the cortese song

Recommended Posts

I saw someone at Brighton at home last year being chucked out as he launched a stick of celery. He probably got sent down for 6 months and is currently on a 6 year banning order.

 

if you've ever been hit by a stick of celery you'd understand why it is such a serious offence. scum.

The other chants have some element of irony or wit about them. The Cortese chant doesn't have either of those things as far as I can see, unless you'll beg to differ and see something I don't. I don't need to get over it, beyond cringing when some of our fans chant it. But then I accept that our fan base includes all types, some a bit brighter than average, some a bit less bright. And as a clue, IMO it isn't the brighter ones who sing it. ;)

 

Mediocrity is relative. Do we have any vaguely witty or ironic chants (aside from maybe Barney's)? Odd to think that for a such a settled, promotion-winning, recording-breaking side, we're so short of new chants. Guess we just have to wait till united are next in town for inspiration.

for inspiration have a look at FC United on youtube, they have some good ones.

saints struggle singing anything that doesn't involve clapping at a thousand miles an hour.

One of my most hated songs has got to me "i've got a shed, that's bigger than this" it is f*cking abysmal rubbish song that makes me want to lash out at anyone within reach who is singing it
Yep, add that one to the two already mentioned in this thread, then add "Wherever is a s**thole, I want to go home" and you've got a sure fire way of spotting the retards in our support. Always the same cretins singing them as well.

That's the worst offender, especially when its sung only after 2 mins into game on a sunny saturday afternoon at a ground that's within virtual spitting distance.

Its a shame that the Lambert song, our best song for years is ruined by people trying to clap to it at a hundred miles an hour.

 

the same happens to oh when the saints, we've had a couple of cracking slow renditions recently, but too often, especially at home, it descends into super fast clapping where fans start to resemble demented seals

so who sings it?

 

The same ones who were singing, "there's only one Alan Pardew" and renditions of "You don't know what you're doing" over the years.

 

It is cringetastic and when I first heard it at Posh away, it soured quite a pleasant afternoon on the river (some of the other chants that have been mentioned on here are just as bad).

A lot of poseurs on here today, too cool to sing or wear their colours.

 

I like this chant. If its cold and i want to wear my colours I might put them on top of my hoodie. I might tell Connolly he's back from the dead. I might not. I pays for my ticket. I'm cooler than the haters too.

no one has said they are too cool to sing, on the contrary it is people who want the atmosphere to be better by getting rid of the shlt songs sang by people like you while clapping frantically with the restricted movement of having a tight saints shirts draped over the top of your jumper

My shirts not tight thank you. But my crotch is.

Certainly not too cool to sing and enjoy a decent sing song of an afternoon, but I draw the line at wnkktastic songs like the Cortese one (small town in Blankville, Liverpool at United - & vice versa, etc).

 

You'll never make our fan on the board if you don't sing the cortese song Um. He watches out for these things you know. You need to have a rethink about your values sir.

It's like Hymns at junior school, I mouth the words to give the impression some noise is being generated, but it is only for show.

 

I've been up in that control box and can see how far they can zoom in!!!!

you really go to a game in a high-vis jacket and shout pork at someone...?

also, didn't you get a slap last season...?

 

No I don't wear a vis and I am losing count on how many times you are going to bring the incident I had at sms up on here. I got punched, wip f*cking woo. I took it, went and got cleaned up and didn't take it any further.

 

What's wrong with a little bit of banter with the bobby at footy?

 

"We paid for your hats"

"Your coats too big for you"

"do do, do do, do, do.... Pork pork!"

 

If you have a problem with that then i pitty your life. Lighten up a little bit ffs!

This could be the ideal opporunity to get the much requested "wheels on the bus" song going. Are we will be both on Niges bus and literally on a bus. I'll lead the singing at Fratton park with my "i heart Cortese" vest over my hooded top and Saints shirt.

 

This should only be done in mid top silver boots. If your considering anything else you need to have a serious word with yourself.

You still haven't answered this, Scott - i've been wondering for ages why the f*ck you do it.

 

I trust I'm not getting dragged into this. SSOTN is on his own on this one.

While we're on the subject of the police, does anyone know the fan, or are you the fan, that went up to the policeman with the camera last season against Leyton Orient? What was the point in that? I would have thought the game of football that was on offer a few feet behind the policeman involved was more interesting, but more fool me...

Don't know him, but I could see his point. Just another example of how disgustingly football fans are treated by the police with total prejudice.

When we're winning, the atmosphere is buzzing I'll sing along with anything...

 

When the team is playing badly and the atmosphere is crap and the team need lifting...I'll sing along with anything

 

What I won't do is attack or abuse our own players - in the past I've done this to one manager (Branfoot) and one chairman...you guess?

 

I'm a Saints supporter, I'm not too self-image embarrassed to sing anything, however banal, if it adds to the swell of noise getting behind the team and I have the sh*ttest, most tuneless voice in the world.

OK while we're all 'aving a moan...why do Saints fans try and cram too many syllables into songs?

 

"...you dirty skate bastards...we're coming for you", "dirty skate ****s" would have scanned better ;), "...we are Southampton...we're top of the league", "we are Saints" fits easier and "EIEIEIO..............we are Southampton, we are Southampton...such a f'kin mouthfull why not just "we're Southampton". Rant over.

The first two work fine as they are, not sure what you're on about there.

Agree with the third one though...but it's still workable.

Far too sensible an assessment. Where are the personal attacks, the vitriol?

 

You'll be saying it doesn't matter if you wear a shirt over the top of your jumper next. Utter madness.

Yes,in my top 5 as well. Although worse than this is singing local rivals songs like when the mugs sang "Liverpool" when we played Man u and while back and "i'm forever blowing bubbles" against Millwall this season :facepalm:

Indeed!!

 

You only have to consider what you think of the dinlos from opposition teams who sing, "Play Up Pompeii" to get an idea of what you must sound like singing the equivalent of the day.
