A significant number of drinks is the main factor. That causes you to be the annoying twat that doesn't shut up and if you shout it at enough people it just carries on.
That's how I got my greatest achievement at the checkatrade of 'inventing' "we're going down, who gives a fuck, we're Coventry City and we won the cup"
But still felt it right to post it on a public forum....Funnily enough one of my mates attempts at starting ‘David James is a murderer’ not long after he’d been acquitted for his part in a tragic car crash didn’t take off.
Not his finest moment I’m not going to lie.
Yeah I find it a bit disappointing that (largely) our supporters don't adopt a quick witty chant that suits the occasion and stick instead to the three known and trusted.
To be fair, match day or otherwise it's only gonna be the very, very few that will take a little time out to come up with something new or even conjure something up to fit the immediate situation. Which is a little baffling as coke, weed and alcohol are normally a great source of inspiration in the studio.
I think the quick, on the spot witty ones are brilliant sometimes. I remember watching us a couple of times at Selhurst Park - I reckon about 10-15 years ago, evening games - one might have been a cup game as well.
They had that keeper Speroni in between the sticks and our fans kept on singing something along the lines of 'your mums washed your pyjamas' or something like that. I thought it was hilarious although was a few beers worse for wear.
Other ones that I like are the ones the insult a clubs location knowing it'll wind their fans up. I remember Bristol Citys making all sorts of gestures when we were singing 'You're just a small town in Cardiff' at them. Couldn't be further from the truth but made me chuckle and made them angry.
Can’t fucking wait to be back in the ground.
Love the picking on GK chants.
Flinders crispy pancakes, Flinders crispy pancakes, la la la la (Away at Hartlepool)
Murphy is his name, Murphy is his name! He stinks of piss, he’s got no mates, Murphy is his name. (away at Scunthorpe)
Also applauding the opposition goalkeeper as he runs towards us and waiting until he claps back to do the wanker sign.
This could go somewhere.Cos I remember
Marcus Hall
Doyler belting the ball
Whelan kicking a wall
And Kasta sliding
Ok we need a full version of this to sing first game back.
Pahahaha....Apologies in advance for this one
We’re coming home
We’re coming home
We’re coming
City’s coming home
Fed up playing our home games on tour
We've seen it all before
Fk off Joy
You’re a whore
Cause SISU made us play home games away
We were always away
They knew that we’d pay
But we’ll remember
Fisher puts it in your dirt
His bell end not so gleamin'
Dry until it hurt
Never stopped him reamin'
I’m not saying I called the Phoenix on the shirt but with the new kit it’s a good coincidenceNot sure if quoted elsewhere…Stolen off FB…. presumably referencing our borrowing of football coming home and being back in Cov
Phoenix on our shirt
FA Cup still gleaming
All these years of hurt……..
you know the rest….
We could do with some new songs but it’s a fine line between tacky and catchy
Some catch on and you think WTF and others just die for no apparent reason!!!
Love it!!! I’m almost regretting having the season ticket on the other side of the ground to Singers corner nowWe’re coming home
We’re coming home
We’re coming
City's coming home
Everyone seems to know the score
They've seen it all before
They just know
They're so sure
That City's gonna throw it away
Gonna blow it away
But I know they can play
'Cause I remember
Phoenix on our shirts
FA Cup still gleaming
All those years of hurt
Never stopped us dreaming
So many jokes, so many sneers
And all those “no ground” jeers
Wear you down
Through the years
But I still see the West End when we won
Gibbo scoring for fun
Ndlovu on a run
And Shnozzy Dancing…
Best I can do to make it scan, and because Ndlovu deserves to be there more than Big Mo IMO, credit to @Covkid1968#
Get it made and on the screens first game back
