We British love chanting, you can generally tell the attitude of a crowd depending on how aggressive the chant is, the subject and so forth. Its a very British thing and its both brilliant and bizzare.
The "fat goalkeeper" played for Blyth Spartans, a non-league (minor league) team against Birmingham City in the FA Cup. There's a video of him getting stick from the Brum fans for about 20 minutes. When the match ended he clapped in appreciation and the Brum fans reciprocated.

The Red Sox reference was about the Boston Red Sox who adopted Sweet Caroline as their anthem years before it became a thing at football games here in in the UK
A few years back my team Gillingham Fc in the third teir of English football had a goalkeeper who was a little chubby, so the fans sneaked in celery sticks to throw at him from behind the goal. And he was on our team!
Jimmy Saville was a famous TV personality who did the equivalent of "Make A Wish". He was from Leeds (although people forget he was a Liverpool fan), and ever since he was outed as the monster he was, Leeds United fans have been the subject of being mocked over it. We generally receive "Jimmy Saville - he's one of your own", and we reply with something associated with the team singing it. So, for Swansea (a Welsh team) it's "he shagged all your sheep", Huddersfield (nicknamed the Terriers) it's "... all your dogs" and so on. By the way, almost half of these clips are Leeds fans. One of if not the most hated club in the country thanks to the 1970s. There's just too much context to give, sorry! 😅
Easy there Loidis lad, we all know Millwall is the most hated club in the UK. Sure all the Londoners hate Leeds, but tbf they hate everyone in the north...
@@mikey-mot Last season up here half time u wouldn't even barge the Bobbys out the way, we did. You lot melted back to the away end...

"is this a dick joke" - going down and straight back up... I almost chocked on my drink with laughter!. In England the football teams play in leagues.. if you are towards the bottom of the league you play in you get relegated to the league below at the end of the season.. The teams who finish at the top of the lower leagues then get promoted (And replace the relegated teams). No Dick joke here :)
Guys you need to realise this is fun but this also a serious battle cry for country or club these men are not only having fun they hyping themselves up and will fight in a split second so it may be fun to you but this is serious in the UK and we do have fun with it but its a battle cry to show the world or region that the soldiers ready for fight !
22:12 "Going down but straight back up" means that your team got relegated but will be just promoted the next season. The European football league system has tiers. In that chant's context, the lads chanting must be from a Championship team (the second tier of English football). The said team goes down a tier, to League One, which is the third tier of English football.
Football crowd culture in the 70's 80's was insane. Huge fights, in and outside the stadia. Leaders of packs all knew each other. They would pre-arrange a meet at xyz etc. It was basically a working class revolution against their pathetic existence.
When they said Women would be terrified, took me back to the 1970s in Wolverhampton, there was female skinheads in the North Bank that Men were terrified of.
The two finger salute comes from when a major section of the army was the longbow men. Those two fingers were essential and they were waved at the enemy. If caught those two fingers would be chopped off! The fingers must face outwards. It goes back a loooong way to the 1300s!
Stumbled across you guys because I searched for Bohemian Rhapsody, then I end up down a rabbit hole of your innocence when it comes to British humour and terminology that doesn’t really translate, you are visibly shocked that you must be bad if you’ve ended up in a chant!
21:43 Props to them for the positively on their relegation from the Championship to League One. They're going down to League One, straight back up to the Championship.
That`s the way to take it unless it happens to Manchester United or something. Mancunians would set fire to the city of Manchester if that every happened.
Don't let negative comments let you down. Over the past twelve months, I have been in lockdown whilst living alone and I have found your channel very entertaining. It's not like watching a chat programme but it is more like you sitting in the same room and us watching something together. Thank you for saving my sanity.
Hi !! History records that at the battle of Agincourt, the English longbow men destroyed the French army. The French said that they would chop off the two fingers of the bowmen to stop them using a longbow ever again. When the battle was won the longbow men held two fingers up as a sign of contempt !!!
