The difference between the US and UK fans chants can be summed up like this... USA - Defence clap clap clap... Defence clap clap clap... UK - Right lads, I've just composed a song making reference to the opposition centre forwards recent drink driving conviction and current lack of for... I've set it to the tune Clair de Lune. I'll count us off...
It's absolutely brutal... God help you if you do something stupid and get singled out by the other fans. You will not be left alone. Anything goes except for racism, picking on those with disabilities and wives and kids. Ok, wives are total fair game 😂😂😂
@@TheLondonForever00These days there are certain etiquettes to British Chants but back in the 90's anything was fair game, look at the Park Ji Sung one in this video, that was sung BY the ManU fans 😂😂
Bit of context: the Park chant was for Park Ji-sung who was a South Korean player for Manchester United, he was interviewed about what he thought about the Man Utd fans chanting that at him, he said he thought it was hilarious
I dunno, I remember when Margaret Thatcher died and all the Scottish fans were singing "Maggies in a box, in a box, MAGGIES IN A BOOOOOX, dadadadadadada da da da, Maggies in a Box, In a Box...." Fucking cracked me up when I heard that! Of course it had all the right wing tv presenters in England frothing at the mouth with rage, which just made it even sweeter lol. The Scots are probably the only ones who can rival the English for brital chants. They don't give a fuck, the Scots. It's why I love em lol
That on hits different tho because the Scottish were famous for deep frying marsbars So for the Scottish that's like saying their gonna burn down venice
A few years ago the new public library in Birmingham was lit up in the colours of Aston Villa one of the 2 football teams in the City......

I forgot where I heard it from, but what I heard was - If a British team started singing "I believe that we will win", the opposite will sing "I believe you're talking shit" in response.

To be fair I think the barbecue one is at least quite witty. It's an American spin on our old England football song "Vindaloo" but, if you don't know the England song, it does seem very random to hear them singing about BBQ
That's the worst thing about it. If they'd simply adapted the words to make them relevant it would be fine. But they missed the point entirely with the "we're gonna score 3 more than you" Other than 3+ winning margins being rare, the point of the original wasn't about claiming dominant superiority, but saying "yeah, we can scrape through"
Yeah i think its the fact they took it too far and lost the original meaning that makes it cringe I mean ....you dont NEED to score 3 more to win ....and the chant is quite hollow when your crap 😂
think the issue with it is the 3 more than you, it suggests your playing against lesser opposition all the time, granted it might have been a one day thing, but the one more than you is a boast of being able to overcome any challenger.
American's "we're the freest country on the planet, we can say almost anything we like" Also American's (if they stole our chants correctly) security comes along and drags you out of the stadium, the police come and drag your ass off to jail. English fans singing these chants, not one single eyebrow raised by the security, stewards or police at the grounds. Now, the reason for the 2 completely opposing events happening, American's believe that ANYTHING said to them is a personal attack and the "offender(s) MUST be punished, meanwhile in England, even if the song is a VERY personal one to you or your family, we have the common sense to know that it's all said in jest, winding up the opposition and their fans, taking the piss out of them, but no0one takes it seriously. There are one or two occasions when it is taken seriously, not just by the fans, but by the clubs involved and the police, is when the mindless minority of people, I won't call them fans as they clearly aren't fans, they're mindless morons who try to take the piss out of the devastating events of Munich (for Manchester United) and Hillsborough (for Liverpool) and as huge a rivalry as there is between those 2 clubs, genuine supporters of both come together on the anniversaries of those tragedies/ Apart from those, and one or two other less well known events, almost anything goes with our fans and their chants
Ironic how America calls itself "the land of the free" but they can't take a joke. Us Brits can say anything and most people will take it as a joke and laugh at it
The Seattle one was piss poor 😂 I love the kiddy family one. Made me laugh so hard. They manage to do it in unison every time & it never disappoints. USA free speech 😂
My wife divorced me and In court she stated I love Arsenal more than her.. The judge turned to me and asked me if that's true? I replied: I love Tottenham more than her!!!😂 Decree absolute granted.
