Heard a lot of "Maggie's in the Mud" last night which I guess was a reaction to typical classist chants from the home crowd? Home crowd were barely heard on telly.

Fuck the Tories

If we get through the final everyone of our traveling fans last night deserve a ticket ahead of anyone else.
Outstanding contribution.

Yep, along with it's grim follow-up about digging her up. I feel like it's maybe mostly sung by the younger element but might be wrong.

Yep, that too. One of the extremely rare occasions I've felt uncomfortable in our crowd is when these get belted out, to be completely honest.

For me, whilst we're having a grown up conversation about singing songs about people dying and generally being better than that, this needs to be on the table in amongst it too. It's abundantly clear what the feeling is towards her on Merseyside, so this song doesn't need singing to clarify that. All it does, in my opinion, is reflect poorly on us.

I have to agree.

I put Thatcher right up there with Nazi scum. I don't hate easily, but I genuinely hated her and I hate her horrible legacy and all those that adhere to her vile ideology. Despite that, singing any song revelling in death is not a good look at all. We really should be much better than that.

I agree about the Maggie chant. Hate it to be honest... not as much as I hated her, but still a lot!

Best thing we can do is not bother mentioning her. To chant about her, no matter how derogatory it is, keeps her alive somewhat.

They're the kind of chants that while unsavoury might work on the Boss Nights, or whatever, but then you get lads who think it's clever to chant them at the game after hearing them there.

I was quite happy to celebrate her death, I will never be convinced she didn't allow the Falklands war to happen just so she could win the election and so the blood of all the dead is on her hands.

Saying that, it's gone now and we need to no longer sing about it. Happy to hear songs when one of this current lot of c*nts dies though.

Agree. Haven't sung it for years. Was ok at Reading IMO a few days after (given what she did to us) but not it just seems stale. I agree about it being mainly younger supporters who won't remember her anyway. I'd rather we sang something more positive and supported our team.

Didn't hear anything about rent boys last night though (even though Gilmour played)  so that was good

It was started by some at the back of the stand, thankfully drowned out/didn't get started but to be honest these were not typical match going reds as they would know some things don't get sung.

Fucking hell, does no c*nt understand humour anymore? :butt
It's the times we live in, Rob.

When did this sudden forensic scrutiny of chants start? It's particularly galling when the chanting elephant in the room goes completely ignored.

Idiots all over the country can sing filth revelling in death, tragedy, grief, poverty, unemployment etc and nothing is said, written or done about it. Liverpool sing a harmless song highlighting the absurdity of the money in modern football and it warrants a piece in the press. What next? A broadsheet doing a piece on the historical accuracy of Poor Scouser Tommy?

The song is ironic. It points out that in the modern game, where entire countries plough billions into mediocre football clubs, a global giant like Liverpool is comparatively skint.

While we're at it, maybe all away fans at Brentford this evening should be frisked for axes. After all, ''we don't carry bottles, we don't carry lead, we only carry hatchets to.... ''  ::)


It was similar with that banner around the time of Brexit that stated we liked being in Europe. Clearly a topical pun but with the focus on the European pedigree of LFC, yet a number of po-faced idiots in the media jumped on that too, suggesting politics should be kept out of sport.

If anyone in the media feels like doing their job properly and would like to highlight some seriously disgusting songs and chants, I can point them towards Old Trafford, Elland Road, Goodison Park and a host of other grounds. If they'd rather stick with Anfield, maybe get a ticket sat next to most away fanbases when they arrive up here. They'll find plenty of genuinely disturbing stuff to write about then. If they have the guts to, of course.

All the noise coming from the area by the corner flag where I was. Didn’t see many tourists for once. Good selection of songs. Thankfully much better than Norwich. Away end is a bit wierd so quite hard to get a song going which is always the case if you upper and lower tier
