If fans of any sports team in the UK used the "I believe that we will win" chant you could guarantee the oppositions fans will chant back, "I believe you're talking shit".
My team Wolves sing 'fuck em up, get into them' when the team need reminding to try. 'Fight, fight, wherever we will be, we are the boys from the black country'
Ska Steve, this regularly happens (or used to) at Leyton Orient, who had an in-house drummer at home games. Visiting fans would regularly chant, "Who's the wanker with the drum?"
The English fans have no idea how real ultras create a real atmosphere because you don’t have such culture. England has compared to the other big 4 leagues the worst fans and atmosphere. The Seattle guy is the one who animates the other ultras, so it is organised. He is giving everything and I love it. England is a small football nation with no fan culture at all

The fact they were chanting 'the referees a wanker' outside of the game just shows how fucking sheepish those people are. They saw british people chanting that.. most likely during a game... directed at a a ref doing poorly n thought 'Im going to do that at our game!' except... they did it outside of the ground.. with no ref..
Do they find out who the ref will be beforehand though? I remember over 2 decades ago, when Celtic and Rangers were playing (Scottish teams) and there used to be a ref who was blatantly biased towards rangers, Hugh Dallas. Maybe they found out who the ref would be for that match and didn't want a biased guy 🤷🏼♀️ In 1999 Hugh Dallas sent off 3 Celtic players, which resulted in fans invading the pitch, him being hit on the head with a thrown coin, and a brick thrown through the window of his home. Bigotry is still alive and well here, and not just amongst fans, it's sad, religion and history should have NOTHING to do with a GAME, in my opinion.

"How do these chants get started?" - Much of it is down to the pub culture in the UK. Before & after the games huge packs of fans will congregate in pubs - they are literally packed full with nowhere to sit - and there is a long history of singing in pubs (although these days it is pretty much only when a match is being played or there's a karaoke night). Then you'll get some loud mouth with a smaller group start singing a song, the group joins in, then the pub full of drunk fans and then, when it gets to the stadium, you get tens of thousands of fans joining in. Many of the songs are based on specific chants or well known pop songs too, so they're easy to pick up even with the words being changed around here and there. There was also the incidence where a RUclipsr (I think he was a RUclipsr) started a chant, and it has become 1 ofd the best known chants around. He just started singing "Will Grigg's on fire! Your defence is terrified!" repeatedly to the tune of "Freed from Desire" by GALA. The track was reasonably well known but not by any means massive, but there was something about the fact that this solo guy who supported Wigan (a smaller English club now in the lower Leagues) rearranging the lyrics to fit so nicely about a Wigan striker who nobody really knew. He sang it so passionately too and, sorry mate wherever you are, he sung it so badly that it just began to catch on. So much is about timing as well - although the song massively exaggerated the fact any defence would be "terrified" of Will Grigg (a striker who nobody outside of Wigan really knew anything about), Grigg was actually on good form and scoring a few goals, getting him a call up for Northern Ireland for the 2016 UEFA Championship. Northern Ireland is a VERY small country and it was the 1st time they had ever qualified for the competition. I don't think Will Grigg even started a game for them, but it just so happened that earlier in the season this 1 RUclipsr Wigan fan had made a song for him and so, of course, EVERYBODY started to sing it at the competition. It doesn't happen very often, ever really, but with a combination of things coming together a RUclipsr making a bit of a fool of himself on camera created 1 of the biggest chants in world football. Nowadays many, many teams have a striker who is "on fire" and has defences "terrified" 😂😂

the tunes have been around for years, the lyrics to new songs usually get started in a pub before the game, by a group and by the time they leave the whole pub knows it. in the ground more people just pick it up from there.

