It's "I'm a bow legged chicken I'm a knock kneed hen"

And I'm pretty sure our version was closer to the original - "... doing the Brighton wig walk'.

Whatever that is...

Now you mention it, I think it was a bow legged chicken, but really it was all just a lead up to jumping around in a very unruly manner. Happy days.

You sound like a right laugh

Live by the sea ....jesus he sounds more like dead by the sea.

oh i do like to be beside the sea side
oh i do like to beside the sea
with a mallet in me hand
bashing palace in the sand
beside the sea side beside the sea.

"You're going home in a Sussex ambulance."

How far did the good people of the Sussex Ambulance Service (or whatever they're called) transport those who'd taken an unfortunate pounding? I always liked to think they'd make it to the Surrey border and turf them out with a cheery "Good luck chap".

I always though the chant was youe going home is a f***ing Ambulance.

Brighton factually.....
One of the most bizarre chants you will hear at football.

At Preston late 80s we sang this at deep dale shortly after leyland daf announced they would close the factory nearby....

"There's only one ford transit"
"There's only one ford transit"

Over and Over again....

Made me chuckle, we can be cruel....

On a similar theme.......

March 9 1988 - Brighton host Notts County in the semi-final (southern section) of the Sherpa Van Trophy. Let's just say things don't go quite as planned.

Long before the final goal in a 5-1 thrashing had hit the back of the net the North Stand were chanting:-

"You can stick your Sherpa Trophy up your arse,
You can stick your Sherpa Trophy up your arse,
You can stick your Sherpa Trophy,
Stick your Sherpa Trophy,
Stick your Sherpa Trophy up your arse!"

Would have thought most of the Lewes fans wouldn't have heard of the So Solid Crew, and the only Harvey(s) they care about is behind the bar.:smile:

From the 70's, The B.R.A song.

B.R.A. Brighton Republican Army,
Away or Home, friend or foe, we are the B.R.A.

Plus I always thought the Knock Knock song went as follows, (used to be started by Jimmy Hannigan in the North)
Knock Knock, who's there? Isa, Isa who?
I's a knock kneed chicken, I's a bow legged hen
I aint lost a fight since I don't know when,
I don't give a wiggle & I don't give a ****
we are the Brighton, North Stand.

Same tune:
Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly, have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?
Shanks said no I don't think so, but I've heard of the Brighton, NORTH STAND!

Long time ago mind you!

I NEVER heard that one sung, I wish I had! All these years I have just assumed it was a fine chant that had passed us by.

If I was in the north, I'd be bang up for starting that one up now that I'm all grown up and that.

Definitely got sung, a lot! I dust it off & bring it out now & again during a post victory sing song. Normally results in someone of a similar vintage remarking, "**** me, you go back a bit!"

Also, up at MK Dons last season, I thought one of the best was an oldie that was belted out loud & proud.

"Hello, hello, we are the Brighton Boys" etc
