The Kraken Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 "We're by far the greatest team the world has ever seen." We really aren't.
Griffo Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 "Na na na na na na na, **** off!" That coupled with the giggling that everyone does after they've sung it.
Essruu Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 'Red Army' - if someone asked you what colour Saints play in, you would say "red & white" not "red". Idiots. 'Southampton Til I Die' - boring, copycat generic song, sung mainly by the Skates and Northern Monkey clubs. 'OWTSGMI' when it's sung too fast and also when it's started from "I wanna be in that number", because that just encourages it to be sung fast-paced and is finished before half a chorus is sung. Slow it down and start from "Ohhhh when The Saints..." or don't bother. 'There's only one [pick a player]' or, even worse: 'Do, do, do, doo... [any player]' - complete lack of imagination.
ant Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 I imagine that all of them p*ss off at least one person, probably easier just to write out everything that's sung! There's definitely a couple that grate on me but I do my best to remain magnanimous and ignore those. The worst 'songs' will die out eventually, yeah?!
Hatch Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 'Easy , Easy' Although , that is very rarely sung at Saints games.
Saint Stimp Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 Let's all have a disco, let's all have a disco.. **** off.
The Kraken Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 Playing against Birmingham, and the chorus of "Small town in Villa, you're just a small town in Villa" went up. I think that signalled the end of my Northam days. Apparently it was also repeated when playing against Man United with "Small town in City.....".
fish fingers Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 "We're the Northam", "we're the Kingsland" etc. and then the idiots that applaud the other stand for singing their part.
SaintNeil90 Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 ei ei ei o b*llocks. another northern monkey chant.
SaintNeil90 Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 I don't like any-anti pompey songs while we've been below them. Rather ignore the scummy little non-club now anyway. I don't want to beat them, I don't want to play them, I don't want them being any part of professional football. anything....you're having a laugh is embarassing, especially against Blackpool. Although I hope we bring out as many songs to wind up Holloway as much as possible. What an ungracious hyprocritical uptight little ****tard. You've got issues and I think you're taking the rivalry a little too far. I enjoy picking fun at them and beating them, as they do us, I would certainly not wish them to go out of business.
revolution saint Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 OWTSGMI - I know it's considered heresy but I really do find it a turgid song. And just to wind people up even more I find it even more annoying when it's sung really slowly - it's like something at a funeral. I suspect I'm in a minority of one on this but I do find it annoying.
bigchrisy Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 we're the northam, followed by a slight whisper in return from the chapel/kingsland/itchen...
Saint Mikey Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 OWTSGMI - I know it's considered heresy but I really do find it a turgid song. And just to wind people up even more I find it even more annoying when it's sung really slowly - it's like something at a funeral. I suspect I'm in a minority of one on this but I do find it annoying. Personally, I'm disgusted with this comment. This song is our heritage. Markus even liked singing that song. I suggest you have a good look at yourself, we don't need fans like you.
Gemmel Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 "We're by far the greatest team the world has ever seen." We really aren't. Yes we are you idiot
Stattmeister Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 One of my favourites was when we played Bristol Rovers, and select members of the crowd sung "You're just a small Town in City". Genius.
LGTL Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 (edited) Considering the lack of support for any new, decent song at an away day, perhaps this thread will entice more to think of something original and or join in? For the record, I don't like "we do what we want" although the "don't care about you" was amusing, especially at Bournemouth. I doubt either of those two will be used this season though.

anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 One of my favourites was when we played Bristol Rovers, and select members of the crowd sung "You're just a small Town in City". Genius. If there is one song I never sing it is this one. Not only boring and been overdone for years but also it doesn't make sense. How can you have a town in a town/city? You can't.
kwsaint Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 the referee's a w****r. although they do sometimes make mistakes it seems unreasonable to label him one because of it.

"We don't care about you" was decent at Bournemouth because it shut them up and put them in their place, but then for some reason it was sung at games after Bournemouth away by some absolute mongs.
Danny R Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 The fact that all the below have the same tune (out of tune Sloop John B) is a bit shi-te: - We've got Sterney John etc. - He's always offside etc. - He plays on the left etc. - He robs from the Skates etc. - He's back from the dead etc - We dont care about you etc. - We're coming for you etc.
dune Posted 25 July, 2011 Author Posted 25 July, 2011 I remember us singing "you're not very good" up at Anfield after a 1-1 draw. A really cheesy song, but at the time it was funny.
70's Mike Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 give it to Ron , Give it to Ron, on his head, on his head We got Tommy Tommy Tommy Jenkins on the wing Bless em all , Bless em all, Ron Davies, Fred Kemp and Frank Saul I cann't read and I cann't write Six foot 2 , eyes of blue, Jimmy Steele is after you
Tomobz Posted 25 July, 2011 Posted 25 July, 2011 bearing in mind that any new song doesn't catch on and 99% of the support don't know the words to the older classics, then you better start dealing with these songs being the only ones in our hymn book

Golden Balls Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 Not a chant, but when they play music after a goal
The9 Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 ei ei ei o b*llocks. another northern monkey chant. I used to sing that at Newport County in the 1970s, does that count as northern ?
The9 Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 Not a chant, but when they play music after a goal I wrote a letter to the club about that, timing wasn't great, we went into administration the day after...
revolution saint Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 OK You've got me in two minds here. If that was intended as ironic humour then If it wasn't then Nope, I'm serious - I really don't like it. It's just an opinion and probably not a widely shared one but there you go.
Wurzel Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 Nope, I'm serious - I really don't like it. It's just an opinion and probably not a widely shared one but there you go. My point wasn't whether you like it or not, it was the fact that it IS a funeral tune.
Prince Jazzbo Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 I've never been too keen on the 'let him die' chant when a player has been injured. We've never really had the imagination of the scousers and the mancs on the song front. Back in the 70's and 80s we seemed to have a far better reportoire than we do now
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 ei ei ei o b*llocks. another northern monkey chant. This is the only one that really ****es me off. Can't ****ing stand it.
CitySaint Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 So between everyone here, we hate every song going. Well Done all !

JustMike Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 I wish we could get Woolston Ferry going isnt there a bridge in the way now?
Saint Charlie Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 Come on you reds last season when we played in white.
pittdogg Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 "We're by far the greatest team the world has ever seen." We really aren't. i allways sing we are by far the best team "league 1" has ever seen, the past to seasons
Lord Duckhunter Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 We do seem to copy others chants/Songs, The Lambert one being a prime example. We also seem to have let Stoke and Spurs take OWTS off of us. A concerted effort is needed to get that back, because it used to boom round The Dell. Forget the politics, but the Swing Lowe was good, original and quite clever bearing in mind the Woodward/rugby link.
Turkish Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 The Cortese song is one of the worst and most embarassing songs i have ever heard. I also hate "sit down shut up" A few of us had a rendition of "i wanna be SFC" in the Alex after the Wallsall game, to the tune of the Sex Pistols Anarchy in the UK, think that would sound really good.
forever a red and white Posted 26 July, 2011 Posted 26 July, 2011 I wrote a letter to the club about that, timing wasn't great, we went into administration the day after... funny. But the music afte goals is very very annoying
