Unless you're born and raised in the UK it's hard to understand how we are. All of this sounds really offensive to american ears, but to us this is banter and everyone knows that it's all in good fun. The people who get offended by this are the people who just don't understand us and the sort of culture we have. A lot of our humour is insult based, and if you can't handle that you probably can't handle the UK.
You’d have your career ended if you were found out saying shit like this here and we’re supposed to be the country with free speech and you don’t see chants like that here it’s one of the few things I like about England we are seen to be out there but you guys are too
American sports fans: DEFENCE!... DEFENCE! British sports fans: Okay lads, I've got a lovely little chant about the opposition winger's wife cheating on him with his brother to the tune of bread of heaven, I'll count us in...

Hi From The UK And Yes I Agree We As Brits Do Like To Chant lots We Have Even Sung About Argentina Mainly ( don't cry for me Argentina ) even though We Weren't Playing Argentina Some Fan Get So Drunk It's Hard To Keep There Chants Clean
Back in the 70's (don't remember which game)The Arsenal requested no swearing in the match day programme (magazine). The chant 'we're not swearing anymore' went up. The visiting team rudely scored 1st, to which the natural chant was 'you're gonna to get your f'king heads kicked in' followed by 'swearing is back'. Never try to sanitize a tribe.
I remember one game at old trafford, i think we were playing Juventus, and there were big announcements made prior to the game telling everyone to remain seated for the whole game or they may be asked to leave - the second the match kicked off about 70,000 fans stood up, and remained so for the entire game
The English do it in cricket as well. They have a band of (drunken) fans called the Barmy Army that travel the world. In Australia they chant ‘You all live in a convict colony’ to the tune of ‘we all live in a yellow submarine’. Us Aussies actually love them, they make it a great atmosphere.
SuperEdge67 it's true that the UK and the Aussies and Kiwis, when we are actually so far apart, still have so much in common. Sports help that bond that I hope it will survive the Republic of Australia that is surely coming someday in the not too distant. I always wondered how the Aussies saw the Barmy Army, so it's good to know you don't take 'em too seriously. Our sense of humour seems so alike. I've noticed the Aussies pick up a lot of US English to the extent I heard an Aussie pronounce "route" like rout the other day on TV. I have even reminded Americans that route should rhyme with root otherwise the song would go (get your kicks on) rout 66!
Went to a match at Edgbaston one time where the crowd decided to "adopt" one of the fielders and cheer every little thing he did. Took his hat off? WAAAAAYYYY!!!! Put his hat back on? WAAAAAAAYYYY!!!! the whole ground went absolutely fucking buts when he actually took a catch. Good times :D
There's nothing I enjoy more than hearing live-match commentators apologise for the chants from the crowd, when the entire stadium is sticking it to someone.
"Apologies if you heard any swearing or bad language there". Everyone watching just laughs. If you've been to a football match you know exactly what the chants are like 😂

@@generichuman2044 If you actually go to a match, rather than just watch one on the telly, you can barely hear most of these chants, because the twenty or thirty morons who make most of the obscene or abusive chants are completely drowned out by the thousands or tens of thousands of ordinary fans who are just cheering their teams on, admittedly sometimes rather humorously.

I met an American at a football match in the UK. Nice bloke, but it was like the biggest case of culture shock I’d ever witnessed when the crowd started 😂
@michael fisher it’s very dismissive to say it’s “just hooliganism”. Football and it’s fans are something I’m very proud of as an Englishman. I think it’s one of our greatest national exports. Sure there’s bad language and it can get lively, but that’s all tied to passion for the club. And let’s be real: what’s a few swear words and some shouting going to do to you!? That’s part of the charm for many. There can be violence too, but in the vast majority of cases, British fans don’t turn to violence. It’s only when you look at the fans of some other clubs and realise that going away to somewhere like Juventus or Roma in the champions league and sitting in the wrong end can actually get you stabbed, that you realise British fans are pretty hospitable. They mainly only get in trouble overseas for drinking.
The “OOOOHHHH YOU FAT BASTARD” on the goal kick was funny as hell. It’s gotta be hard being a goalie because a massive majority of the time the fans behind your goal are the ones that are absolutely crazy
I’m not a football fan, but I got to experience the iconic Scotland vs Italy chant “We’re gonna deep fry yer pizzas” when I was on holiday. A lot milder than these, but still hilarious when it being belted out by 100+ voices.