If you guys in the States think football is boring, just look at what my team, Sheffield Wednesday have just done this last week. Then tell me it's boring. An unbelievable story.
@@denzino4905 too busy looking what anti-depressants and other drugs they can get, during the hours of advertisements during the matches. Compared to the 20 minutes I watched during half time and pre extra time during the Sheffield Wednesday v Peterborough match. In almost 2 1/2 hours of action. I'm still in disbelief, I'm a Wednesday fan.
@@denzino4905 And to top that off, we've got our local rivals Barnsley in the final at Wembley. What an atmosphere that'll be. Especially when you'll have family members of both teams probably traveling down together. It's like our last match of the season against Derby County, with friends and family on different sides. I'm smack in the middle between Derby and Sheffield.. So we've got Derby, Forest, Rotherham, Wednesday, Sheff Utd, Chesterfield, Notts County, Barnsley fans etc. all in our friends and family groups.
The 'Adams Family Chant' I believe was directed at 'Kidderminster Football Club' who family oriented fans call themselves 'the kiddy family' The 'Harry Potter' chant was because the fans thought one of their players looked like Voldermort. There is a story behind many if not all football chants here in the UK. Also it is humor (even if dark) and fans take it as well as dish it out, it's part of the passion and atmosphere on match day.
You can't fake passion, it's not a numbers thing America gets huge sporting events with huge crowds but still only uses simple chants, but it never sees anything on the same passion levels as much of the world not just the UK has, not sure if it's to corporate controlled and upsetting the sponsors is the last thing America wants, is it true that The Super Bowl is all about the advertisements and so much time is put aside just for Ad space. it'll be interesting to see if anyone has answered this difference between our sporting events
I hate it when people in the U.S. say football is "boring". If you're from the UK or anywhere else in the World it's exhilarating. And if you're from the UK reading this, I'm a Sheffield Wednesday fan..... So you'll understand the ups and downs I've just experienced. From distraught last Friday to absolutely living in disbelief for the last few days. No one can tell me football is boring after the week I've just witnessed. Now onwards to Wembley. Fingers crossed for promotion to the Championship. WOW.
@@shaun-hoppy And good luck in the final. Good result against Bolton earlier. Was hoping you'd win. Obviously I hope the Owls win. But I'd rather we lose to you than Bolton. It's gunna be a reyt wik in serth Yorkshire. Ton o banter mi duck. And plenty of both sets o fans dern here in north Derbyshire too.
Hi guys really enjoyed this video I'm from England and I regularly go to watch my football team and it is always like that here It's interesting to see how different the us fans are compared to the uk 🇬🇧 thanks for posting guys take care Al 😀
English football chants are often tongue in cheek and hilarious. Sometimes off the cuff. Bear in mind fuelled by hours of drinking before kick off haha. There are some that are pretty bad but overall we boss the chants for humour and taking the piss out of our own team and the other team and the away fans etc
You don’t all throw a C word, or F word in with your football chants? That’s a bit sad! You need some English over there to teach you some appropriate football chants. If you’re not insulting the other sides mothers…….you’re not doing it right 😂🏴
Football fans in the UK are savage, they'll go after the ref, the other team, their team and then the TV crew. (There was a game recently where you could hear the crowd on live TV chanting at one ex-player present inh the game to f*ck off and all the people presenting with him were buckling with laughter) There's some great ones if you look for the most brutal/savage fan chants I think you'd be in pieces at
Omg guys! Being a British woman ive heard som of these chants and its kind of a tradition. We are brilliant at insulting people😂 Your people let their down!!😂
7:00 That chant is a tribute and a take on Liverpool as the people living in the Merseyside are called scousers. Park is Korean that played for my team in England, Manchester United and in Korea they eat dogs, but it could be worse because he could be a scouser eating rats in the English version of the American housing projects.
Classic British terrace culture. Some of these are fairly tame to be fair. Ripping the piss out of the opposition at any and all opportunity is a Saturday afternoon treat.