Very late to the punch here, but the earliest record of that "explanation" dates to the 1970s, and people have been doing the two-finger salute much longer than that. In other words: it's an urban legend.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart in England lol thank you for making these videos lol I’m crying here. It’s a lot of fun at a football match for sure lol.
Wait your opposition fans are put together? Thats madness lmao there would be a bloodbath here if that happened Edit: look up the old football ‘firms’, gangs of supporters that would meet up outside the stadium and beat seven shades of shit out of each other.
I went to a baseball match in New York when I was over there a few years ago. We took the subway to get to the stadium, and there was a mix of fans in the carriages. One fan starting saying how they were going to beat the other team very loudly, I was like "oh hell no I want to get off" expecting a fight. He was just ignored. It was at that moment I realised American's have no true passion for sports. It's literally just something they enjoy.
@@blitzwing1 Oh, the violence back then has definitely died down, but there's still some matches where the rivalry is so strong that the police still come out in force to manage the entry/exit of fans. I know when I last went to a match pre-covid and it was against our nearest rivals, they were held back half an hour, police still lined the streets and barricades were put up directing their fans directly to the train station to try and get them on their way sooner. There were still some fights, but they were just idiots. And then you've got Millwall fans. Different level again.
@@04williamsl yes, I couldn't agree with you more, well said! I have suggested to them that they visit our little family friendly club to get a full flavour of banter but there again, No One Likes Us!
I am going to make this my last football chants video, I’m waking up in a morning singing things like “it wasn’t savile, it was Gary Neville” and worse 😅
@@imunro007 Don’t! That’ll be the next one I can’t get out of my head. Before your comment I’ve had a medley of “he’s eaten the drum/shit haircut my lord” 😅
I remember going to salford red rugby matches & the chats were ruthless. Got into a few fights during & after the matches, with my school mates (aged 9).
The thing to remember about the first chant (adam Johnson) it's the Newcastle (my home city) Sunderland game and there is a lot of "history" behind that rivalry. I still think the Police have a policy of no leave any time those game get played. Luckily enough they've been in different leagues for the last few years. No sane person would be in town when those games were played in either Newcastle or Sunderland. Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out but Sky TV in the UK and Fox in the USA are owned by Rupert Murdoch so yes they can be :-)
This is not only persuading me to go to America and try these chants at an NFL game. But also made me realise Americans have an even smaller understanding of sarcasm than I thought.
The 2nd one about Adam Johnson was recorded at The Union Rooms bar in the city centre of Newcastle upon Tyne and its a decent place for a pint. Also where i met my now wife on a blind date nearly 15 years ago. Fond memories 🤣🤣🤣
Oh FYI most opposition Goalkeepers get the fat chants no matter what their build, like a traditionally way of trying to put the opposing keeper off. A game I went to years ago, when the fans chanted “fatty give us a wave” at the keeper. He actually waved with a smirk.
I second this watch the cheese rolling and then realise that contrary to belief the rugby players at the bottom are not just there to stop them the idea is a full on rugby tackle
I went to Burnley v Millwall they ripped out the seats and threw them but they were old wooden seats and mostly hit their own fans at the front 😂 different breed.
When I first started going to matches back in the seventies and right through to the late nineties you had to plan how to avoid the violence. Of course if you were into that you could find it easily by entering the other teams 'manor' e.g. pubs, areas.. Going 'away' (meaning travelling to another ground ) was the highlight of the week, but with care. Sometimes, before the 'firms' became dominant it could be unavoidable particularly before segregation. I remember going to London games back in the eighties and the police would show you enamel pin badges inside their lapels of their uniforms supporting the home team and you knew it wasn't only the home fans you had to deal with. I have to admit if I had to do it all again I would: scary, funny, joyous and ugly but defiantly memorable. KRO. A quid is a pound. A slapper is a loose woman. An Aston Villa fan is a Viler or wanker.