Actually mad respect to you for getting some of the very british chants, especially realising they were referencing the steward looking like Boris Johnson, I feel like a lot of people just wouldnt have got that
I remember when goal keeper Andy Goram of Rangers in Scotland was diagnosed (apparently) with a split personality, the Rangers fans spontaneously started the chant "there's only two Andy Gorams, there's only two Andy Gorams".
Experienced a basketball game in the states a few years back, everyone was chanting “ref you suck” meanwhile me and my 5 English mates were doing the famous “referees a wanker!”
From what I remember England Vs Sweden in the Euros? England fans at tournaments can go one of two ways, having a laugh with the opposition fans and some cracking songs, or there is a riot in a town square with people getting hit with plastic chairs.
@@manu-tonyo9654 I was on a flight to Barbados when England played Iceland, the Scottish pilot took great pleasure announcing as they were taxiing from the runway to the stand that England had just lost, ended it with 'That's a brilliant start to your holiday!'.

@@vcrossCelticfc Germans literally don't give a shit about the 1966 world Cup, it was just one when they came second on route to winning 4.. & none of them were even born for the world wars.
Was at a game where there was a marriage proposal on the pitch at half time. The whole away end started chanting. "You don't know what you're doing". Then the home fans joined in, it was amazing.
I've never been into football at all but I absolutely love the chants that the crowds do during matches. It truly is an important part of British culture.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a ‘is this a library’ chant on here. That’s a classic, especially if the away team are big underdogs and are winning at the ground of a big club, with all their fans silent.
Is this a library is the worst chant going, whenever I heard fans singing it I like to think it’s because they genuinely have never been in a library before because they can’t read.

To be fair compared to Scotland, it's not. Football is way more important up in Scotland than down South, even if recently we've been shite. Scotland tops the most-watched league per Capita by some mile than any other league in Europe by the local population. I've lived in England and Scotland and it's nothing compared to up here down South.
Football chants in the UK are spontaneous and organic, they're not contrived. Some don't make it and disappear into thin air, but some do and go around the ground. Best ever.
@@jauntyangle5667 I just worked that out. Though my grandfather was Tottenham Suporter (he was from Edmonton), before the stronger association with the Stamford Hill mobs !!
@@jauntyangle5667 Only when they are Playing Arsenal. ( Sorry I lived near Upton Park so work out my normal favorite, with Fulham as second choice - mostly because they needed the other supporter).
Part of the reason the chants are so well organised is away fans, they'll travel in coaches or on the train together and share the knowledge. So one week it might be 1 small group of fans who have the chant, by the next week it's a choir
Best one I remember is "Park, Park wherever you may be, you eat dogs in your home country. It could be worse, you could be a scouse, eating rats in a council house." Aimed at Park Ji-sung but also at Liverpool and Everton.
There's a reason Cheerleaders don't do many football events here...football is the peoples game and it was a place where the ordinary folk could go and vent in the form of chants...Sometimes it gets ugly but mostly its just banter.
@@jamiesutherland1497 Palace have always been a bit weird. They have ultras too when no one else in England has them apart from maybe Celtic’s Green Brigade.
@@maxpowerii7368 That's true, however most teams a have a firm so it's not totally as rare as you would think. And I'll confess, being a Palace fan I have absolutely nothing to do with them, I go to watch the football and chant. Will say this, Selhurst has got an awesome atmosphere.
The "Fergie" person was Darren Ferguson, his dad Alex is an absolute legend of the game, so that was the dad chant, he was also arrested for domestic abuse and plead guilty, that's where "She said no" came from.
We had a match a bit like that. Our goalie had a whole match abuse, and lost his rag at the end. He said to me afterwards "I can handle being called fat, and I can handle being called a c*nt, and I can handle the ginger stuff, but the moment you go racist on my centre-back you're going down".
@@Relyx Blyth Spartans v Birmingham City. Goalkeepers in the lower leagues must develop a particularly thick skin. I used to watch Colchester United at home games and the fans were merciless towards the opposition keeper.