I do remember when my non-league side made it on a decent run in the FA cup we filled every chant with swearing because we knew we would be live on TV.
Steve Gerrard had a team talk at the end of a game, they only had to win the last couple of games to win the league. During the talk you could hear him says no slip ups. Next game the ball was passed to him, he lost it and then slipped trying to win it back. They didn't win the league. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
To understand the video for 'vindaloo' you first have to watch 'Bitter sweet symphony ' by The Verve as it is a parody. They were both filmed on the same street.
The Barbecue song is actually a offical England song called Vindaloo from the 98 world cup. You should react to it. Vindaloo by Fat Les. It's a great atmosphere song unfortunately just got ruined by those American fans looool
@@edwardjakeman1574 no mate it wasn't it was the 98 world cup and three lions also re realsed the same year. Fat les was Keith Allen and Alex James from blur.
Southampton fan here, we once had a player not come back onto the pitch after half time and turned out he'd had to answer a call of nature. He came back out after about 3-4 minutes and from that point on we always sang to him "HE SHITS WHEN HE WANTS, HE SHITS WHEN HE WAAAA-AAANTS, JASON PUNCHEON, HE SHITS WHEN HE WANTS!!" Still sing it to this day if the game's a bit boring (which it frequently is)
@@thefriendlyfishermanuksout6176 Remember Kelvin's testimonial where he went off after a few minutes (as he had an FA Cup final a few days later so was good of Palace to let him play) and he got presented with a roll of toilet paper lol

The chants normally are around for a few months before they’re heard inside the stadium. It starts in the pubs and then the fans there hear it and it spreads on trains and coaches back from away games then the local pubs before the home games and then eventually enough people hear it for it to catch on when someone sings it at the game
Before I start the video. American chants are just tragic from what I've seen. American sports chant examples: 1. Woooohhh wooohhhhhhh woooooohhh! 2. *Repeats sports teams name over and over* 3. We are the best! 4. *Defense/Offense repeated*
Used to to football matches in the late 80's and the chanting was the most interesting thing to me. Amazing how the wit of the crowd would be so quick.
Last year they was an American lad who came to watch the mighty Leeds United FC he's never heard the atmosphere so loud intimidating ruthless before but he bloody loved it at Leeds United FC and wants to come again
Would be hilarious to have a pissed up British footy fan grab ahold of a mic in an American stadium and start up a chant, even if nobody joined in, he has a mic haha
I think you should sing along with british football chants with more of a British accent! Since I'm only a few hours away from you (and british), I'm willing to teach you! haha
I apologize with the american fans but when I hear "this is Atalanta" played with a poor drum or "I believe that we will win", as european I feel these chants quite patetic in comparison with our tribal ones.
As an American. I hope we get to play the British in a football match in the future. I can only imagine the fucked up shit the British will come up with 😂
The viva john terry chant was after the 2008 European cup final. He slipped when taking what could have been the winning penalty, Manchester United won it. We gave him a standing ovation next time Chelsea came to old Trafford. The Park one is about park ji sung from South Korea and he has ask the united fans to stop singing it now. He was a fan favourite.
Love the vids JT I would suggest trying to get into football and supporting a team. Just one rules tho is pick a team and stick with them because it’s frowned upon to change what team you support
@@amethystlarktree5962 At what point did he say support a team cause someone told him to? He said get into football and pick a team you like. Totally different. You're making shit up!
Not meaning to be condescending JT, but it's clear to me that some of the American fans are desperately trying to copy the British chants, but trying to put their own slant/angle on it. It's not far away, but they need to add some humour into them too. Do American games have away supporters? That is what creates the banter and atmosphere when two sets of fans are launching tirades of abuse at each other. One thing to remember about British fans - they are brutal, cruel, and barring racist chants (which is very rare and rightly frowned upon) there is no level they won't go to to insult the other team and their supporters. I've supported Birmingham City for years, been up and down the UK with them. Now and again, there would be a particular fan of the other team (usually a fat guy, or someone wearing outrageous clothes, thinking they look good) who would be cruelly targeted, singled out, and abused throughout the game with all kinds of chants. But, as harsh as it sounds, it's all taken in good humour, no offence is taken because, well, that's just the way it is. 🤣🤣
"Kevin Nolan you're chicken is dead" 😂 Kevin Nolan played for Newcastle United at the time of that clip, when he scored he did a chicken celebration, it was the fans of my team Sunderland AFC singing, Sunderland and Newcastle are fierce arch rivals
They changed Vindaloo ( UK chant) too BBQ…..guess it makes a bit of sense I suppose…..both foods,…. and I’m guessing you don’t have much call for Vindaloo ( 🔥 curry) thanks JT, made me chuckle 👍🏽
For context with the barbeque chant, it’s based on an english song called vindaloo, which is sung generally for international tournaments, but the English version is much better, and is also an actual song rather than just a chant
On the train to the Scotland Vs Israel game and the chant of choice was 'Stevie Clarke eats Spaghetti oot the tin' and my nephew (he's 4) goes 'I like Spaghetti out the tin' and someone shouts 'Stevie Clarke eats pizza wae a spoon'. And the entire place bursts out laughing.
Back in the 70s there was the football wars where rival football teams literally fought eachother. Especially between towns or city's that had two football teams like Manchester.
I love these videos. I don't care who you support in the UK but British football fans will never be beaten for terrace chants. We can be brutal at times but it's part of our game and the guys who create these chants are f**king geniuses! Hilarious,brutal and more often than not truthful.
JT. Sorry this is totally unrelated to today's video but don't forget that tomorrow - Friday 5tb November, is bonfire night. Enjoy your bonfire and get yourself some fireworks to go with it xxx
Yeah this one being in the video kinda ruined it for me. Made me go from thinking about how much I love our ridiculous British chants to how much I hate football hooliganism and the pervasiveness of racism in our society...
There was another chant that featured Arsenal's Togolese International Emmanuel Adebayor that came about following a terrorist shooting that occurred in January 2010 as the Togo national football team travelled by bus through the Angolan province of Cabinda on the way to the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations tournament. "Adebayor, Adeboyor, he used to like coach trips................but not any more !"
Some context behind the "Kevin Nolan your chicken is dead chant" Kevin Nolan use to do a chicken celebration when he scored so I'm guessing he was having a bad game and obviously didn't score😂
Best thing I ever saw a football crowd do was Villa fans celebrating winning a corner the season they got relegated. Sometimes you just gotta see the glass half full.
I’m not really a football fan myself but we definitely go hard with our chants 😁 I absolutely love your videos JT definitely think you should have been born a Brit and not an American 🥰

The American chants seem to be stuff that people have heard from British football games and are just repeating it without knowing the context of the chant
Some context for some of these songs. The BBQ song is actually an English song called Vinderloo by Fat Les it's from the 1998 world cup. We still sing this every major tournament along with Three Lions. The chicken is dead chant is in response to Kevin Nolans wing flap goal celebration. The Adebayor chant is racist and is implying his dad washes elephants because he is African. This along with the Park Ji Sung chant about eating dogs as much as they are humourous they are racist. John Terry slipped when taking his penalty in the 2008 Champions League Final. Had he scored they would have won the title but they went on to lose. The "are you a man or a woman," "Caroll show us your tits" & "Get your tits out for the lads" are directed at Andy Caroll because he has long hair in a ponytail. The "Kiddy Family" chant I think is directed at people from Kidderminster being inbred. My favourite of them all is the Steve Gerrard chant. Gerrard was with Liverpool from childhood and then professionally from 1998 - 2015 Despite having chances to leave for better clubs and have a better chance of winning the premier league, he stuck with his childhood club. He was for the majority of his career their best player and captain and dragged them up. He is a legend to Liverpool fans. In 2014 Liverpool were in with a shout of winning the Premier League. It was the business end of the season and they were favourites. After beating Man City in a massive game he was seen saying to his teammates in a huddle "We do not let this slip" Two weeks later in a game against Chelsea the ball is passed to Gerrard and he slips over. The ball goes to Demba Ba and he is through on goal as scores. Chelsea would go on to win the game 2-0 and Liverpool would 3 games later finish the premier league 2 points of the top. Gerrard never got the chance to win the Premier League and Liverpool would go on to win it without him 5 years after he left. That chant will be around for some time.
The Barbecue song is based on the English chant of “Vindaloo” so it was us who rhymed something stupid with “we’re gonna score one more than you” Look it up if you get a chance!
That Barbecue chant was to the theme of an song made for England "Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na, we're gonna score one more than you, England!" - a song by Fat Les called Vindaloo
Its not though,it is a boring 3 word chant about a geriatric senile gentleman. We would have probably gone with. There's only one joe biden A packet of sweets A cheeky smile Biden is a fucking pea do file.
that Barbecue chant comes from a British song called "Vindaloo" by Fat Les........it made the charts in the UK, and features a great video! And being British means we're modest because the actual words of the song are "We're gonna score ONE more than You!!"... it has a very catchy(and repetitive) chorus that goes....." Na na na, na na na, na na na, na na na, na na....well, you'll soon get the idea!!!'
The chant "we're gonna score 3 more than you, barbecue.. is taken from the England national football team song called vindaloo,it goes "we're gonna score 1 more than you,England" it is one of the best England songs in my opinion..
As a south londoner i feel no matter how much we explain these chants, no American will truly understand why we chant them. Some are Abhorrent but inside a stadium its a free for all, surely wouldn't call anyone an elephant man on the street.
“I believe that we will win” must be the American version of “the three lions” it’s coming home, it’s coming home, it’s coming, football’s coming home.
If fans of any sports team in the UK used the "I believe that we will win" chant you could guarantee the oppositions fans will chant back, "I believe you're talking shit".
Yeah, was thinking the same thing tbh
Justification for a good glassing IMO
And would probably get "is this a nursery" if you did the days of the week one
I Think they will just laugh.
Not even that. You'd have your own fans turning on you thinking "shut the fuck up" 😂
"I believe that we will win" has to be the most tragic chant in the history of our species

