    I had a flashback earlier from Watford away in 2008 just after the heartbreak at Wembley, when we were singing "f*** the cup, we're 3-0 up!" That was a great chant I thought. It felt like we were looking on the bright side and ultimately of course we did survive to fight another day in the Championship.

    Also, the time we chanted "Champions!" at Arsenal at home in the Prem and they all applauded us. That was another time when it felt nice to be a supporter, despite the impending relegation.

    So what are your favourite chants/songs you've heard or participated in as a Barnsley supporter?

    A game that was mentioned on here a few days ago. Last home game of the 80/81 season v Newport County. We'd won promotion. Glavin had 21 goals under his belt and was widely touted to be leaving. Constant chanting of "Ronnie, Ronnie, stay with us, Ronnie, stay with us." He hit three more that day and stayed. Crowd 15500.
    Season before at Hull away, first season back in Div 3. We were starting to find our feet and took a big following. We never stopped singing. Won 2-0. Always remember "We are Barnsley, super Barnsley from Oakwell"
    Neither particularly original or witty chants, it's just the circumstances and the atmosphere that spurred my memory.

    I remember the Watford one.

    The let's all have a disco and Bobby song were great.

    Some cracking jovial derogatory ones at Blackpool but I'm sure other fans sing those too.

    'Sing when you're whelking' I once started and it went on for ages.

    True, and we were usually in the process of battering Rotherham as we sang it! :) The Ronnie Moore song, that is.

    I have a soft spot for the sarcastic "Rory, Rory, ra ra ra" chant to Rory Fallon at Swindon (he was playing for Swindon).

    He flagged the tarn fans off for it and got booked which made it even better.