This was great to watch because it shows how very different the UK and the US are when it comes to banter and humour, we're just darker in the UK, probably the reason why a lot of the more controversial US comedians have more success touring the UK than they do home. Good video! 👌
@@waynelawton4946 there are some other funniest football chant videos on UA-cam which have some clips I didn’t include if u want u can look at them I just tried to put some of the ones I personally found funniest in the video.
The noticeable difference between American ball games and British football is that American games are very family orientated and you can all go there for a good time. In the UK, you could at one time take them, but it's definitely not suitable for all family members. Great video. Extremely funny.
Yep, pre match drinks at home, then at the pub where you meet your mates. A few cans on the trip to the stadium and if their lucky snick a few into too 😂
For the first 2 chants, Adam Johnson was actually convicted for that. They didn’t just pick a random opposing player. It happened when he was at Sunderland because the lyrics should say “Stadium of Light” (Sunderland’s stadium).
I remember being at games as a kid and sometimes the rowdy lads would be chanting and my dad and his mate would be laughing and I'd say "what they saying dad?" he'd be like "doesn't matter" 😂😂
Same here - I asked my dad what a wanker was as apparently 'We all agree Man United are wankers!". He said he'd tell me when we got home but he must have forgotten 😂
Football in the UK is Tribal and each tribe has its songs. Each Team has a hard core of Fans who sing. they are the only ones who know the rules of the songs, us mere mortals only join in with the basic chants. I was amazed going to Sports events in the USA & Canada that this just does not happen there.
best one ive heard was when liverpool (a rough area) had a manager with a long nose and west ham had a great player called Dicanio, they sang "youve got pinocchio, but we've got Dicanio" and then the others sang back "youve got Dicanio, but we'll nick your stereo"
thats class! One of my all time favourites was in the early days of Christiano Ronaldo being at United he had some allegation of coming on too strong to a girl at a nightclub. The other fans were singing "RO NAL DO. Whenagirlsaysno molesssssstt her." To the the tune of the Re-Rewind by Artful Dodger. Best tune match and lyrics for years at a game, could hear it over the TV hahaha
I’m Scottish, I live in Scotland and we have similar chants here so these are nothing surprising to me but seeing your reaction is priceless, Thank you for brightening up my morning!.
@@ryamporter221 it's about bitterness yes, but religion? I wouldn't say so. Do the fans of the so called bigot clubs (rangers and celtic) even know the religion of the players playing for them? I'm a Rangers fan, really don't like celtic but don't give a damn about the religion of their fans or players.
Best chant ever is "let's pretend we scored a goal"...UA-cam it. Also fergie is Darren Ferguson....son of Alex Ferguson. Both a managers....Darren was arrested for assaulting his wife. I'm assuming that's what the chant is about.
I remember being in the North Bank at Highbury back in the 80's when we played West Ham with Tony Cottee. The week before he'd been photographed coming out of a brothel and it was printed in the Sun. He denied doing anything and said that he went there with his mates and he just sat in the bar. Our keeper spooned a goal kick straight to him on the edge of the area, right in front of the North Bank. The keeper just stood there knowing he wasn't going to get there, as he lined up the empty net. The whole of the North Bank went silent and you could hear every fan draw in their breath as they knew how lethal he was in front of goal. He swung his leg, connected with the ball...and put the ball 5 yards over the crossbar. 2 seconds later all you could hear was a mass collective 'You couldn't score in a brothel! Score in a brothel!' The great ability of the British and football fans to think so fast on their feet and make a joke out of a situation.
When you have to be so polite all week and the stress is building up, you just let rip over the weekend at the footie match and your worries disappear lol

