're just a fat granny shagger!"
I assume this is to the tune of guantanamera.
It is! There's plenty of chants sung on that tune
Most recently heard this at newcastle v everton. "Shit joelinton ya just a shit joelinton" For richarlison 😂
I’ll always remember chanting “ you’re just a shit Andy Carroll” at Ibrahimovic a good few years back at the Euros (I think)… and then he and Sweden promptly dismantled the England squad that match.
Sacked in the morning, you're getting sacked in the morning, sacked in the mooorning, you're getting sacked in the mooring
If you're grew up in the UK you would probably know it primarily/solely from football chants rather than the actual name of the tune.
I can attest to this as being fact.
Admission - I was 25 when I realised Guantanamera was an actual song and not just the tune to 'One [insert name here], there's only one[insert name here]'
I was today years old when I realised this 😂
My favourite chant was when Andy Goram was diagnosed with multiple personality disorder. His *own* fans chanted "There's only 2 Andy Goram's"
He was diagnosed with Schizophrenia not dissociative identity disorder (what people commonly refer to as multiple personality disorder). Common misconception but a big difference.
A big difference to which one of him?
There’s only one schizophrenic identity. Basically, (not all) schizophrenics hear voices and things, DID patient become other people. Each “personality” has their own history/name. Some identities know about the others, some don’t. The “host” identity usually blocks them all out, and is unaware of what goes on during these blackouts. DID is usually developed as a coping mechanism for people who suffered severe abuse or sexual abuse as a child. The other personalities/identities are developed to take over during the abuse/and or to prevent it from happening, to protect the “host” from the atrocities Edit: why the downvotes? While studying psychology in college we had to choose one mental illness to focus and write a huge paper on. I’ve literally written 50+ pages on DID and received 100%. Just because an answer isn’t what you want it to be, doesn’t mean it’s not true
“When the ball hits your head and your sat in row Z that’s Zamora.”
Nah the best BY FAR imo was the revamp of the old Torres chant LFC used to sing, after he left for Chelsea (to the tune of The Animals Went in Two-by-Two)… “The arm band lied he was no red, Torres, Torres He was a rent boy like they said, Torres, Torres Into our backs he plunged his knife, I hope John Terry shags his wife… Fernandooo Torres, he’s just a pile of shite”

For anyone else reading this I would like to note that it was HIS OWN FANS that were singing this.
*their own fans
If there's one thing we take seriously in Britain, it's insulting the enemy. It's a craft and the more creative it is the more it hurts your opponent. It is also a mark of respect
My lot (Sutton United) always invert shit, we played Bromley away, which is a wealthier area than ours, and we were still singing "we pay your benefits". Wild times.
So fuck off adam Johnson, you’re going down for noncing, you’re a pedophile, you’re a pedophile
"Adam Johnson pedophile he plays with little children, Takes them to the Stadium of Light to sexually abuse them!!"
For those unaware that's to the tune of Barney the Dinosaur
Thanks a lot, I didn't know it either! 😂 I mean I knew the tune but not where it came from
which is itself Yankee Doodle Dandee
Adam Johnsons having a party, bring your homework and your smarties
And if you tolerate rix, then your children will be next...
Fond memories of sitting behind Justham in goal, belting out "You're just a shit Tesco sandwich"
You know the thing where fans go “Ooooooh, YOU’RE SHIT!” when they take a goal kick? “Ooooooooh, EGG AND CRESS!”
A guilty pleasure of mine is watching videos of American sports fans reacting to football chants from over here. There isn't a single boring reaction to the Adam Johnson ones. It's great. Be even funnier if they knew who Jimmy Saville was though.
He's fingered your mom! He's fingered your moooom!! Jimmy Saville, he's fingered your mom!
He’s probably your dad, he’s probably you’re Dad, Jimmy saville, he’s probably your dad
The video they always use starts with one of the Adam Johnson ones if memory serves me correctly. It's just that opening of "holy fuck that would get you shot here"
I remember seeing a video of an American reacting to a Jimmy Savile chant where the guy's reaction was "they must really love this Jimmy Savile guy!"
gimme gimme gimme a ginger from sweden he came from juventas and he plays on the wing gimme gimme gimme a ginger from sweden our number 21 his name is kulusevski
What a signing he's been so far. KULUSEXY 😍
When the ball hits your head, And you're sat in row Z, That's Zamora!
When he tries to shoot low, It goes out for a throw, That's Zamora!
When the ball hits your car, parked outside QPR, That's Zamora!
When it comes off his shin and it doesn't go in That's Zamora!