I was at Old Trafford for the Chesterfield v Middlesbrough FA cup Semi final years ago. Chesterfield were robbed. I've been to Old Trafford lots of times when my team, Sheffield Wednesday were up there doing well. I still remember Brian Kidd rushing into the pitch, because you had to beat us for a chance to stay in the title race. You were very lucky, and went on to win the title. Two great goals very late on from Mark Hughes, to win 2-1. Wednesday were a bit of a bogey team to you back then. Great ground, amazing fans.
Hopefully we'll be up there again in a couple of years. What a play off semi final we've just witnessed over the 2 legs. Made history. And 96 points and not getting automatic promotion was heartbreaking. We hit a bad spot after beating Newcastle United in the cup. Got too big for our boots
Kinda feel sorry for a couple of those American fans. You can tell they watch a lot of football with some of the chants being tributes but they're stuck in a strange place where people don't really get it
In the UK anything other the some extreme hard racism is a go. U could go to a game just to listen to the fans over the game itself sometimes. Anything goes and if your team sucks in a game u can bet the fans will make a chant humiliating there own team and players for it.
that "fight and win" Geezer wouldnt last half a second in the Uk if he started that nonsense....... and while on that topic, any guesses where that microphone would go?????
When I started going to football in the mid eighties it was far more brutal than it is now,on the terraces packed together you saw the same faces every other week and songs were made up off the cuff,if an opposing player had been in the papers they got annihilated and often the crowd really got under their skin I saw David Beckham have a nightmare because of the stick the crowd were giving his wife.Great fun back in the day.😂
The best one will always be Andy Goram, there’s a common chant “there’s only one ” which is a common positive chant. Well poor Andy Goram got diagnosed with schizophrenia so fans took to singing “there’s only two Andy Goram” 😂
I remember Hearts v Celtic & giving Jonathan Gould who was in goal for Celtic absolute dogs abuse. Tbf he took well & gave a bit back. At HT he was subbed through injury. His deputy got same treatment but didn't take as well. He got really agitated which gave us the green light to crank up the abuse. It was funny. The abuse really rattled him which certainly helped with a rare win against Celtic.
Jack Wilshire, the Arsenal player at the end there, was fined £40,000 for calling his team's North London rivals Tottenham "shit"... It ain't all free speech here.
as a German i am proud of these 10 Atlanta fans^^. Looks stupid, but you stand behind your club and try to create good mood. 200 men more and it sounds awesome
here in scotland, we love to take the piss out of american chants (at least all us rugby players do). i have a voice recording of someone in the middle of the hallways on the way to class screaming the "fight and win" chant over and over again💀
Love the reactions haha. Its all fun banter between fans here in the UK. On the odd chance you're ever in the UK, id happily take you to a game all on me. Great vid 😂👌🏻
😆 you guys should watched the culture clash reaction channel. the brit husband gave great context to these brits chants.. and with the explanation, made these chants even funnier, and honestly totally brutal 🤣😅🤣🤣
Hiya Dream Team Gang, 2 Americans went to our local professional team, and they stated to sing "I Believe We Can Win" the crowd either ignored them or told them to shut up, as American did you think this was cringy or good? this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England
Americans don't chant they cheer and people lead those "cheers". British football chants are part war cry and the crowd spontaneously decides what to chant.
Imagine you’re laying on a stretcher, you’re a gone for months, perhaps the rest of the season, perhaps you’ve an injury that you’re gonna be there to some extent forever… and then they all chant in unison like that… it’s so unreasonable 😂😂😂 But on the other hand, you have to admire the ingenuity, and the fact that they can just come up with something on the spot, and everyone is just on board.