Sure there’s bad language and it can get lively, but that’s all tied to passion for the club. And let’s be real: what’s a few swear words and some shouting going to do to you!? That’s part of the charm for many. There can be violence too, but in the vast majority of cases, British fans don’t turn to violence. It’s only when you look at the fans of some other clubs and realise that going away to somewhere like Juventus or Roma in the champions league and sitting in the wrong end can actually get you stabbed, that you realise British fans are pretty hospitable. They mainly only get in trouble overseas for drinking.
The “OOOOHHHH YOU FAT BASTARD” on the goal kick was funny as hell. It’s gotta be hard being a goalie because a massive majority of the time the fans behind your goal are the ones that are absolutely crazy
I’m not a football fan, but I got to experience the iconic Scotland vs Italy chant “We’re gonna deep fry yer pizzas” when I was on holiday. A lot milder than these, but still hilarious when it being belted out by 100+ voices.
Classic!
Brilliant!
My Scottish granddad owned a chipshop and used to do a deep fried pizza.
Deep fried pizza from a Scottish chippy is one of the things I miss now that I don't live in Scotland anymore
Everyone talks about Americans deep frying anything, but the Scots made deep fried Mars bars
Favorite one was when Wayne Rooney was at Everton; 'He's fat. He's Scouse. He'll rob your fucking house. Wayne Rooney! Wayne Rooney!
or He's bald, he's French, he's always on the bench. Frank Leboef.
I hate that I can hear this XD

Was at a game where there was a marriage proposal on the pitch at half time. The whole away end started chanting. "You don't know what you're doing". Then the home fans joined in, it was amazing.
There was one at a Palace away game and we sang "She's just too good for you"
We had that at a Wolves match. The crowd started singing to the bloke "Say goodbye to all your friends"
I think there was wedding at Stoke on "Don't Tell The Bride". Same chant
These are all glorious
I've never been into football at all but I absolutely love the chants that the crowds do during matches.
It truly is an important part of British culture.
I love Slade so that Adam Johnson chant especially was pure art.
Rhyming 'Johnson' with 'noncing'- that's poetry worthy of Wilde. Beautiful.
I have never been more proud to be British. Brought a tear to my eye this.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a ‘is this a library’ chant on here. That’s a classic, especially if the away team are big underdogs and are winning at the ground of a big club, with all their fans silent.
You're not singing, you're not singing, you're not singing anymore
Is this a library is the worst chant going, whenever I heard fans singing it I like to think it’s because they genuinely have never been in a library before because they can’t read.

To be fair compared to Scotland, it's not. Football is way more important up in Scotland than down South, even if recently we've been shite. Scotland tops the most-watched league per Capita by some mile than any other league in Europe by the local population.

Football chants in the UK are spontaneous and organic, they're not contrived. Some don't make it and disappear into thin air, but some do and go around the ground. Best ever.

@@highpath4776 That screams out Chelsea...but I've never heard of a blues fan that prefers the Spuds to Arsenal(?)
Part of the reason the chants are so well organised is away fans, they'll travel in coaches or on the train together and share the knowledge.
So one week it might be 1 small group of fans who have the chant, by the next week it's a choir
"My budgies cage is bigger than this, got a perch and a mirror" absolutely did me in. Give that man a medal, or at least sub bench.
...or some Trill
Thats my team Sunderland also the dick song both sung at Upton Park West Ham's old home ground priceless
Best one I remember is "Park, Park wherever you may be, you eat dogs in your home country. It could be worse, you could be a scouse, eating rats in a council house." Aimed at Park Ji-sung but also at Liverpool and Everton.

@@maxpowerii7368 That's true, however most teams a have a firm so it's not totally as rare as you would think.

