Songs for Liverpool.. "Its never our fault"

[Tyrone Biggums]

I never understood why some stupid fans seem to think all clubs have to have some big bad rivalry or negative banter towards each other.

Sure you have more traditional rivals which that will happen no matter what.

But why can't there also be clubs which fans have a lot of good will towards each other?

We have it with Plymouth and a few other clubs, why not Liverpool if the chance is there to have a great time involving both sets of fans?

I know I would enjoy it more if we managed to sing songs about our team rather than pathetic efforts about the opposition.

This.

No, it is the reply that agrees with you. There is my friend, a difference. I dont know where you have been but Brighton have always sung songs that have a dig at the other fans, like "There's ASBO's there" at Millwall, "You'll never fill your ground" at Palace, "The Hovis theme tune" at Huddersfield, "Peter Beale's" at West Ham. In return we get stuff thrown back at us. A part of our culture is never ceased at being amused at ourselves and you if dont get that then let others be different to you.

You forgot to include "Sheep Shaggers, la la la. Sheep Shaggers la lal la" which I'm sure you find highly amusing.

To true, Some of the fairest supporters in the country. I was up there in 83 when we knocked them out of the FA cup. After the team came and applauded us Jimmy Mellia beckoned the players to go to the Kop end where they received the applause from them too, some of the Kop even chanting “Seagulls”

That's not my memory. Melia tried to get the Albion players to go to the Kop but only he wanted to, and they gave him the bird!

They can be fair fans, I agree, they have a history of applauding away goalies at the start of the second half and again at the end if they have played very well.

Let's concentrate on making a huge noise and not get sucked into the scouse agenda. 6,000 fans singing together should be the aim, which means new/daft songs are not appropriate.

Wow thats brilliant, I bet they've never heard it before and it will really cut to their hearts.

I just hope they don't sing anything equally clever and witty back such as 'Does your boyfriend know your here?' or that would really get to me.

For the third time (some of you should really read the whole post) i know its not original i said that in my post. But then again our songs about Buckley and CMS are to the same tune as Liverpool's songs about Maxi and Suarez.

I was in the away end for the cup game against Liverpool and the one thing I noticed was the only songs they sang were about Liverpool ... although it got a bit boring after a while singing the same songs over and over again.

The OP made the fatal error of suggesting a chant ahead of a match on NSC.

Hence, it will never happen.

For the umpteenth time-that song is as cringeworthy as all of the homophobic shit we get. Personally, I think we'll have more impact on The Albion by supporting them for a noisy 90 minutes rather than dig up an old insult from the 80's, aimed at the opposing fans, that is neither original or witty. Not even the Mancs use that one anymore.

To the 80’s Disco Anthem by Ottowan

Hands up, Evra hands up
Give me your hand Louis, give me your hand Louis Louis

Oh, that's good. Very good.

I find the whole Buckley song "cringeworthy". We nicked it off of Liverpool who sung Maxi's name to the tune. We then sung Bennett's name to the tune. Well done us for being so original. The songs becoming like a family hand-me-down.

 

[El Presidente]

I will be OUTRAGED if we have anything other than 90 minutes of "Stand up/sit down if you hate Palace"

 

[matthew]

Defo sing this, will spice up the atmosphere especially if we're losing

 

[METALMICKY]

Am looking forward to singing this:-

Sign on, Sign on,
With a pen in your hand
and you'll never work again,
you'll never work again.

Hardly original i know but always makes me chuckle. I've waited years supporting the Albion to go mix it with the big boys of English football. So lets bring some banter and as many balloons as we like and have a cracking day out. Its Liverpool away in the Fifth round of the FA cup.

So mass unemployment is restricted to Liverpool then and perhaps you think being out of work is a giggle. Having just been made redundant after 28 years I won't be joining you in a song that has an undertone that is more than banter. If you want to sing that I hope you are not one of those that gets all precious about the gay chants.

Yes its very tired, but the Harkn now hear the Brighton sing".. boxing day chant is a timeless classic, as is "over land and sea, and palace"

But I bet Buckley loves it, which is why we sing it, to show our appreciation

We've got Craig Nooney
He used to build Gerrard's roofy
Build Gerrard's rooooooofy
He used to build Gerrard's roofy

Hat, coat, gone.

Sorry to hear of your redundancy. But after 28 years in the same company i hope the redundancy package would be more than adequate while you find new employment.

I remember singing that song at the New Den when we lost 2-0 to Millwall in the 04/05 season.

No i don't get all "precious" about the gay chanting. Its banter, pure and simple.

There are over 70,000 people in Liverpool that have been claiming the dole for more than 10 consecutive years

Who wouldn't love 20k people at the Amex cheering your name. I think the point most people are trying to make in this thread is about the originality of football songs. Take them or leave them. Just sing the ones you like.

This thread is perfect example of why I don't come on this forum anymore. f***ing pathetic.

That is a good example to follow-I spend too much time on here anyway.
