Who are we to slag off everyone elses support?

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

It just makes us look like idiots when we've hardly got the loudest home support in the world. We never used to sing these idiotic songs but it doesn't matter who we play now, it doesn't matter how loud the fans are, we sing it.

Not to mention the fact that they're really boring songs.
We get it sung at us at every home game. What goes around, comes around.
I must have missed Barcelona singing this at the Emirates.

It's embarrassing shite.

I've never heard United or Liverpool fans sing them, yet you can guarantee it'll constantly get sang on Saturday at their fans.
Fluent spanish speaker are we :roll:

So we just use the "And it's Arsenal..." every time then? I for one love singing the ones that mock the enemy's support, even when I went to AG in either the clock end or east stand either side of the away end, I would try to get one going. Usually only two people would join in, but the rare occasion it does catch on, slightly :lol:

Mouser and Manure sing it at each others grounds.

And seriously, "Gazza" (where the fuck did you get that name on THIS forum?) if that's all you have to worry about then half your luck, buddy. :lol: :wink:

Our away support in particular is top class :barscarf: - made me proud to hear them over the racket at the Nou Camp.

We could do with some better chants 'though as well as singing
'B'Jesus' and 'Good Old Arsenal' more regularly.

I watched the game on Sunday. Mancs chanted "where's your famous atmosphere?" when they were quiet and then the mickeys sang "Fergie's right your fans are shite" when they went quiet. No nonsense like Shall we sing a song for you.

Have we ever actually sang a song for them? What does it even mean?

Utd and Liverpool actually make a point of not singing these songs.

And i've yet to hear a credible reason why we do.

It's not banter, it's just stupidity.
