No not for me Cheshire it is not. Patriotic? yes, a bit silly? probably yes, catchy, for me yes, but I am English so the first lines fit ok and I had a personal reason for not much liking that lot or the people who supported them. To put it mildly.
10 years and 100 years is the clue to the...
I don't think they have any connection with the football club other than it being an English club with mostly English fans, based in Britain a country which was the enemy of the IRA.
It's not political though is it, its celebration of the current patron saint of England (and elsewhere) being English and making a statement about hating a terrorist organisation who wanted to kill us.
Go on then I don't have much on tonight, I'll bite.
I think we both know it's No Surrender to the IRA and the people who sing it probably did not take kindly to the killing of innocent British people in a terrorist campaign waged by that organisation for 30 odd years in the last outbreak of...
No Surrender "mugs" who were opposed to a group of people who wanted to kill British people! You sound like the mug to me.
The troubles may be over 10 years and NI has mostly moved on thankfully, but the memory has not yet faded and songs will still be sung on both sides.
NO Surrender
You must have hated the scene at England games prior to 1996 then, as it was all Union flags. I have always taken either a Union flag or White Ensign to games, and I have always known the difference. (Had a St George Cross tattoo before most people even knew what it was)
However I am British...
Ha ha yeah, that was it feathers, can't remember why now but maybe it was the booze, the score, and those feathers that tipped me over the edge!!
Anyway I agree singing a West Ham song is embarrasing (i guess that is what your alluding to with the cocks comment), but slagging off your fellow...
Facts yep agree, blowing bubbles what the!!! Very bad form
I remember you from Gillingham, you are the lump who I wanted to flatten out when we played Gillingham about 6 years ago on the away terrace, remember you were singing something stupid yourself and we had a few words, you remember...
Fair enough Dandy, though I think they have always been at games so not really sure what your getting at with the "do something about it comment". Though granted it is some time since the paper sell days.
Funny place Brighton, has such a liberal attitude to many things but the football club...
Hold on your a Yid though (from your sig) and your telling a Chelsea fan (you say) to do one from a Brighton site?
I spent my teenage years on the Shelf and am a Yid and I have followed BHA for just as long but I know that BHA have now, in the past and no doubt will always have a significant...
El Pork Chop you do realise that your little fishing expedition is badly timed, all good loyalists are up in London watching the Gers. You better bounce it tomorrow.
No Surrender (I am a skint loyalist)
I went to school a decent goal kick away from Stamford Bridge when you lot were really massive, you know when you had to beat the likes of Hull to stay up in the 2nd division in front of 13,000 people and the shed was a crumbling empty terrace with electric fences at the front.
Anyway I used to...
Not sure about the BNP I considered voting for them but too many socialist policies for me plus the whole race issue, they say they are not racist but lets face it they are not exactly welcoming the fuzzy wuzzies with open arms are they.
The problem is the more the left get themselves in such a...
I used to post here all the time but for the last 3 years I have just sat it out for a number of reasons but this thread has finally tempted me back.
The starter of this thread has got some front telling people what they can and can't do at football matches surely we have enough trouble from...