Can I just say you are never winning a argument with us english, we just leave you baffled with our insults, go and ask any American who played MW2 aged 25to 30 they will tell you what went down 😂
What's cool is a lot of the chants use tunes we all know. (There's a number of Welsh ones that are perfect for it). If you have the balls,you shout the words of your chant out to the tune. about 2 seconds later (if the fans like it) the whole side of a stadium is singing your lyrics😂👍
One of the best ones I heard was away fans singing.. "If you sh*g your mum, sit down!" And a whole section of the Home crowd, stood up.. This isn't regional or tribal for us English.. It is personal, fellas. A lot of us work for minimum wage and the Premier League is upper middle class.. F#kin money men.. So we go to our local teams, love them, good or bad and have a great time, a good pie with gravy and chips(not f£ckin French fries). and usually watch our team lose but enjoy ourselves. 7:10 ,
Football in the uk it not a sport it a way of life there is a famous saying made by bill shankley "Football is a matter of life and death it more important than that" most fans have been supporting their favourite teams since they are born because their parents make the loyalty to their teams go in their blood there have been times where groups of mens are in the pub and all they r doing is watchin footy and talking about footy for hours and hours they will literally talk bout nothing else apart from whose round of drinks is next
I do have to say being British myself we are a rowdy bunch for sure and the chants are on point the atmosphere of a British football game i dont think your find anywhere else in sports around the world
It's funny that America has total freedom of speech yet you'd quickly be removed from a stadium if you sang like the British do.
Americans absolutely do not have total freedom of speech tbough hahaha

Now, the reason for the 2 completely opposing events happening, American's believe that ANYTHING said to them is a personal attack and the "offender(s) MUST be punished, meanwhile in England, even if the song is a VERY personal one to you or your family, we have the common sense to know that it's all said in jest, winding up the opposition and their fans, taking the piss out of them, but no0one takes it seriously. There are one or two occasions when it is taken seriously, not just by the fans, but by the clubs involved and the police, is when the mindless minority of people, I won't call them fans as they clearly aren't fans, they're mindless morons who try to take the piss out of the devastating events of Munich (for Manchester United) and Hillsborough (for Liverpool) and as huge a rivalry as there is between those 2 clubs, genuine supporters of both come together on the anniversaries of those tragedies/ Apart from those, and one or two other less well known events, almost anything goes with our fans and their chants
Ironic how America calls itself "the land of the free" but they can't take a joke. Us Brits can say anything and most people will take it as a joke and laugh at it
The Seattle one was piss poor 😂 I love the kiddy family one. Made me laugh so hard. They manage to do it in unison every time & it never disappoints. USA free speech 😂
That guy was so proud of himself. Looking around like "look at me, I can shout three words".
My wife divorced me and In court she stated I love Arsenal more than her..
The judge turned to me and asked me if that's true?
I replied:
I love Tottenham more than her!!!😂
Decree absolute granted.
Kevin Nolan used to dance the chicken when he scored
If you guys in the States think football is boring, just look at what my team, Sheffield Wednesday have just done this last week. Then tell me it's boring. An unbelievable story.
A lot of Americans find football boring because their attention spans are short as fuck.
@@denzino4905 too busy looking what anti-depressants and other drugs they can get, during the hours of advertisements during the matches. Compared to the 20 minutes I watched during half time and pre extra time during the Sheffield Wednesday v Peterborough match. In almost 2 1/2 hours of action. I'm still in disbelief, I'm a Wednesday fan.
@@denzino4905 And to top that off, we've got our local rivals Barnsley in the final at Wembley. What an atmosphere that'll be. Especially when you'll have family members of both teams probably traveling down together. It's like our last match of the season against Derby County, with friends and family on different sides. I'm smack in the middle between Derby and Sheffield.. So we've got Derby, Forest, Rotherham, Wednesday, Sheff Utd, Chesterfield, Notts County, Barnsley fans etc. all in our friends and family groups.
We've won promotion today. In a record breaking season for Sheffield Wednesday.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The 'Adams Family Chant' I believe was directed at 'Kidderminster Football Club' who family oriented fans call themselves 'the kiddy family' The 'Harry Potter' chant was because the fans thought one of their players looked like Voldermort. There is a story behind many if not all football chants here in the UK. Also it is humor (even if dark) and fans take it as well as dish it out, it's part of the passion and atmosphere on match day.
