Crap that people shout at football

[FishyMackem]

I took my mum to a game once and she kept singing "Who are you", "The referee is a plonker", "We wee on your fish". Polite chanting - it's the future!

Get annoyed when fans copy chants, especially player ones. Hearing the Will Grigg's on fire chant (for example) used for random different players is pretty cringe tbh. Think of something more original ffs.

Makes me laugh when away fans sing "Grimsby's a shithole, I wanna go home".

Ermm, you're in Cleethorpes actually!

One game at home he was magic. We were attacking the NRE in the first half unusually so our left back Tonkin was on our side. It must have been Brabin in charge and we weee basically camped in the opposition’s half but couldn’t score.

Cue Seamus: “Forward Tonkin”, “Head Tonkin”, “Long Tonkin”, “Get stuck in Tonkin”, “Back Tonkin”. It was like this for 45 minutes. At one point, Tonkin hit a free kick long into the box from about the half way line and Seamus was on at him to get on to the end of it. I was almost crying with laughter.

In the second half, first minute he shouts “Forward Gleason” and someone told him to shut the f*ck up.

There was a guy behind me this and last season who was on Derry’s case before a ball had barely been kicked. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t his biggest fan but I would give the side a chance first.

There’s also an Italian guy (I think he’s Italian) who often shouts things like “asshole!” at any opponent who gives away a foul. He’s quite a character and I quite like the abuse he levels at various players.

Seamus may be quite irritating at times but ultimately he's just a harmless geezer. I don't usually go in the Main Stand, but I've been hearing a lot from one of my mates about 3 or 4 Block C individuals and the bile they repeatedly spout. I've also heard about a couple of fellas in Block B, but apparently these two aren't as loathsome as their Block C comrades.

IIRC, somebody did film Seamus doing his thing back in the Conference years and I'm sure it was on youtube at one time, but I think the uploader took it down as I can't seem to find it.

Inappropriately mistimed? Surely the same as appropriately timed?

There’s a lot of moaners at Bury, naturally, given our speciality is being shite and bottling big games.

One man in the south stand shouts ‘First rule of defending, don’t let it bounce’ quite a lot, no idea who it is.

We also have fans that will still be ranting about a decision from the referee even though the foul was minor and subsequent free kick was taken 30 seconds ago. There’s a wall of grumbling with the odd ‘What game are you watching referee/Were not here to see you referee, you pillock’ thrown in. They also like to shout ‘liner’ instead of linesman.

No

Seamus is one of our own.

I hesitated before posting but he is (was?) part of the unique tapestry that is the Habbin. There are plenty more humour/irony free morons that I could unload on but I missed Seamus last season.

A major advantage of terraces over seats is that it's easy to put a couple of bodies between yourself and an irritation when it gets excessive.

 

[Old Athletic Ham]

Older bloke who used sit near us shouted the same thing as soon as we kicked off every game.

'Come on, we're murdering them!'

His Tuesday night favourite for games that dragged on was 'Come on, I'm missing Emmerdale!'.
