Arizona Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 You fat b*stard!!!!! I know we often aim that one at goalies, but I loved taking it to another level today. I think we got to him too as he started putting goal kicks out into touch in his own half. Those that stayed in were headed straight back by Jaidi. Just thought it deserved it's own thread, great entertainment.
Saint_Jonny Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Yeah it was like being at a comedy show during the first half, great fun!
Saintandy666 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 His hands were massive But yer, he started getting angry. Looked like he was shouting at people not moving for him... no, your kicks were just ****!
Amazingstoke Saint Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 He was so wound up when he was trotting across to try and take a free kick in front of Block 34 he stuck his tongue out! I've never seen a player's confidence crumble so visibly because the crowd were on his back - but he recovered well. Still well dodgy though!
Saintandy666 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Just shows that the crowd can influence the game sometimes.
Smirking_Saint Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 I honestly think he went in at half time for a cry and a cuddle. 20 thousand people taking the p*ss. And rightly so, he was shocking
ericofarabia Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 I honestly think he went in at half time for a cry and a cuddle. 20 thousand people taking the p*ss. And rightly so, he was shocking Imagine if he'd been an ex skate to boot ...
Smirking_Saint Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Imagine if he'd been an ex skate to boot ... Lol, that would have been too much. I would have had a stroke just imagining the insults
Manuel Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Was he fat then? It seems to be the default goalie chant no matter what their size, anybody know the origin?
Arizona Posted 24 October, 2009 Author Posted 24 October, 2009 Was he fat then? It seems to be the default goalie chant no matter what their size, anybody know the origin? Not really. I think we might have given him anorexia now though.
Jonnyboy Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Yeah that was realy good fun, glad I made it today He was a little chunky but still vastly better shape than most of us lot ;-)
Legod Third Coming Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Loved it when he stuck his tongue out at us!!! And then when he and their gingernob had a row about one of his kicks. Priceless subplot to a great game!
St Landrew Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 OK, this is aimed at a former pompey keeper, but the song is just the same:
Iowsaintsfan Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 OK, this is aimed at a former pompey keeper, but the song is just the same: wasnt that at Dean Kiely (sp) who was at pompey for a month or two?
1960saint Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 OK, this is aimed at a former pompey keeper, but the song is just the same: had a good laugh at the 'harry redface , got any skate' clip .check it out
RedAndWhite91 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Was well funny winding him up; it obviously got to him!!
saintwarwick Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Just shows that the crowd can influence the game sometimes. Yep and we should do it every game
Block 18 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Was he fat then? It seems to be the default goalie chant no matter what their size, anybody know the origin? Could well have been aimed at Nevil Southall in his latter years
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Was he fat then? It seems to be the default goalie chant no matter what their size, anybody know the origin? First sung to Budgie all those years ago?
saintchris23 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 I'm fed up of you lot singing " you fat b@stard!". Clearly, when the majority of goalies are no longer pie eaters, surely it's better to sing; "ohhhhh....you're sh!t ahhhhhhhh......ohhhh ahhhh" Much better in opinion. And while I'm at it, STOP singing "we're by far the greatest team the WORLD has ever seen". It's clearly b0110cks. How about being original and sing; "We're by far the greatest team LEAGUE ONE has ever seen". Not difficult now is it? Rant over.

CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 I don't generally think the crowd can influence the game to a great extent but the stick we gave the keeper today did seem to get to him , it was great fun even if it didn't .
Manuel Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 I'm fed up of you lot singing " you fat b@stard!".

How about being original and sing; "We're by far the greatest team LEAGUE ONE has ever seen". Not difficult now is it? Rant over. Three good suggestions. Also "There's only one Alan Pardew" is factually incorrect as a quick Google search will confirm. I actually do agree with your suggestions though.
The9 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 The "you fat bastard" chant has been going since at least the early 80s and peaked well before 1987. It would be nice to come up against a proper fatty for once, half of them are muscled but thin now. At least this one was a bit chunky.
saintchris23 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 Mong What a well thought out, reasoned reply. Conversations with you must be enthralling!

It would be nice to come up against a proper fatty for once, half of them are muscled but thin now. At least this one was a bit chunky. And in fact we never all were living in a Kevin Davies wonderland at that time I was actually living in Chandlers Ford just south of the Kevin Davies wonderland. I also have some doubts Kelvin Davis is in fact super as he is yet to save someone from a burning building. I was never given a pompey fan on a string.....that too i'm afraid is a lie.

"We're by far the greatest team LEAGUE ONE has ever seen" wouldn't sound at all crap would it...
Smirking_Saint Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 What a well thought out, reasoned reply. Conversations with you must be enthralling! TBH it was to some up my thoughts in one simple word. Better then talking complete boll*cks.

