The West Terrace in the early 90’s - “Oh, Mark Bosnich, he plays for Aston Villa and he stinks of piss”…
Yeah, goalies used to get some stick in the West End.

"One fatty Rimmer, there's only one Fatty Rimmer". He took it well enough tbf!

I remember in the late 90s we used to sing this to opposing goalkeepers, I have used Mark Crossley as an example.

Crossley is his name
Crossley is his name
He stinks of piss, he's got no friends
Crossley is his name

I remember going to Colchesters old ground in the 00's, we were right up against the pitch, we went 1-0 down and then won 5-1, for the whole of the second half (it felt like) we sang that song to Dean Gerken, I'm sure he wanted to crawl off the pitch and die as each goal went in

Loved the League One title winning season away at Southend Utd. Won 2-0 during a bad storm, O'Hare and Biamou getting the goals, and the Southend keeper getting a rendition of this chant (tailored to their name, of course).

Their keeper got injured and had to be subbed. As the sub runs on towards us to his goal everyone starts chanting "ooooohh" until it reaches a crescendo as he turns around, everyone sees his shirt adorned with the name "Taylor", and everyone starts singing it again but with "Taylor is his name". It was an 18 year old kid from their academy. Pure savagery, actually quality banter.

Except it’s not true. Liverpool served an additional year’s ban


I was responding to the fact that we were banned from Europe because of the Liverpool fans who at the time cause the death of the Juventus fans.

The extra year was just not long enough, should have been another 10 years.

That’s brought back some memories!!!

We were absolutely dog shit first half and never saw the 5-1 coming!!!

Just googled it and it was 2008. Doesn’t seem that long ago!!!

Between 2015 - 2017 Tony Mowbray to League 1 relegation season Three Little Birds was a regular. I used to like that but just seemed to stop by the time the League 2 campaign started.

It was definitely sung during the league 2 season, usually when we were losing at home to dross like Scunthorpe

Who’s the b*stard in the black.
Who needs Cantona when we’ve got Wegerle.
Also that first Sky game v Tottenham live with Sonia miming in the middle of the pitch at halftime with us in the west terrace singing “ you scouse b*stard”
I remember one game at Highfield Road when I was so feckin angry at the ref I shouted you black bastard, got the words mixed should have been bastard in the black, I couldn't apologise enough to people around me, thankfully there were no repercussions and it certainly calmed me down

It was such a minority that comments generally about scousers because of it are pointless. Moreover it was a case of Heysel being the straw that broke the Camel’s back rather than the only incident which caused English fans to be banned

I remember when we used to sing going down, going down, going down, and the opposition used to sing, So are you, so are you, so are you. I worry that one may be making a comeback.

If you say so Jamie Carragher.

I remember Cov fans singing this at Crewe about their winger. Thought it was cringeworthy, damn glad it is a song we don’t sing any more…..
