When did we stop singing…

sam3110 said:

We barely sing at all, and when we do it's at a million miles an hour and a random song, like the most frequent chant this season was for "Elliott Lee, Elliott Lee, the most mediocre player, you ever did see"

We have a soulless squad right now, a soulless atmosphere, no manager and a seemingly out of touch, slightly cringey owner

The atmosphere in covered end and away games is great particularly considering the dross on the pitch.

In fact despite our demise over past decade I've noted we've picked up more of a younger following that we perhaps lost for a bit when away from the valley.

Give us a C........

I think he was suggesting some of their old hits but I don't imagine 'Sweet Evil Woman' or 'Mr Blue Sky' catching on. 'Turn to Stone' would have quite pertinently described some of our players this season however.

If you’ve heard my voice, you’d know I never even started singing.

Oh, it would be perfect for George Dobson.
Might have trouble making his name scan though.

Works perfectly if you make it George DobSON instead of the usual pronunciation of DOBson.

Can we please stop singing that France '98 chant after we've scored a goal?

also remeber other versions along the lines of: 

we all agree Asda is better than Sainsburys

We all agree we're gonna give Millwall a thrashing

Its all Ultra shit now, and we have the front to take the piss out of Palace.

One of big hates in modern football. Sitting near the away fans at The Valley you hear the same songs every week. Just different words.

Always hated the what do you think of Millwall, what you think s*** Millwall song.

We have plenty of more original chants about them. For example turning cold blown lane into a public lavatory. 

Before the Donny play-off game me, my brother and a mate were on a particularly raucous train from London Bridge to Charlton. Loads of singing, great atmosphere. We started "they're turning cold blow lane..." song and the carriage went silent! No one knew what the fuck we were on about. A lot of the youngsters probably don't even know what/where CBL is! They got into it by the end though, obviously haha!

Goodbye Horse is my personal favourite

Goodbye horse, goodbye horse, saying goodbye to his horse.
And as he was saying goodbye to his horse, saying goodbye to his horse!

Never looked at the history from that song.! What made us start chanting that? 

Way before my time but i think it was from Brighton away in the 70s

La la la Barry Endean

Show them the way to go home
They’re tired and they want to go to bed
Cos they’ve only half a football team
And the rest are f…ing dead

I’m taking credit for that. Long midweek train journey back from Oldham or Sheff Utd or something and I’d just watched Jaws the weekend before. Floated it on the train and the rest is history.

Is it ‘ki’ ? Thought it was more like ‘yippy-i-a ... yippy-a-o’ ? 

Unless Bruce Willis is an F Block ST holder.
