Saw this about politically correct football chants. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolo...ders-football-chants-politically-correct.html
Not a chant, but a visual impact. When I lived in NZ in the 70's, apartheid and sport was a major issue. In 1976, the All Blacks toured SA. There was a little protest but not much in a rugby mad country. NZ then decided to reciprocate and SA were to tour the land of the long white cloud. Naturally, that made a difference to the protesters and mass rallies, which turned out to be very violent, took place. At the head of the processions through Wellington where I lived, was a massive banner with H A R T emblazoned across it. Halt All Racist Tours. The very large noisy procession took several minutes to walk past. But about 50 yards behind the main body was a small procession with a very large banner F A R T, For All Racist Tours. Maybe immoral and definitely contentious but certainly amusing in its context.
Haven't read all of these so apologies if already mentioned but I think my favourite was: "We love you Paul McVeigh, And if it's quite alright we love you Paul McVeigh, Despite your lack of height we love you Paul McVeigh, Cross the ball and we've scoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooored." I also remember it being reported that Derby fans, when their team were 6-0 down, started singing "let's pretend we've scored a goal" before going absolutely nuts. I realise it's been done since but that may be where it started. "Did you come on a skateboard?" was also a popular chant at CR when we were in League One.
I loved the chant "does your missus know you're here" sung to Peter Shilton after his crashed his car with his lover on board.
Not quite an original chant but one of my mates mum went to see Reading-Norwich, the game where Mulryne scored a goal where the ball came of the ref's back. My mates mum is a bit posh and when she joined in with the chants of 'who are ya!' She instead shouted 'Who are you?' in a very posh voice!
Another I recall was a few years back when an away team was virtually relegated and quickly went 1-0 down. The Home fans started to chant ' going down, going down, going down ' and the Away fans responded ' So are we, so are we, so are we '
On topic with Ball Boys today - I remember a home game in the late 80's when two of our ball boys had a dust up - cue the Barclay "Ball Boy aggro, Ball Boy aggro Ooo Oooo"
