[Albion] Albion chants you never hear anymore AND funniest crowd moments!

[Weststander]

You’re only here for the fishing, only here for the fiiissshhhhing.

(To Plymouth A visitors at the Goldstone in the Nicky Rust era).

 

[zefarelly]

Actually, are there any local historians who know what became the "new" Shoreham road? Or is it a reference to Shoreham being old? My knowledge of these things is hugely lacking

I'm no historian, but New Shoreham is centred around St Marys (C. 1080 ) and the harbour/river at the footbridge.

'Old' Shoreham is St Nicholas Church which is older, Circa AD 900.

Over time the two have become co-joined by development and are commonly known as one town.

THe A259 coast road is relatively new, the old A27 'top' road is the Old Shoreham Rd which runs from the Toll Bridge by St Nicholas, all the way to Brighton past the Goldstone ground.

 

[R. Slicker]

For over 40 years I have always cringed when this is sung.... "all the lads and lasses..." FFS

It's a Newcastle song, The Blaydon races.

 

[oldboyroy]

"Come and join us come and join us come and join us over here" sung many times in North to visiting fans in East corner

 

[R. Slicker]

In your Liverpool slums

Remember Grimsby, You only sing when you're fishing.
& Pompey, You only sing when you're sailing.
Referee, your old lady is a Whoressssssssss

 

[BN9 BHA]

Referee, referee your old lady is a whore, your old lady is a whore.
As a young un I thought the North Stand were singing “your old lady is a horse”

 

[pasty]

I did enjoy singing "You dirty Northern ********" at Crawley when we played them in the cup at The Goldstone

At a withdean home game in front of H block 3 male stewards were standing together with a female steward standing on her own to the right of them promoting a rendition of the blind date theme tune

The bloke with the false leg being removed by the stewards with one coming down the steps holding the leg

Away crowd at Brentford in league one singing ‘I predict a diet’ to a chubby steward

 

[Deadly Danson]

A couple of more recent ones:

If you're Yapi and you know it clap your hands.

Shane Duffy - we've all seen your arse!

 

[bobby baxter]

Yes it was Bobby! Do you remember

Aye, yi yi-yi

Tony Burns is better than Yashin

Dave Turner is better than Eusabio

..and Chelsea are in for a thrashing!

I do !

Although I preferred to sing, Powney is better than Yashin.

 

[BN9 BHA]

Albion v Wolves at Withdean, Paul Ince got the ball straight in the nuts, as he was getting treatment an Albion fan behind the dugouts shouted “ You’re not the f****** guvnor now Ince”

 

[Billy Seagull]

Sack The Board not been heard for a while

 

[The Mole]

To Paddy Kenny at Sheffield United
“What’s it like to swim the Thames”

Just after a whale was sighted outside the Houses of Parliament

 

[Guinness Boy]

I did enjoy singing "You dirty Northern ********" at Crawley when we played them in the cup at The Goldstone

Plymouth once sang it to us!

 

[Titanic]

On our way, on our way, to the Premier League, we're on our way!

I liked that one.

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

Way back when God's dog was a puppy, Tony Grealish was getting some grief at the Goldstone.

A lone voice from the West stand "Come on Grealish, let's see some magic!"

Followed by another lone voice "Disappear!!"

 

[GT49er]

And no, I don't want anything racist or homophobic, thank you.

I remember at Withers, a group of fans in the "singing section" (sigh) used to do the "and number 1 was Peter Ward, and number 2 was Peter Ward" etc (Yellow Submarine). Probably haven't heard that in 18 years.

Also, the lesser heard "Seagulls, Seagulls" cry, largely forgotten for "Allllbiiiioooon, Allllbiiiioooon".

And a funny... again at Withdean, we were leading Rochdale I believe and they made a sub, bringing off striker Robbie Painter. Coinciding with a quiet moment, some bloke yells "Robbie, you should've stayed a painter, you're SHIT".

Laughter and merriment all round, even from the bitter old cow sat next to me for that season ticket. Oh, and we won.

Just reverting to tradition - 'Alllbiiion, Alllbiion!' used to rumble round the Goldstone before we were even called the Seagulls!

If you go down to the woods today
You better go in disguise.
If you go down to the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise
Cos Jeremy the Sugar Puffs Bear
Has bought some boots and cropped his hair
Today's the day that Jeremy joined the Skinheads.

Brazil, it's just like watching Brazil.

Celery, Celery, if she don't cum I'll tickle her bum
With a stick of Celery

 

[wuntbedruv]

The original Albion Albion Albion chant with varied tempo that sounded like waves crashing on a beach.

Check out "Fearless " by Pink Floyd (Meddle album) for the Anfield Kop version if you have never heard or don't remember it

 

[scooter1]

I’ll never forget a game at Withdean, where the south stand lino was having a shocker and some wag shouted: ‘Excuse me, linesman you’re not very good are you?’ And that was it….