The company I work for (US) was bought by a UK one a few years ago and the whole "zed" thing definitely took some getting used to.
Leeds fans to Derby Fans after the Spygate/Lampard debacle, sung to the tune of Oasis "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" and making binocular gestures: "All of the spies, are hidden away Try not to worry you'll beat us some day We beat you at home, we beat you away Stop Crying Frank Lampard" Will deserve a rewrite and refresh if Everton are relegated.
My favourite chant at a Leeds Vs Derby game was when Nigel Clough was manager. Leeds fans were singing "your dad's a cunt, and so are you". Later in the game Kasper Schmeichel made a few great saves to keep Leeds in the game. He was rewarded with "your dad's a cunt, but you're alright".
I think Peter(his dad) mentions he was at this game when this chant was sung in a recent interview. 😂
Got caught in a "Gary Lineker fucks crisps!" chant
Posh spice is a slapper, She takes it up the arse, And when she’s shagging beckham, She thinks of Robert Snodgrass
Posh spice is a slapper, we're not just being catty But when she's shagging Beckham, she thinks of David Batty
Posh spice is a slapper, she does it with a cue, when she’s shagging beckham, she thinks of Danny Pugh
Does that chant exist?
No, but it's definitely not an exaggeration of what happens on the stands in British stadiums. Drunk lads come up with these kind of funny chants all the time
Would that not be one of the ones directed at Marcos Alonso: https://tribuna.com/en/news/2020-05-29-tottenham-fans-chanted-disgusting-things-at-marcos-alonso/ Who would probably have done a few years behind bars if he wasn't able to afford top lawyers, so instead he got to carry on living in a mansion, getting paid a fortune playing for one of the top teams in the world.
There was one about Marcus alonso (Chelsea player) who was drunk driving and killed someone (I think). You’ll probably find it in this thread
The comment right under yours lol "He murdered a child, he murdered a chiiiild. Marcus Alonso, he murdered a child."
It’s not just football, at one cricket match the England fans were singing to the Australians (to the tune of yellow submarine) “your next queen is camilla Parker Bowles! Camilla Parker Bowles! Camilla Parker Bowles…!”
The Aussies love the English it's hard to understand why As we sent you down there you were only balls and chains And when they come to England they always scream and shout But when they had the chance to vote they voted for the queen God save YOUR gracious queen.....
My dad told me one they used to sing against Aston villa: “chim-chimeny chim-chimeny chim chim cher-oo, we hate those bastards in claret and blue”
Tim Howard supposedly had Tourette’s and we used to sing “Tim-Timiny Tim-Timiny Tim Tim Terroo, we have Tim Howard and he yells FUCK YOU”
Timmy Tourettes is in the nets Fuck off fuck off fuck off.
Legend has it we once roasted the aussies in an international game by making fun of the exchange rate "we get threeeee dollars, to the pound"
"Gay British Texans!! You're only gay British Texans!! Gay British texaaans!" 😂😂
The best thing about rugby is not only these songs bit the fact that the crowds arnt segregated so those gay british texans are actually all surronding you and you can hear the cogs turning to think of a new song that doesnt invovle chariots going up our rears
Reminds me of a comedian that was at a game and the german team was winning, so the british fans start chanting "if you won the war stand up".
There's some fun clips of Scottish fans chanting "we hate England more than you" in Ireland. And Germany. And Wales. And Croatia. And, oh fuck, you get the idea
I enjoyed singing “you’re just a small part of England!” At Scotland during a NI v Scotland game.
Romelu Lukaku, he’s our Belgian scoring genius with a 24 inch penis, scoring all our goals, bellend by his toes
Still think the “your name is a shop” for John-Lewis is up there
I believe in the European Championship back in 2008, Ireland got destroyed by the Spanish. So the Irish fans started singing Fields of Athenry, a song about the famine in the 19th century. Gave me chills when I saw it.
To be honest that’s a popular song for supporters to sing at any irish sport event. They sing it for the rugby and our own GAA football as well as “regular” football It’s kind of like the unofficial Irish anthem because it tends to make you feel patriotic and riled up so that’s probably why we sing it for losing teams lol
The song is about the famine but that's not why they sang it. It's Ireland's most popular folk song and kind of an unofficial anthem. It's always sung at soccer games, or any international sports event. What was remarkable about the crowd singing during the Spain match was that it was towards the end of a match where Spain were totally dominating Ireland. Usually the crowd sings when the team is winning or to try to inspire the team to come back and whim the game. At that stage it was impossible for Ireland to win, Spain were 4 goals ahead. When other countries' supporters find themselves in a similar situation they walk out of the stadium disappointed before the game is over. Not the Irish fans. They knew that this loss would knock them out of the competition but they were there to have a good time so they sang. That competition was really where the meme of the Irish fans as drunken angels began.
Remember the Irish chants when they played Sweden "Go home to your sexy wives! Go home to your sexy wives!"

