Spurs v Spanners

What about football chants, especially those led by a drummer? I really do think the problem here is that anything that punctures the expected front of male aggression and triumphalism makes your average British bloke feel a trifle insecure. What if Charlton practiced a celebration where they pretend to beat the shit out of the goalscorer? You'd all be in seventh heaven.Algarveaddick said:
I think it is because in Britain we have traditionally been quite laid back and conservative when it comes to showing emotion. When we do, it is spontaneous, not rehearsed. The same reason that training-ground-practised-celebrations and "Ultra" style flag waving and some bloke orchestrating other supporters with a megaphone, and not watching a kick, does not sit well with most people.1StevieG said:

It'll be nice if they can lose by a greater score than Lincoln lost by yesterday0

Hopefully they get kept back after the game for at least an hour just to compound their misery1

I remember Jason Euell and Chris Bart Williams had some dance move they had when scoring a goal. Just a bit of fun and makes a change from someone pretending to machine gun the crowd or knee slide.Algarveaddick said:

Replace the words 'pretend to' and 'goal scorer' with 'actually' and 'owner' and I think you're on to something.Leuth said:

The gulf in class is outrageous. Millwall genuinely look like a non league team caught in the headlights, and not a top non league team either.
I genuinely can't remember watching a more one sided match0 -
Especially as no replays in the quarter finals.Indianaaddick said:Millwall coming on here I can see a replay at the Den. Not!!!haha

I don't think my thoughts quite suggested that Leuth. Personally I am not keen on the drum either. Again, it lacks spontaniety, in my eyes. Perhaps it's an age thing, chants have always been part of my 40+ years as a supporter so I don't see them as some kind of aggression. Maybe someone from the thirties where it was all a bit Chumleigh-Warner, and we all applauded the jolly good sportsmanship of the plucky opposition and shared woodbines in mixed crowds, would not see it that way at all. I for one don't feel insecure when I see a fancy handshake between two blokes I am never going to meet taking place 1000 miles away...Leuth said:

Mind you in our record breaking promotion season 2011/12 we got torn a new one by Fulham at the Cottage so there is a massive gap in class for sure.AFKABartram said:The gulf in class is outrageous.

Annoyed that Spurs have taken their foot off...0
