Reading debates the etiquette of anti-gay chanting

[London Irish]

Quute funny really given that they falling out over it. Life was so much simpler before intellectualised footy messageboards, doncha think?

http://www.royals.org/ and then go to thread "Songs for Brighton"

In this parallel universe there also appears to be another Alan Partridge, not a patch on ours I'd wager.

 

[Thimble Keegan]

Excellent thread that one with their in-fighting...I have even added my own bit to that thread.

got all that from a fan on a different board

[BSongs for the 1st agme of the season against Brighton

mark mcghee's a bender
he used to have some class
now hes with brighton
and takes it up the a**e

He fat, hes round, he's going to take you down, Mark McGhee

to the tune of praise you

you've come a long long way together
to see your team get beat
now f**k off back to brighton
with that c**t mcghee

to the tune ofs arsenals " we are un beat a ble , we are un beat a ble"

"you are homo sex uals , you are homo sex uals etc"

followed by a verse of

" we are het ro sexuals , we are het ro sexuals
la la la la lala] [/B]

Some of those comments take the biscuit.
The thing is they can make up as many chants as they like.With their crowd we won't hear a F**king sound as normal.

God they are so boring, don't they think we have heard it all before, if they could come up with something original (like I gather QPR did last season) then it might just be funny, not that I would ever condone homophobia you must understand...

Our best response has always been to bounce the insult back on whoever is singining it, perhaps we should try harder to come up with some witty responses to the usual guff.

I like the reply from one "try and name a gay haunt in reading"

well "Hob Nob Anyone" being the name of their chatroom sounds very gay to me

 

[saltash seagull]

they really are so original!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Seem to recall reading somewhere that they got Reading's first ever 'Pride' festival sometime this Summer? That'll go down really well. Allegedly. like...

 

[Donny Osmond]

The Mad Stad is usually very quiet.
All we need to do is sing "shall we sing a song for you" quickly followed by "does your boyfriend know your here"
Should confuse them.

 

[Icy Gull]

And what mature stuff are we going to sing to Mr Coppout ?

We have to adapt the PALACE bit. It can be done if we do a quick EA

R EA D I N G Stevie Coppell's got VD etc


I don't mind the chants, it's when you get it face to face by mindless gonks outside the ground that it gets to me.

As at Forest we can turn the chants into something funny. The gay Mexican wave is one of the funniest things I have seen.

 

[perth seagull]

The gay chants are old ,and no doubt will be used by simple minded folk who think they're witty and original.

But I'd sing that "down with the west pier" one if I didn't support Brighton!

Erm, try both the Granby tavern and the Wynford arms. Actually 2 of the busiest gay venues in the thames valley region.

Also the 3 B's in the town hall hosts (or certainly used to host) a very busy gay night every week.

 

[Rangdo]

I'm all for a bit of friendly banter. Better if its original as opposed to churning out the same old crap.
One thing that does get me though is that fans from other towns seem to be under the impression that the entire gay population of the UK is in Brighton. It's like they think there are no gay people within a 100 mile radius of them

 

[looney]

The gay stuff is funny, well it is when I do it. I dont have a problem with donut punchers , some of my best friends are mincing fruits. Safeway, gunter, Bozza etc.............

' Down with your boyfriend,
You're going down with your boyfriend'





surely the chant should be:

'Down ON your boyfriend,
You're going down ON your boyfriend'