Excellent post, my experience of travelling with Newcastle in the 70s & 80s, as your Brum. I'll mention an evening game at St Andrews when we tormented David Speedie verbally all night, and he tormented us on the pitch.. We've all sha**ed ya wife Speedie 😁😝 Eta, happy fuckin days
They teach us to sing in unison young here, starts off in primary school assemblies with Christian hymns and eventually we graduate to sport chants 😂 Also only football separates fans because its so violate, but rugby has mixed seating and still chant like this
Any football game you'll hear similar chants it's all part of the day at the match , football is a passion here 🇬🇧✌️ nice video great reaction ,a quid is a pound so basically forty pound 👍

You guys are bloody awesome keep up the great work respect from England 🇬🇧
No,we don't hold back guys..these chants don't even raise eyebrows in UK.
Funny seeing your reactions.👍
Thank God there are still people out there with a sense of humour :)

little did they know… Sweet Caroline is basically the national football anthem for England
Red Socks. You are thinking of a different song for the rugby.
not really tho. if you want a polular song, 7 nation army is the one to pick
@@quentinh3140 no one would sing 7 nation army. I was at a pub in the euros this year, we beat germany and they played sweet Caroline in the pub. Everyone singing word for word. Was brilliant.
'Northern Irish'
The Red Sox reference was about the Boston Red Sox who adopted Sweet Caroline as their anthem years before it became a thing at football games here in in the UK
Great reactions, both of you. I was going to explain a few clips but I couldn't be arsed.
A few years back my team Gillingham Fc in the third teir of English football had a goalkeeper who was a little chubby, so the fans sneaked in celery sticks to throw at him from behind the goal. And he was on our team!
Jimmy Saville was a famous TV personality who did the equivalent of "Make A Wish". He was from Leeds (although people forget he was a Liverpool fan), and ever since he was outed as the monster he was, Leeds United fans have been the subject of being mocked over it.
We generally receive "Jimmy Saville - he's one of your own", and we reply with something associated with the team singing it. So, for Swansea (a Welsh team) it's "he shagged all your sheep", Huddersfield (nicknamed the Terriers) it's "... all your dogs" and so on.
By the way, almost half of these clips are Leeds fans. One of if not the most hated club in the country thanks to the 1970s.
There's just too much context to give, sorry! 😅
It’s so funny how they ask if jimmy savile is bad to me (I’m English)
Easy there Loidis lad, we all know Millwall is the most hated club in the UK. Sure all the Londoners hate Leeds, but tbf they hate everyone in the north...
Hahaha, "people forget he was a Liverpool fan". I'm a red but that made laugh 😂😂
I literally heard him once claim to be a Man U fan but he wasn't a football fan at all really.
MOT
Big thank u for reacting to my video
Not yours dude, mostly Leeds! Chelsea ain't that funny but well done for putting it together 👍
Good video make sure your firmed up wen u come to boro next...... Riverside is waiting.... Gotta wait for us to get back to Premiership tho✌️😂
@@mikey-mot Last season up here half time u wouldn't even barge the Bobbys out the way, we did. You lot melted back to the away end... You NEVER do that, i spent 18moon in armley lived in bramley but Teesside first and foremost.
We should of got Bamford, he's class. Mind u your whole team are.
Till our Next meet.
"is this a dick joke" - going down and straight back up... I almost chocked on my drink with laughter!. In England the football teams play in leagues.. if you are towards the bottom of the league you play in you get relegated to the league below at the end of the season.. The teams who finish at the top of the lower leagues then get promoted (And replace the relegated teams). No Dick joke here :)
Americans Don't understand promotion and relegation.
When I stood on the Kop at Anfield and you got a warm feeling you knew someone had pissed down your leg, old man from Liverpool
Guys you need to realise this is fun but this also a serious battle cry for country or club these men are not only having fun they hyping themselves up and will fight in a split second so it may be fun to you but this is serious in the UK and we do have fun with it but its a battle cry to show the world or region that the soldiers ready for fight !
most of the chants are about jimmy saville and the adam johnson chants are the funniest also quid is just slang for pounds in the UK
Quid slang for pound like buck for dollar.