It would be nice to come up against a proper fatty for once, half of them are muscled but thin now. At least this one was a bit chunky. I remember hearing/singing that at Hearts/Scottish matches in the 80s - Who ate all the pies? Who ate all the pies? You fat bastard you fat bastard YOU ate all the pies!!
Bailey Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 The MK Dons keeper was very poor today. The crowd clearly got to him and he bottled it massively. Just goes to show how the Northam can influence a game!
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 Was pretty evident that our stick affected his game today, a good laugh and a helping hand to our Players. Anyone who was at Stockport earlier in the season may remember the stick we were giving to their keeper, which also affected his game. Although there weren't as many of us there, being so close to the pitch you could really get your message across. That day we were only shouting 'Fon' (keepers name is Fon Williams) but he aso started kicking the ball into touch. Good times.
niceandfriendly Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 What a well thought out, reasoned reply. Conversations with you must be enthralling! He was right though.

After 1 of his mis kicks into touch I seem to remember we were singing Fonzie for England (even though he is Welsh!!) and he turned around and gave us a big grin and a round of applause.
NickG Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 wonder how many league 1 players have played infront of 21,000 before?
ericofarabia Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 Tommy Lawrence the ex Liverpool keeper from the 60 / 70's was affectionally known by his home fans as The Flying Pig He defied gravity hurling his 14st frame around to make numerous saves, although to be honest if he just stood still there was very little of the goal left uncovered
The Godfather Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 wonder how many league 1 players have played infront of 21,000 before? A few in the last couple of seasons playing at Leeds, and when Man City were down their for a season a few years back.
RonManager Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 wonder how many league 1 players have played infront of 21,000 before? I used my 'extra hour' this morning to have a quick ring round, and apparently they all have.
MorningtonCrescent Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 The original song (Saints version) was definitely "you're ****-ah.... ooh ahh...." and this would be far better than the blatant lie that is "fat bastard" when they clearly aren't! As for "by far the greatest team" etc.... i've heard the version "Hampshire's ever seen" sung a few times and both make me grin.....
Rory Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 Kevin Pressman was my favourite chubber. Pure lard.
Genk Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 The original song (Saints version) was definitely "you're ****-ah.... ooh ahh...." and this would be far better than the blatant lie that is "fat bastard" when they clearly aren't! As for "by far the greatest team" etc.... i've heard the version "Hampshire's ever seen" sung a few times and both make me grin..... Much better to shout. I remember Bristol Rovers fans doing it to Kelvin a few games ago. Sounded good
Mao Cap Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 The stick definitely affected his confidence - I reckon his kicks may well have improved after the first couple, but for the crowd winding him up and getting in his head. Nice to feel you made a difference
saint boggy Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 The MK Dons keeper was very poor today. The crowd clearly got to him and he bottled it massively. Just goes to show how the Northam can influence a game! yeh, course!! i forgot that the rest of the ground was shut yesterday!!
SaintDonkey Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 The MK Dons keeper was very poor today. The crowd clearly got to him and he bottled it massively. Just goes to show how the Northam can influence a game! Yes of course the way he kept a clean sheet in front of the Chapel and then conceded three when he was in front of the mighty Northam... Wait what's that? It was the other way round? I'm not so sure that it was the crowd that got to him as much as the Saints team mopping up every clearence he made so he couldn't relax all match.
wessex saint Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 I'm fed up of you lot singing " you fat b@stard!".

How about being original and sing; "We're by far the greatest team LEAGUE ONE has ever seen". Not difficult now is it? Rant over. This is probably the funniest thing I've read on here for a while - hilarious! For a moment i thought it was a serious post. Oh .. and do you mind not singing Oh when the saints go marching in because we don't really march and we certainly don't march in All factually incorrect. Rant over .
wessex saint Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 saintschris23 - could you give me the new lyrics for 'Oh When the Saints' please? Also we can't sing "we're by far the greatest time LEAGUE ONE has ever seen" when we're 3 rd from bottom. ...maybe "we're by far the greatest team that Southampton (and surrounding district) has seen for about 2 years" Not very catchy I grant you but I'm sure you can make it work
Arizona Posted 25 October, 2009 Author Posted 25 October, 2009 How about... Oh when the Saints, play a game of football Oh when the Saints play a game of football I want to be sat in block 34 row Y Oh when the Saints play a game of football.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 Maybe we should just change the words to all the songs so they are factually correct. Here's one: A lot of us follow Southampton Over land, but rarely sea, and not Portsmouth anymore A lot of us follow Southaammpttonnn Onttoo victoryyy, but also draws and losses. All together now Or how about we don't change a thing, yeah, that's a much better option.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 25 October, 2009 Posted 25 October, 2009 How about... Oh when the Saints, play a game of football Oh when the Saints play a game of football I want to be sat in block 34 row Y Oh when the Saints play a game of football. Technically the players haven't been canonized by the Church so you may have to change it to "players contracted to Southampton FC" or something. Otherwise it is not factually correct.
