A few Albion 'fans' being nationalistic ****s on the train last night...a rare occurrence?

I doubt you are , I was making the point that anti British sentiment/songs are acceptable ,if nobody bats an eyelid at a busker singing a song including the words "f*ck your Union Jack" in a public place like that , they aren't going to be worried by pissed up blokes singing it on a train are they ?

I think they would. Most of the Irish I know would enjoy the song sang by the Busker, but would think it out of order if a group of Irish lads started it up to try and annoy or intimidate an English tourist.
The context is important, the Busker is playing to Irish people who will appreciate the sentiment, if a group of lads start it up, purely for the ears of an English tourist, I am pretty sure my Irish friends would think they were behaving badly.

What a lot of drivel.


This is my third post on this thread, I have not read it all because I don't need to......if it happened as described by the OP it's about some blokes singing a song on a train.

But the song is not really the issue is it......it's who has the mouths that was singing the song.

If this song wasn't sung by those mouths, the mouths would have sung something else, and this thread would be about a different song you and others would equally be pissing your pants about.

We know the type that own these mouths, just as we know the types that stink of piss.

...and now the possiblity of pissing my pants over something that I or nobody else has been 'offended' by.

Brilliant!

When I was really into the greyhounds and used to go to Ireland regular visiting trainers breeders etc we always ended up in pubs well into the night. A lot of these in the middle of nowhere, the Irish we were with often had to go in first to check it was ok to bring a couple of English lads in. We never obviously took offence at the rebel songs sang well into the night.
I remember once flying out of Cork and on the back of the toilet door "Fu?k off home Brits" Made me laugh as that time they had a statue of Jackie Charlton in the airport.
I was at Cork dog track the night of the England v South Africa rugby World Cup final when got a try one bloke who was with us jumped up and cheered and punched the air. You have never seen a reaction like it . He was ushered back to the bar by the Irish lads we knew. Did I ever get upset about it NO
Don't dare getting upset about a few lads singing on a train

Yep your right about the tube, also seem to remember the OB trying to kettle all the lads outside the away end after the game which didn't go down to well.

Never heard this at any game at the Amex, or travelling to/from. As said above, if it happened probably a few 'visitors' having had one too many.
this was a common song in the old north stand 70's/80's and at England games along with rangers-celtic-rangers-celtic-rangers-celtic,