@@lizcollinson2692 yes

"Going down but straight back up" means that your team got relegated but will be just promoted the next season.
The European football league system has tiers. In that chant's context, the lads chanting must be from a Championship team (the second tier of English football). The said team goes down a tier, to League One, which is the third tier of English football.
I've been on another react channel and there was a comment asking which team Jimmy Saville played for. Priceless!!
"Sweet Caroline"
"Yeah. I think that's a Red Sox thing"
**The Brits disliked that**
Sweet Caroline works and has been used
The funniest part is how catchy they are, it's just crazy. And how quickly they learn a random song
Football crowd culture in the 70's 80's was insane. Huge fights, in and outside the stadia. Leaders of packs all knew each other. They would pre-arrange a meet at xyz etc. It was basically a working class revolution against their pathetic existence.
When they said Women would be terrified, took me back to the 1970s in Wolverhampton, there was female skinheads in the North Bank that Men were terrified of.
@@W0rdsandMus1c I think i might have married one of them.
@@fedup3449 🤣 Hope you are still very happy
No, it was just a load of yobs hitting each other.
It wasn't a working class revolution when they were just battering each other
American football = Rugby with padding
Baseball = Rounders. That’s cricket for primary schoolers.
Hockey is the only badass sport in America
@@Redeemed2Righteousness rounders can be brutal 😁
😂😂😂
@@Redeemed2Righteousness and that's bloody Canadian, and Canada is basically just another place we influence
The two finger salute comes from when a major section of the army was the longbow men. Those two fingers were essential and they were waved at the enemy. If caught those two fingers would be chopped off! The fingers must face outwards.
It goes back a loooong way to the 1300s!
Stumbled across you guys because I searched for Bohemian Rhapsody, then I end up down a rabbit hole of your innocence when it comes to British humour and terminology that doesn’t really translate, you are visibly shocked that you must be bad if you’ve ended up in a chant!
21:43 Props to them for the positively on their relegation from the Championship to League One. They're going down to League One, straight back up to the Championship.
That`s the way to take it unless it happens to Manchester United or something. Mancunians would set fire to the city of Manchester if that every happened.
@@yellyman5483 Man Utd was relegated to the 2nd division in the 74-75 season
I think that is Ipswich
Guys, the fact you're laughing so much tells us Brits you aren't as far behind as you think 😁 great to watch, I've been crying with laughter too.
Don't let negative comments let you down. Over the past twelve months, I have been in lockdown whilst living alone and I have found your channel very entertaining. It's not like watching a chat programme but it is more like you sitting in the same room and us watching something together. Thank you for saving my sanity.
I’m from the uk and this doesn’t just happen at high league games all games have some sort of chants
Jimmy Saville was a monster, hiding in plain sight.
If you sang sweet Caroline, everyone would join in! Trust me on this
Just no.
@@MrYFlyer It's not really uo for debate mate. I'm spitting pure facts
Didn't see them all singing to Fury at the club in Vegas.
@@MrYFlyer what's that got to do with Football? UK wasn't allowed into the US at that point either mate 🤣
What are you on about?
Hi !! History records that at the battle of Agincourt, the English longbow men destroyed the French army. The French said that they would chop off the two fingers of the bowmen to stop them using a longbow ever again. When the battle was won the longbow men held two fingers up as a sign of contempt !!!
Very late to the punch here, but the earliest record of that "explanation" dates to the 1970s, and people have been doing the two-finger salute much longer than that.
In other words: it's an urban legend.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart in England lol thank you for making these videos lol I’m crying here. It’s a lot of fun at a football match for sure lol.
"Is Jimmy Saville this bad?!"