It actually filled me with existential dread
I can imagine an English football crowd chanting that, just with a heavy layer of sarcasm and irony.

@@i_can_c_u_2295 The worst part is that he never took penalties
the tunes have been around for years, the lyrics to new songs usually get started in a pub before the game, by a group and by the time they leave the whole pub knows it. in the ground more people just pick it up from there.
Oh. Not enough swearing, insults or banter. Where’s the imagination?! Lol!!! Please don’t stop your vids. Makes my day much better!

I thought it was well funny, good adaption, and a respectful nod to england fans,, bbq instead of vindaloo,, lol, brilliant!
The chants in most cases can simply start from one or a few people and it just gets picked up by more and more people
When I hear “I believe we will win” I just thought “aww that’s cute 🥺” and when I hear British ones it’s just so funny 😂
I do remember when my non-league side made it on a decent run in the FA cup we filled every chant with swearing because we knew we would be live on TV.
"There's gotta be so many fights at these games."
There's a reason the stadiums are swarming with police before during and after a match.
And we separate fans

Steve Gerrard had a team talk at the end of a game, they only had to win the last couple of games to win the league. During the talk you could hear him says no slip ups. Next game the ball was passed to him, he lost it and then slipped trying to win it back. They didn't win the league.

It was the only (almost) passable one.
To understand the video for 'vindaloo' you first have to watch 'Bitter sweet symphony ' by The Verve as it is a parody. They were both filmed on the same street.
They take out songs then take all the glory..
Sounds familiar!
The fact they have to upgrade it from ‘score one more than you’ to ‘score 3 more’ 🤦♂️
He should react to all the England songs that came out for the world cups and euros that’s a video I could get behind
The Barbecue song is actually a offical England song called Vindaloo from the 98 world cup.
You should react to it.
Vindaloo by Fat Les.
It's a great atmosphere song unfortunately just got ruined by those American fans looool

UK's win and when you add the backstories it's even more brutal/funny
Southampton fan here, we once had a player not come back onto the pitch after half time and turned out he'd had to answer a call of nature. He came back out after about 3-4 minutes and from that point on we always sang to him "HE SHITS WHEN HE WANTS, HE SHITS WHEN HE WAAAA-AAANTS, JASON PUNCHEON, HE SHITS WHEN HE WANTS!!"
Still sing it to this day if the game's a bit boring (which it frequently is)
Remember it well 🤣🔴⚪🔴⚪
Play up Pompey!!!

