1-0 to the Arsenal

Stick your 2 pts up your arse

One minute one minute one minute.

The good old days.

Best opposition chant

Boring Boring

Sung by the Stoke fans after a 50 pass move that moved us two yards forward at the Britannia last season :evil: Summed us up perfectly

My absolute favourite has to be the Eduardo one though...

He came to us when Henry went, Eddie, Eddie,
He scored more goals than Darren Bent, Eddie, Eddie,
He broke his leg,
But he'll be back,
And Darren Bent will still be cack,
Eduardo Silva Arsenal's Number 9

Good Old Arsenal is always my favourite. Hairs on the back of the neck if sung at the write moment and not sung at break neck speed. Remember singing it to myself once when I was a nipper when we were drawing 0-0 with Sheffield Wednesday at home in about 1993 or 1994. I sung it to myself and whilst I was doing it Ian Wright popped up with a goal out of nothing to give us a 1-0 victory. At the time I firmly believed it was because I was singing that song. :barscarf:

For one of our players I always held a lot of love for 'We Love You Freddie', a brilliantly imaginative song. Love the build up with the da da da da da da da da before launching into an Andy Williams serenade. Also reminds me of days out in Cardiff and winning titles and doubles.

1. A Goal - it was on one of the cup final cd's (I think finbar wright sang it :? ) a few years back and wrighty sang a few lines in it and I have always thought it to be excellent. It mentions all the big trophies we had won up to that point and really emphasised the traditions of the club and I have always felt it should be the club anthem 8)

2. Vieira song

3. We love you freddie - I still remember the cup final v the chavs in cardiff when we belted that out all day especially when he brushed terry off like a fly and scored that goal 8) :barscarf:

I like it as its great seeing how a song has evolved and changed over the years.

"Who's that team they call...."
was a separate song in its own right but now its part of a much bigger song.

Also the last line of this part changed.
Used to be...(something like)
"Coz Arsenal are the team we all adore!"
to now
"Coz (insert current Sp*ds manager)'s mother is a whore!" :lol:

The most recent addition to this is the prolonged
"She's a whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrreeeeeee!
she's a Whhhoooorrrr-AAAAAAAAA-oooooooooore


There's even a few verses.
like "Does it up the shitter for a score.....for a SCCoooo-AAAAAA-re!" :lol:

If you think about it is 'super' song of about 3/4 song merged into one. 8)
Pissed in Paris in 06 we were singing "His mother is a maaaa-annnnnn". :D

Also heard a few Gooners singing "His boyfriend's only foo-oouuuurrr!" :shock:

For pure fun to sing:

Ten men went to bed
It should've been you
Samir you're a *word censored*

For significance;

She wore
You are my Arsenal
Que Sera Sera. If that doesnt count it's got to be Bejesus said Paddy.

1, the wanky tottenham hotspur (because my missus has sung this pissed in the pub)

2, she wore a yellow ribbon

3, the freddie song , reminds me of cup finals and when we were good and everything was rosey in the garden
Love these songs. 8) And "We love you Arsenal, we do". :barscarf:

Also love the "Number one is Perry Groves" song. It just brings back great memories of the morning after the CL final and my mates and I sitting in this little night workers cafe after being on the batter all night in Paris in 06. All these cops and whores and factory workers were there having a liitle something-something before they went home and the sun was just starting to come up.

One of our lads started with "Number One is Perry Groves" and then this voice from the far corner popped up with "Number Two is Perry Groves". Our crowd and this other crowd of Engerlish Gooners just stood up and sang the whole song as the locals all looked on. When we finished it the whores and cops etc all started clapping and cheering and chanting Allez Les Rouge (spelling?) and a few of them sent drinks over.

It was just a magical morning after the rollercoaster of emotions the night before. Just sitting there with my closest mates, nicely pissed and proud as fuck of the effort our players had put in.

And wonderfully, the image of my mate the doctor trying to fight off the attentions of the rancid 70 year old prossie that was all over him... :lol: :wink:
