SaintJc Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 Great win, finishing was clinical. Now... I watched the game on telly with the other 5k who stayed away, all you could hear was anti-pompey songs the whole game. I never realised how obsessed we are with them. Can we not sing about our own team anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrollman no2 Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 We were also signing a lot of songs about Leeds (dirty Leeds,dirty Leeds) and a lot of Southampton songs as well. Perhaps that was filtered out on the telly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Balls Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 lol shut up. We sang just as many anti pompey as always. We had far more pro Saints. Why try and make a negitive out of nothing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Without a Halo Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 I note Poor old pompey thought there was a 4 sub rule rather than 5 (or maybe they just cant count) as they could only name 4 Hope they have some bloody good physios (oh sorry forgot they cant afford them and have to rely on a boy scout medical kit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap, it was incessant, dirty skate bastards, we're coming for you, over and over ad nauseum. Unless of course Sky were dubbing over the other songs. Maybe it was only one part of the ground or something, but on TV it was quite clear, over and over. Quite embarrassing, spoiled what was otherwise a near perfect day. We really need to get over the fecking skates, we have bigger fish to fry than to be obsessed with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 There was a fair bit of skate-bashing, but when was there ever not? I dont recall anyone complaining towards the end of last season when there was roughly equal "we are going up", "the saints are going up", and "pompey here we come, pompey pompey here we come"... There were plenty of others anyway, "three nil to the southerners", "who the f*ck are leeds utd" and so on, plus of course the Markus songs.

wessex saint Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 I read this thread before watching the game back on sky + and decided to do a quick tally... so far 43 mins in... more positive songs (OWTS/ Lallana etc) than anti Pompey. Didn't count at the time cos I was just busy joining in with whatever songs came our way trying to drown out 'We all love Leeds'. BTW every3rd song at Old Trafford is either anti |City/Liverpool/ Leeds. And let's be honest.. they're the loudest and most original away fans we've ever heard at St Mary's...

Dr Who? Posted 6 August, 2011 Share Posted 6 August, 2011 We want to be back above them, we have been behind them for 7 years. I think that we did sing this song a lot, but it is a very loud and impressive song to sing. We sung many other songs and it was cracking today, all round I could not complain about anything!! FANTASTIC DAY.......even the programme!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mao Cap Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 I have got irritated in the past about anti-skate songs being all that's sung, but today they only comprised roughly a quarter of all songs and chants, which is fine. Couldn't give a toss whether other fans think we sing about Pompey too much. Within limits I enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceandfriendly Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 I watched online and you could definitely hear the usual array of pro Saints songs. The atmosphere sounded great and I wish I could have been there. There are always going to be anti Skate songs, just like there are always anti Saints songs at Nottarf, but to say there were more anti Skate songs yesterday than there were pro Saints is odd 'cause even I could tell that wasn't the case. Some people just love to whinge and moan. "It ruined my day"... oh for goodness sake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammysaint Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 i think we need to use songs that were short simple and loud as we had to out sing leeds fans who were singing at one point for about 5-10 mins we love leeds thats why.. but owts was blasted out even from the chapel at one point.

Stoozer Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 I was at the game today. I did think there was a lot of anti-Pompey chants. I don't mind them but would prefer we sang less about Pompey to be honest (especially when we're not playing them). Each to their own I suppose. Do the Skates sing about us as much as we do about them? At the dnd if the day though, I would rather than a sing/chanting crowd than a quiet one.

Kingsbridge Saint Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 Personally I enjoyed the Pompey chant. I don't think anyone much else really knows who the 'Skates' are anyway. So its sort of personal to them. Given how they have dragged the national game through the dirt and flicked the V's at everyone I really hope their stinking cesspit of a club and their mong bell ringing supporters get stuffed out of sight when we meet them this season. Does no harm to remind them that they will get their comeuppance and who better to do it than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobM Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 I'm usually on the side of those who don't like the Pompey songs, but yesterday it was spot-on. For the first time in a while we're in the same league, we're clearly the better of the two teams and there is absolutely no reason to think we wont play them and win, easily. Given they are our dearest of all enemies, they have been more than happy to remind us when they were on top, calling them out just felt right.

I have supported Saints since God was a child and I live in Aus/NZ/USA/Ireland etc etc and can't go to a game and therefore my opinion doesn't count? Get real ffs! He has as much right to comment on Saints as anyone that goes to every home and away game, buys 50 items a year from the club shop, takes his match day prog' to bed with him/her all week! I detest Saints fans singing about Pompey (what the **** have they got to do with us?) but accept that it will be sung at our games. I don't think about Pompey all year long until we play them! I don't even bother to look for them in the table. Sadly, some of you need to have something in your lives to hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