Try drumming at a UK game and you can guarantee the opposing fans will start singing "If you can't bang a bird bang a drum" on repeat.
Kevin Nolan was a player who used to do a chicken ‘dance’ after he scored. So the song is basically mocking him for not scoring in a long time
Hello 👋 how are you doing??
We don't need someone with a mike to tell us what to shout, it just happens.
The chant leader is the thing that makes me cringe
The chants normally are around for a few months before they’re heard inside the stadium. It starts in the pubs and then the fans there hear it and it spreads on trains and coaches back from away games then the local pubs before the home games and then eventually enough people hear it for it to catch on when someone sings it at the game
Before I start the video.
American chants are just tragic from what I've seen.
American sports chant examples:
1. Woooohhh wooohhhhhhh woooooohhh!
2. *Repeats sports teams name over and over*
3. We are the best!
4. *Defense/Offense repeated*
you forgot USA USA USA
Used to to football matches in the late 80's and the chanting was the most interesting thing to me. Amazing how the wit of the crowd would be so quick.
Last year they was an American lad who came to watch the mighty Leeds United FC he's never heard the atmosphere so loud intimidating ruthless before but he bloody loved it at Leeds United FC and wants to come again
American football be like “yo you can bring a gun in but you’d better not say one of them dirty cuss words!”
“I believe that we will win” must be the most pathetic chant in history lmao
Would be hilarious to have a pissed up British footy fan grab ahold of a mic in an American stadium and start up a chant, even if nobody joined in, he has a mic haha
I think you should sing along with british football chants with more of a British accent! Since I'm only a few hours away from you (and british), I'm willing to teach you! haha
I remember seeing Royal Antwerp do something similar. They sing a lot of English chants, but with Belgian accents.
John Terry missed a penalty in the champions league final. He could have scored the winning penalty, but slipped and missed it.
I apologize with the american fans but when I hear "this is Atalanta" played with a poor drum or "I believe that we will win", as european I feel these chants quite patetic in comparison with our tribal ones.
As an American. I hope we get to play the British in a football match in the future. I can only imagine the fucked up shit the British will come up with 😂
@@josueewald9664 luckily for you mate, England vs the USA in Qatar in November for World Cup Group Stages
"Americans" are all people who live in the American Continent, not just in the united states
The viva john terry chant was after the 2008 European cup final. He slipped when taking what could have been the winning penalty, Manchester United won it. We gave him a standing ovation next time Chelsea came to old Trafford.
The Park one is about park ji sung from South Korea and he has ask the united fans to stop singing it now. He was a fan favourite.
Kind of done my head in that he was absolutely bopping to the John terry chant
Love the vids JT I would suggest trying to get into football and supporting a team. Just one rules tho is pick a team and stick with them because it’s frowned upon to change what team you support
Nah nobody should 'support' a random team just because someone has asked them to. It's something you should have passion for or else it's just fake.
@@amethystlarktree5962 I said try. if he gains liking to a team then invest his time I’m not swing he should I suggested
@@amethystlarktree5962 At what point did he say support a team cause someone told him to? He said get into football and pick a team you like. Totally different. You're making shit up!
my favourite football chant over here is you're getting sacked in the morning
Not meaning to be condescending JT, but it's clear to me that some of the American fans are desperately trying to copy the British chants, but trying to put their own slant/angle on it. It's not far away, but they need to add some humour into them too. Do American games have away supporters? That is what creates the banter and atmosphere when two sets of fans are launching tirades of abuse at each other. One thing to remember about British fans - they are brutal, cruel, and barring racist chants (which is very rare and rightly frowned upon) there is no level they won't go to to insult the other team and their supporters. I've supported Birmingham City for years, been up and down the UK with them. Now and again, there would be a particular fan of the other team (usually a fat guy, or someone wearing outrageous clothes, thinking they look good) who would be cruelly targeted, singled out, and abused throughout the game with all kinds of chants. But, as harsh as it sounds, it's all taken in good humour, no offence is taken because, well, that's just the way it is. 🤣🤣
I could be wrong but the whole 'elephant' thing looks a bit like a way of addressing the , er, elephant in the room...;-)
Oh the ingenuity.....
Unless it's Southampton and Portsmouth, all offence is intended 🤣🔴⚪🔴⚪😇
"Kevin Nolan you're chicken is dead" 😂 Kevin Nolan played for Newcastle United at the time of that clip, when he scored he did a chicken celebration, it was the fans of my team Sunderland AFC singing, Sunderland and Newcastle are fierce arch rivals
You’ll never walk alone, the iconic Liverpool chant
First sang by Manchester United…
@YaDaPro you’ve probably never even been to Liverpool 🤡
I hear it was changed during COVID to you’ll always walk alone
@YaDaPro But you can't deny the fact Manchester United was the first football team to sing you'll never walk alone lmao
6:35 the geezas just nicked vindaloo and changed it to bbq, good originality there 😂😂
Dude watch you'll never walk alone in Australia. Spine tingling!
“Let’s pretend we scored a goal” 😂😂
They changed Vindaloo ( UK chant) too BBQ…..guess it makes a bit of sense I suppose…..both foods,…. and I’m guessing you don’t have much call for Vindaloo ( 🔥 curry) thanks JT, made me chuckle 👍🏽
I assumed that was England fans at first, I didn't think Americans would have known that song lol
Just imagine if one of these English crowds ended up going to an American stadium and chanting this 😂
For context with the barbeque chant, it’s based on an english song called vindaloo, which is sung generally for international tournaments, but the English version is much better, and is also an actual song rather than just a chant
On the train to the Scotland Vs Israel game and the chant of choice was 'Stevie Clarke eats Spaghetti oot the tin' and my nephew (he's 4) goes 'I like Spaghetti out the tin' and someone shouts 'Stevie Clarke eats pizza wae a spoon'. And the entire place bursts out laughing.
lol Scottish banter is world class 😂
You do the best reaction videos. I love football and the atmosphere at games in England are even better then videos seem. Great video!
That Atalanta one was hilarious, it reminded me of those people at Westboro when they yell at cars.
No
" Score more then you barbecue " The American stole the tune from the England football song Vindaloo but changed the lyrics
Back in the 70s there was the football wars where rival football teams literally fought eachother. Especially between towns or city's that had two football teams like Manchester.
Most notorious is probably West Ham vs Milwall
I love these videos. I don't care who you support in the UK but British football fans will never be beaten for terrace chants. We can be brutal at times but it's part of our game and the guys who create these chants are f**king geniuses! Hilarious,brutal and more often than not truthful.
That barbeque one is a complete rippoff of "Fat Les - Vindaloo" which is actually an England football song.
The dad washes elephants is a racist slur.
Fun fact: I live in Kidderminster, but I’m definitely not part of the Kiddy family 😂😂
Yeah and “you eat dogs in your home country”
@@Thomashorsman yes, classy aren’t we? 🤦🏻♀️
JT. Sorry this is totally unrelated to today's video but don't forget that tomorrow - Friday 5tb November, is bonfire night. Enjoy your bonfire and get yourself some fireworks to go with it xxx
“Your dad washes elephants” is because he’s from Togo in Africa so it a bit racist
Yeah this one being in the video kinda ruined it for me. Made me go from thinking about how much I love our ridiculous British chants to how much I hate football hooliganism and the pervasiveness of racism in our society...
"Fight and win" is I never thought and heard most ridiculous football chant in my life, our chant is have lots of sense of humour 😄👏
No contest. Americans just can't do football on or off the pitch.
There was another chant that featured Arsenal's Togolese International Emmanuel Adebayor that came about following a terrorist shooting that occurred in January 2010 as the Togo national football team travelled by bus through the Angolan province of Cabinda on the way to the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations tournament. "Adebayor, Adeboyor, he used to like coach trips................but not any more !"
The referees a wanker!,,, a timeless classic! and good to see americans speaking proper english. lol respect!
Chanting it outside the stadium and not during the game though 🤣🤣🤣....
You should watch the fans singing Sunshine on Leith after Hibs won the 2016 Scottish cup final. Beautiful
Not a hibs fan but that was such an amazing moment and after waiting so long to win the cup.
@@darrencampbell5145 me neither but my nephew is and was there giving it large
Some context behind the "Kevin Nolan your chicken is dead chant" Kevin Nolan use to do a chicken celebration when he scored so I'm guessing he was having a bad game and obviously didn't score😂
The brits could literally stick to one melody or tune and they would still come up with a thousand brilliant versions.
As a Brit, we literally do
@@amateurchef9992 can’t agree more we mange some how 😂

