Jimmy Saville was a British television presenter for the national broadcaster, the BBC. He presented a show called Jim'll Fix It where he 'fixed it' for kids who wrote in to do something they always wanted to do like meet their sports heroes or whatever. After his death many, many people came out and said that he used his position to abuse them. He went to hospitals and was grossly inappropriate with vulnerable people there. He was generally just a despicable person. There are documentaries about it and it was horrible. The BBC knew about it and helped cover it up at the time. It was a national scandal. So he rightly gets a lot of stick for being a nonce, and is used as a comparison for other abusers and paedophiles.
England and GB has been in more wars through the last 1000 yrs then any other country in the world and you are surprised that we can be aggressive! 😁😂🤣 Tbh that isn't aggressive that's just friendly banter.
@@samjenkins2568 yep,very young country, that imported English & British culture & then thought "they" invented it?

@samjenkins2568 Incorrect, the U.S., in other words, the United States of America, as a nation, is two hundred and forty- eight years old.

There were ****many**** nations in what is now known as the United States of America.
Our teams all come from towns cities even villages so you grow up supporting them , they aren’t franchise teams , so they are part of the community , or they used to be . So it used to be that you supported you home town , and you stuck with them win or loose .
I think there's a version of this where the guy explains the references, which might help you guys. Also no this isn't just one group of people, this is all British football fans, the chants are to well known (and often repeatedly used) songs so everyone already knows the tunes. Then someone at the game will start a new version (or may also begin in the pub beforehand) and there's usually a simple repeated rhyme that everyone can quite quickly pick up and sing to the already known tune. Don't forget most of these guys (and girls) have been going to watch the football with their dads since they were kids. ETA: the players hear this stuff every week, that's why they normally aren't phased
5:02 Sky TV is part of the Murdoch just like Fox News. They scheduled match days on weekdays and early Sundays so many couldn't attend live and had to purchase the matches from.. you guessed it, Sky TV.
A lot of these clips are from lower league games. They make up chants as they go along but there are standard chants that are just as cutting! You probably won’t hear these at most Premier league games. Bit of a change from a BTS reaction, eh? 🤣
Years ago Liverpool had players by the names of Dieter Hamman, Steve Finnan, Sylvan Distan and Djimi Traore. The latter scored an amazing own goal by backheeling it on the spin into his own net under absolutely no pressure(its on youtube) Anyway Liverpool fans came up with an amazingly clever chant to the tune of Blame it on the Boogie which went sth like: Don't blame it on Distan Don't blame it on Finnan Don't blame it on Hamman Blame it on Traore.

Football is woven into British cultire and its very tribalistic. Your Football team almost becomes part of your identity. For the most part, people will follow football teams from their own city or follow on from who their Dad supports. There's a saying that you can chamge your wife but you cant change your football team. Chants whilst aggressive on the surface are all part of fan culture and it's expected on both sides, it's rare in the modern era that it spills out into the physical. Lots of chants to happen off the cuff and they're notoriously funny, especially if it ends up with back and forth between the home and away fans. This dynamic happens a lot because of large away fan attendances because of the close geographical proximity of football teams in England. Generally you're no more than 50-150 miles away from your furthest opponents with a lot being within 50 miles. Obviously in the US the distances are so vast for that away support isn't really a thing.
11:01 That's one of those clubs that go up and down in the league system. Relegated one year, promoted next year, relegated again and so on. These have been relegated from Championship to League 1 so they sing that they go on a a league 1 tour and will probably be back in Championship again.
I live in Fife, which if you look at a map of Scotland is to the north of Edinburgh shaped a bit like a dogs head. We have 3.main football teams (although that's pushing the term main to its limits). Now while I played rugby, I'm aware if some of the chants about the rival teams. There is a fairly rundown town (sadly, as a lot of the people and some of the areas in it are nice) called Cowdenbeath. It's near a town called Lochgelly. The chant is to the tune of the Addams Family TV show and goes .. They're dirty and they're smelly They haven't got a telly (TV) They come from near Lochgelly The Cowden family. The other classic is to Always Look on the Bright Side of Life from Monty Python.. . You all live on the shite side of Fife Da dum, da dum da dum da dum 😂 😂😂

No it wasnt. That was my fans, the Birmingham city fans having a pop at the Blythe Spartan goalkeeper. I know coz I watched our highlights after the game. We managed to just scrape a win at 2 - 3 .