West ham has the hammerettes
One of the few who got the Boris joke. Respect!
The "Fergie" person was Darren Ferguson, his dad Alex is an absolute legend of the game, so that was the dad chant, he was also arrested for domestic abuse and plead guilty, that's where "She said no" came from.
8:30 that's non-league football at it's best; goalkeeper given abuse for 90 minutes but then comes back to clap the opposition fans.
We had a match a bit like that. Our goalie had a whole match abuse, and lost his rag at the end.
He said to me afterwards "I can handle being called fat, and I can handle being called a c*nt, and I can handle the ginger stuff, but the moment you go racist on my centre-back you're going down".
Fairly sure that was a Birmingham game against a non-league team during one of the first FA Cup rounds
@@Relyx Blyth Spartans v Birmingham City. Goalkeepers in the lower leagues must develop a particularly thick skin. I used to watch Colchester United at home games and the fans were merciless towards the opposition keeper.

The noticeable difference between American ball games and British football is that American games are very family orientated and you can all go there for a good time. In the UK, you could at one time take them, but it's definitely not suitable for all family members. Great video. Extremely funny.

For the first 2 chants, Adam Johnson was actually convicted for that. They didn’t just pick a random opposing player. It happened when he was at Sunderland because the lyrics should say “Stadium of Light” (Sunderland’s stadium).

I remember being at games as a kid and sometimes the rowdy lads would be chanting and my dad and his mate would be laughing and I'd say "what they saying dad?" he'd be like "doesn't matter" 😂😂
Same here - I asked my dad what a wanker was as apparently 'We all agree Man United are wankers!". He said he'd tell me when we got home but he must have forgotten 😂
Football in the UK is Tribal and each tribe has its songs. Each Team has a hard core of Fans who sing. they are the only ones who know the rules of the songs, us mere mortals only join in with the basic chants. I was amazed going to Sports events in the USA & Canada that this just does not happen there.
best one ive heard was when liverpool (a rough area) had a manager with a long nose and west ham had a great player called Dicanio, they sang "youve got pinocchio, but we've got Dicanio" and then the others sang back "youve got Dicanio, but we'll nick your stereo"
thats class! One of my all time favourites was in the early days of Christiano Ronaldo being at United he had some allegation of coming on too strong to a girl at a nightclub. The other fans were singing "RO NAL DO. Whenagirlsaysno molesssssstt her." To the the tune of the Re-Rewind by Artful Dodger. Best tune match and lyrics for years at a game, could hear it over the TV hahaha
And west ham area is lovely fuckin rough as tarmac East end rent boy
When DiCanio and Cadette were at Celtic, they used to sing “When then ball hits the net, if it’s not George Cadette it’s DiCanio”

Best chant ever is "let's pretend we scored a goal"...UA-cam it.
Also fergie is Darren Ferguson....son of Alex Ferguson. Both a managers....Darren was arrested for assaulting his wife. I'm assuming that's what the chant is about.
I remember being in the North Bank at Highbury back in the 80's when we played West Ham with Tony Cottee. The week before he'd been photographed coming out of a brothel and it was printed in the Sun.
He denied doing anything and said that he went there with his mates and he just sat in the bar.
Our keeper spooned a goal kick straight to him on the edge of the area, right in front of the North Bank. The keeper just stood there knowing he wasn't going to get there, as he lined up the empty net. The whole of the North Bank went silent and you could hear every fan draw in their breath as they knew how lethal he was in front of goal. He swung his leg, connected with the ball...and put the ball 5 yards over the crossbar.
2 seconds later all you could hear was a mass collective 'You couldn't score in a brothel! Score in a brothel!'
The great ability of the British and football fans to think so fast on their feet and make a joke out of a situation.
The Sky TV one is funny because they were broadcasting live and all you could hear on TV was the chant 😂
When you have to be so polite all week and the stress is building up, you just let rip over the weekend at the footie match and your worries disappear lol
