NCFC_Edward 0 Posted May 4, 2009 Why not chant it?maybe if it wernt so much of a joke,and we were actually in the game,it wouldnt have been sung. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billabasblue 0 Posted May 4, 2009 That chant sums you lot up totally, no ambition from owner to players to fans, just happy to celebrate being garbage and becoming a third division side, you get the club you deserve because you are spineless! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]Live and let live eh? More to life than football and my money is hard earnt, so I''ll bloody well enjoy it how i want to...at 4-1 down and knowing that the result at Plymouth was not going our way, what were the alternatives? I''ve been all over the country with City all season and had some miserable days travelling back from poor results...Why not enjoy a last afternoon celebrating the commitment of a fantastic bunch of supporters, rather than dwelling on the dross that have turned out in our colours on the pitch for the last couple of years. Please put it into perspective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 0 Posted May 4, 2009 was it those little kids starting that again. hear that at every away game from them. 1 of em was snapped crying i think too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCFC_Shaun 0 Posted May 4, 2009 I have nothing wrong with anybody starting that. What I don''t agree with is stereotypical old gits who can''t wait to moan at anybody less than 18 years of age ...A group of lads started ''lets all have a disco'' in the pub, ab out the same time as I was trying to get out and make my way to the ground. Some older fans clearly didn''t like all the jumping about and pushing, so, just looked for the 1st typical youngster they could see as it was clearly them who are pushing and shoving. So, I got called a w***** by one of them, and another one of my mates as he tried to get out got pushed by them. Complete morons. We weren''t even anything to do with it.I''m sorry but that really p*ssed me off, the people doing ''lets all have a disco'' didn''t really annoy me, that''s up to them.

Jim Smith 2,314 Posted May 4, 2009 An utter joke. I thought in general our fans were good given the circumstances but I was speechless when those little idiots started singing that 5 minutes from the end. I told them all to shut up straight away and thankfully most of them did. Was started by the group of kids that try and strart it at every away game. On the one hand its good that these kids travel and watch us and create some noise but the problem is they have absolutely no sense of timing or feel for when it is or is not appropriate to sing certain songs. Yesterday was an example of that as has been the embarassing singing of "staying up,up,up" far too early in games when it was obvious to any seasoned City watchers that the team would go an screw it up and make them look stupid!

? 20 Posted May 4, 2009 Too many of the old fans are more interested in making martyrs of themselves than they are in making some noise and having a bit of fun.Because of course we''d have all had a much better day if we''d just sat there quietly whinging and moaning to the people next to us, eh?Get over yourselves.

I am not however prepared to stand there and see our fans dancing around singing "lets all have a disco" as we get relegated to the third tier of English football for the first time in my supporting lifetime without saying something about it. At the end of the day there is no etiquette but the best fans have always had a sense of timing (whether comic or otherwise) and a natural feel for when to sing certain chants. We seem to have lost that - not helped by the inability that some of our fans seem to have to clap at anything less than 100mph!Anyway not a time or day for Norwich fans to be falling out with each other - its not why we are where we are or why we went down is it! We all have more important things to worry about! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

? 20 Posted May 4, 2009 There''s still a group in the Snakepit who sing it properly Shaun, or try to, anyway. Problem is, it gets ''hijacked'' by the people on the Barclay side of the Snakepit, and they start it going quickly far too early.It''s rather irritating.

Alex11ncfc 0 Posted May 4, 2009 I went yesterday, I booed, I chanted board out, I was angry and upset by us going down, I was disgusted by the lack of any passion by the players, but in the end it became so unbelieveable that it did just become a joke! So from there fans start to think well if they are going to be like that well we might as well do that. I was chanting all that, but it wasn''t started by "kids" but full grown adults near me, but f course blame it on all of us who are under the age of 18 because we won''t say as much, or we are not "developed" in some way mentally? I didn''t clap the team after I booed but because I decided to think f*ck it I may as well not get too depressed relegation is now my fault as well as those who did that chant.