Bill Shankly Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.
We know how to chant and join in because of singing in school and because chants are always done to famous songs. You know the tune so you just quickly fit the words in. The chants about people being pedos and Jimmy etc are not just messing around. The people they use allegations against have actually done very bad things. The rest of the time we are pissing about. Yes some of this is heard on TV haha (Sky is a huge company from the US isn't it? They charge us too much for everything.)
As said before, football is who you are, your born into the team you support, good or bad, its said that football is a matter of life and death, its more than that But we support out teams, through good and bad times, ups and downs, Not just for the men, there are plenty women just as passionate as the men, But one thing for a female at football, whether with her friend or solo she is the safest person in the stadium, , she can enjoy the football and the chants, as well as 20.000 securty guards around her. Known as football fans females are protected at all cost,
Me and my mate Susan would go to all the home games of Liverpool. We'd find hot dogs and pie crust in our hoods and spit and gravy in our hair. The men would look out for us. We felt safe.
You basically got it right - one or two friends start a chant and everyone else either joins in or doesn't. And most of the chants are to the same tune or rythem.
I’ve now discovered, as a Brit who lives in America, you really have to know our British culture to understand any of this, we may speak the same language but the US and UK are so different and so separated, Americans have no clue 😭🤣

I just saw this reaction and I cried laughing with your faces 😂😂😂 english football fans are unique. There's real rivalry there but they are so funny and people are used to it. 😂 But they are angels compared to ULTRAS. I suggest you react to Ultras videos. There is a real fanbase in Europe and Latin America and it's serious stuff. And the games with them present are another level, something unimaginable for an american. The football games I loved the most here in Europe, were those with half of the stadium filled with Ultras.😊
A normal match any weekend …. This is why the new American owners want the premiership clubs to play matches in America … although you’ll all need counselling, probably … Swansea is a Welsh side where lonely sheep farmers get fond of their flock, allegedly…. Kiddy family …. Rural Kidderminster team where there isn’t a lot to do …. There was a manager called Dick Advocaat ….. hence the trophy inflatable …
Ha ha . We are fkn mad when it comes to football in this country. You also find the lower in the league a ream is the madder the chant are to adjust for the shtness of the football. Its all in good fun though.Just part of your day out. I love seeing Americans react to our football chants lol

Thanks for the context, didn't know who he was and wasn't sure I wanted to google his name.

I mean it was worse than that. Think the UK version of Epstein. Helping other powerful people also abuse children
you missed out that he also interfered with the dead too, including his mothers corpse. there was over 500 victims in total.

