"there's only one John Oster" ....was a very funny tune back in the day. the 'lee howie song' has been mentioned From the banks of the river We-ee-ar to the shores of tripoli ...i'm gonna fight, fight, fight for Sunderland always gets me in the mood. i remember a very impromptu song at Gillingham away a good few years back, when Kevin Kyle was playing for us and making a (positive) nuisance of himself on the pitch. he gets booked and some lad behind me shouts out "you can't book him ref, he's got a massive cock" ...this gets quite a few laughs, and soon enough theres a fair few belting out several renditions of this as a song, which increased in volume through the match. Kyle figures out what we're singing and turns around to give it the thumbs up. daft stuff/banter like that is why i love going to matches, especially away.
I wonder if any other sets of supporters had different ends of the ground competing against each other. For example 'The Fulwell' 'The Roker'. 'the fulwell' 'the roker'. Or the completely pointless Rangers-Celtic Rangers-Celtic. Were there people at Ibrox or Parkhead shouting Sunland-newcasl?
He's right like, celtic - rangers chant, pointless Sing in the mainstand from the paddox was a corker with a retort of seats! Seats! Seats! With a stomp stomp clap, stomp stomp clap
They were old chants at Roker Park Bri. I never understood the Rangers-Celtic one , how it originated and why it was chanted. The roker and fulwell one was simply different ends of the ground competing against each other for some reason. I must admit I'd never heard of the paddocks and mainstand competing as PDC points out but I'm sure it will be true.
I know about the Roker Chants. was there for the last 10 years. What's this Rangers-Celtic chants? I don't remember them?
There's a circus in the town, Kevin Keegan is a clown, Willie Mac is gonna get the sack, And noocastles gannin down gannin down Oldie but a goodie
Really? They used to be chanted regularly at every home game. Honestly, for what reason I have no idea. PDC can obviously remember them as well. If anyone knows why rangers celtic was chanted perhaps they can post the reason.
Plug yer headphones in and enjoy, the whole journey, condensed [video=youtube;t_P_ivvDhs4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_P_ivvDhs4[/video]
So who did you chant for? Was one end rangers other end celtic? How did this work? I remember the half sunderland half rangers/celtic bobble hats. Never understood that.
It usually started when there was nothing happening on the pitch, just a bit of banter. Someone would shout Rangers and then someone else would shout Celtic depending on who you supported north of the border. Others would join in until eveyone got bored or someone started another song. Madness really.
No it was nothing to do with ends it could even be people standing next to each other one would shour rangers bloke next to him celtic. I think it stopped the day one bloke decided to shout Partick Thistle and from then it was confined to history. It must have been very confusing for the players and the away fans who must have wondered wtfck they shouting that for as were many of the home fans, myself and pdc included.
1 team in Tallinn by the scots fans you,re going to sit by your goalpost to Nev Southall week after his protest at home game
Favourite was the Danny Collins one: For Brazil he should play Danny Collins For BRazil he should play up front For Brazil he should play Danny Collins Danny Collins is a skilful cuuuuuunt !
**** them all **** them all Wyn Davies Pop Robson McFaul We'll never be mastered by Black and White Bastards As Sunderlands the best of them all !!!!!! Couple of politically incorrect ones but some of the loudest chants I have ever heard emanate from the Fulwell. "Oh I'd rather be a P*** than a mag!" "Harry Roberts is our friend!" One of my favourites of all times was .... "Nice one (Insert name of player) Nice one son! Nice one (Insert name of player) Lets have another one!" Which we ripped off the Spuds! But the Spuds ripped off Salman Rushdie for it anyway. "You'll never Walk alone" Before the bindippers claimed it as their sole property.
