North Yorkshire.
A few stick out in my mind from over the years, curious to hear what other people have committed to memory.

Djibril Cisse Sunderland's number 9. We only had him for one season but the chant is one of the ones that spring to mind.

Are you watching Fabio? Darren Bent nets a brace or a hattrick (can't remember) against former club Spurs in a hostile match, Bent had been snubbed for the recent England squad so we took aim at Fabio Capello.

Lorik Cana (Sarna) hey hey hey hard as fvck. Another we only had for a single season but gave us good memories.

The one that sadly sticks in my mind was sung by us, including me, at Ayresome Park at the height of the Cleveland child abuse scandal. The whole section sang it, don't pretend you didn't, smashed up seats and fought running battles with Boro before and after the game.

For those who were there I don't need to repeat the chant ...

... for those who weren't, just imagine the most horrible thing possible <laugh>

OK, what about 'PL, PL, PLO' at Exeter for a Tuesday night League Cup match ...

... forty lads in full Arab gear in the Exeter main stand.

FFS man, 350 mile down to Exeter dressed as Lawrence of Arabia <laugh>

We saw them getting off their bus. It had a placard at the front of the bus with a SAFC badge with PLO South Shields branch written underneath

Used to pull match day special duties when I was in the force.
I was always after a steady day, not locking anybody up which was a right pain in the arse.
Anyway two 'derby ' matches stand out for me, having to stand in the Holgate End (home end) watching Billy Hughes scoring twice, my helmet went in the air after the second one went in, took me five minutes to find it,
Second I pulled duty watching the away coaches at West Lane, found a driver in a coach with loads of crates of beer at the back, had five bottles listening to the footy on the bus radio, nice and warm it was Baltic outside, we didn't get many days like that one.
Smug I've probably chased you round the Boro town centre by the sounds of it....happy days indeed.

Not a chant but in that game having come back from 2-0 down to 2-2 Tommy hauser who had come on as a substitute broke through one on one and the keeper saved. Someone behind piped up with just saw tomorrow's headline "Exeter sunk by German sub".

Bit coarse, but 1st season at the SOL, losing 0-1 to Boro

"Stand up if you're 1 nil up....."

to which our fans immediately responded with

"Stand up, if you sh*g your kids....."