British people: 😂😂
This made my night! Possibly one of the best reactions I've seen to this! So refreshing! You really got it (understood it)! Thanks guys!
Wait your opposition fans are put together? Thats madness lmao there would be a bloodbath here if that happened
Edit: look up the old football ‘firms’, gangs of supporters that would meet up outside the stadium and beat seven shades of shit out of each other.
I went to a baseball match in New York when I was over there a few years ago.
We took the subway to get to the stadium, and there was a mix of fans in the carriages. One fan starting saying how they were going to beat the other team very loudly, I was like "oh hell no I want to get off" expecting a fight.
He was just ignored.
It was at that moment I realised American's have no true passion for sports. It's literally just something they enjoy.
The reason Old Trafford looked so empty is because the away supporters are being kept in the stadium to keep them away from the home fans…
@@blitzwing1 Oh, the violence back then has definitely died down, but there's still some matches where the rivalry is so strong that the police still come out in force to manage the entry/exit of fans.
I know when I last went to a match pre-covid and it was against our nearest rivals, they were held back half an hour, police still lined the streets and barricades were put up directing their fans directly to the train station to try and get them on their way sooner. There were still some fights, but they were just idiots.
And then you've got Millwall fans. Different level again.
@@04williamsl yes, I couldn't agree with you more, well said!
I have suggested to them that they visit our little family friendly club to get a full flavour of banter but there again, No One Likes Us!
I know right. I had no idea they put fans together. Can I imagine over here? Bloodbath 😂😂
I am going to make this my last football chants video, I’m waking up in a morning singing things like “it wasn’t savile, it was Gary Neville” and worse 😅
hahaha mine was HE'S GOT A PLANT POT ON HIS HEAD
@@imunro007 Don’t! That’ll be the next one I can’t get out of my head. Before your comment I’ve had a medley of “he’s eaten the drum/shit haircut my lord” 😅
Mine is the Kiddy family one 😂
@Emma Platt: on another vid I couldn't get "2 world wars and 1 world cup" out of my head and the dad trying to shut the kid up!
Worse still I have the Adam Johnson one in my head 🤣🥴
He said “poor Jimmy Saville”😂😂😂😂
Where you see lots of empty seats its usually before and after the match so people are still coming in or leaving.
I remember going to salford red rugby matches & the chats were ruthless. Got into a few fights during & after the matches, with my school mates (aged 9).
If you go and sing sweet Caroline at an English football game, you shall be welcomed with open arms 😂
I want to see that!! Lol
Yeah every club and probably pub
Especially Liverpool
Sing it in Castleford and you're golden. It's Castleford Tigers anthem (Rugby League)
"Sweet Caroline?"
"I think that's a Red Sox thing"
Dear dear
"who the heck wants Boris Johnson"- well if you've been reading the British tabloids lately his hobby appears to be bonking!
The thing to remember about the first chant (adam Johnson) it's the Newcastle (my home city) Sunderland game and there is a lot of "history" behind that rivalry. I still think the Police have a policy of no leave any time those game get played. Luckily enough they've been in different leagues for the last few years. No sane person would be in town when those games were played in either Newcastle or Sunderland.
Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out but Sky TV in the UK and Fox in the USA are owned by Rupert Murdoch so yes they can be :-)
No they are not owned by Murdoch. He started Sky TV, but sold it like 10 years ago.
This is not only persuading me to go to America and try these chants at an NFL game. But also made me realise Americans have an even smaller understanding of sarcasm than I thought.
7:48 'It wasn’t Savile it was Gary Neville'.... 'That one's kinda tame'.... Oh boy if you knew.
The 2nd one about Adam Johnson was recorded at The Union Rooms bar in the city centre of Newcastle upon Tyne and its a decent place for a pint. Also where i met my now wife on a blind date nearly 15 years ago. Fond memories 🤣🤣🤣
The toon fans are brutal! Howay the toon!!