You can't fake passion, it's not a numbers thing America gets huge sporting events with huge crowds but still only uses simple chants, but it never sees anything on the same passion levels as much of the world not just the UK has, not sure if it's to corporate controlled and upsetting the sponsors is the last thing America wants, is it true that The Super Bowl is all about the advertisements and so much time is put aside just for Ad space. it'll be interesting to see if anyone has answered this difference between our sporting events
I hate it when people in the U.S. say football is "boring". If you're from the UK or anywhere else in the World it's exhilarating. And if you're from the UK reading this, I'm a Sheffield Wednesday fan..... So you'll understand the ups and downs I've just experienced. From distraught last Friday to absolutely living in disbelief for the last few days. No one can tell me football is boring after the week I've just witnessed. Now onwards to Wembley. Fingers crossed for promotion to the Championship. WOW.
@Enki of Sumer funny enough am a Barnsley tyke small world
@@shaun-hoppy ye mi duck, tha reyt theer lol. I live in Chesterfield.
@@shaun-hoppy And good luck in the final. Good result against Bolton earlier. Was hoping you'd win. Obviously I hope the Owls win. But I'd rather we lose to you than Bolton. It's gunna be a reyt wik in serth Yorkshire. Ton o banter mi duck. And plenty of both sets o fans dern here in north Derbyshire too.
Looked at t' odds. 8/13 us, 5/4 you. I'm backing your lot. At least I'll get a few quid if we lose.
Hi guys really enjoyed this video I'm from England and I regularly go to watch my football team and it is always like that here It's interesting to see how different the us fans are compared to the uk 🇬🇧 thanks for posting guys take care Al 😀
English football chants are often tongue in cheek and hilarious. Sometimes off the cuff. Bear in mind fuelled by hours of drinking before kick off haha. There are some that are pretty bad but overall we boss the chants for humour and taking the piss out of our own team and the other team and the away fans etc
The beginning is just cringe 😂
frfr what the fuck lmaooooo
😭
You guys are the best reaction channel on UA-cam 🤣🤣🤣 keep it up, funnier than some of the chants
Great stuff lads! We are bloody brilliant at chanting ha-ha!
You don’t all throw a C word, or F word in with your football chants? That’s a bit sad! You need some English over there to teach you some appropriate football chants. If you’re not insulting the other sides mothers…….you’re not doing it right 😂🏴
Sports in the US is very much a family affair.
So you would likely be kicked out if they sang many of the ones in Europe by the organizers.
@@Londronable Sports in the UK is a family affair too. It's just that our children swear too.
Football fans in the UK are savage, they'll go after the ref, the other team, their team and then the TV crew. (There was a game recently where you could hear the crowd on live TV chanting at one ex-player present inh the game to f*ck off and all the people presenting with him were buckling with laughter)
There's some great ones if you look for the most brutal/savage fan chants I think you'd be in pieces at
You would come to love football if you came and watched it in person in England
For any non UK fans check out the Adam Johnson chant 😂😂 guarantee you will be laughing 😂😂
Omg guys! Being a British woman ive heard som of these chants and its kind of a tradition. We are brilliant at insulting people😂
Your people let their down!!😂
Man or a woman is to Andy Carroll that had long hair and used to play with a pony tail.
Most of those were tame... British footie fans can be brutal
Hi guys some of the football chants you hear from the UK are very much outstanding and very funny.
7:00
That chant is a tribute and a take on Liverpool as the people living in the Merseyside are called scousers.
Park is Korean that played for my team in England, Manchester United and in Korea they eat dogs, but it could be worse because he could be a scouser eating rats in the English version of the American housing projects.
It shouldn’t be a chant due to it being total hypocritical 😂
People in Manchester drink puddles out of potholes in their street 😂
@@joshg2603 alright mate, I’ll give you that about our potholes. Our roads are fuckin shite 😂
React to the English National team chants. That'll blow you away.
Sorry what, you mean god save the queen?
@@DDBaby03no, that's the national anthem before the match begins.
It's not uncommon for us to chant "we are fucking shit" when we're losing.
