The Wotsit "chant"


Turkish

Recommended Posts

If its any of you lot Please stop it. We are not short of sh*t song as it is but this really does take us to new depths. A great night for us ruined by the actions of a few. I've never been so embarrassed to be a saints fan.

Was better than "we are top of the league" when actually we are not and at no point where we last night....stupid and pointless chant.

 

That was actually the fault of the divs at Skysports. They had Forest 0-1 up when we were 2-0 up. Unfortunately they failed to see the ref not give the decision. Bastard.

I sung it, and I also shouted you fat wotsit when he took goal kicks, sorry for enjoying myself, I'll make sure I comply to your rules from now on. :rolleyes: :p
What's enjoyable about it? It didn't ruin my night at all, but it is an utterly s**t song, makes our support sound like a bunch of 12 year old dweebs.

the keeper wasn't ginger, he just had an orange kit.

 

can anyone express their feelings in a bit more detail about what they found enjoyable calling him a wotsit? i am genuinely interested in how your minds work.

Though just to be the in-house pedant, until Reading kicked off, as we were already 1 and then 2-0 up, we were in fact top of the league.

 

True, but as someone else has said it was sung after sky sports reported that Reading were losing. I know, as a pathetic armchair fan that couldn't go to the match because I was afraid I might embarass Turkish, so I was listening to Radio Solent , watching sky sports and refreshing on saints web forum and the BBC web site, all at the same time. I heard the chant just after Sky put up the score 0-1 at Reading ...which by the way they did not correct for a long time.

Excuse me, that job is taken.

 

My Facebook status circa 7:49pm was "we're top of the League... until Reading kick off".

 

As for the Wotsit song - don't forget it achieved its peak for Dean Lewington of MK Dons when Michail Antonio was taking him apart. Bogdan of Bolton got it at the League Cup match too, he's a proper wotsit, hair and shirt combo. There was something about a banana when we played Exeter too, IIRC. Should really be for gingers not just orange kit wearers IMHO, not that I care much.

Loved the Wotsit chant last night, we kept changing it to fish finger, scampi fry & goldfish. At one point Jeremy pee'd his pants when I said he looked like a giant cheese puff.

 

As hard as I tried I just couldn't fit the phrase "you look like a 500ml bottle of orange Lucozade" into the song. That ruined my evening.

I'm sorry but when was anything about following a football team mature? Is it mature to sing songs about made up stories of shooting pompey fans and following it with WE HATE POMPEY, WE HATE POMPEY. The beauty of following a football team is that it is so ****ing immature. A bunch on grown up men shouting their heads of and hugging each other... In what other situation is that deemed acceptable behaviour?

 

He was wearing an orange kit. Hence some people wanted him to feel insecure about this in a mildly humourous way. And I bet it changed his mindset somewhat. Feeling like actually I do look a bit of a prat. Anything to put the opposition at a disadvantage no matter how slight.

 

Get off your ****ing high horse. Football is a modern game supported by people from a massive demographic. Football away days aren't like scenes from Green Street no matter how much you wish they were. Remember you praising Millwall's support earlier in the season. Would love to see you justify that to the mothers and fathers who's kids were being spat on and having coins thrown at whilst waiting to go over the footbridge.

 

Reassess your attitude to what consitutes support because your ideologies are outdated and quite frankly far more embarrassing than telling a goalkeeper in an orange kit that he looks like a wotsit.

He makes a fair point.

Whoever the **** was who started "we're top of the league" owes me for the cost of 2 mobile calls home, plus it ****ed Mrs Duck off when I was shouting at her "put Sky Sports news on, what's the Reading score". Before giving up and calling my mate, only to be told 0-0.

 

I thought the Wotsit chant was quite funny, but I wouldn't have laughed if I realised I wasn't meant to, and that made me "uncool".

As noted, we were top of the League between scoring and 8pm when Reading kicked off. It took Sky a good couple of minutes to get the score sorted onscreen, they had it wrong for 2 reports from Dowie, even though the first one was him describing Reading having a goal disallowed and he never mentioned Forest scoring at all.

 

If you want to know what "no life" looks like, I rewound Sky Sports News at half time to work out what had happened, because I was listening to Solent with Sky volume turned off.

No he doesn't.

 

For as much as people are allowed to chant what they want then other people are allowed to express an opinion on it. Were people being beaten up for singing it, no; are people commenting on it on a message board, yes. Where does the leap of not liking a chant to being a holligan come from and the kids bit at Millwall is a joke. Its De-fence that needs to get of his high horse.

I think "anything to put the opposition at a disadvantage" is a fair point as is "it's all immature", in amongst all the other stuff of varying accuracy.

 

The leap comes from seeing certain people's attitudes to basically every aspect of football supporting all harkening back to being thugs and acting like socially retarded idiots.

I think the truth of the matter is that Turkish has a brand new bright orange polo shirt that he has been dying to wear but is worried about the chants. Sour Mash has got his knickers in a twist over it as well, as there is nothing he enjoys seeing more on a Saturday afternoon than Turkish in a tight fitting polo shirt.

 

Please stop the chant!

Think you might be getting a bit obsessed lad. Try a couple of posts without mentioning us if you can.

Regardless of who started this thread, do you think this is a good song to sing at a game or not? Do you actually think it would affect their keeper in anyway?

 

I think you'll find that some people do and some people don't. The people that sung it obviously do, the people that are moaning obviously don't. I hate Coldplay but they seem to sell a lot of songs and some people like them. Then again people voted for the Nazis, people can't be trusted mate.

I had never heard it before so for me yea I thought it was quite funny. My sides weren't splitting but I chuckled at it. Went with my brother in law who hasn't been to many football matches and he found it funny too. After I left the ground that was it though. Hardly something to write home about.

 

That's why when I came on here and saw people laying into it I was really surprised. Just thought what's the harm. Seeing who started the thread obviously kicked off everything I said about ideologies. Sorry if I did come off a bit strong but I just find this whole dictitorial attitude towards how people support their team so mind-numbingly dull. I'm sorry but we're now one win away from promotion and come on here this morning to read....

 

' A great night for us ruined by the actions of a few. I've never been so embarrassed to be a saints fan.'

 

I mean come on... Really?

 

EDIT: to answer your last point, yea I'm sure his concentration would wane slightly and he would feel less comfortable standing there than he would otherwise. OK it's not going to make him unable to do his job but it may ever so slightly affect his performance. Just to be clear I know that isn't the motivation for singing it, that being a cheap laugh.

is anyone going to explain the joke then? where does calling a goalkeeper a wotsit become comedy rather than sounding like a bunch of giggling kids for calling someone a "funny" name?

 

It isn't comedy, it's sh1t. But when you look around at the people attending matches, there is a range of people from different walks of life but there is also a large amount of giggling kids all hyped up on alcopops and gin stolen from their mothers cupboards. I think they probably love that kind of crap. Who cares? If you don't like it, don't sing it.