The American chants seem to be stuff that people have heard from British football games and are just repeating it without knowing the context of the chant
Some context for some of these songs.
The BBQ song is actually an English song called Vinderloo by Fat Les it's from the 1998 world cup. We still sing this every major tournament along with Three Lions.
The chicken is dead chant is in response to Kevin Nolans wing flap goal celebration.
The Adebayor chant is racist and is implying his dad washes elephants because he is African. This along with the Park Ji Sung chant about eating dogs as much as they are humourous they are racist.
John Terry slipped when taking his penalty in the 2008 Champions League Final. Had he scored they would have won the title but they went on to lose.
The "are you a man or a woman," "Caroll show us your tits" & "Get your tits out for the lads" are directed at Andy Caroll because he has long hair in a ponytail.
The "Kiddy Family" chant I think is directed at people from Kidderminster being inbred.
My favourite of them all is the Steve Gerrard chant. Gerrard was with Liverpool from childhood and then professionally from 1998 - 2015
Despite having chances to leave for better clubs and have a better chance of winning the premier league, he stuck with his childhood club. He was for the majority of his career their best player and captain and dragged them up. He is a legend to Liverpool fans. In 2014 Liverpool were in with a shout of winning the Premier League. It was the business end of the season and they were favourites. After beating Man City in a massive game he was seen saying to his teammates in a huddle "We do not let this slip" Two weeks later in a game against Chelsea the ball is passed to Gerrard and he slips over. The ball goes to Demba Ba and he is through on goal as scores. Chelsea would go on to win the game 2-0 and Liverpool would 3 games later finish the premier league 2 points of the top. Gerrard never got the chance to win the Premier League and Liverpool would go on to win it without him 5 years after he left. That chant will be around for some time.
The Barbecue song is based on the English chant of “Vindaloo” so it was us who rhymed something stupid with “we’re gonna score one more than you”
Look it up if you get a chance!
English fans: *being racist about Adebayor*
Reaction dude: *’is that a compliment?’*
Racist lol listen carefully, it's not nice but far from racist.
That Barbecue chant was to the theme of an song made for England "Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na, we're gonna score one more than you, England!" - a song by Fat Les called Vindaloo