And don't friend him on Facebook!
i dont think the woke pc brigade will stop these chants because the fans would ignore them😂😂😂😂😂
We are the PC brigade. Just because we sing at football doesn’t mean we’re bellends outside the ground.
Boris chant is referring to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
Mezit ozil his eyes are offside was another one.
Not aggressive - just all good fun!
In the uk it’s just classed as a laugh … if you can’t take don’t be there , it just British humour
The humour is everything! The language and themes are pretty harsh but the wit and creativity make them fabulous!
The first tune was "Cum On Feel the Noize" is a song by the English rock band Slade, which was released in 1973 as a non-album single.
Covered in the US by Quiet Riot.
Budgie - a tiny Australian parakeet that's very popular as a pet in the UK.
From which Australians get that a Man's swimsuit might be used for smuggling Budgies : *Budgie Smugglers*
@@EarlJohn61 I know. It's quite spoilt budgies and men in tight swimwear for me! (SO tempted to say "Who's a pretty boy then?" when seeing the latter!)
As you can tell, there is no malice in the chants, it's all goofy banter 😁
No prisoners taken. There was a Scottish goalkeeper who got diagnosed with schizophrenia and his own fans sang “there’s only two Andy Gorams” when he returned to the team
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jimmy Saville, TV personality, was a notorious sex offender. Adam Johnson, former player, is a convicted sex offender. There are better compilations imo.
Came here to say this. Also the Boris one was because the security guard looked like Boris Johnson former prime minister of UK.
Who asked?
makes me crease when sky tv catches some strays 🤣🤣🤣 no one is safe to the chants
The cricket can be just as funny when the fielders get close to the stands 😂
Phew, they only explored the polite chants.
Ohhhh there’s more???? We need to see them’
@@JohnReavesLive
The bad ones are banned but you can find the "Park" one and the "Adebayor" one, hehe.
@@JohnReavesLivethere's way more
@@darthwiizius Park one: Park, Park wherever you may be, you eat dog in your home country, could be worse, could be scouse, eating rats in your council house
Adebayor: Adebayor, Adebayor, his dad washes elephants and his mom's a whore
@@JohnReavesLivetheres way way more…
Bill Shankly
Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.
Never a truer word said. He came from the same Scottish mining area as my dad. A Legend
He made the people happy!
Yeah, lots of our chants are set to well known songs… always witty, top banter, core part of our culture, we love it
We know how to chant and join in because of singing in school and because chants are always done to famous songs. You know the tune so you just quickly fit the words in.
The chants about people being pedos and Jimmy etc are not just messing around. The people they use allegations against have actually done very bad things.
The rest of the time we are pissing about.
Yes some of this is heard on TV haha (Sky is a huge company from the US isn't it? They charge us too much for everything.)
As said before, football is who you are, your born into the team you support, good or bad, its said that football is a matter of life and death, its more than that
But we support out teams, through good and bad times, ups and downs,
Not just for the men, there are plenty women just as passionate as the men, But one thing for a female at football, whether with her friend or solo
she is the safest person in the stadium, , she can enjoy the football and the chants, as well as 20.000 securty guards around her. Known as football fans
females are protected at all cost,
Me and my mate Susan would go to all the home games of Liverpool. We'd find hot dogs and pie crust in our hoods and spit and gravy in our hair. The men would look out for us. We felt safe.
Have you seen the chants from the Ryder Cup ?
"There's only one Molinari"
Rory McElroy playing Stewart Cink - "He's got more hair than you"
The tune for Adam Johnston was originally a song called Cum On Feel The Noize by British band Slade
Yes a small group, one comes up with it, they practice on the bus and infects the large crowd, using familiar tunes and chants.
I grew up in pubs and honestly match days were fucking hilarious
litrally just british energy same thing happens in school with kids
We had a great chant in school it was funny that none of the teachers at first realized what we were singing
@@irenecaird6688 impromptu class sing along were ours, like stopped the lesson entirely and wouldn't shut up until we were done
Ha-ha! Are we just fantastic or what?
Its bloody good banter!
You basically got it right - one or two friends start a chant and everyone else either joins in or doesn't. And most of the chants are to the same tune or rythem.
Some of the tunes are:
Guantanamera
Come on feel the noiz (Slade)
Guide me O Thou Great Jehovah
Yankee Doodle
Adam Johnson did go to prison
And you DAAARE saying Soccer......well well well... :)
Don’t be a snowflake bab. 😁
NFL shouldn't be called "football".....it should be called "hand-egg"
As a Newcastle fan, i was very proud of the first few chants!
Tbh not that aggressive, you want to hear how we can talk to our besties and work colleagues
The best/funny reaction on youtube is Man united fan especially when they lost match to bitter rival Liverpool 😊
Goldbrige and the Korean guy? when they lost to Chelsea and then Palace was golden
NO Aggression at all this is english banter/ humour. if you watch Britain’s football hooligans 80s/90s now thats aggression 😂😂
And all this without a single cheerleader, organist or marching band in sight!
Liverpool has the best chants - actually more like songs. Not just club chants - songs for individual players!! Mint!!
Yanks will never challenge the British humour
I’ve now discovered, as a Brit who lives in America, you really have to know our British culture to understand any of this, we may speak the same language but the US and UK are so different and so separated, Americans have no clue 😭🤣
American athletes would need therapy after a english crowd.
😂😂😂
Some people think football is a matter of life and death, I tend to disagree and can assure them it's much more important than that! Best quote in history to describe how serious we take it over here
Bill Shankly IIRC?
Oh God, that was funny. Can’t beat the crack in a football crowd. 😂
I just saw this reaction and I cried laughing with your faces 😂😂😂 english football fans are unique. There's real rivalry there but they are so funny and people are used to it. 😂
But they are angels compared to ULTRAS. I suggest you react to Ultras videos. There is a real fanbase in Europe and Latin America and it's serious stuff. And the games with them present are another level, something unimaginable for an american. The football games I loved the most here in Europe, were those with half of the stadium filled with Ultras.😊
If it's not a well known chant usually someone will come up with something which then literally spreads by word of mouth through the stands 🇬🇧
A normal match any weekend …. This is why the new American owners want the premiership clubs to play matches in America … although you’ll all need counselling, probably … Swansea is a Welsh side where lonely sheep farmers get fond of their flock, allegedly…. Kiddy family …. Rural Kidderminster team where there isn’t a lot to do …. There was a manager called Dick Advocaat ….. hence the trophy inflatable …
Oh by the way, it’s FOOTBALL not SOCCER.
Great video lads.
With the Kidderminster one (Kiddy Family/Addams Family) This could easily be used by opposition during Alabama games just swapping Kiddy for Bama.
Ha ha . We are fkn mad when it comes to football in this country. You also find the lower in the league a ream is the madder the chant are to adjust for the shtness of the football. Its all in good fun though.Just part of your day out. I love seeing Americans react to our football chants lol
He looks like Boris the mayor at the time!
the chants work like magic, when you're in the crowd you just know the words and there's no explanation for it!
They are battle-cries and we are pretty good at fighting, we practice on each other all the time 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
that adam johnson chant is one of my favourite things I've ever seen, I come back to admire it often!
Its great when the opposition fans appreciate a good chant
Take my grandchildren to football every other week, they love the footie , I love the chants. Great atmosphere and all in great fun.
Most fairytales are German, as a kid the old lady who lived opposite us had a German fairy tales book it was horrific. A man got his thumbs cut off, another story a we girl got burnt to death because she was playing with matches,she ended up a ashes her cats cride over the ashes, kids remember that stuff.
That is why they are The Brothers GRIM(M)..lol
There's a standard base of chants and they're adapted to different people/places. That's why the whole crowd can pick up on new chants quickly.
Summed up in one word: Brutal.
If this happened in the US, “Super Bowl fans go mental. And in other news, two planes have crashed into the world trade centre…”
Was comppete opposite to this when i grew up in upton park...home of west ham United..was funny and scary when millwall were on their way
No aggression just having the crack
That's us enjoying ourselves 😂
Th crowd singalong mentality comes from being forced to sign hymns in a cold hall in primary school.
