Amongst other chants, Beardsley was simply called Caveman from the terraces.Wasn't there one about Peter Beardsley not being particularly handsome?
We never played Forest when they were at the club. I remember Newcastle fans singing that to them when they played down here thoughRemember us playing QPR away (on TV) and them singing 'about Dion 'he's got a malteser on his head' . Also at Forest, when Chippo and Hadji were playing. Forest fans were singing 'where's your caravan?'
I read the other day that the Chelsea fans used to make a hissing noise towards the Tottenham fans referring to the German gas chambers.
Thats just a new level of cuntishness.

Was it when we had Freddie Eastwood ? That would make sense of the chant...Definitely happened at Forest - I remember being at the game but I distinctly remember thinking I had not made / heard the connection between Moroccans and gypsies). I'm off to try and revisit the game via one of my CCFC books to see if I can research the game. Was definitely at Forest, was definitely 'where's your caravan?' Had thought it was Chippo/Hadji, as they had longer hair, but your observation has unsettled me !! Can't think who else it might have been aimed at (didn't think it was Safri).

West ham did it at Highfield RoadCan't say no, and it makes sense - except that I have a strong (if wrong!) association with it being aimed at the Moroccan (s)?!?!
If i can't resolve this, I may have to register on the Forest forum to ask for 'help' ?!

Safri played too if you want a two Moroccan quotaChippo did play at Forest in the first year after relegation actually
We also had a Tunisian player around that time, can't remember his nameSafri played too if you want a two Moroccan quota
Ah that's it, I knew it was a North African countryCan’t remember a Tunisian but we had an Algerian on loan in 2003. Wiki says he went to play at AFCON against the clubs wishes!

There was a song about it too - to the tune of 'singing the blues'I read the other day that the Chelsea fans used to make a hissing noise towards the Tottenham fans referring to the German gas chambers.

They used to sing "Spurs are on their way to Auschwitz" in the 90sThere was a song about it too - to the tune of 'singing the blues'
Times have changed thank goodness
Classless bunch as are NewcastleI read the other day that the Chelsea fans used to make a hissing noise towards the Tottenham fans referring to the German gas chambers.

Two likes for Fernando.Chippo did play at Forest in the first year after relegation actually
Well that defines enough for a caravan I guess.Safri played too if you want a two Moroccan quota
I have a problem with it too. Save it for the noncesThe sex offender chant smacks of stupidity. Someone basically realised bender and offender rhyme. I cringe when I hear it purely because it makes zero fucking sense.
Youffat Bastard?We also had a Tunisian player around that time, can't remember his name
In the west end against west brom and even back then I found "Regis Regis gimme that banana" repulsive
Bet they weren't singing it a few years later when he was one of our greatest ever

I remember that one. It was a scary place up there too.I think a lot of us had a bang on that one back in the day - Same as, not proud of my contribution.
I remember, the late 1980's and a trip up to Ayresome Park, around the the time of the 'Cleveland child sex case scandal'.
A lot of kids were taken into care as a consequence of allegations.
We were already getting dogs loads of abuse from the locals when some bright spark decided to chime this one up:
"Where's yer children gone, where's yer children gone"?
It was definately Newcastle fans who sang where's your caravan at Chippo and Hadji.
Quasimodo?Wasn't there one about Peter Beardsley not being particularly handsome?