The Barbecue chant is a swipe of Fat Les Vindaloo - which is based on British chants..
JC you need to get your ass to a game in England and feel the vibe in the stands, it's really out there.
Scottish fans are better imo
that Barbecue chant comes from a British song called "Vindaloo" by Fat Les........it made the charts in the UK, and features a great video! And being British means we're modest because the actual words of the song are "We're gonna score ONE more than You!!"... it has a very catchy(and repetitive) chorus that goes....." Na na na, na na na, na na na, na na na, na na....well, you'll soon get the idea!!!'
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
You need to react to Liverpool FC singing You’ll never walk alone, especially against Barcelona 2019, or against Bayern Munich 2019
Liverpool have the shittest chants in the football league, united have some bangers taking the piss of Liverpool
Not talking about chants, I’m saying in terms of listening to the anthem. Tranmere rovers have some of the funniest chants in the football league like
"Your dad sells Avon" is a good classic 😆
British Football chants are brutal - but fun!
Hello 👋 how are you doing??
The chant "we're gonna score 3 more than you, barbecue.. is taken from the England national football team song called vindaloo,it goes "we're gonna score 1 more than you,England" it is one of the best England songs in my opinion..
You should do more football chant reactions from Europe JT you will love them
As a south londoner i feel no matter how much we explain these chants, no American will truly understand why we chant them. Some are Abhorrent but inside a stadium its a free for all, surely wouldn't call anyone an elephant man on the street.
What did they do to Vindaloo? 😱😱
“I believe that we will win” must be the American version of “the three lions” it’s coming home, it’s coming home, it’s coming, football’s coming home.
If you knew the back story behind all these British chants you’d find it 100X funnier trust me 🤣💀💀