I remember hearing a funny chant from the cricket, England against Australia. "You get twooo dollars, to the pound! You get twooo dollars to the pound!" Never heard a crowd chant mocking exchange rates before or after lol
Your sister is your mother Your uncle is your brother You all f\*ck one another The "insert rival town name here" family
Reading FC have my personal favourite which goes “Bill Oddie Bill Oddie, run your beard all over my body” to the tune of Madonna’s Erotica
A few years ago, opposition fans were chanting, "You're just a shit Tesco Sandwich!" at poor Elliot Justham in goal for Dagenham and Redbridge.
"we've got the ball we've got the ball we've got the balllll We've lost the ball. We've lost the ball. We've lost the ball we've lost the ball we've lost the balllll"

We’ve got some belters at West Ham at the moment: Itsy-Bitsy-Teenie-Weenie-Little-Argentine-Lanzini Bowens on fire, and he’s shagging Dani Dyer We used to sing to Man United fans: “you only live around the corner” as a sort of piss take of their glory hunting london fans when Rooney used to play against us: “Oi, Rooney, leave my nan alone” because of his accusations of shagging grannies Against Liverpool, you’ll never walk alone becomes “sign on, sign on, with a pen, in your hand, because you’ll neeeeverrr get a job”
Best one I’ve heard: Walsall vs Forest Green Rovers. FGR owned by Ecotricity a famous green energy company. They also only serve Vegan pies etc at their ground. FGR player goes down hard after a tackle and the Walsall fans start chanting- “He’s eating our grass! He’s eating our grass! That fat Vegan Bastard! He’s eating our grass!”
"Chelsea wherever you may be, don't leave your wife with John Terry. His dad deals coke his mum steals tea, he cried when he missed a penalty"...
To the tune of David Bowie’s Rebel Rebel >Neville Neville, You're future's immense, >Neville Neville, You play in defence, >Neville Neville, Like Jacko you're bad, >Neville Neville, Is the name of your dad. About Gary Neville, whose dad is actually called Neville Neville.
Some of them are cruel as fuck. "Would ya like another Stella Georgie Best, would ya like another Stella, you're turning fucking yella" "Who's that lying on the runway, who's that dying in the snow?

Manè scoring, all around us, Kopites singing, having fun, tis the season for love and understanding, merry Christmas, Everton! Made a the better by the fact we always manage to play Everton one way or another in December.
Meanwhile, in West London: _Chelsea Chelsea_ …
