Funniest song I ever heard was in a game against Tranmere Rovers at Oakwell. They had a striker called Eugene Dadi. He committed a foul in the first half for which he received a yellow card. In the second half he again fouled a Reds player and quite rightly got his marching orders. As he trudged off towards the tunnel quick as a flash Reds fans in the Ponty end struck up a chorus of the " Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep" classic " Where's your Daddy gone.?" I swear to the God I nearly piss*d myself. Absolute quality.
Against Chelsea at home in premier losing 1-6, Chelsea fans started singing, it's just like watching Grange Hill, funny and painful at same time Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
In one game we played ( can't remember it was) we were really bad 1 to 11. Our fans struck up the chant " Ryhill, it's just like watching Ryhill."
Bang on 27th August 1997 with a crowd of 18,170. Gianluca Vialli 4, Gus Poyet and Dan Petrescu. Watching through open fingers up to my eyes every time they attacked us. Remember Zola and Wise dominated midfield.
A universal one from back in the day was "here we go, here we go, here we go!", accompanied by the little air punching dance after a team had scored.
The prize for the wittiest song must go to our North Derbyshire friends, from the away game at Chesterfield circa 1970. "If you're gonna kill a miner clap your hands" I think our response was "We're going home by f***ing ambulance" but can't be certain we sang it at that game.
I was working in Hong Kong at the time. Saw the match at the HKFC - I had my Barnsley shirt on, and there was a crowd of Chelsea expat supporters - so it wasn't the best of nights....
