Is the saints song going to change now that we had been to that **** hole? It used to be: We're coming for you, you dirty skate bastards, we're coming for you! Possible new version: We're waiting for you. you dirty skate bastards, we're waiting for you? What do you think? Since we are waiting for them at st marys.
That slightly edited version although correct in many senses sounds a bit like we have nothing better to do with our time than sit about waiting for skates? I think pompeys version (which i shant repeat) was pretty nasty really. Their clearly quite a simple bunch on mass and take the whole rivalry thing too far. There's more to life. Your article did make me laugh a bit though. The best way to piss portsmouth off would be to win the championship.
Shouldn't change it, that is what the Pompey fans were signing up to the fixture and tbh I thought it was quite g*y and pathetic. How original can you get
Yes, I never liked the original song in the first place and found it cringeworthy, i'd rather sing something that celebrates and supports the team rather than obsess over the Skates.
Singing about them when we have about 20 games before is far to flattering. We have much more important teams to be concerned with starting with Palace on Boxing day.
We don't play them again until April. Hopefully we'll have a fair idea by then whether we will have to play them again next season, or, indeed ever. If that's the case, we should be singing about going up to the Prem etc. Anyway, that song uses the same tune as a lot of our other songs.
What was the Portsmouth version? As far as I can recall it was the same except "You dirty scummmer bastards, we're waiting for you?" How's that any worse than what you chanted? Yes, and how many teams sing when the saints go marching in? And since when was originality a prerequisite in a chant?
its very imaginative. Its almost as clever as their one that go's 'he made me feel sick so i hit him with a brick and now he dont sing anymore. He's only a poor little scummer... ' The wit of the average pompey fan never ceases to amuse!
I don't recall hearing that tbh. And as for the hit scummers with a brick chant (which I do think is a rubbish chant), I seem to recall someone saying you have a chant about shooting Portsmouth fans. Don't act as if you never chant anything offensive.
Think that's called selective hearing! it was sang! without doubt! genuine hatred and i think it was a bit over the top.