Sure he was playing for city at the time
@@lizardo4569 nope, defs playing for scumberland
Oh FYI most opposition Goalkeepers get the fat chants no matter what their build, like a traditionally way of trying to put the opposing keeper off. A game I went to years ago, when the fans chanted “fatty give us a wave” at the keeper. He actually waved with a smirk.
I mean, there was that one bloke in the non league who was actually fat, like literally ate pasties during games, who then got let go
That "croy in a minute" is sooooo Brummie!
Never thought I'd hear the words "Poor Jimmy Saville" in 2024 😂😂
have a look at cheese rolling a once a year event held in the uk
I second this watch the cheese rolling and then realise that contrary to belief the rugby players at the bottom are not just there to stop them the idea is a full on rugby tackle
The cheese rolling is wild 😂
I was at a Hull City vs Millwall game and their fans started ripping out the seats to throw at us, along with a load of bottles 😂
"YOU'RE GETTING MAULED BY THE TIGERS" 🤣🤣 Well done on promotion tho 👍
I went to Burnley v Millwall they ripped out the seats and threw them but they were old wooden seats and mostly hit their own fans at the front 😂 different breed.
Eastern Europe : P A T H E T I C
When I first started going to matches back in the seventies and right through to the late nineties you had to plan how to avoid the violence. Of course if you were into that you could find it easily by entering the other teams 'manor' e.g. pubs, areas.. Going 'away' (meaning travelling to another ground ) was the highlight of the week, but with care. Sometimes, before the 'firms' became dominant it could be unavoidable particularly before segregation. I remember going to London games back in the eighties and the police would show you enamel pin badges inside their lapels of their uniforms supporting the home team and you knew it wasn't only the home fans you had to deal with. I have to admit if I had to do it all again I would: scary, funny, joyous and ugly but defiantly memorable. KRO.
A quid is a pound. A slapper is a loose woman. An Aston Villa fan is a Viler or wanker.
SOTV 💙
Excellent post, my experience of travelling with Newcastle in the 70s & 80s, as your Brum. I'll mention an evening game at St Andrews when we tormented David Speedie verbally all night, and he tormented us on the pitch.. We've all sha**ed ya wife Speedie 😁😝
Eta, happy fuckin days
They teach us to sing in unison young here, starts off in primary school assemblies with Christian hymns and eventually we graduate to sport chants 😂
Also only football separates fans because its so violate, but rugby has mixed seating and still chant like this
ty guys from uk
Great vlog guys, glad you like our U.K. humour. As far as JS goes it’s best to google him as YT won’t let comments on him, he wasn’t a nice guy! 👍
Yeah. Not a nice guy in the same way that the great fire of London was a bit warm...
"Wasn't a nice guy" I think you've just won the award for Understatement of the Year 🏆
@@bimbam2620 not a nice guy in the same way hitler was a bit of a naughty boy
Love the immediate “oh boy” like laughter you did for the first chant.
Any football game you'll hear similar chants it's all part of the day at the match , football is a passion here 🇬🇧✌️ nice video great reaction ,a quid is a pound so basically forty pound 👍
I find that there is a charming innocence about our cousins on the other side of pond
20:25 "so literally no one is safe from these chanting mobs" 😂😂😭😭👍👍
“Quid” is slang for the British Pound (£). It comes from the latin “quid pro quo” which means “this for that”.
The C word is very common in the UK, Americans do tell us that, to them its a bit shocking.
It's still shocking in the UK.
@@dixienormous2440 maybe in the south, up north its used as a vowel
They was singing about Ed Woodward the Manchester chairman because all the Manchester fans boycotted the game because of him.
If you came to the UK and started a chant to the tune of Sweet Carolina people would 100% join in.
Yep doesn't even have to be footie. Went to see britains strongest man in Feb and it was arm waves and everything when Sweet Caroline came on
Just a little one Sweet Caroline, is a well sang song during British sports started with boxing now sung at football too
