I've never seen it being belted out on the kop before, I know it's been done by anfield road, but it just screams generic cringey cockney crap, just like WHO ARE YA, BOUNCE BACK ABILITY and IS THIS A LIBRARY. I just personally associate it with Wanker Hats, half and half scarves, foam fingers and England face paint
We've got a whole collection of great songs, i'd rather we stuck to them
Basically this!
I was also surprised about the amount of people at down in 305. It was like a domino effect from 304 at the start of the game and got to me. I stayed stood up and looked at the guy sat to my left and he realised he could stand and he stood up haha.
We really need to stop with this moaning, whinging mentality at the game though. So many people in 305 slagging the players off, moaning if a player goes back with the ball, misplaces a pass, hits a shot wide etc. They are professional footballers but ffs no footballer in history ever has a 100% strike rate or pass rate, so when Henderson misplaces his first pass of the night, why does everyone jump on his back? When Lucas is under pressure and plays a ball back to the defenders, why do people shout shit like 'fucking negative twat' at him? Im the first to admit that on here I can be critical of our players at times but at the game, its a different story. We support the team no matter how well you're doing.
There's been threads on here created about the level of criticism the players get on Rawk after the game or in player threads but fucking hell, if the scouse lad behind me was on Rawk, he'd be banned within the hour. Remember the first half where Lovren come across his man, slid and cleared the ball into touch? The crowd applauded what was a great clearance, and this scouse lad shouted 'why the fuck are you lot clapping that? He hit it out of play!'
Another observation is when its completely dead and we concede a goal and then the whole ground starts singing to get behind the team to push them forward, why has it taken until we get to that point before people actually start singing? Maybe, just maybe, if everyone was singing, was loud and roaring the team on instead of being quiet and moaning at every last fucking mistake, we wouldn't be 1-0 down?