The Brits chant spontaneously no matter where you are in a football crowd whereas the Americans really are more isolated.
You can see the thousands of years of war cries in our genes shining through here
Trust me lads. This isn't even the worst. Look at england funniest chants.
The Adam Johnson chants a savage
Classic British terrace culture. Some of these are fairly tame to be fair.
Ripping the piss out of the opposition at any and all opportunity is a Saturday afternoon treat.
The guy at 1:59 gives me 1st year Neville Longbottom Vibes 😂😂
"You can't say that"
We'll say what we fuggin want thank you very much
Sorry fellas,the American ones are embarrassingly cringey.
I was at Old Trafford for the Chesterfield v Middlesbrough FA cup Semi final years ago. Chesterfield were robbed. I've been to Old Trafford lots of times when my team, Sheffield Wednesday were up there doing well. I still remember Brian Kidd rushing into the pitch, because you had to beat us for a chance to stay in the title race. You were very lucky, and went on to win the title. Two great goals very late on from Mark Hughes, to win 2-1. Wednesday were a bit of a bogey team to you back then. Great ground, amazing fans.
Hopefully we'll be up there again in a couple of years. What a play off semi final we've just witnessed over the 2 legs. Made history. And 96 points and not getting automatic promotion was heartbreaking. We hit a bad spot after beating Newcastle United in the cup. Got too big for our boots
I was also at Wembley when we beat you in the League Cup final, with a Johnny Sheridan scorcher.
loved your reaction brothers would love more your awesome!
BVB ,UK and another Europe Football is phantastic
The Adams Family remix is wild 😂😂😂😂😂😂
World Cup 2026 should be interesting in US/Canada/Mexico
Kinda feel sorry for a couple of those American fans. You can tell they watch a lot of football with some of the chants being tributes but they're stuck in a strange place where people don't really get it
In the UK anything other the some extreme hard racism is a go. U could go to a game just to listen to the fans over the game itself sometimes. Anything goes and if your team sucks in a game u can bet the fans will make a chant humiliating there own team and players for it.
Fight and win guy is brilliant. He'd be escorted from a British game by other fans because he's obviously not well.
What's really funny is the last clip is the actual Arsenal team asking those questions. Absolute class from Wilshere
that "fight and win" Geezer wouldnt last half a second in the Uk if he started that nonsense....... and while on that topic, any guesses where that microphone would go?????
Exactly, both sides would turf him out, as a disgrace to a footy chant, might get a few slaps too?
When I started going to football in the mid eighties it was far more brutal than it is now,on the terraces packed together you saw the same faces every other week and songs were made up off the cuff,if an opposing player had been in the papers they got annihilated and often the crowd really got under their skin I saw David Beckham have a nightmare because of the stick the crowd were giving his wife.Great fun back in the day.😂
The best one will always be Andy Goram, there’s a common chant “there’s only one ” which is a common positive chant. Well poor Andy Goram got diagnosed with schizophrenia so fans took to singing “there’s only two Andy Goram” 😂
@@joefraser2583 Yeah I forgot about that one.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I started going as a kid mid 80’s with my dad . Always remember the Chelsea lot singing about celery and throwing celery around
I remember Hearts v Celtic & giving Jonathan Gould who was in goal for Celtic absolute dogs abuse. Tbf he took well & gave a bit back. At HT he was subbed through injury. His deputy got same treatment but didn't take as well. He got really agitated which gave us the green light to crank up the abuse. It was funny. The abuse really rattled him which certainly helped with a rare win against Celtic.
Jack Wilshire, the Arsenal player at the end there, was fined £40,000 for calling his team's North London rivals Tottenham "shit"... It ain't all free speech here.
Luis Suarez really does bite the players lol
as a German i am proud of these 10 Atlanta fans^^. Looks stupid, but you stand behind your club and try to create good mood. 200 men more and it sounds awesome
Can’t beat a quality English match day experience 🤣
Our British accent makes it so much better
"I aint never seen an elephant get a bath"
Fk me sideways you 2 are hilarious 😂😂😂
What cracks me up on the last vid, it was the Arsenal players starting the chant. 😄😄
They loved it even without understanding thr context
We are not as polite as we would have you think!
