Hey! I'm Alanna - a thirty-something documenting my life as a Canadian living in England.
I share the ups and downs of an expat living abroad and what it's really like living in the UK. It's not always easy, but there's been so many wonderful experiences, too.

This is a good point, but more than that I think it is time that plays a big part. Some rivalries go farther back in history than the discovery of the Americas. That means something deep. I dont even watch football but I know of the local rivalry between the big teams and the small teams nearby.

From a young age, we have a lot of experience singing together during school assemblies. Often singing rude versions to annoy the teachers. Every British school kid knows these tunes by heart, and they are often used as a base for football chants, too. That and insulting each other is a national tradition. These songs come very naturally!

British Sports fans: "All right lads, I've just worked up a song to the tune of Debussy's Claire de Lune about an opposing player's drunk driving charge. I'llcount us off!" The best ones are just so easy to pick up once a few fans have kicked them off, and everyone joins in. I also have no interest in footbal (or any sport competition), but a good chant is worth listening to- as long as you can avoid the truly offensive ones.

@davidwright7193 Месяц назад

Lots of football fans put the reduction of singing at football matches down to all seater stadiums.

This chant was aimed at Buster Bloodvessel, the lead singer of the band and, turns out he wasn't coming on stage until they'd declared their love for him in this manner for quite a while 😂 I was lucky enough to interview the fat bas- I mean, Buster after the gig, for the volunteer job I had at the time, and he was (and hopefully still is) a great guy 😊

Here's the thing Alana, many of the chants follow the same set of about 6-7 different base songs, so words can be interchanged as fit. Someone will start a song and even though the words may have been changed, it will still follow the same structure and therefore pretty much everyone will join in regardless because the song tune will remain. Some songs are developed in the foyers of the grounds or the local pubs too. But it's not like someone stands up and says "here my good fellows, what do you think about this ...." someone will say something which will get a huge laugh and a song may be developed

@benstoyles1297 Месяц назад

There's about a dozen or set "tunes" or rhythms (Is there a fire drill is La Donna È Mobile etc) that are commonly used which allows any new chant to be quickly adopted. For new chants, someone will come up with it (or a group will think it up, usually in the pub) and then they'll start bellowing it repeatedly. If its any good other people will join in, and it will quickly be the whole stand doing it. If it's crap it will awkwardly peter out.

Great video Alanna. Some chants are specific to a club, either being sung by them or sung by different fans aimed at one club in particular, but '...fire drill?', 'four nil, how s**t must you be' (other score lines are available lol), etc can literally be sung by any fan base - and they are very generally sung with a lot of enthusiasm. A lot of chants are taken from popular songs, aimed at players of their own club or at opposing players. Unfortunately for some there is also 'tragedy chanting' which is totally uncalled for but aside from that, literally anything is fair game...both your own club and whoever they are playing.

Hi Alanna, there's very little chanting at Rugby matches, there's an old saying, Football is a game for gentlemen, played by hooligans, Rugby is a game for hooligans played by gentlemen, to a certain extent that carries over to the fans. If a Football player doesn't like a referees decision he will get into a shouting match with him. In Rugby the referees word is law, Recently retired Welsh referee Nigel Owens is a small, openly gay man who had the absolute respect of players a foot or more taller and twice the weight, he also had the trust of the International Rugby community. To the extent he was picked to referee an International match involving his own country. If you're interested, see "10 minutes of Nigel Owens being Nigel Owens".

Thank you for including Walsall in this clip (and reacting in the usual way). For an EFL League 2 (Division 4) club, they really punch above their weight in chanting. They seem to feature a lot in these compilations. And some of their best work is ad hoc, reacting to events on the pitch (or off it).

I remember my dad telling years ago about when Arsenal would play Liverpool, the Arsenal fans would start singing "Sign on, sign on, (as in sign on the dole/unemployment benefit) with hope hope in your heart, and you'll never work again, Youuuul neeeeeverrrrrrr work AGAIN!". And the Liverpool would reply " Gerry and the pacemakers song Thank you very much for paying r Giro's (unemployment money), thank you very much thank you very-very-very much" to the tune of an old 1980's Cadbury's chocolate Roses TV advert.

It's a mixture of pre-written ones with some improvised ones sprinkled in. You normally set it to a well known tune like a pop song or nursery rhyme so people can pick it up easier if it's their first time hearing it. Club and player chants become well known pretty quickly by their match going fans. If you go to a match you can start a chant yourself and it'll be quickly picked up by the rest of the crowd if it's good or one of the well known ones.

@oiyouoverhere1112 13 дней назад

Some chants are sung at every game and some are created on the spot due to a random circumstance, the guy next to you begins to sing along, then the next, then your entire row, the row in front, the row behind and then the entire stand is singing it, they pick up on it around the stadium and then, most of the stadium are singing it. There is a common song during a LIVE Sky broadcast, "Sky TV is f**king sh*t" which Sky try to dub during the match, because Sky will rearrange a match for TV coverage without giving a toss if it effects the fans who had tickets for the original date. Its mostly sung at Leeds United games, but its caught on with other clubs who are effected by rearranged games.

With chants there are many ways they can come around. You usually have the diehard fans who spend ages together and for the more unique chants they’ll usually be concocted by a group who put it to the fans in the stadium and if it catches on then everyone sings it. There are some chants every team sings and every fan knows as well which any team is allowed to sing at any point. Though you do still have it sometimes where a chant will be made by one person who just starts singing it and everyone picks it up. It’s really a mix of everything and it’s very natural

1:45 - Somewhere in the middle. Some chants are so well-known that people can just start them and others join in. Others are to a given melody but the words may change; in that case, someone starts singing the words, and the people around them use their knowledge of that melody and the structure chants built from that melody follow in order to be able to join in.

@arthurerickson5162 Месяц назад

Great video, Alanna! You’re right about football/soccer chants in the US. They’re generally “mild” compared to the ones you showed us. The clubs, and the league (MLS), will eventually crack down on repeat bad behavior (especially if the game is on national TV). Nowadays, the only bad behavior (without any humor) is usually from parents at their kids matches.
