What's with this "That song is so cringeworthy"
I haven't seen any song mentioned not called cringeworth.
Most of the time its the same old, oh I will go the game sit down, score then I will stand up, then sit straight back down and don't make any noise all game that make this comments.
I mean can anyone tell me a coventry song that's cringeworthy!
I have seen people on this saying,
PUSB is
IN our Coventry homes
twist and shout many more!

Is there a song that isn't cringeworthy.
Just because it doesn't make sense, or has a misplaced word or whatever, when we sung that's why your going down to leicester, ITS FOR A LAUGH

Rant over.

Personally, I enjoyed the "We're only here to see United" sung by a small group of Cov fans at Old Trafford in the cup.

Shame they got shouted down by other Sky Blues supporters

The interbred song is shocking, I dont mind the more traditional ones.

What is wrong with going to the game to watch football anyway?

I'd sing for 90 minutes straight if everyone else would but I'll never sing that interbred chant purely cause it makes our fans look like mongs.

Some fans like to sing some fans like to sit and watch the game both are fine you can do what you want within reason

I used to enjoy singing when I was a bit younger but now I don't tend to do so very often. Don't make me any less of a supporter

I'm into the traditional light hearted chants. Play up Sky Blues is our heritage and In Our Coventry Homes is also good fun.

Your Dad's your Mum however......is the worst chant in existence. All it does is make us look stupid. To be honest, if the options are sing a childish immature and borderline ridiculous chant or sit down and just watch then I'll be getting very comfy in my seat thanks.

If the song is actually half decent I'll join in. If it makes us as a club look idiotic I will not, and will instead say "wait, this is just ridiculous".

I honestly don't see what the infatuation with some of the childish chavvy chants is. They're in really bad taste and we should be thinking of more interesting chants that will get more people involved.

How does the inbred chant go then? Can't say I've heard it.

Nick · Aug 7, 2011

It is worse with grown men finding it hilarious and giving it wanker signs in the CET stand. I have never understood why, nobody can see you?

In a way it does though. If we all didn't sing it would be a strange atmosphere. Would say 15000 people at the ricoh sitting there and not singing be weird?

I'll echo the thoughts of the others. "Yer Mum's Yer Dad" makes us look like idiots. "That's why you're going down" was funny.

Sometimes it's good to sit and watch. Sometimes its good to sing. That's football. Unfortunately, with chant's like the interbred one and the ridiculous Marlon King ones last season alienate the very people you're slagging off for not joining in.

Back at HR you couldn't shut me up at the matches but now, for one there's not really much to sing about and for two, the chants had more substance.

"We all dream of a team of Gary Breens"
"Hadji Chippo Keano"
"He Comes from... "
Even "Do Do Do, Dele Adebola"
"He's got no hair" (a little before my time, granted)

Forward wind and you've got songs that mean the opposite of their intention and jokes about sex offenders.

Gray · Aug 7, 2011

That's why I said its fine to do both

Nick · Aug 7, 2011

Exactly, how harmless was the big mo song or gary breen?

Adam Jones · Aug 7, 2011

The point is that there is more to football than 'banter' along the lines of 'so, I see you boys have travelled all the way from X-location - we'd like you to know that we deem you somehow inferior for this reason, and proclaim you (inexplicably) incestuous, completely oblivious to the irony in our failure to even successfully convey such a sentiment verbally - our only means of doing so - whilst all wearing Wellsbourne Market's finest counterfeit baseball caps'. Some teams actually manage witty rebukes and observations, or focus on supporting the team they've turned out to see, whilst ours humiliate the city thoroughly ever time they open their mouths.