My favourite spurs song is the arsene wenger one (packet of sweets, cheeky smile) or the Sol Campbell one 😂
Haha so remember singing the Wenger one when we played Arsenal🤣🤣
here in scotland, we love to take the piss out of american chants (at least all us rugby players do).
i have a voice recording of someone in the middle of the hallways on the way to class screaming the "fight and win" chant over and over again💀
Love the reactions haha. Its all fun banter between fans here in the UK. On the odd chance you're ever in the UK, id happily take you to a game all on me.
Great vid 😂👌🏻
😆 you guys should watched the culture clash reaction channel. the brit husband gave great context to these brits chants.. and with the explanation, made these chants even funnier, and honestly totally brutal 🤣😅🤣🤣
Hiya Dream Team Gang, 2 Americans went to our local professional team, and they stated to sing "I Believe We Can Win" the crowd either ignored them or told them to shut up, as American did you think this was cringy or good? this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England
And those same Poms call us Aussie's feral convicts!?!? 😂
Robin Van Persie and Di Canio chants were the best ones
your youtubes are soooooo underrated
Americans don't chant they cheer and people lead those "cheers".
British football chants are part war cry and the crowd spontaneously decides what to chant.
Fans pay through the nose so we have the right to sing what we want🤣😝. If they banned us, they'd lose money.
Imagine you’re laying on a stretcher, you’re a gone for months, perhaps the rest of the season, perhaps you’ve an injury that you’re gonna be there to some extent forever… and then they all chant in unison like that… it’s so unreasonable 😂😂😂
But on the other hand, you have to admire the ingenuity, and the fact that they can just come up with something on the spot, and everyone is just on board.
Alright lads...UK footie games are sooo family friendly aren't they?😂
Weve had a lot of practic my friends,, funny, thanks for the laughs lads.
This is Atlanta is a fan group that read the list of ingredients but forgot the method 😂
Can I just say you are never winning a argument with us english, we just leave you baffled with our insults, go and ask any American who played MW2 aged 25to 30 they will tell you what went down 😂
American chants will forever be a meme to the rest of the world hahahahahaha
English football games are hysterical, youve got to go to some. Even when we're playing bad and losing we FIND rhe funny side of it.
You should go to a british football match the atmosphere is amazing
This is so funny. thanks for sharing.
What's cool is a lot of the chants use tunes we all know. (There's a number of Welsh ones that are perfect for it). If you have the balls,you shout the words of your chant out to the tune. about 2 seconds later (if the fans like it) the whole side of a stadium is singing your lyrics😂👍
You’ve got some catching up to do Stateside 😂
The buzz in a English stadium on match day is something magic...every team has there own songs and chants..Middlesbrough fc 👍
We love football man 😂 and all dignity gets left at the turnstiles on the way in 😂😂
that last totenham one killed me,
One of the best ones I heard was away fans singing.. "If you sh*g your mum, sit down!" And a whole section of the Home crowd, stood up.. This isn't regional or tribal for us English.. It is personal, fellas. A lot of us work for minimum wage and the Premier League is upper middle class.. F#kin money men.. So we go to our local teams, love them, good or bad and have a great time, a good pie with gravy and chips(not f£ckin French fries). and usually watch our team lose but enjoy ourselves. 7:10

Football in the uk it not a sport it a way of life there is a famous saying made by bill shankley "Football is a matter of life and death it more important than that" most fans have been supporting their favourite teams since they are born because their parents make the loyalty to their teams go in their blood there have been times where groups of mens are in the pub and all they r doing is watchin footy and talking about footy for hours and hours they will literally talk bout nothing else apart from whose round of drinks is next
I do have to say being British myself we are a rowdy bunch for sure and the chants are on point the atmosphere of a British football game i dont think your find anywhere else in sports around the world
The “this is Atlanta “ is on the verge of over taking “fight and win” for being the most shit 😂
